Easy English Expression, rehashed.
Hello everybody, my name is Coach Shane and welcome to Easy English Expressions.
Come on, let's master English.
Hi everyone, Constance here.
How you doing today?
We've got another E-Cubed podcast, number 269.
Enjoy.
Let's go back in time.
Today's expression is stay ahead of the game.
Stay ahead of the game.
This is a great expression.
It's good advice too.
Stay, S-T-A-Y, ahead.
A-H-E-A-D.
Stay ahead of the game.
If we say it fast, stay ahead of the, ahead of the, the of, the V sound disappears.
Stay ahead of the game.
Ahead of the game.
Ahead of the game.
Stay ahead of the game.
So what does this mean?
A game?
Stay ahead?
Hmm.
Well, I'll tell you what.
Right now, in my DDM classes.
DDM classes, that's my listening class.
Those are almost, most of the students are 30s, 40s, 50s.
Lots of professionals.
Professors, doctors, business people, engineers, doctors.
That's who most of the DDM students are.
But recently, I have three new students.
Two of them are in high school, and one of them is in middle school.
So I was surprised, because you know DDM is fun but it's a little bit different than you know school grammar school, English.
So I asked them, each of the students, why did you join DDM?
And they told me that when they graduate high school, they don't want to be good at English.
They want to be number one.
They want to be ahead of everybody else.
Right now in their schools, there's a lot of competition and they want to be number one.
So that's why they joined DDM.
I guarantee that those three are absolutely not only going to be number one, but if you have that type of thinking now, you will always stay ahead of the game.
You will be ahead of the competition.
You will be a leader.
That's the idea, everybody.
Stay ahead of the game.
Let's check out a dialogue.
You are such a smart investor.
Well, I try to stay ahead of the game.
But how?
Do you know powerful people?
No, I watch business trends closely.
Some people, when it comes to investing money, buying stocks, selling stocks, they're geniuses.
In America, we have the guy Warren Buffett.
Oh my goodness, he's a genius investor.
He somehow, I don't know how he does it.
He watches business trends, what's popular in business, how businesses are going.
But he stays ahead of the game.
That's for sure.
The same thing at your company.
If you want to get the promotion, if you want to get the project, you need to stay ahead of the game.
You need to have the information before other people.
How do you do that?
How can you do that?
It seems impossible.
No, it's not impossible.
You just need to work harder.
I know it sounds crazy, but it's true.
To stay ahead of the game.
I don't know, maybe in some areas it's difficult.
But I think in almost every area, you can find a way to get ahead of your competition.
To stay ahead of the game.
If you don't know how to do it, well, let's help each other.
Use our community.
The community name is Let's Master English.

How can I stay ahead of the game?
How can I stay ahead of the game?
And hopefully somebody will give you some good advice.
Maybe I will.
If I have an idea, absolutely, I will help you.
I will help you to stay ahead of the game.
When it comes to English.
If you want to improve, if you want to be better than the people around you, you got to work.
And hey, Coach Shane, that's me.
I'm here to help you.
You stay ahead of the game.
Let's check out the dialogue two more times.
