Let's do it.
Let's explore four questions that can help you can help.
You can help guide you toward a more meaningful and fulfilling life.
First, What do you love?
What do you love?
What do you, what do you, what do you, what do you, what do you love?
Consider what activities make you feel truly alive.
What makes you feel truly alive?
What are the activities that make you feel truly alive?
Whether it's drawing, cooking, teaching, helping others, or creating something new.
It can be anything.
What is it that makes you feel alive?
When you're engaged in them, when you're engaged in them, when you're busy doing them, time seems to fly and your heart feels lighter.
That's love.
You love doing what you're doing.
That's what it's like when you love what you're doing.
When you're engaged in it, you're just busy, you're in the moment.
Time flies.
Time seems to fly.
Second, what are you good at?
What are you?
What are you good at?
Everyone has a unique gift.
Everyone's good at something.
What's your unique gift?
You don't have to be the very best at it.
You're just good at it yourself.
Perhaps you're a great listener. a loyal friend, or an adept problem solver.
Adept.
You're an adept problem solver.
What is adept?
That's just skillful, talented.
Even small talents can shine when nurtured with care.
When you give it proper care, when you nurture it, you give it proper care.
So even small talents can be wonderful.
They can shine.
Maybe your community needs more kindness, healthier food options, cleaner spaces or simply hope you can give your community more kindness, healthier food options, cleaner spaces or simply hope.
The world needs caring people, and you could be one of them.
Fourth, What can you earn an income from?
What can you make money doing?
If you can make money doing it, that's better, right?
You need money in this world.
Following your purpose matters, but we all need to support ourselves, right?
Yes we do.
When your passion and your work intersect, true fulfillment starts to grow.
When your passion and your work come together intersect.
That's when true fulfillment starts to grow.
For instance, a young woman named Clara loved teaching children.
After school, she began helping local kids learn English.
Soon, parents started paying her small fees.
Parents started paying her small fees.
They started to pay her for her English lessons.
She didn't become wealthy, but she found real happiness.
When love skill, service and support come together, They pave the way to a more meaningful and fulfilling life.
They pave the way, they create a path to experience a more meaningful and fulfilling life.
Yeah, so what you love, what you're good at, the service you can provide, all these things come together.
Imagine a circle divided into four parts.
Okay, four circles.
One, two, three, four.
Four circles.
What you love, what you're good at, what the world needs, and what you can be paid for.
Those are the four circles.
What you love, what you're good at, what the world needs, and what you can be paid for.
Each part matters, but the real magic happens the center, right there, at the center of all those four circles, there's the four circles and at the center where they all overlap.
Where they overlap they, they are on top of each other.
Okay, so loving something you can't make a living from can cause stress.
Oh, loving something you can't make a living from can cause stress.
Doing work just for the money without any passion can feel empty.
So these are the opposite of each other, right?
So loving something you can't make a living from causes stress.
And on the opposite side of that, doing work just for the money without any passion can feel empty.
Helping others while neglecting your own needs leaves you drained.
Leaves you drained.
It tires you out.
It wears you out.
It makes you exhausted.
So helping others while neglecting your own needs.
While neglecting your own needs is failing to look after, not taking care of what's important for you your needs.
But when all these areas connect, you find real peace.
Take Scott, a carpenter from Los Angeles.
For years he quietly built furniture in his small shop until one day He invited local teens to learn the craft with him.
Together they learned not just woodworking skills, but also patience and how to create something meaningful.
He wasn't just making tables anymore.
He was helping build stronger, more confident people.
That's the true center of his circle.
He found the center of his circle.
The center of this circle is your true home where love, skill, purpose, and peace come together.
Living from this center makes each day feel lighter.
Wouldn't it be nice?
I know not all of us can find that center, but you can try and get as close as you can, right?
Sometimes it's a little difficult, but try to get as close as you can to that center and it will make each day feel lighter.
So don't stay stuck in one corner of life.
Don't choose only money or only passion.
Live at the center where your work, your joy, and your purpose unite.
That's where your best life begins to shine.
And that's it.
That's our message and our English speaking practice today.
