Emotional Mastery Main Text

Automatic English For The People Emotional Mastery Main Text Okay, welcome to the main audio for "Emotional Mastery." So let's talk about emotional mastery in more detail now. How can you manage your emotions, how can you control, I don't like the word control, but let's just say manage your emotions so that you feel better and stronger while you're learning English. So it's easy to say that "Oh, feel good when you're learning English," but unfortunately a lot of people feel bad when they're learning English. A lot of people feel bored. Or maybe just in your life in general, you're tired, you're working hard, and it's difficult to learn English also and still feel energetic and happy. So we have to learn some techniques, some methods to manage our emotions, to make sure our emotions are feeling strong while we're learning. And remember, again, that emotion and psychology are 80% of success. And a lot of people talk about this in the academic world. Dr. Stephen Krashen, again he's the top expert on language acquisition, language learning and language education, and he talks about this idea of non-linguistic factors. Which basically means psychological and emotional factors, that they're more important than the method you're using. Tony Robbins, the famous peak performance coach, talks about this as well. He says directly success comes from emotion, 80% of success is emotion. The other 20% is the method, it's how you do it. So we've got to master our emotions to master English. How are you going to do to that? Let's talk about that now. There are two keys to emotional mastery. One is your physiology, again it's your body, how you use and manage your body. And second is your focus, your mental focus. Now a lot of this comes from again Tony Robbins and Joe Vitale and some other peak performance coaches so l'm using their information and I'm applying it, I'm focusing it on this process of learning English and how can you take those ideas and use them to increase your English learning power, so you learn faster, so that you speak better. So again we have two ways to manage our emotions. One is physiology, through the body. And the other is through focus, mental focus. What you think about again and again and again. In this lesson we're going to talk about physiology, managing physiology. So this is an easy way to change your emotional state. So let's imagine that you are tired. You've gone to work, you've worked a very long day. You're tired. And you're thinking "I don't want to study English." How can you change that feeling? Well you can try to talk to yourself "Oh, should study, should study, should feel better," but usually that doesn't work, right? Usually you still feel tired. What you have to do is start with your body. Change your body. What does your body look like when you're tired?
