Merry Christmas guys,
welcome to E-mail Picks. By the time you
0:00:08.820,0:00:13.200
watch this video, I'm gonna be on winter
vacation in Yamagata Prefecture
0:00:13.200,0:00:18.390
with my son, playing in the snow. So
writing e-mails would be the last thing
0:00:18.390,0:00:21.720
I'll be thinking about. So today, I'm
just gonna stand around here and talk
0:00:21.720,0:00:27.779
about my year. This year, I spoke at like
two to five seminars every month, so I
0:00:27.779,0:00:33.000
had a total of close to 40 seminars this
year. It was physically very hard and I
0:00:33.000,0:00:37.829
had to deliver the same content over and
over again. So of course I don't get
0:00:37.829,0:00:43.140
nervous in front of people anymore, and I
don't even have to worry about what I
0:00:43.140,0:00:50.370
need to say next, because my mouth remembers what I need to say. So I realized I could
0:00:50.370,0:00:57.440
focus more on making people laugh. Trying to make people and trying to help people have a good time.
0:00:57.440,0:01:02.760
I've been watching a lot of stand-up
comedy on YouTube these days, especially
0:01:02.760,0:01:08.070
those of non-native English speakers.
There are many non-native stand-up
0:01:08.070,0:01:12.750
comedians who are getting really popular
these days. So now I have a favorite male
0:01:12.750,0:01:18.240
comedian and a female comedian from India;
I have a favorite comedian from Finland;
0:01:18.240,0:01:23.580
I even have a favorite female stand-up
comedian from Japan. They're all really
0:01:23.580,0:01:28.950
funny and they all use very simple
English so that they can help many
0:01:28.950,0:01:32.970
people understand. So I learned a lot
from them about speaking in front of
0:01:32.970,0:01:37.439
people and helping them have a good time. And luckily, I had a lot of chances to
0:01:37.439,0:01:42.140
apply what I had learned this year. So
watching people who are good at doing
0:01:42.140,0:01:46.190
something and then apply what you had
learned from them through practicing
0:01:46.190,0:01:51.530
many many times is the way to acquire a
new skill. So if you want to get better
0:01:51.530,0:01:56.600
at handling meetings, watch a colleague
who is good at having meetings and copy
0:01:56.600,0:02:01.340
what you saw in your own English
meetings. And if you want to get better
0:02:01.340,0:02:07.369
at writing e-mails, watch E-mail Picks and
copy what you saw in your own English
0:02:07.369,0:02:12.260
emails. So next year, I hope I can help
you with not just e-mails but many
0:02:12.260,0:02:16.970
different types of communication. But
let's not think about work now. Enjoy your
0:02:16.970,0:02:20.120
holidays and have a Merry Christmas and
a Happy New Year.
0:02:20.120,0:02:22.750
See you guys.
