我们先谈谈原因,我的意思是,为什么在工作中向你的老板、同事或外部客户展示你对某事感到自豪是很重要的?为什么?
It shows a sense of confidence. I think that's important. It shows that you are that you care. Also so, it shows your confident. It shows you care. I'm trying to think of another C. I just should all C words come together. And it helps you connect.
这显示了一种自信。我认为这很重要。它表明你在乎,也显示了你的自信,表明你在乎,我在想另一个C开头的单词。我觉得把C开头的放在一起更能帮助你联系起来。
No, but it is a little bit of self-awareness as well and just showing what makes you feel alive. What do you think, Lindsey?
不,但这也是一种自我意识,展示了什么让你感觉到活着的意义。你怎么看,林赛?
Yeah, and I also think that we spend what 40 hours of our lives at work a week and that's a big deal. It's probably more hours than we sleep, you know.
是的,我也认为我们每周在工作上花费40个小时,这是一件大事。你知道,这可能比我们睡觉的时间还多。
And it matters that we want to make sure that we're proud of what we're doing.
而且重要的是,我们要保证我们为自己正在做的事情感到自豪。
And if we're not, maybe that's a sign that we want to find a better scenario if we're able to work wise because it's a big chunk of our lives that we spend at work.
如果我们不是这样,也许这是一个信号,表明我们想要找到一个更好的,能够很好的工作的地方,因为工作时间占用了了我们生活中的很大一部分。
Oh, right, yes, a very big chunk, so we want to be able to celebrate those things that we're proud of as well. Yeah, so we're gonna show you guys how to do it.
哦,对,是的,很大一部分,所以我们也想能够庆祝那些我们引以为傲的事情。是的,所以我们要向你们展示怎么去做。
But you know, obviously context matters here who's around you taking into account that you've worked with people on a team to create a result.
但你知道,考虑到你是与团队中的人一起工作才取得的成果,周围的人对你来说显然很重要。
It hasn't just been your work most of the time, right? Those are all things we want to think about.
这并不只是你大部分时间的工作,对吧?这些都是我们想要思考的事情。
Go into these phrases. Yes, and I just want to say this is also good for sharing what you're proud of that somebody else did.
看看这些短语,是的,我只是想说,这也有利于表达你为别人所做的事情感到骄傲。
So, this is good for teamwork as well, which we all want to be good at team players at work. It's very important.
所以,这对团队合作也有好处,我们都希望在工作中成为优秀的团队成员。这非常重要。
Yeah, especially if we're doing business in another culture, like if you're from the US and you get relocated to Japan. And you start saying I'm so proud of this.
是的,尤其是如果我们在另一种文化环境下做生意,比如你来自美国,然后你被调到日本。然后你开始说我I'm so proud of this
I'm so proud of that it may not fit in as well culturally, in a culture that's more focused on the team coming together and having done that work, that might be really weird if you start saying things like that, but in the US it'd be a little more in the norm.
I'm so proud of this,可能在文化上不太合适,在一个更注重团队合作并完成工作的文化中,如果你开始这样说,可能会非常奇怪,但在美国,这会更正常一些。
I've done this. I've created this, I've moved the needle forward on this, right?
我已经做到了。我创造了这个,我推动了这个,对吗?
So things to think about for sure. Definitely. So alright, let's get into it. So what's the first one, Lindsay?
所以要好好想想。 好了,我们开始吧。第一个是什么,林赛?
I'm really proud of X, So for example, this is the most straightforward one.
我真的为某事感到骄傲,举个例子,这是最直接的一个。
Really proud of the progress we've made with this account.
我真的为我们账户上的成绩感到骄傲。
Yeah, I actually like the word proud because it adds a little like emotion to what you're saying.
是的,我其实挺喜欢“proud”这个词的,因为它给你所说的话增添了一点情感色彩。
Like if you say something a little more tame down like I'm pleased with X, it kind of dulls out the emotion. I don't love that pleased.
就像如果你说一些更温和的话,比如我对X很满意,这就有点淡化了这种情感。我不喜欢那种满意。
I'm pleased with all that we're and there is a time to dull out the emotion, but I think the proud shows your humanness a little more like it's more something like a kid could say, a teenager could say, an adult at work could say right?
我对我们所做的一切都很满意,有时候需要淡化一下情绪,但我认为 proud更有人情味,这更像是一个孩子、一个青少年、一个工作中的成年人会说的话,对吧?
Yeah, you know what I mean exactly, yeah exactly.
是的,你完全明白我的意思,是的,完全明白。
Well, here's another one, you might like Lindsay to take pride in something, so we take pride in our X, so this is an interesting one we'll talk about in a second.
嗯,这里还有一个,林赛为某事感到自豪,我们为我们的什么感到自豪,所以这是一个有趣的问题,我们稍后会讨论。
So here at katie's Coffee we take pride in our ability to create unique coffee flavors for everyone to enjoy.
因此,在凯蒂咖啡,我们为自己能够为每个人创造独特的咖啡口味而感到自豪。
How is this a little bit different if you say we take pride in something, this is definitely more corporatey mission statement ish right?
如果说we take pride in something ,这有什么不同呢?这肯定更像是公司的使命宣言,对吧?
I agree, this is something that you would hear on a PR release, a public relations release, or a newspaper interview, but if I'm sitting down and talking to my friend hey, I just opened a coffee shop, I probably wouldn't say we take pride in. Right, right, right, no coffee.
我同意,这是你会在公关新闻稿、公共关系新闻稿或报纸采访中听到的,但如果我坐下来和我的朋友聊天,嘿,我刚开了个咖啡店,我可能不会说 take pride in。对,对,不会。
Yeah, it even sounds to me like it could be in a commercial here at katie's Coffee.
是的,在我听来,它甚至可以用在凯蒂咖啡的广告里。
We take pride in us, come on over today and get the smell of the coffee, you know.
我们为自己感到自豪,今天就过来闻闻咖啡的香味吧。
No no. What you would say to your friend is I'm so proud that we're finally opening our doors next week at katie's Coffee, right?
你会对你的朋友说,我很自豪我们下周终于要在凯蒂咖啡开业了,对吧?
That's what I'm saying like there's more emotion, there's more humanness, right?
这就是我所说的,就像有更多的情感,更有人情味,对吧?
Exactly, you could say, Oh, I'm really, I'm really proud of this place because we make these unique coffee flavors. Right? Exactly.
没错,你可以说,哦,我真的,我真的为这个地方感到骄傲,因为我们制作了这些独特的咖啡口味。对吧?没错。
We take pride in is a little bit more formal, a little bit more corporate.
“We take pride in” 更正式一点,更企业化一点。
Yeah, and we're gonna take a quick break and then we're gonna get into the 2 next ones here. I'm excited for these. Here we go. Okay, all right, Michelle here's lizzy's favorite.
是的,我们要稍作休息,然后我们要进入第二部分。I'm excited for these。我们开始吧。好的,好的,米歇尔,这是莉齐最喜欢的。
Yeah, I think the next 2 what we're getting into the zone we're getting into now. Michelle is the Linkin humble brag zone.
是啊,我觉得接下来第二个, 我们现在谈论的,米歇尔在领英的humble brag zone.。
