What Einstein Can Teach You About Learning English

Gabby: This is an All Ears English Podcast, Episode 12: Deep Thoughts Thursday.

Gabby: Welcome to the All Ears English Podcast, where you’ll finally get real native English conversation. Now here are your hosts, Lindsay McMahon, the ‘English Adventurer’ and Gabby Wallace, the ‘Language Angel’, coming to you from Boston, Massachusetts, USA.

In today’s episode, you’ll learn what Ein – Albert Einstein and Michael Jordan can teach you and us about learning English.

Lindsay: Okay guys, so we want to share a great quote with you that we think is pretty inspiring and we hope it’s inspiring for you as well. So here’s the quote. It’s by Albert Einstein who has some interesting quotes: “Anyone who has never made a mistake has never tried anything new.” Gabby: I love that quote.

Lindsay: Yeah.

Gabby: It means it’s necessary to make mistakes in order to achieve something.

Right?

Lindsay: Definitely.

Gabby: There’s a similar quote from, I think, Michael Jordan. Um, something about how he’s made – I don’t know, like thousands and thousands of missed shots.

Lindsay: Yeah. That’s a good one.

Gabby: Maybe he’s made hundreds of, of baskets, but like, how many has he actually missed. Thousands.

Lindsay: Thousands.

Gabby: So keep that in mind when you’re studying English and aim to make a mistake. I mean I think – Lindsay, you said something the other day, “Today is a perfect day, a wonderful day…”

Lindsay: Oh right.

Gabby: “…to make a mistake.”

Lindsay: It’s the perfect for a mistake. And we, we have a – I have an interesting link to a video that maybe we’ll share in the, in the notes… Gabby: Absolutely.

Lindsay: …on the blog to watch a video about the importance of making mistakes and it just reminds me, just to give an example. When I was learning to ski as a kid, my dad would always tell me – you know, once in a while I’d say, “Oh, I’m so happy I didn’t fall today,” and my dad would say, “What? You didn’t fall? That’s terrible.” Because if you’re not falling, then you’re not learning, you’re not getting better.

Gabby: You’re not pushing yourself…

Lindsay: Yeah.

Gabby: …to try something new, harder.

Lindsay: Yeah, so…

Gabby: That’s great. Yeah. I think it’s a great goal to get out there and make a mistake and good things can happen from that. So Lindsay mentioned that we’ll share a video on the blog, so you can find our blog or our website at www.allearsenglish.com.
