今天的练习内容来自Steve Pavlina，叫Inspiration。这篇是把灵感或启发的来源比喻成广播信号，把自己比喻成收音机。离“现实”有点远，但有时候这样的比喻能够帮助，写的也好玩，如果仔细看会发现在强调自己的主动角色，也在强调focus的重要性。
Have fun!
John

Inspiration
By Steve Pavlina
Ask yourself, “What is the inspiration of this moment? What am I inspired to do now? What is the next wave of energy?”
Pause and listen for a moment, but not with your ears. Listen like a radio antenna listens for a radio signal. When you catch the edge of the signal, tune into its frequency. Let it become stronger, louder, clearer, just as you might manually tune an analog radio dial.
Recognize that you’re an analog being too. You don’t simply press a button and lock into inspiration immediately. You have to tune into the signal.
You may perceive multiple signals vying for your attention. Feel free to float the dial to listen to one for a bit, then another. Pick your favorite just as you’d pick a radio station. You may like several different stations, but it only makes sense to listen to one at a time. Setting your dial between two different stations would only give you static. You can always listen to different stations later.
As you begin to sense a stronger lock, let the signal’s energy flow through you. Let it create oscillations in your mind, your heart, your body. Let it infect you completely. Enjoy the feeling. Recognize how easy it is.
Then when you feel the energy is strong enough, let that signal animate you. Let it flow into easy, effortless, energized action.
Ride the inspiration like a surfer rides a wave. There’s no need to paddle. The wave will carry you all the way to the shore.
You may find yourself flowing into action for many hours at a stretch. Time will pass, but you’ll scarcely be aware of its passing. You’ll be too mesmerized by timelessness to notice the clock. Stay with the signal as long as you can, till your batteries run low and you must disconnect to recharge.
These signals are always broadcasting 24/7. Perhaps they come from the collective consciousness of humanity. Perhaps they come from somewhere else.
If you learn to tune into these signals and ride their waves of energy, you’ll never run out of inspiration. You’ll never be at a loss for what to do next. You’ll never suffer from writer’s block.
Unless you forget how to use your radio, that is.
But who forgets a thing like that? 🙂

什么是清晨朗读会？
这里就是清晨朗读会。我每天早上6点左右发送可以模仿和朗读的材料，包括语音和文本。希望我们能够每天一起练习。
如何使用此练习材料
较理想的状态
先听一遍我读的语音
再听一遍，这次跟着模仿（听不懂你模仿的没关系，跟不上也没关系，就尽量模仿你听到的音！）
朗读一遍原文
这个时候才花点时间查不懂的内容（但查询的时间不要超过总练习时间的三分之一！）
1-3步骤再重复2－3遍
发到朋友圈里，告诉朋友你今天练了英语！（对我来讲，日常的转发与分享是最大的支持和帮助，提前感谢！）
起码要达到的状态
听一遍
跟着模仿一遍
朗读一遍
注意⚠️：听的时候最好不要看原文，听不懂100％没关系，你要是能听得懂100％那还学什么？
王渊源John是谁?
我的中文名字叫王渊源，英文名字叫John Gordon，是个美国人，在中国呆了十几年了，从事了14年的英文教育工作，接触过好几十万中国同学。让我一直很困惑的一件事情是很多中国朋友学了很长时间的英文，但并没有一个很好的学习效果。而我知道语言学习并不是那么神秘的事情，只要坚持一些简单的事情，就能够学会。我希望我能够帮助大家解决动力问题、方法问题以及材料问题。（更正式的介绍可以回复“王渊源”）
欢迎通过其他平台联系我：喜马拉雅、新浪微博、分答、在行上搜索“王渊源John”
