113. Young Men Are Desperate - Fr. Michael Butler

We’re diving into the toxic mindset that stops so many of my Latino friends from learning to speak English proficiently. I’m going to talk about cultural stigmas, mental rigidity, self-esteem, and how all of these things have a major influence on your ability to learn and grow as an English speaker (and a human being). If you can make the corrections that I suggest in this episode, you’ll be putting yourself on the path to proficiency in this language. You’ll realize that no matter what goal you’re trying to achieve, it all starts with having the proper mindset!Timestamps:0:00The Latino Mindset1:46 Episode overview3:53 Cultural pressure and social mindset12:28 The Flexible Mind (by Robert Greene)20:35 The importance of practice24:43 Judgement from peersIf you love this podcast and want to show some support, click here 👉 https://patreon.com/realenglishradio Hosted on Acast.
