We're gonna take a look at these vocabulary words at the bottom.

我們將看看這些詞彙 底部的單詞。

The first one is checks and balances.

第一個是製衡。

This is an idiom, as you can imagine, about balance.

可以想像，這是一個成語 平衡。

If you make mistakes in English, and you feel really bad, you just feel devastated, and

如果你用英語犯了錯誤，你會感到 真的很糟糕，您只是感到毀滅，

think about it the next day, you think about it the next night, you can't sleep, that's

考慮第二天，你想 第二天晚上，你無法入睡，那就是

really negative.

真的很消極。

That's not gonna help your mindset.

那不會幫助你的心態。

That's one extreme.

那是一個極端。

The other extreme is that you don't really care about improving.

另一個極端是你不是真的 關心改善。

You say, "Oh, I can say my name.

您說：“哦，我可以說出我的名字。

I can talk about the weather.

我可以談談天氣。

That's all.

就這樣。

I don't need any more."

我不需要了。”

But, if you wanna improve, you're gonna have to be in the middle somewhere.

但是，如果您想改善，您將擁有 在某個地方的中間

You can't be too extreme on one side or the other.

您不能在一側過於極端， 其他。

You can't be negative.

你不能否定。

You can't be completely positive.

So that's the expression that Chris used, "checks and balances."

or someone who is the only person in control.

So he needs checks and balances.

但是在這裡，我們談論的是思想觀念 你不想太消極。

You don't wanna be too positive.

你不想太積極。

You need to be in the middle.

他說：“一方面，我做得很好。

And on the other side, you're not doing good enough."

另一方面，你做得不好 足夠。”

And, if you have any questions about doing good enough, here we see that this is, you're

而且，如果您對這樣做有任何疑問 足夠好，在這裡我們看到的是，你是

doing it well, but it's just not enough.

做得好，但這還不夠。

It's not acceptable.

不可以

So, you need to balance that in your mind.

因此，您需要平衡自己的想法。

"I'm doing a good job," you can use the third expression.

就像我在這裡寫的那樣，這意味著您正在工作 努力，但這還遠遠不夠。

It's never good enough.

永遠都不夠好。

So, of course, it's good to always be working and always be trying to improve.

因此，當然，一直努力是一件好事 並一直在努力改善。

But, at the same time, you have to be satisfied with your progress.

但是，與此同時，您必須感到滿意 隨著你的進步。
