Hi, this is A .J.
2
Hogue, and this is the commentary for what is success.
3
I want to talk a little bit about this question, what is success?
4
Now, that's a big question, and there are many, many different answers.
5
So let's talk only about financial success, okay, because success can have many different parts, right?
6
Emotion means, you know, our feelings.
7
To be successful, I think you need to be happy most of the time.
8
If you're very unhappy, in my opinion, you're not successful.
9
But anyway, those are more difficult questions to answer about the total idea of success.
10
So let's talk only about money, okay, financial success.
11
Let's keep this simple.
12
So what is financial success?
13
In this article, we talk about the idea of cash flow and the idea of financial freedom, financial flexibility.
14
And those are very important ideas.
15
uh many people do understand these ideas but many people don't
16
or they understand them but they don't take action
17
and you know action is the important part you have to
18
number one you have to know what to do right you need knowledge you need information
19
but number two you have to do what you know.
20
It means you have the information, you know, but that's not enough.
21
You need action and you need action every day, not just one time.
22
So this idea of financial freedom, of financial success, most people,
23
I think, imagine that more money, more money, more money means financial success.
24
If you have a big, expensive house, if you have a big,
25
expensive car, if you make a lot of money from your job or your business,
26
most people think, well, that is financial success.
27
I don't.
28
I don't.
29
I think that that can be financial success.
30
It depends on other things.
31
But I don't really think that's the key.
32
I think that cash flow, freedom, and control equal financial success.
33
Cash flow means you have more money coming in every month than you spend.
34
You make more than you spend.
35
The bigger that gap, the bigger the amount coming in, and the smaller the amount leaving,
36
means more and more financial success. And why is that?
37
It's because you have more freedom, more flexibility.
38
And that's the next part.
39
It means you have choices.
40
You have financial choices.
41
It means you don't need to worry about emergencies.
42
If you get sick, no problem.
43
You have big cash flow, right?
44
You have big positive cash flow.
45
You have a lot of money saved.
46
If you have an emergency, no stress, no worry.
47
If your cash flow is negative or just even,
48
right, the same coming in the same going out then an emergency is a big problem it's very stressful even
49
if you're rich even if a lot of money's coming in if the same amount is leaving every month
50
and suddenly you have a big bill unexpected a surprise bill that's going to be a big stress
51
another situation if you have negative cash flow it means you're borrowing money right maybe you're using credit cards
52
or maybe you're using a loan from the bank but anyway
53
if you're spending more than you're making and suddenly your income goes down maybe you lose your job
54
Maybe your business goes down a little bit.
55
If your cash flow is even or negative, you're going to be super stressed.
56
You're going to be worried.
57
You're going to have a big, big problem.
58
If you have very positive cash flow and you're saving a lot of money,
59
then that situation is not so bad.
60
If you lose your job, it's not good, but you have time to find another job, right? you have a lot of savings
61
so you can relax a little bit i'm okay i have time to find a new job
62
or if your business goes down again it's not good
63
but you have time to find a new way to make
64
money you can think okay i need to bring my business up again you have time to find a solution
65
if you have positive cash flow every month, if you are saving money every month.
66
So that's very important.
67
And the last part for me of financial success is control.
68
It means you control your money.
69
Other people don't control it.
70
So if you have a lot of money saved, you have control.
71
You can quit your job if you're unhappy.
72
You can change your business if you're unhappy or you don't like it, right?
73
Your decision.
74
You control that.
75
If you don't have positive cash flow, if you don't have a lot of money saved every month,
76
then someone else controls you.
77
You're afraid to lose your job.
78
You're afraid to quit.
79
and when you're afraid to quit the boss can treat you very badly right you're afraid to lose your job
80
so even if it's a very bad job you'll keep doing it not
81
because you like it because you have negative cash flow
82
because you must keep the job you need the money every
83
month every month every month you don't have enough saved so you could quit and find a better job.
84
So you live in fear when your cash flow is low, when your cash flow is even or negative.
85
You live in fear constantly.
86
You're always worried.
87
You're always afraid something might happen.
88
You're afraid to lose your job.
89
You're afraid your business will go down.
90
You're afraid of some emergency, some surprise.
91
That's not control.
92
That means other things control you.
93
Other people control you.
94
Even if you're very rich, even if your house is expensive and your car is expensive and your clothes are expensive, if your cash flow is low,
95
negative, if you owe money, you have big loans, you're borrowing money from the bank,
96
you're using credit cards you don't have control other people may may think you're rich they may think you're successful
97
but really you're not so that's why this cash flow idea is so important
98
so so important it's simple right it's so simple i'm not telling you something new
99
i'm not giving you some difficult information it's so simple
100
and yet so many people forget or ignore this very simple very important idea
101
why well you know for one thing we are taught to ignore it from tv from movies from advertising from our parents,
102
from our friends, from our co -workers,
103
from our bosses, our jobs, from everywhere.
104
We are taught that more money equals success.
105
We're taught that a big house, an expensive car, expensive clothes equals success.
106
so what do we do we borrow money to buy a
107
more expensive car we borrow money to buy a big big
108
house we borrow money with a credit card maybe to buy very nice clothes expensive looking clothes
109
we're always borrowing money so that we look successful Right?
110
That's what TV tells us to do.
111
That's what everybody tells us to do.
112
But that is not success.
113
And it really means stress in the future.
114
If you do that, you might feel successful in the beginning for a while,
115
but eventually you're going to feel very, very stressed.
116
You will not feel free.
117
You will not feel in control.
118
You will not have flexibility.
119
You will not have a lot of choices.
120
so we have to forget what our cultures tell us
121
and it's everywhere in the world now this is not just
122
america it's not just your country it's all over the world
123
it's the same message right it means look like you're rich
124
that means success and we make bad choices because of
125
that it's not just spending we also make bad choices about making money what do i mean by
126
that well it means we take jobs that we hate just
127
because they pay more money well i think that's a terrible
128
idea why would you want to do something you hate every
129
day just for more money it's a it's a bad choice in my opinion.
130
So, you know, we don't want to do that.
131
That's not financial success.
132
You're 40, 50, 60 hours a week.
133
You're doing something you hate or something you think is boring.
134
Maybe working with people you don't like just so you can have more money.
135
That's not success.
136
You're going to be more stressed.
137
You're going to be unhappy.
138
You're not going to enjoy your life when you do that.
139
So just making more money is not the answer.
140
Okay, so we need to think instead about cash flow.
141
Cash flow is the important concept, the important idea for financial success.
142
Forget this idea that just make more money, more, more, more, more, more, more.
143
Make more, spend more.
144
That's what we're taught.
145
Make more money, even at a bad job.
146
Spend more money, even if we have to borrow.
147
That's what most people are doing, trying to be successful.
148
Most people do not feel successful.
149
Most people feel stressed and worried all the time about money.
150
Most people don't feel free.
151
Most people don't feel like they control their finances.
152
So this is a new way to think.
153
And it's very important to look at the order, at the numbers there, right?
154
It's very important that number one is reduce spending, right?
155
I did not put make more money as number one.
156
That's number two.
157
Number one, the first step, is reduce your spending.
158
That's tough why is it tough it's not actually tough to
159
spend less money the tough part is changing your brain changing your belief changing your mind
160
and your attitude the tough part is to resist to forget
161
all the messages from people from other people that's the hard part you know it's very easy to live simply.
162
In fact, it's easier.
163
It's less stressful.
164
The hard part is everybody's telling you, oh, get more, more, more, but you're trying to spend and get less, less, less.
165
You're going against the mainstream culture.
166
But, you know, the mainstream culture is stressed and unhappy and not in control.
167
So if you want to be happy and have a lot of money and be free, you have to go against mainstream culture.
168
You begin by spending less.
169
Get a smaller apartment that costs less money.
170
Sell your house.
171
Buy a cheaper house, a smaller house.
172
Sell your car.
173
Get a cheaper car or don't use a car at all get a motorcycle
174
or take the bus or the subway it might feel
175
inconvenient in the beginning but when your cash flow gets better and better every month you will feel stronger and happier
176
So it's a very small thing to do to feel happier.
177
Okay, so reduce that amount.
178
Reduce the amount you spend on food.
179
Stay at home more.
180
Cook more at home.
181
It's pretty easy, actually.
182
There's a lot of different ways to spend less money.
183
I recommend you start with rent.
184
Rent is usually the biggest expense for most people.
185
It's usually the largest amount of money people spend on their home or apartment.
186
So that's the first place to reduce your spending.
187
And then cars, transportation is usually maybe number two.
188
That's also a very big one.
189
For some people, clothes, expensive clothes, is a major expense.
190
It's a lot of money they spend.
191
You need to reduce that.
192
If you want to be financially successful and free, if you want to feel relaxed about your money and happy,
193
if you want that, you must do this.
194
If you don't care about that, if you don't mind being stressed, or if you're super rich, you can ignore my advice.
195
But if you feel some stress about money, If you hate your job and you feel like it controls you, if you're tired of working all the time,
196
then this is the first step.
197
Reduce your money for spending.
198
Every month, your goal is to spend less.
199
Spend less this month.
200
Next month, spend even less.
201
The next month, even less.
202
Every month, less than the previous month.
203
That's your goal.
204
Do that for a year, maybe.
205
And then part two, we have increase your income, make more money.
206
Now, that might mean getting another job that pays more, but only if you like that job.
207
I never recommend getting a job you hate.
208
It's never worth it.
209
Okay, the extra money, it's never enough to replace your happiness.
210
If you're feeling stressed, if you're feeling very unhappy, if your boss is an asshole,
211
a jerk, there's not enough money to compensate for that.
212
There's not enough money to make you feel better about that.
213
So don't get a terrible job.
214
But if you can find a nice job that makes more money, that's great.
215
Of course, go for it. Do it.
216
if you can't then find other ways to make more money
217
i think the best way is to start your own business
218
it really is the best way to make more money it's scary for a lot of people
219
because they do it wrong because they borrow money if you borrow money to start a business you're going to probably fail.
220
I think something like 90 % of businesses fail.
221
Why do they fail?
222
What's the number one reason new businesses fail?
223
You know?
224
Cash flow.
225
Cash flow.
226
There's a lot of research about this.
227
You can read any business book about small business, you will find this same information.
228
Cash flow is the reason most businesses fail.
229
And most businesses, 90, I don't know, 95%, it's above 90.
230
Above 90 % of new businesses fail within five years.
231
That's terrible, right?
232
It's pretty scary.
233
But why do they fail?
234
They fail because of negative cash flow.
235
Why do they have negative cash flow?
236
Why are they spending more money than they make?
237
Well, number one, they borrow money in the beginning.
238
I mean, it's crazy.
239
I can't believe what some people do to start a business.
240
They borrow $100 ,000, for example, to start their business.
241
Oh my God, well, of course, that's a lot of stress.
242
You're already negative $100 ,000 on the first day.
243
It's going to be very difficult to get positive cash flow if you borrow money.
244
So number one, my advice, start a small business Do not borrow money.
245
So that means start something very, very, very, very small.
246
I started Effortless English with $200.
247
I did not borrow $200.
248
I saved $200 from my job.
249
Then I started Effortless English.
250
The first website was ugly and cheap.
251
Because I did not borrow money, I did not create a big, expensive, nice website.
252
Because I did not want to borrow money.
253
I did not want negative cash flow.
254
Instead, I started a tiny, super cheap website and did not borrow money.
255
So on the first day of Effortless English, I had positive cash flow because the first month,
256
actually, on the first month of Effortless English, I made more money than I spent.
257
I spent $200.
258
I think I made $225.
259
So total, my first month, I made $25 dollars.
260
That's not much, but it's positive cash flow.
261
It's not negative.
262
Most businesses have negative cash flow.
263
First month, actually, first year.
264
And as we see, actually, most of them fail.
265
So if you want to start a business, do not start a business that requires you to borrow money.
266
you know maybe you have a fantastic idea for a super website or a great restaurant or something
267
that's fine but
268
if you need to borrow money forget it do it later
269
do it later after you have a lot of money from another business a cheaper business to start
270
so start a super cheap business first without borrowing money.
271
Build it very slowly, a little bit.
272
You know, I made $25 my first month.
273
That's all.
274
That's okay.
275
You can do the same thing.
276
I was still working.
277
I had my job.
278
I was doing my business part -time.
279
You can do that also.
280
Start a cheap business.
281
And then build it slowly, slowly, every month, a little better, a little better.
282
Always focusing on cash flow, positive cash flow, positive cash flow.
283
Never spend more than you make.
284
Your business will eventually grow.
285
I promise you, as long as you have positive cash flow and you keep trying new things,
286
you keep trying, you keep learning, you will succeed.
287
I guarantee you can't fail.
288
You cannot fail if you have positive cash flow and you continue to learn.
289
Maybe you might need five months.
290
Maybe you need five years.
291
Maybe you need 12 years, but you won't fail if you have positive cash flow and you always are learning, learning, learning.
292
That's the two key things for a successful business, small business.
293
Now, maybe your business will grow and grow and grow, and then you have a lot of cash flow, and you have a lot of money saved.
294
Then you can try your big idea, your big expensive website, your big expensive restaurant.
295
No problem.
296
You don't need to borrow money.
297
It's okay.
298
But don't do it first.
299
Don't start with the big expensive business.
300
Start with something tiny, small, part -time, without borrowing money.
301
That's the key to a successful business.
302
Okay, well, that's all.
303
That's the discussion, the commentary for what is financial success.
304
I hope you enjoyed this.
305
I hope you follow this advice.
306
I want you to feel relaxed.
307
I want you to feel happy about money.
308
I want you to feel ecstatic about money.
309
I want you to feel free.
310
I want you to feel in control of your money.
311
I want you to start your own little business and then grow it.
312
I want it to be successful.
313
I want you to be financially successful.
314
Follow this advice, and I promise you will be.
315
Okay, take care.
316
Good luck.
317
See you next time.
318
Bye -bye.

نطق يحتاج إلى انتباه
يستخدم المتحدث 79 من الصيغ المختصرة، مثل you're, don't, can't. انطقها بصيغتها القصيرة كما تسمعها.
- الكلمات الطويلة — انتبه لموضع النبر: flexibility /ˌflɛksɪˈbɪlɪti/, commentary /ˈkɑ.mənˌtɛ.ɹi/, unexpected /ʌnɪkˈspɛktɪd/, motorcycle /ˈmoʊtɚˌsaɪkəl/, inconvenient /ˌɪn.kənˈviːni.ənt/
أصوات يجدها متحدثو العربية صعبة:
- /p/ — ليس /b/: انطقه مع نفخة هواء: unhappy /ʌnˈhæpi/, expense /ɪkˈspɛns/, happiness /ˈhæpinɪs/, unexpected /ʌnɪkˈspɛktɪd/, depend /dɪˈpɛnd/
- تتابع الصوامت — لا تضف حركة بينها: cloth /klɒθ/, distress /dɪˈstɹɛs/, relax /ɹɪˈlæks/, mainstream /ˈmeɪn.stɹiːm/, flexibility /ˌflɛksɪˈbɪlɪti/
كيف تتدرب بهذا الفيديو
- استمع إلى الفيديو كاملًا مرة واحدة دون أن تتكلم، ودوّن الكلمات التي لا تعرفها.
- ردّد جملة جملة بالسرعة العادية، وكرّر كل جملة حتى يتطابق إيقاعك مع المتحدث.
- سجّل صوتك وقارنه بالأصل، مع الانتباه إلى كلمات مثل borrow, unhappy, cloth.
ما هي تقنية التظليل الصوتي؟
التظليل الصوتي (Shadowing) تقنية تعلم لغة مدعومة علمياً، طُورت أصلاً لتدريب المترجمين الفوريين المحترفين. الطريقة بسيطة لكنها قوية: تستمع لصوت إنجليزي أصلي وتكرره فوراً بصوت عالٍ — كظل يتبع المتحدث بتأخير 1-2 ثانية. تُظهر الأبحاث تحسناً كبيراً في دقة النطق والتنغيم والإيقاع وربط الأصوات والاستماع والطلاقة.
