Creando lección...
1
I remember back when I was a better human being before I started being dependent on my phone
2
and dependent on this and dependent on that.
3
Literally, you can't even have a conversation with somebody nowadays because their minds are so out of it.
4
Or they're checking the Instagram.
5
Yeah, man.
6
I mean, like, hey, yeah.
7
So they're looking at you and their phone and they're here.
8
And then as you're having a serious conversation, an enlightening conversation, they then come out of nowhere and say, hey, did you hear about Trump?
9
You're like, what the fuck is your problem, man?
10
You can't hold a fucking attention span for longer than 15 seconds.
11
That's why you're not successful.
12
It takes a lot longer than 15 seconds to be focused on becoming rich, fucking becoming a better person,
13
becoming smarter, become more athletic, losing weight.
14
It takes time.
15
Your mind needs to be focused on that fucking task.
16
Just from how I how I write it and how it's on the page when I run I
17
Can't recall any of it.
18
I Cannot I cannot bring any of that
19
because I'm running how my mind is wired now is that everything I do is What I do?
20
Because the focus it takes for me to like right now.
21
I'm running.
22
I'm not like a great runner I'm not like injury free so people look at me.
23
Oh, it looks like he's limp I'm limping when he runs, I am limping when I run.
24
My body's jacked up so I'm focusing on how to get the best out of a broken body.
25
So everything I do is a total focus on what I'm doing at that point in my life.
26
But people don't wanna go through the process of focus, of teaching yourself how to truly focus.
27
Being focused on one thing at a time.
28
I have to be very present in everything I do.
29
Right now I'm in a rich role.
30
I'm not thinking about shit, but a rich role.
31
And what the fuck's coming out of your mouth right now?
32
That's what gives me a huge advantage in life, especially today in this day and age with There's so much shit going so fast and everybody wants to keep everything going,
33
everything up and everything.
34
I want to be the greatest, you know, the greatest multitasker of all time.
35
Not me.
36
If I put my 100% into what's in front of me, I will destroy it.
37
If I'm out here just multitasking and shit, I'm going to half-ass everything I do.
38
So that's, it is the most important thing in the world to me is being focused at the task at hand.
39
And it's getting harder and harder to do that because there are so many distractions and it's so easy to, it's so easy to distract yourself.
40
Yes, it is.
41
You don't ever have to be bored again with these things in our pockets.
42
No, but the one thing I'm most scared of in the world
43
is Losing losing touch with the the best thing in the world is your mind
44
Your mindset how you can picture yourself how you can focus
45
how you can drive how you can put yourself in
46
so many situations Get out of it
47
because those headphones you listen to those those phones that that we googled to find information
48
There's so many situations in my life where that's just not gonna help me It's not going to help me.
49
And you're able to just turn that off. So fast.
50
Because I know what's helped me.
51
None of that stuff has ever helped me.
52
None of that stuff has ever helped me.
53
What has helped me has been me alone getting my shit together
54
and being accountable for who I'm not and who I want to be.
55
It's the only thing that's helped me.

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
