1
But I just feel it in my whole being that I'm the best fighter on the planet.
2
Now my job is just to prove it.
3
Jon Jones is the baddest man on the planet, and the current heavyweight champion of the world.
4
You would think someone like that doesn't fear anything, but as it turns out, even Jon experiences fear.
5
In this video, he will explain to you how to break free from the reign of this fear, and use it in an empowering way.
6
You've been saying something that I find to be very interesting, that the butterflies in your stomach are in formation.
7
I've never heard that before.
8
I think it makes a lot of sense.
9
What do you mean by that?
10
Elaborate.
11
What do I mean by that?
12
Okay, so the butterfly is in formation.
13
Basically, it means when you have butterflies and you're feeling anxious and you have anxiety or nervous, that's when you're most powerful, I believe.
14
And either you can.. yeah, you're most powerful.
15
So a lot of people, instead of homing this power and using it, they allow it to just consume them.
16
You know, there's another quote that says, a big challenge or big pressure is like a fire.
17
It's like a raging fire.
18
Either you can allow this fire to consume you and just take you over completely, or you can gain control of this fire and harness it
19
and you blow it right at your opponent like Dragon Ball Z style.
20
So with Rampage Jackson, I kept having these nightmares that I would get knocked out.
21
And no matter how the fight played out, I would always get knocked out.
22
And it was always within the first 30 seconds of the fight.
23
And I couldn't avoid this inevitable knockout that I was going to experience in the first round.
24
And, you know, I'm a big fan of sports psychology, so I call those red zone thoughts.
25
And I actually got that from Rashad Evans.
26
When you have a negative thought, immediately cancel it with a positive thought.
27
Instead of thinking of somebody beating your ass, you think of yourself exhausted.
28
You're winning.
29
Fight's almost over.
30
Just think something positive.
31
On fight night, I felt like I was going to get knocked out and I felt like this was coming for me.
32
I felt like energetically, like I was getting these signals from a higher power that like, John, this is going to happen to you tonight.
33
And I couldn't avoid it.
34
So I just had this super deep prayer where I got down on my knees
35
and I touched my body from my head to my toe
36
for the first time and I prayed this prayer asking God to just give me this supernatural like reaction abilities,
37
speed, flexibility, awareness and as I was praying this prayer
38
and touching myself and rubbing myself
39
and meaning every ounce of this thinking my life is on the line I noticed looking at myself
40
that I was covered in feathers.
41
I was covered in white feathers.
42
Like a hallucination?
43
It wasn't a hallucination man.
44
It was, it was, it was, it was...
45
Real as fuck to you.
46
It was very real to me.
47
It was very real to me.
48
I could see myself covered in like, there was like small feathers in between my fingers.
49
And I was covered in feathers and they came up like to my neck and my face was still like normal, not in feathers, but my hands and feet were covered.
50
And I felt like I was like this fighting thing that wasn't earthly, almost.
51
And I like felt this surge of energy,
52
power, flexibility, mental acuity and awareness and sharpness that I had never experienced before.
53
And I like jumped off my knees and like landed on both feet immediately.
54
And I was just like, whoa, whoa.
55
And I was just, Wendy's like .
56
My coaches was looking at me like, like they could feel like, okay, he is pumped up.
57
And Coach Ringo John's like, let's hit, let's hit.
58
And immediately I kicked the pad and it was like, boom.
59
And it like, it like, it was like, whoa.
60
And like my kicks were lightning fast and I didn't need to stretch anymore.
61
I didn't need to warm up my lungs anymore.
62
My kicks were going up high.
63
I was jumping higher.
64
I was kicking faster and higher.
65
It was an unbelievable experience.
66
And I actually was able to hang on to this feeling
67
and this illusion of myself being in this alter ego all the way through the cage,
68
all the way through my walk to the cage and I felt like in that Rampage Jackson fight,
69
I walked into that fight as this feather man for the first time.
70
And my idea to crawl towards him was the only thing that hadn't happened in all my nightmares.
71
Because in every fight I started at my feet.
72
So, suddenly just said, get on your knees and crawl up to him.
73
And then automatically the dream voids itself of him knocking you out immediately, right?
74
So I did that and I got to kind of, I don't know, fight in an alter ego kind of state.
75
And it was super powerful.
76
Now to this day, I say that same kind of prayer over myself.
77
And I believe that I transform into something.
78
I honestly believe that I was born to fight.
79
I really believe it in my whole heart.
80
You know, some people think that's silly.
81
But I think a lot of great athletes, people are really good at what they do.
82
It's more than just what they could do in the gym.
83
It's something that starts way before they're known in the arenas.
84
It's something that's like an internal belief.
85
And I honestly have convinced myself that I'm not designed to lose.
86
I believe that if I study my opponent, I give these guys the utmost respect and attention they deserve.
87
I don't think that I was designed to lose to any person.
88
And when you have that level of self-belief, it's hard for you to...
89
You know, you just feel like you feel like you're being disrespectful to your past,
90
to your destiny by allowing your human emotions to take over and showing fear and all that type of stuff.
91
Like, don't get me wrong.
92
I have the worst anxiety.
93
I get very nervous, but I owe it to myself to not be afraid.
94
And I owe it to my beliefs to just fucking get out there and do something rare and special.
95
Yeah, there's a lot of mental that goes into it that I don't think people realize.
96
But the goal is to just conquer that.
97
Conquer that.
98
By the time you get to the arena and you're backstage, you realize that this is where you were meant to be.
99
This is what you're good at.
100
And you owe it to all the people out there who are unsure.
101
You owe it to them to be as excellent as you can be when you finally keep following what you're good at.
102
And the way I look at anxiety, it just means that you care.
103
You care about the outcome and how you perform and how you perceive and everything.
104
I feel like when you get to a place where you don't feel anything, it's probably when it's time to hang it up and try something different.
105
At this point, I still get really nervous, man.
106
I have nightmares about my opponents.
107
I'm sorry.
108
Thank you.

¿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.
