1
Hey everybody, welcome back to my channel.
2
So I've been sitting in, I don't know, it's not a field, but it's not a garden.
3
I've been like sitting here and just, you know, enjoying my time.
4
I've been painting actually.
5
Let me show you guys.
6
I haven't finished yet, but I am, you know, I will today.
7
um right now i just really want to talk about this
8
um very important thing in our life you know it's like
9
a new stage um in our life like we level up um
10
when we start uh when we stop i'm sorry
11
when we stop seeking uh someone else's approval um maybe we
12
will just stop living for somebody else maybe we will just stop making those stupid dumb decisions
13
because someone told us that we can't
14
do this or that because someone thinks this
15
or this is right this is wrong someone came to you
16
and said this is right and this is wrong
17
if you do this you know you will be like you know you will look like a fool
18
if you do this you're like a good you know you're like a good person no no So, you know what?
19
I realized no matter how much you're trying to be,
20
no matter how much you're trying to put those other people on pedestal, it never works.
21
It never works because people do not think the way you do.
22
People do not, you know, people don't have the same opinions.
23
They don't have the same mindset.
24
They don't have the same thoughts in their heads.
25
and we can't it's like it's not possible to read someone
26
else's head to read their thoughts to it's possible though to sense their energy
27
and tell whether they're you know a good person you know whether they match our energy
28
or not but um what i'm you know what i mean by this is
29
that we cannot read anyone anyone's mind
30
so stop pretending like you are a child who needs to
31
listen to their parents other people you're even your family
32
when you're like growing you um you're gaining
33
so much knowledge you uh you open
34
so much possibilities for yourself you're like you're
35
so open to new um opportunities to new doors you open them you know you're
36
so desperate for like your future you're like
37
so in love with you know your life or you're like
38
so lost in your life and you you know where to go like where you go
39
and you know you have no idea about your direction
40
but you don't have to you don't have to figure it all out okay
41
if someone told you if like you're if you're a teenager
42
if someone came
43
and told you like your parents uh perhaps they're put in
44
you know this you know emotional pressure on you saying
45
that have you um have you thought about your future have
46
you thought about your job do you know what you know
47
what are you gonna do in your future right like about the university about college about you know all of
48
that stuff please let me decide okay let me you know
49
let it go natural let it flow naturally you know um
50
nobody is supposed to tell you what to do okay like nobody okay
51
if your parents do not like your decision if your parents
52
if your friends do not like you what you're doing okay you know
53
if it's friends it's you know it's less complicated since you
54
can just say okay bye okay i'm not you know i'm not gonna waste my time you know believing
55
that you are right and i'm wrong
56
and i'm wrong uh i'm just gonna you know leave you
57
and i'm just gonna live at peace you know i'm just gonna bring the peace back to me okay
58
because you're like you you're a toxic one you are this you know toxic person
59
that really prevents me from from being free okay so um
60
if you want to set yourself up for success you really
61
need to start um you know um living just letting go those people
62
and letting them know that you're not gonna appreciate this
63
that you're not like gonna appreciate their comments their advices uh
64
you know they might give you advices they might give you
65
you know they might say they might teach you how to leave
66
but you know you they are not you you know you know
67
when someone says oh this person told me all my friend
68
things this way is they're not you okay they're not you okay
69
so leave leave it alone okay
70
and don't be afraid of like being alone don't be afraid of leaving people
71
because you don't have anyone and you realize
72
if i leave this person i will not have anyone right
73
right it's it's right it's fine it's fine okay you will find out you will figure it out okay
74
so you're not you know you were not created um to
75
listen to those people you were not created to constantly like
76
you know be worried about those you know opinions about whatever
77
someone is telling you you're not created for this you are created for love
78
and you can develop this love i mean you can't
79
because love is within you it's not something to look for
80
you know look look what look at what's in front of you
81
and you will find true love you will find you will develop like this you know joy
82
and pure love and everything
83
that you have ever wanted you know i'm gonna share with you this um you know technique
84
or coping mechanism when I feel overwhelmed when I need to make a decision
85
and I know that this decision is going to be perhaps life-changing decision maybe like not life-changing
86
but you know a really important one I just really I go um to the park
87
or I go to the forest or I go to the beach
88
or you know I'm just by my own right I don't have anyone with me
89
and I just sit you know I have I can have
90
a picnic uh like here you know I'm just alone um this is sunset not a sunset
91
but you know just sun and I'm sitting here I'm like enjoying my life you know but anyways
92
when I need to make this decision decision I you know
93
I have no one to ask I don't want to ask anyone
94
because i knew i knew
95
that um my inner wisdom will tell me you know what
96
this inner voice will tell me what's you know what's right
97
okay you know in what direction i will have to move okay you know
98
so i just really i just sit here you know know
99
in the park in the beach whatever i want right
100
and i just um i think about this i can also
101
journal i often bring my journals my pen my pencil whatever
102
and i just journal i write about my feelings i just
103
you know i dig deeper into into my soul right and then i realize and then i finally i I just,
104
you know, I just really make this decision.
105
I don't need anyone.
106
I just really, I live for myself.
107
I know that this decision, you know, the affect and, you know, the consequences, whatever, will depend on me, you know,
108
on this decision, on what I think, what I eventually do.
109
So no one, no one really knows me so well.
110
You know, when I, when I'm alone, especially when I'm alone, I just sit somewhere and
111
um only
112
when i'm like alone in this you know in nature do realize how much you know i know myself
113
and then i realize others will never know me as much as i know myself
114
and you have to think the same way about yourself
115
because this is normal this is normal nobody is supposed to get you
116
so much nobody's supposed to like you know be your um
117
you don't have to seek guidance from anyone okay i just
118
don't have to like you know you know ask your parents
119
what do i you know what do you want me to
120
do in the future right listen to yourself listen to what's
121
here you know what's in your heart listen to your soul um meditate i don't know there are
122
so many options actually there are so many options
123
and you can try all of them you know
124
and then like stop living for anyone else
125
if you want to do something then stop being embarrassed of
126
what you are doing you know stop being embarrassed of what
127
you like you know like a lot of people i'm not
128
gonna lie i've lost a lot of people i've lost my
129
friend i've lost you know i just i lost connection with almost everyone
130
but I developed you know as a result I developed one really it's just one
131
but it's really valuable friendship for me you know even though I don't have like you know many friends I'm
132
so happy I'm so content with my life with my reality
133
because I know that if I really I I'm leaving for myself I'm like I'm
134
so free if I want to I will do this
135
if I want this I will do this yeah I know
136
also like my parents um have never said have never made me believe um
137
that you know they are right and I'm wrong
138
because they always you know they have always um told me that if you want to do Yes,
139

that many people um however are struggling i'm sorry was like was parents disapproval
144
and you know was there just parents was there you know was the way their parents react to certain circumstances
145
or things you know so i i get it but anyways
146
if it doesn't really fit you if it doesn't align with your personality
147
with who you truly are you don't have to do
148
that just because someone told you okay like you will be 18
149
if you're not yet you will like you will have to
150
move out you will have to create your own life
151
and I believe
152
that you are the creator you were born to create it's just like a painting right I bought a canva
153
and I decided to paint it
154
so nobody told me nobody told me what to paint I
155
just you know I used my own paints I used my favorite colors I just really I created this
156
so I feel like this painting is really is like similar to our life okay when you buy a new canva
157
you're like you're creating your own masterpiece you're like um
158
if you're not copying ever anyone if you're if you're like
159
so determined to create yours
160

161
with like magical result like magical future magical painting you know so stop seeking
162
anyone's approval leave for yourself leave for yourself

¿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.
