you're probably gonna have to continue to live with your what you call your toxic parents
46
i would just you know again don't be overt about it
47

58
enough money to get a dirt place you know the dirt

60
or something like that during this time you're going to talk to your daughter you know like

when you can well i don't know what kind of legal
62
situation you're in with her whether you're allowed to visit her
63
but you're going to follow the rules you're going to stay
64
positive no negativity not to say anything negative about her mother
65
not going to say anything negative about life you concentrate on her you know what does she care
66
that you don't have money that you don't have problems or
67
that you have problems that you have this you don't have does she care about any of

find some kind of a trade that you're interested in electrician plumber welder carpenter you find one of those things, which one you're interested in.
77
They're all cool jobs.
78
It's all very gratifying to wire a place, to put plumbing in a place, to weld something together, to build a house or whatever.
79
And then once you figure out which one you're slightly interested in, you find one of those companies that does that and you go and get job there.
80
So you're going to take a minimum wage pay, whatever you're getting paid at Wendy's, you're getting paid at home Depot.
81
You're going to say, listen, I will do, I will, I will be labor for you.
82

95
that piece of paper that says you're an electrician you're going to go to that school
96

97
for you're continuing to work hard you're not wasting any money you're continuing to pay your debts
98

situation you're gonna have a steady job you're gonna have an employer

that appreciates you that you show up early that you stay late
103
that you work hard that you're clean
104
that you do what you're supposed to do you do it
105
on time you take the extra initiative you you're gonna have some money from

that you're gonna have a marketable skill because you went
107
and got that whatever
108
that certification is you're gonna find a place to live you'll have bought a $2 ,800 vehicle that's fairly reliable.

110
She's not two anymore.
111
And by the way, when she's between two, three, four, five, she's not going to remember a lot of that stuff.

113
Look, you're a loving dad.
114

115

¿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.
