Pratique du Shadowing: Once you apply this, the Universe will have no choice but to give you everything. - Apprendre l'anglais à l'oral avec la vidéo

I'm going to teach you the biggest reason why people never create the life that they want.

Because their brain and their nervous system are unconsciously fighting against the life that you want.

And if you don't overcome that, you will self-sabotage every time that you're trying to do something out of your comfort zone.

And you will never create a truly amazing life.

So I'm going to show you how to rewire that process, how to make achieving your goals feel more natural

and how to train your mind to start seeing the opportunities that you might be completely missing right now.

So if you've ever felt stuck, this episode could completely change the way that you see your future.

I'm going to teach you how to make the life of your dreams feel number one, normal, but also number two, inevitable.

So you kind of are going to learn how to brainwash yourself into creating the life

that you want versus holding yourself back.

The first thing that you need to know is this, your brain is always predicting your future.

So if you spent your entire life seeing people struggle financially, your brain is going to predict financial struggles.

If you spent your entire life seeing people make only $50,000 a year, your brain predicts $50,000 a year is normal for you.

If it looks at your history and it says, this is normal, this is what people like us do, this is how much money we make,

this is where we live, this is what we deserve, this is how life works, then when you get to the point where you're starting to talk about creating a completely different life

and being successful and being happier and being in better shape and making more money,

your brain can actually resist that because it falls outside of the model that it's built for you in the world.

And so your conscious mind can want it, but your subconscious mind will actually resist it.

This is why so many people are at battle with themselves.

The problem is that your conscious mind is only a tiny fraction of who you think that you are.

It's only 5% of your operating system, 95% of your cognitive processing every single day.

That's your subconscious.

So your conscious mind might say, hey, I want to build a million dollar business, but your subconscious is like, no, people like us don't do that.

Well, then guess who's going to win?

The subconscious every single time, because it's 19 times more powerful than the conscious mind. And

so what I'm going to teach you today is like how

to use one of the strongest psychological forces in human behavior to get what it is that you want.

And that's familiarity.

People trust what feels familiar.

There's actually a psychological principle that's called the mere exposure effect.

And researchers have found that the more often that people are exposed to something, the more comfortable they become with it and the more positively they tend to view it.

So we naturally become more comfortable with things that are more familiar.

And we move towards what is familiar.

And we often become what is familiar.

So when you repeatedly expose yourself to different environments, like successful environments, and beautiful neighborhoods, and higher levels of wealth,

and healthy relationships, and loving families, or whatever it is that is in the life that you want to create, you're doing something that's very, very important psychologically.

You're making what was once unfamiliar feel familiar.

You're teaching your nervous system that this is not something that is foreign to you.

And it's not only other people that get this.

This can be a part of your reality too.

And we will be right back.

Hey, real quick, let me interrupt this episode.

I have a huge announcement.

I have an in-person event, three days, this year in Austin, Texas, happening happening.

If you want to learn more about it, you can join the waitlist right now.

And the people who join the waitlist will get the biggest discounts and the cheapest prices for this three-day event.

You can go to freedomwaitlist.com or you can scan that QR code that's right there.

And now back to the show.

And it starts to feel normal and the brain loves normal.

The brain doesn't seek happiness.

The brain seeks familiarity.

So how can you get the life that you want to not feel out of reach, but to actually feel normal?

That way you're not pushing yourself to get there.

You're actually feeling pulled to get there.

So this is a process that I call normalizing the life that you want.

I want your brain, your body, your nervous system to normalize the feeling of every single thing that you want in your life.

This is why rich kids often make money a lot easier.

People look at someone who grew up wealthy and they assume like, oh, they make money easily because everything was handed to them.

Yeah, sometimes that is true, but often there's something that's actually deeper happening in the actual nervous system of that person.

See, wealth to them is normal.

That's what they were raised with.

So it's not this far out distant thing that they want.

It's just something that they're going to have.

So like success is normal.

Abundance is normal.

Making a large investment is normal.

Big opportunities are normal.

So they don't see those things as impossible as I did when I was a kid and I was, I came from nothing.

And I was like, oh my God, that's so crazy that people get to these levels of wealth and status and success and happiness.

So they don't see those things as impossible.

They see them as a normal part of life.

It's already normal.

And because of that, the key here is this.

There's no energetic resistance inside of them.

There's no internal argument.

There's no conscious mind versus subconscious mind.

There's no subconscious saying, well, who do you think you are to go and try to get that?

Because it's already been normalized their entire life.

So their subconscious isn't fighting the outcome.

And that's the incredibly powerful thing

that I want you to understand of what we're going to really like dive into and deconstruct today.

Let's talk about how you can normalize the life that you want

so that you stop getting your own way and self-sabotaging, okay?

I'm going to use some materialistic examples, but we can use this for literally everything that we want.

Not just like a car and a house and money and success and business, but like a loving family if you've never come from that.

A great relationship with your kids if you have never come from

that either or even seen it in the people that you surround yourself with.

So the first thing I want you to do is this.

stop looking at the car and go drive the car.

Like don't just save photos of the car on Instagram.

Don't just put it on your phone background.

That's just admiring it from a distance.

The real idea of normalizing, I should say, is to interact with it, to like be in the environment, be in the energy of it.

Let's say that your dream car is a Porsche, right?

Don't stare at photos of it.

Go test drive it.

Go to the actual Porsche dealership.

You're not pretending, just so you know.

You're leveraging the mirror exposure effect, which I was just talking about.

100

You're allowing your nervous system to become familiar with something that probably feels distant for you right now.

101

And if it feels out of reach, it will always be out of reach.

102

So every minute that you spend in that car makes it a little bit less mythical to you.

103

It's a little bit less impossible.

104

It's a little more normal.

105

And eventually your brain stops seeing it as something that belongs to other people and something that's out of reach for you.

106

It starts seeing it as something that will belong to you.

107

So sit in it, smell the leather, feel the steering wheel, take it for a drive, experience it, like feel the way your body shifts when you hit a corner.

108

Let your nervous system gather evidence that this isn't some like mythical object that's reserved for just special people.

109

It's just a car.

110

It's a nice car.

111

And one day it will be yours.

112

Not can be yours, not might be yours.

113

One day it will be yours.

114

Even better, go rent it.

115

There's apps like Turo, T-U-R-O.

116

I have no affiliation with them.

117

You can rent almost any cards you want that somebody else puts out.

118

It's like Airbnb for cars.

119

Rent it for a weekend.

120

Maybe rent it for a week.

121

I want you to internalize the experience, to normalize the experience because every hour that you spend inside that car

122

sends the message to your subconscious like that this isn't impossible.

123

Like I'm in this car now.

124

I'm experiencing this.

125

This is real.

126

This is attainable for me.

127

And this process, like I said, is called normalization.

128

You're getting your nervous system to make it feel normal to you.

129

Another example of something you could do, normalize the house that you want.

130

Like the same exact thing applies for your dream home.

131

Figure out where you want to live, what part of town you want to live in, and then start spending time there.

132

Drive around the neighborhoods, walk the neighborhoods, go to the open houses.

133

There's always open houses on the weekends.

134

So go into whatever app that you use, realtor.com, Zillow, whatever it might be, and you can see what open houses are happening this weekend.

135

Go into the open houses, look at the houses, experience it, be in them, drive the streets, like spend time in those environments.

136

Most people think like, oh, I'm going to do this for motivation.

137

Sure, you could do it for motivation, but I really think that you should be doing it for familiarity.

138

The goal isn't to impress yourself.

139

The goal is to normalize this experience inside of your body.

140

The goal is to let your subconscious mind repeatedly experience this environment until it stops feeling like a fantasy

141

and it starts to feel more like a future possibility.

142

Most people wait until they can afford something before allowing themselves to experience it.

143

I think that's completely backwards.

144

Go experience it first, normalize it internally, and then make it familiar in your life.

145

And you're more likely to get it.

146

When you walk into a beautiful home every single weekend, eventually they kind of stop feeling intimidating.

147

They're still beautiful.

148

They're still amazing, but they start to feel normal.

149

That's what we're trying to do.

150

And once something feels normal, your subconscious stops fighting it.

151

Like I did this when I first moved to Austin.

152

So I moved to Austin 15 years ago at this point.

153

I used to drive around the nicest neighborhoods and there's these hills in Austin.

154

Most people don't realize there's these beautiful hills, like these rolling hills.

155

It starts the Texas Hill Country, right?

156

There's these huge properties, these beautiful houses.

157

There's amazing views and sunset views in the hills of Austin.

158

And every single time I drove through them, I would tell myself, I'm going to live here one day.

159

This is where I'm supposed to be.

160

I'm going to live here one day.

161

I'm going to live here one day.

162

I don't know how.

163

I don't know when.

164

I don't have any money.

165

I don't have any plan for it.

166

But I kept going three to four times a week.

167

I kept normalizing.

168

I kept seeing it.

169

I kept believing it.

170

And it took me 12 years to get here.

171

But today, I actually live in that part of Austin.

172

My backyard views are the hills with the sunset facing west that I used to stare at and be like, I'm going to get this one day.

173

But I never stopped believing it was possible.

174

I was trying to basically like brainwash all 40 trillion of my cells in my body to believing that it was possible.

175

And so it always felt like it was more inevitable than anything else.

176

This isn't like I'm something special, like I'm some special person.

177

That's how I did it.

178

I trained my nervous system and brainwashed myself to believing it could happen.

179

Anybody can do this.

180

I think everybody should do it.

181

Okay.

182

Another thing I think you should do is I think you should rent in your future.

183

So one of my favorite things to recommend to people is to once a year, save up your money, rent your future.

184

If your dream is to live on the beach, rent a beach house for a week.

185

If your dream is to live in the mountains, rent a mountain cabin.

186

If your dream is luxury, then go experience luxury in some sort of way.

187

Not because you're pretending, but because you're actually trying to train your subconscious.

188

Sit there, look at the ocean, close your eyes, like really feel it,

189

smell the waves and smell the ocean and hear them and feel the breeze and the mist on your face and say, I'm going to own a house like this.

190

I'm going to own a house like this.

191

One day I'm going to own a house like this.

192

And you're not doing this from desperation.

193

You're not doing it from lack.

194

You're trying to do it from certainty.

195

I don't know when, I don't know how, but I know it's coming.

196

And you're kind of in a way brainwashing yourself.

197

Stop being brainwashed by the rest of the world and by Instagram and by your parents and all that.

198

Brainwash yourself.

199

And then what you do is you just let go of

200

when it's going to happen and just focus on the destination

201

and focus on the work

202

that you need to do to get there those are the two things

203

that you can control now what do you do

204

when you're not fast driving a car or you know renting a car

205

or going to open houses

206

or renting a house then what you do visualize every single day right on the days

207

when you're not renting houses test driving all that stuff

208

visualize what is it you want one of those powerful ways

209

that you can normalize what it is

210

that you want is through visualization the more

211

that you do it the more familiar it starts to feel

212

and the more familiar that it feels the less resistance you will have towards it

213

and that's exactly what you're doing

214

when you visualize your future you're mentally rehearsing a life before

215

it actually arrives in your reality your brain doesn't distinguish between vividly imagined experiences in an actual one.

216

And so this is why visualization is so powerful.

217

You're essentially giving your brain practice reps.

218

You're rehearsing success.

219

You're rehearsing confidence.

220

You're rehearsing your future.

221

You're rehearsing the loving family that you're going to have, having the love of your life in your life, the beautiful children that you're going to have,

222

and the amazing connection and relationship that you're going to have, the loving home that you're going to live in, the great relationships with your friends and your family.

223

And every time you do it, you make that future just a little bit more familiar, a little bit more normal, and a little bit less impossible.

224

That's why I always recommend spending a few minutes every single

225

morning just visualizing exactly what you want your life to look like.

226

Not because you're just doing it because it's some woo-woo thing or because it's magic, because you're actually training your brain and your nervous system.

227

And the difference that this turns into is instead of it being like,

228

oh, this is possible, is you're actually kind of like convincing yourself to believing that it's inevitable.

229

Like you want your brain and your subconscious to start feeling like this is inevitable.

230

Not like, oh, will this happen?

231

But like, when will this happen?

232

Like that's a completely different energy, completely different psychology, completely different nervous system response.

233

And then you'll take completely different actions because of it.

234

And then if you continue you doing this over and over and over again, the renting of the car and going to the open house

235

and visualizing every single day and spending some time with loving family so that you're in that energy, something starts to change within you.

236

The life that once felt impossible begins to feel possible.

237

Then once it becomes possible, it becomes more probable.

238

And eventually probable starts to feel inevitable.

239

Because if you've repeatedly exposed your brain and your nervous system to a future

240

that once felt like it was completely outside of your reality, and you do it over and over and over again, boom, you're normalizing it.

241

So my assignment for you is this.

242

What I want you to do is I want you to pick one thing that you've always wanted.

243

One thing, not 10, one.

244

I want you to be laser focused on that thing and ask yourself, how can I make this thing feel more normal?

245

Maybe it's test driving the car.

246

Maybe it's visiting the neighborhood.

247

Maybe it's renting the house.

248

Maybe it's spending five minutes every morning visualizing it.

249

Maybe it's joining a community where people already have what you want.

250

Maybe it's surrounding yourself with people who have a great marriage.

251

Maybe it's being around other people who are great parents.

252

Whatever it is, normalize it, start normalizing it.

253

Because when your subconscious mind stops seeing it as impossible, like actually start seeing it as familiar, you begin acting differently, begin noticing different opportunities.

254

You take different actions, you make different decisions and eventually the life

255

that once felt out of reach and maybe even a little bit impossible will start to feel inevitable.

256

So that is how you normalize the life that you want.

257

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?

Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
