1
Next time you're going to buy something nicer, ask yourself, what would buying this take away from me?
2
I've had this car for a long time.
3
My other car broke and I had to buy something quick and this is what I was able to secure.
4
Now I used to love driving around fast, listening to loud music with a subwoofer in the back.
5
This thing can't do that.
6
This thing is slow, okay?
7
And it doesn't have any bass in the speakers whatsoever.
8
Now when I go to the gym, I often see these cool cars in the parking lot.
9
There's a Corvette over there, Mercedes, and I'm thinking, man, maybe it's about time that I get a cool car.
10
That'd be sweet.
11
I feel like I would appreciate that.
12
But then I think, if I do that, what am I going to miss?
13
How much harder is it going to be to ever go back to a crappy car like this?
14
Not to call it crap, it's a nice car.
15
Right now, I can do whatever I want with this thing.
16
I can scratch it just to make a point in this video.
17
We can pile into this car all sandy and wet from the beach.
18
I don't care.
19
And if somebody hits it at some point, I can have grace and be like, hey, it's okay.
20
It's not that big of a deal.
21
That's the freedom of having something that's a little less cool, a little less than perfect.
22
It's the same reason I still have the iPhone SE.
23
Budget, you know, kind of worse version of the iPhone.
24
I don't want to be on my phone that much.
25
I don't want to be addicted to this awesome device.
26
So having the less cool one makes it easier to care less.
27
So ask yourself, would buying this take away the freedom of having the less perfect version?
28
Another thing buying a better version is something could take away from you.
29
I'm gonna tell a story in images.
30
So check this out.
31
This is what footage looks like straight out of my camera.
32
Hey, can you be quiet?
33
This is called V-Log, and it's like the raw version of the footage.
34
It captures the most detail possible.
35
Now check this out.
36
This is what it looks like when you put something called a LUT on it
37
to kind of bring some of the colors back in, in the editing software.
38
This is a free version from Panasonic, who makes my specific camera.
39
Don't leave.
40
This is going somewhere, I promise.
41
I actually quite like how this looks, but you can pay to buy all kinds of LUTs that are maybe better, right?
42
There's this one that everybody was saying that you should get.
43
So I bought the new one, and check this out.
44
Do you like it better?
45
Not sure?
46
Me neither.
47
I have no idea.
48
I actually kind of feel like I like the free one better.
49
But now, every time I put footage into my editing software, I don't know which one to choose.
50
Because I'm like, I kind of like the free one, but maybe that's just because I saw it first.
51
And I could use the better one, quote-unquote, but I might just be using that not because I like how it looks, but because I paid for it.
52
So now I kind of just wish that I didn't buy the new one at all.
53
There's a simplicity in only having one choice.
54
Sometimes enough is good.
55
And you can ask yourself, will buying this take away the simplicity of having less options?
56
I just always use the free one now, by the way.
57
Third thing, let me ask you a question.
58
The Nintendo Switch, the Switch 2, is cool, hot new console.
59
Who would be best off?
60
Somebody who really wants the Switch 2.
61
They really want it, but they don't have it.
62
Two, somebody who really wants the Switch 2 and they got it.
63
They have it.
64
Awesome.
65
Or three, somebody who doesn't want the Switch 2 and doesn't have it.
66
Now the answer is the person who doesn't want it anyway.
67
It can't be taken away from them, right?
68
Humans tend to get used to the things that they have really fast.
69
You're going to go back to baseline pretty quick.
70
And then you can break it.
71
You could lose it.
72
You're gonna want more games and desire more.
73
And if you don't use it, you might feel guilty because you paid a bunch of money for it, right?
74
You're like, ah, man, I should really be using it.
75
So you'd be better off if you just were fine without it and didn't even want it.
76
This is something philosophers have been talking about for millennia.
77
The Buddhists really harp on this one, desire.
78
It doesn't really get better than being content with what you have.
79
So if you're already content and then you buy something anyway, all that could possibly happen is you're risking your contentment that you already have.
80
So another Another way to think about this is ask yourself, could I be content without this?
81
If yes, great, cool, do whatever you want.
82
If no, I would pause.
83
Why can't I be content without this?
84
And ask yourself, is this out of desire or is this out of purpose?
85
Is there a purpose to this?
86
Is this me wanting a Corvette or am I having kids and it's time to buy a minivan?
87
Right?
88
See how those are different?
89
So I think it might be worth asking the question, what could buying this take away from me?
90
I can definitely stand to do that more myself.
91
But this is not anti-buying things.
92
Buy stuff and enjoy it, right?
93
This is just a thought.
94
Because buying things doesn't just cost money.
95
You could be sacrificing things you're not even thinking about.
96
And it might be important.
97
Well, hopefully that didn't get way overexposed.
98
speaking of the camera stuff I still figuring that out hopefully that didn't look horrible

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.
