5
in just a few months.
6
Thank you.
7
Pretty much all my life.
8
I've never been somebody who wakes up early. And now...
9
I went off alone.
10
on a big step in my journey on my path.
11
which was to move out of home.
12
I moved to a big city and now Pretty much.
13
independent, right?
14
I still have to get an apartment though, but - The President and the President of the United States.
15
and The thing is, I...
16
have become somebody who likes to wake up early.
17
Yesterday I started work at 10 in the morning, so you would think, okay, you know, you know, take your time.
18
I mean this is what I would have done.
19
I would have Like back.
20
back to who I've always been, I would have gone back Thank you.
21
and like stayed up till, I don't know, God knows when, probably watched a movie or something, maybe even play some video games, I don't know.
22
Play some Counter -Strike.
23
And Just take my time with it, because I like the night.
24
I like staying up late because everybody's asleep already.
25
And it's peaceful and I get it.
26
and Even if I wouldn't have stayed up that late, I would have at least slept till eight or nine And I'm going to go.
27
Not even that long ago.
28
This is like A month ago.
29
I would wake up 30 minutes before work.
30
So I just had to get ready and then I would go straight into my shift and then you know, I'd be done with it.
31
Okay.
32
Yet, now I'm waking up and I...
33
It sounds so...
34
Petty. or so flamboyant.
35
No, it doesn't matter.
36
I'm waking up at 5 :30 in the morning now, pretty much every day.
37
At least I'm trying to.
38
And even today, I mean, I was out.
39
uh, I was out today, like last night.
40
You know, there was this party from work and stuff.
41
And I was out and about.
42
I had a few drinks, which was great.
43
I believe everything in moderation is cool.
44
uh...
45
Even though I wrote down today, maybe I might quit alcohol for good, but who knows.
46
Okay.
47
I'll see that still.
48
you know, I've been up since five...
49
520 -ish.
50
Yesterday I did that even though I had work and I I did not want to go to work like at all.
51
I didn't want to wake up at all.
52
I didn't I hadn't been sleeping very well like I didn't sleep.
53
I had nightmares and stuff so my unfortunately my sleep was like bad.
54
And I still went to the gym, still did my laundry and all that stuff.
55
I just...
56
I don't know.
57
It feels like it does give you more time, you know.
58
Because, sure, I mean, I can wake up late.
59
and go to sleep late But like the rest of the world,
60
like we do have like the rest of the world does have a schedule and you're Interclock does it anyways,
61
like, We humans if we were just outside, right?
62
Because we are, I mean, we are one with nature.
63
It's nothing, we can't, There's nothing that can...
64
divide you from nature.
65
You are.
66
You're a fucking, you're an animal.
67
We're an animal.
68
We're mammals, right?
69
Anyhow, In nature, you would wake up around the same time, 5 :30, or at least when the sun would rise.
70
as well as go to sleep when the sun would go down.
71
there was this quote that I read It was about drinking the water that the deer drinks,
72
going to sleep with the with the birds and waking up with the I think it was a different animal.
73
I think it was the other way around.
74
Wake up with the birds or something.
75
because the early I mean, we've always heard this, the early bird gets the prey or something, right?
76
So I don't know.
77
It sounds very cliche.
78
Perhaps.
79
Yeah, it's...
80
I do find that waking up early It has given me some sort of power, some sort of control where I feel like,
81
okay, Look at me, I'm actually doing this.
82
I feel very accomplished because I, I, and I feel more than anything.
83
The biggest reason I do it is because I am so peaceful.
84
because I have time.
85
I've got time for myself.
86
I don't need to rush.
87
Okay, I need to work at 10 in the morning.
88
I just woke up at 5 :30.
89
I got time.
90
Even if I don't get anything done, which I do, Even if I don't get anything done.
91
I get to relax because you know I saw this thing the other day.
92
I don't really know where it was,
93
but I saw this and I was like man yeah It was about what are blessings or the greatest blessings in life?
94
And one of them was One of them was a slow morning.
95
And that was just so profound to me.
96
A slow morning.
97
Just taking your time, not having to rush and feeling already stressed out, even though you've just woken up.
98
Thank you.
99
I also went outside that day and meditated.
100
Actually, so yesterday, this is what I did.
101
I went to the gym, I did my laundry, I meditated, I prayed.
102
That was all in the morning.
103
And it was just peaceful, it was great.
104
Yeah.
105
Obviously I had breakfast and all that.
106
Yeah.
107
- Okay.
108
You know, I think I might take a nap today because, you know, my sleep schedule, I don't want to...
109
I do have to get a little bit of sleep, but...
110
you know There are three main things in life that are really bad for you.
111
So you need to be careful. with them.
112
First one is alcohol alcohol we all know it's fucking terrible for you Smoking, I don't really think I need to get into why.
113
Alcohol, I don't remember why.
114
I just, there's a lot of people out there.
115
Rich Roll, um...
116
- Thank you.
117
Rich Roll, Andrew Huberman, I mean, Those are at least two influences from that I really, you know, They know their shit.
118
At least Andrew Huberman most of all.
119
When it comes to like the signs aspect.
120
And Rich Roll is...
121
someone who's sober, as well as Actually, the Mark Manson, the author of The Subtle Art of Not Giving a Fuck.
122
He...
123
also quit alcohol so you know I'm thinking like oh At least if you don't believe me or you know, the common sense.
124
these people That's their job.
125
You know.
126
Um...
127
I don't know why I'm pointing towards them because, you know, I don't think I need to explain why alcohol is bad.
128
It's just terrible for you.
129
Then number two, which is probably the biggest and easiest to fuck up It's sleep.
130
So I've been starting to take my sleep very fucking seriously. And honestly...
131
I, in my tracker, which I will show you, Here we go.
132
So if you go, this is my tracker, right?
133
So in here I write down.
134
So this is a template that I got from a YouTube video.
135
I'll link it down below.
136
that you can copy that.
137
It's just, you know, you just got to use the tools.
138
You can find anything, you know, just make it work for you. And.
139
you can find any tools online nowadays.
140
There is no excuse, seriously.
141
And I mean, I always hear that.
142
I'm just like, fuck you, man.
143
Like, Stop being so annoying, but like, I don't know, it's true.
144
Here we go.
145
So this is my tracker and here you got one column that's sleep.
146
Right.
147
And so I was all these These are all nights that I slept eight hours.
148
And honestly, I was like fucking, like I was feeling amazing.
149
And then the days that I didn't sleep, which are a few now, uh, Dude, I was fucked.
150
That was just like...
151
I was fucking...
152
Dead.
153
Fucked.
154
I feel fucked.
155
Like I feel completely shitty.
156
There's like so many parts, there's this You need to go and watch this TED Talk.
157
That is about sleep.
158
You will never think of sleep the same ever again.
159
So we have alcohol, we've got sleep, And then there was the third one, which was...
160
- The first time we have been in the first time, we have been in the first time.
161
I'm thinking about pornography, but that's not, you know, it's not the one that I mentioned today.
162
Sugar.
163
I'm struggling so hard these days with not eating sugar or at least keeping my hands off of
164
Sweet pastry and things like that.
165
It's it's terrible.
166
It's fucking it's so annoying because we have I work, you know, I'm a I I'm a head barista.
167
and We have Pastries, of course and you know,
168
you kind of get hungry when you're standing eight hours a day, you know?
169
And I shit you not, for the past like what?
170
Thank you.
171
week, I think.
172
maybe not a week, but I've pretty much been just every single day eating something sweet like a bon chocolat.
173
Panachoklat.
174
I don't know how to pronounce it very perfectly.
175
I'm still working on it.
176
A chocolate croissant, so to speak.
177
A fucking Berliner.
178
you know, these are like donuts filled with jam, or a fucking cookie, or a muffin, or...
179
Like anything, a brownie, you know?
180
And it's like, fuck, dude.
181
I always think to myself, "Man, I shouldn't be doing this," and I fucking do it.
182
And it's just like, fuck.
183
Fuck.
184
I had a friend say like, "Yeah, okay, I would always choose fruit over sweets, but if you put me like a jar of fruits and the fucking sweet there,
185
like it's a hard decision." And I think We need to, I want to.
186
I think life is really about finding that sweet spot of like, okay, .
187
- I think it's a good thing.
188
I always...
189
go for the fruit bowl.
190
You know, I always eat the fruit.
191
I never go for the...
192
Sweet.
193
Thank you.
194
Look at me eating salad right now.
195
I would never eat salads.
196
Like months ago, like never.
197
It's crazy how much progress I've made just for myself.
198
Anyhow.
199
Dude, I've really put my head down.
200
I mean, I really am in that where I'm putting my head down
201
and just working because I'm not posting a lot of shit about this.
202
The only thing I'm posting about is like my journaling and my playing.
203
That's fucking nuts.
204
Oh my god.
205
Well, fuck me.
206
So What was I saying again?
207
Yeah.
208
I think in life we need to...
209
Especially nowadays, because we have so many options.
210
Right?
211
we should try to Hmm.
212
choose the right thing.
213
for you, right?
214
Obviously, if the right thing for you is the cupcake, then you're not looking for the right thing.
215
What I mean by like what's the right thing for you, it's like okay.
216
- Thank you.
217
in what's your sport right
218
or what's your exercise type you it doesn't have to be
219
the gym it can be something else I mean I would obviously always recommend you lift some weights, right?
220
But it doesn't have to be.
221
Or at least the sport.
222
We should all play a sport, maybe.
223
football or uh...
224
You can do some tennis or table tennis.
225
Those are actually really fucking good for you.
226
because it activates a certain part in your brain, the eye, the eye, hands, coordination, what the fuck is it called?
227
The coordination at least.
228
It activates, you know, it has the most amount of neurons in the brain.
229
It's the part in the back, underneath.
230
Anyhow, You get to choose.
231
which sport you want to do right. So anyhow...
232
Going back.
233
Thank you.
234
life when you choose What is the right thing for you.
235
What's the right thing?
236
And then, every now and then, when you feel Like...
237
You deserve to go for the muffin, where you feel like, okay, I am in control here.
238
I'm gonna go for the muffin because you know sometimes you actually have to fight for yourself.
239
I've come to the point where I need to fight myself to go out.
240
I need to fight myself too.
241
have a muffin, to be spontaneous.
242
because I can go too far.
243
I can try to become too rigid because I'm just...
244
I'm scared.
245
I'm scared of the I'm scared of what could.
246
B. And I'm not present.
247
I'm not.. saying, I'm not trusting.
248
Thank you.
249
I'm scared of the future.
250
I hang around too much in the past. So. to end.
251
circle here for this video.
252
I would say, Watch for those three things.
253
You know?
254
and your actual step after watching this video to me would be go and have a walk.
255
Go outside and just have a walk.
256

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.
