Just like that remote.

38
if you want something bad enough
39
you can't let anybody tell you you can't do something not even yourself doubt is such a strange thing
40
i mean it's um you know there'll be times where you succeed there are times
41
that you fail so wasting your time doubting whether you're going to be successful or not is pointless
42
it is you just put one foot in front of the other you control what you can't control
43
and then you see what the outcome is right
44
if you win great you're going to have to wake up the next day
45
and do the journey over again if you lose sucks
46
but you have to wake up the next day
47
and do the journey all over again anyway right
48
so it's really pointless to sit here and debate or have doubt
49
or just any other you train as hard as you can you step out there
50
and you let it flow after you lose or
51
when you get knocked down stay down there for a minute understand why you lost
52
what were the reasons why are you down here why did you lose why did you get knocked down
53
because if you just jump right back up you're gonna lose again
54
and again and you continue you're going to lose the same way.
55
Don't be afraid to fail.
56
Because if you're afraid to fail, then you're always holding yourself back because you're afraid that if you go all out, you may fail.
57
The only thing you can ever do in life is work as hard as you possibly can and never give in.
58
And he said you've got that choice every single day.
59
Really simple.
60
That's it.
61
The talent you've got, you just work as hard as you can every single day and never give in,
62
and then you come back the day after and do it again.
63
In order to train as hard as possible, you must retain a clear image of your purpose.
64
Once your goal is sharply but realistically defined, all that remains is carrying out your plan.
65
The focus, the commitment, the dedication to make sure every single day you get up
66
and you're here and you give your all and you don't give in.
67
That's the hardest thing in the world.
68
To get up every day and give 100 % and be in the same position that you were each day,
69
but mentally know that you're trying and trying and trying.
70
That's a real grind.
71
Don't, however, worry about your individual potential.
72
The tension was only the expression of a possibility something that could be assessed accurately only in retrospect
73
In other words, you'll never know how good you might have become unless you try.
74
Yeah Okay, how good you are in anything you won't have discipline you ain't nobody right?
75
Nothing about discipline because you give up on the slightest struggle without discipline
76
But this when he told me discipline do what you hate to do, but do it like you love it
77
Doing what you hate to do, but do it like you love it.
78
That is a great quote.
79
The quality of self -discipline.
80
It's the ability to make yourself do what you should do, when you should do it, whether you feel like it or not.
81
Did you do what you said you were going to do by this time?
82
And if you don't, hold your feet to the fire.
83
I mean just sitting around dreaming someday someday
84
I'm gonna get a different job someday I'm gonna change this well someday in the day of the week
85
you know there's Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Friday Saturday Sunday look on your counter some days not on there
86
so you got to say okay I'm gonna take
87
this small step by here this small step by there this small step by there
88
and then pretty soon you know we don't leaps tall buildings in a single bound
89
we take it a floor at a time
90
that you got to shoot for the top because we go
91
and really have big goals and think big because then you're going to get big.
92
Then you're going to go and achieve big things.
93
That is the most important thing.
94
We don't achieve big things by accident.
95
So shoot for the top, shoot for the sky.
96
If you have a clear picture in your head of something that is going to happen
97
and a clear belief in that it will happen no matter what, then nothing can stop it.
98
It is destined to happen and that's what happens.
99
And the reason that you are not as great as you could be is because you can't take pain.
100
The reason that you are aborted is because you get frustrated
101
and disappointed with the slow pace of the fulfillment of your desire.
102
So you abort the process and wonder why you're a bum on life's highway.
103
Like this is what hard feels like and this is why most people don't win.
104
So continuing to push through and almost seeing that level of discomfort as a signal, it's like a way marker that's been planted in the ground.
105
Yes, more this way.
106
Because if it was all just super easy, well, how are you going to get anything different to what everybody else has got
107
if you do the same thing that everybody else does?
108
And one of the best selectors for people not doing a thing is discomfort.
109
So the route that has a lot of discomfort down it usually on the other side of
110
that ends up with something which is valuable
111
a lot of people can give up it's easy to give up hell yeah
112
it's the easiest thing in the world to do all right
113
i'm done i ain't going i ain't gonna keep going yeah
114
i don't feel like going to work yeah it's easy it's very easy
115
but what's hard is going yo yesterday i got nothing from working as hard as i could nothing happened from
116
that i'm gonna do the same thing again today but i'm gonna try to go harder.
117
Life has to be hard.
118
It has to be difficult in some ways.
119
It doesn't have to be, shouldn't be traumatic, shouldn't be awful or painful,
120
but things have to be hard for you to learn to do hard things.
121
And this world, like it or not, is going to demand that you do hard shit if you want to have anything.
122
Work on your list of whys.
123
One of the big thrusts for success is to come up with a strong enough why.
124
In leadership training, here's what we learned.
125
If the why is powerful, the how is easy.
126
What's the chance of you making a million dollars this year?
127
Give me numbers.
128
And everyone's like, 0%, 0%, 0%.
129
1%.
130
There's always 1%.
131
It's like 5%.
132
And that's like the most it'll get to.
133
And I said, okay, I'm gonna give you the most extreme example, but I just want to see what happens.
134
Okay.
135
What's the percentage chance of you making a million dollars this year legally
136
and if you don't everyone that you love dies
137
and everyone's like 100 100 a thousand a thousand percent
138
i said what changed the goal didn't change the time frame didn't change why you're doing
139
it changed would you wake up in the morning if everyone
140
that you loves life depended on it
141
and be like yeah well maybe i should scroll on tick tock for a little
142
while no you'd be like i'm gonna take action immediately and
143
so it doesn't need to be like A fear of losing everybody
144
but what's really behind that is like why if you stay in your comfort zone?
145
That's why you will fail
146
You will fail in your comfort zone success is not a comfortable procedure
147
It is a very uncomfortable thing to attempt
148
so you got to get comfortable being uncomfortable if you ever want to be
149
Successful most things are actually significantly easier than people think they are they just don't know how to try hard
150
because the harder that you try the easier it gets and
151
so it's like
152
if you can just learn to love what trying hard feels like then all of a sudden it becomes unreasonable
153
that you can't win don't leave it and go oh
154
if I just would uh -uh
155
that keeps me up at night I think keeps a lot of us up at night
156
and you half -ass something you just don't know whether you failed
157
or succeeded got what you want or didn't get what you want finding out and looking in the mirror and going,
158
I didn't have acid, I went all the way, I found out and that ain't for me.
159
Or I found out and you damn right that is for me.
160
That's a great place to get to.
161
You have to disappear.
162
You still go to work, you still show up, but you stop announcing every move and start building something that speaks for itself.
163
Disappearing means doing the work.
164
It means doing the work in the dark.
165
It means building in private what you don't need to prove in public.
166
It means doing the work when no one's watching.
167
You stop worrying about what people think and start valuing what you believe.
168
Because a life that looks good or sounds good is nothing compared to a life that feels good.
169
You get to work your butt off.
170
If you think that you're going to go and accomplish something really special and be the best in anything in the world,
171
and you think you can do it without working, you make a big mistake.
172
Because no matter what I did, if it was in bodybuilding or in acting or if it was in the political arena,
173
it always took a lot, a lot of work.
174
And you got to put out and you got to, you know, something to make a lot of sacrifices and all this.
175
If you're not willing to work hard, forget about it.
176
Nine -year -old son, John Leslie, and I beat him 10 straight games in a game called Connect Four.
177
And finally, I said, John Leslie, I'm bored i don't want to play you anymore
178
and i got up i said i'm ready to go to sleep now
179
and repeat out to me please let's say to this together it's not over
180
until i win
181
john leslie said no you can't go now dad i said why he said it's not over until i win
182
that was his attitude we sat down and we played several other games
183
and finally after the 11th game john leslie won
184
and he got up and he yawned
185
and he said i'm ready to go to sleep now
186
and i'm saying to you what if all of us took
187
that attitude after we face a rejection and a no
188
or we have a meeting and no one shows up
189
or somebody say you can count on me
190
and they don't come through what if we have
191
that kind of attitude the cause repossessed nobody believes in you you've lost again
192
and again and again the lights are cut off
193
but you're still looking at your dream reviewing it every day
194
and say to yourself
195
it's not over until i win persistence is self -discipline in action every time
196
you persist you build your self -discipline every time you practice self -discipline you build your ability to persist
197
and the two of them are tied into your self -esteem
198
so the more you persist the more you like yourself
199
and the more you like yourself the more discipline you have
200
and the more discipline you have in practice the more you like yourself as a result the more you persist
201
and eventually you get onto an upper spiral where you become absolutely unstoppable
202
you reach the point where you know you can achieve the goal
203
and nothing in the world can stop you and every step
204
that you take forward makes you stronger and stronger
205
and stronger there is no one like you there has never been anyone like you there shall never be anyone like you
206
Therefore, know yourself, be yourself.
207
Authenticity is everything.

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?

Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
