Now, there is one habit that millions of people do every single day, and chances are this is something that you do as well,

and this is slowly destroying your focus, your ability to concentrate, your mental health.

And the scary thing about this one habit is most people, they think it is normal, but it's not normal.

And in fact, we thrive without it.

So why are we even doing it?

Well, let me explain.

I'm going to first give you some context so that everything makes sense.

Part number one, that familiar feeling.

Have you ever had that day, that one day where you just feel off, right?

You feel just drained.

You feel tired.

You feel like there's something off.

Your brain feels foggy.

You can't focus.

And even simple tasks feel way heavier than they should.

And for a second, you thought that you were the only one going through that.

But then you talk to other people, you talk to friends, and you find out that actually a lot of people go through that.

A lot of people have those same symptoms of, you know, whatever that might be.

Now, I want to do a study just out of curiosity.

Comment weird in the comments below if you have felt that feeling before.

The feeling of just, you know, being in a rut, the feeling of not having everything figured out

and feeling almost like a little bit confused about your life, feeling down, feeling drained.

So I'm curious to see how many of you actually experience that from time to time, you know, whether that's once a week,

whether that's every day or a couple of times a week.

Now, if you watch my videos, you are going to love the content and the videos that are coming next.

So subscribe to the channel and let's go to part number two, isolation.

Now, the habit that you don't realize is making you miserable, is harming your mental health and ruining your focus, is isolation.

And this is not just in the sense of being alone.

Let me explain.

So this has everything to do with your environment.

Basically, if you're in a big environment, right?

If you're in an open environment, if you're outside in nature, then your mind is going to be producing big thoughts.

But if you're in a small environment all the time,

you're just in your room and you don't leave your room and you're just home all the time,

then your brain is going to start producing negative thoughts and small thoughts that have no capacity for growth.

Basically, your environment and dictates your thoughts.

So the actual number one habit is not just staying in your room, that's part of it, but it's also just isolation in general.

And a lot of the times when you do stay in your room all the time,

when you stay in your house all the time, you are isolated.

So I have noticed with myself firsthand the days that I stay home.

So I had a few days where I was sick last week.

This was like two days and I didn't leave the house.

Like I barely left the house and I just felt like my mental health, you know, I just felt so unclear.

I had all this brain fog and my mental health wasn't in the right place.

And at first I didn't really make the connection.

And I'm like, maybe I'm just feeling off or I'm feeling like this because I don't know something else happened.

But then I made the connection and it became very, very clear.

The only reason I was feeling the way that I was, which was, you know, lack of focus,

lack of clarity was just because I needed a environment switch.

I needed to just change environment and go outside and do something else.

And as soon as I realized that everything changed for me because then I started to go outside again and,

you know, get out of my old routine and start a new routine.

And I started to feel lively again.

I started to feel like my best version.

Just one small switch, one small thing that I did.

And all of a sudden I started to feel this influx of energy.

And I started to feel like I was vibrating at a very high frequency.

Now, the truth is being isolated is messing with you.

It is physically, mentally, and emotionally messing with you.

Literally one day or two days is enough for you to actually start to feel these things.

And the problem is once it starts, it's too late.

So pretty much isolating yourself, being home alone all day and not going outside, not going out into nature and going,

exercising, moving your body and freeing up your mind.

It makes you feel bad.

And because you feel bad, you're going to want to do the same things again.

You're going to want to stay home because you feel bad.

And then that's going to make you feel even worse.

And then the cycle just continues and repeats itself.

Like you should be spending a lot of time outside your house, right?

Even if you have work and even if you're doing home office, remote work, it doesn't matter.

You can just go to a cafe, take out your laptop and work over there.

Just change up environment.

There are so many things you can do that will literally shape your mental space.

Because if you really think about it, all the success that you want is just waiting for you to be in the right state.

The right emotional state, the right mental state and physical state.

To be the person who deserves that success.

If you're not the person who is aligned with your goals, with your visions, with everything you want to achieve,

then you're not going to get there.

And one very big thing is it starts with environment because your environment shapes the person you become.

And then the person you become attracts the life that aligns with that.

Now, part number three, the good day protocol.

So this is a protocol.

If you follow this protocol, which is a list of habits and steps, then every day will be a good day.

Your average day will be way better and even the bad days won't be as bad.

So number one is get outside first thing in the morning, right?

For your circadian rhythm, you wanna get sunlight into your eyes right after you wake up.

And just the feeling of being outside first thing in the morning is unparalleled.

There is nothing like it.

Now, number two is call a friend, text somebody, or have a real life conversation.

Because the moment you stop talking to people, you start talking to yourself.

You're literally deflecting your own ideas and thoughts back to yourself.

And then you just have this feedback loop and it never gets quieter.

So instead, you're going to want to deflect your energy somewhere else.

You're going to want to talk to somebody, exchange your ideas, and just talk about your goals to a close friend, talk about what you're feeling,

and just talking to people, sharing your ideas, bouncing your life goals, and just saying what you want to say and expressing yourself to somebody else.

That is really powerful.

Number three is exercise once per day.

So exercising outdoors is obviously the best case scenario, but you can also exercise indoors.

Also, a big thing about, you know, staying home is if you stay home, chances are you are not going to exercise.

100

You're going to be stationary.

101

You're going to be sedentary all day.

102

Now, that is very bad for your mental health.

103

It's very bad for your focus, for your general health as well.

104

So one thing you can implement at home is stretching, you know, movement, making sure that you're moving your body.

105

You can stretch on a pull -up bar.

106

You can stretch on a yoga mat you can stretch anywhere and for however long that you want.

107

But stretching is just, it releases tension in your mind.

108

And the fourth and final thing that is going to change everything is having you moments more often, right?

109

The moment where you don't have your phone, you don't have music, you don't have external stimulus and you're just by yourself with your thoughts.

110

That is so important because you're just giving yourself the space to think,

111

the space to be the best version of yourself and the space to be creative.

112

Because if you constantly have, you know, things that you have to do and you always have your phone and you always have like,

113

you're always watching a video, always doing something.

114

You never give yourself the real chance to reset.

115

So give yourself that moment of freedom and allow yourself to just start from scratch.

116

So I had a phase in my life where I was pretty isolated for a long time, right?

117

And what I did there is I started to surround myself with the right people.

118

And ever since then, my life started to change.

119

I started to do all of the good habits,

120

surround myself with the right people and with the right knowledge and the right media and the right content as well.

121

Everything that goes into shaping your environment and shaping the person that you are,

122

you have to really monitor your inputs because your inputs create the life that you live.

123

Take care and you got this.

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.
