185
and every thought and effort that you possibly have in your heart to becoming what it is you want to be.

205
It's time you punish you.
206
From now on, you're not going to hold any other human more accountable than you hold yourself.
207
It's these moments, these decisions we make on a daily basis.
208
Do we get up early and go for a run?
209
Do we hit the snooze button?
210
Do we go to that extra rep in the gym? and our bodies dying, we push past that.
211
Those inches you need to be number one then are around us every single day.
212
It's that you get up that day and do those little tiny things, the little details, the little nuggets of life.
213
That's what adds up to be the difference.
214
So I just need to think about three people that you love.
215
That person that you think about has to be louder than the snooze button.
216
So when you think about Granny,
217
you gotta think about, do I hit the snooze button or do I get up and make it happen for Granny?
218
Are you hearing what I'm saying?
219
Who you doing this for?
220
So the days you don't feel like getting up, just think about them.
221
And you don't get here by quitting when you tired.
222
You get here by quitting when you finish, when you done.
223
You don't stop when you tired.
224
You stop when you done.
225
Execution is worship.
226
And so I execute for my mom.
227
I execute for my grandma.
228
I execute for my sister.
229
That's why I can't quit and give up even though I get tired just like everybody else.
230
Why?
231
Because this is what I do.
232
This is my leg.
233
This is your way, you gotta murder it.
234
If dreams were easy, everybody would make them happy.
235
The problem is that most people, they can't get up in the morning.
236
They ain't got no energy.
237
You just ain't got the stamina.
238
You just ain't got the energy.
239
You can't smart everything.
240
You can't outthink everything.
241
Some stuff is just you gotta be powerful.
242
It's just some stuff that you gotta have stamina for.
243
You just too slow.
244
It just take you too long.
245
You wake up, take you three weeks to do what it can take 24 hours to do.
246
It's gonna make you a bad person, but you're gonna forever be average because to be great you got to keep up
247
There is no discount.
248
You can't get 50 % off.
249
It's sweat, it's blood, it's tears.
250
There are no shortcuts to success
251
Stop thinking they are and stop wanting people to put you somewhere that you didn't earn
252
Y 'all gotta do me a favor.
253
Stop being gazelle.
254
You're not average.
255
There's nothing about you that's average
256
You're not good.
257
You were born to be great.
258
So you go out there and give what's yours.
259
Do you have a heart?
260
Do you have to perseverance?
261
Do you have to commitment?
262
Do you have to consistency?
263
When I tell you that you got to make sacrifices
264
and you got to get up at three o 'clock and four o 'clock and you got to grind, why are you telling me that?
265
Why?
266
Because people don't need help sleeping in.
267
People don't need help gaining weight.
268
People don't need help overindulging, making excuses.
269
People don't need help hitting the snooze button.
270
People need help making sacrifices.
271
Yup, it's tough.
272
It's hard.
273
I'm not telling you it's going to be easy to get up at three o 'clock in the morning.
274
I'm not telling you it's gonna be easy to sacrifice.
275
I'm not telling you it's gonna be easy to grind.
276
I'm not telling you it's going to be easy, but I can tell you this.
277
It will be worth the sacrifice if you can grind your way through it.
278
No excuses, just adjustments.
279
Execute my friend, execute.
280
Some of you are in the darkest of darkest valleys.
281
I don't know what you're going through but I know what you need hope
282
and I want you to know that beautiful things can come from your broken pieces
283
when you give your broken pieces a chance it is okay to be scared it is okay to cry
284
but giving up is not i just want you to know that it's not the end it matters how you're gonna finish
285
i don't care how dark it look for you i don't care what they just said to you
286
i don't care what the verdict is i don't care what the haters say
287
it ain't over no matter what happens to you it ain't over Ain't no such a thing as over.
288
Do you know man that you can actually mess your life completely up?
289
You can jack it all the way up and you can turn around and get it right.
290
Do you know that you can be divorced multiple times and still be okay?
291
Do you understand that you cannot have a degree and still be just fine?
292
Now whatever you've been through, whatever that is, guess what?
293
you're still here.
294
You have a great life in front of you but your great life is in front of you.
295
It's not behind you.
296
Everything you're going through is preparing you for what you ask God for.
297
You just got to quit tripping while you in the process because the process is necessary.
298
You may not see it now but
299
when he gets you on the other side of it you're gonna see exactly why it went
300
that way and you're gonna be okay with it.
301
Pull yourself together and quit tripping because you in the process.
302
God is processing you.
303
He ain't through with you.
304
If he was through with you, you would not wake up in the morning.
305
When you feel like giving up, don't.
306
When you thinking about giving up, don't.
307
When it look like you ain't gonna make it keep going
308
when they tell you you can't come on man who are they
309
when they tell you to put all your stuff back on your desk don't do
310
that man don't do that
311
when they tell you you're not gonna make it don't believe them man don't believe them you got to be
312
relentless and i'm saying to you what if all of us took
313
that attitude after we face a rejection and a no one, we have a meeting and no one shows up.
314
Or somebody say, you can count on me.
315
And they don't come through.
316
Nobody believes in you.
317
You've lost again and again and again.
318
The lights are cut off.
319
But you're still looking at your dream, reviewing it every day and say to yourself, it's not over until I win.
320
The harder the battle, the sweeter the victory.
321
See, what you become in the process is more important than the dream.
322
That's far more important.
323
The kind of person you become, the character that you built, the courage that you develop, the faith that you're manifesting.
324
Oh, it's something that you get up in the morning, you look yourself in the mirror, you're a different kind of person.
325
You walk with a different kind of spirit.
326
People know that you know what life is, that you have embraced life.
327
You know it was hard, but you did it hard.
328
Everybody wants to prize but nobody loves the process.
329
Everybody wants to be a champion but nobody's willing to put in the work that it takes to be a champion.
330
Everybody wants to hold up the trophy and say man I did it
331
but nobody's willing to put in the work that it takes to do it.
332
I love the process.
333
I love the thought of working for what I want.
334
And I firmly believe you never supposed to wish for it more than you're willing to work for it
335
But a lot of people they wish and they're not willing to work a
336
Real man in the dark when nobody's watching he put me in work
337
Cuz he lost the process
338
Cuz real lions like to hunt they love the process
339
Just as much as they love the prize and some of y 'all just want to score you don't like the process
340
Championships aren't won in the theater or the arena.
341
They're won in the thousands of hours in the training room, in the labs, in the 5am runs, and it's raining, whenever else is sleeping.
342
That's when it's won.
343
I'm here today.
344
I'm an ordinary person.
345
But I focused on my craft.
346
I had a burning desire to be excellent.
347
I love what I do.
348
It's my oxygen.
349
It's my DNA.
350
At 4 in the morning I get up and I'm working on my craft because I love it.
351
It's the hidden work.
352
Now look at it as like a rock, and that rock is you.
353
And every day you fight not wanting to get up, and you do anyway.
354
You chip another piece off that rock.
355
And every day you go to train, you train harder and harder and harder and harder.
356
And you get up earlier, and all these things you do to start forming yourself, you're chipping another piece of that rock off.
357
Before you know it, that rock, it becomes the masterpiece in which you created.
358
The heart of a champion is a light switch that's always on.
359
It doesn't go on and off when someone's watching.
360
It's constant.
361
It's how you look at something if your name is attached to it, then you do it right.
362
The best of your ability every single time.
363
Do the job right or don't do it at all.
364
That's the same person who has his hand raised on the podium one day.
365
Same motherf*.
366
It's what I did in the dark that blew me up.
367
It is in practicing.
368
It is in lifting weights.
369
It is in resting.
370
It is in eating right.
371
It is in making good decisions that you look a certain way.
372
It is how you practice.
373
It is what you do that makes you look like you look.
374
It is the process of the grind that shapes you and forms you.
375
The real grind is in the dark when nobody sees you.
376
When nobody knows what you're doing, when you're putting in those extra reps, when you're watching those videos and you're getting inspired,
377
when you change your music, it's the process that makes you sweet.
378
I'm talking about the commitment that says, I am going to stay true to what I said I would do long after the mood
379
that I've set it in is left.
380
You gotta begin with the end in mind, so whatever your dream or your goal is, you gotta wake up every day to it.
381
You gotta go to bed with it.
382
You gotta read stuff, the music you listen to, Everything you do gotta pour into that dream.
383
I understand it is in the process that you get better.
384
I am not phenomenally skilled, but I'm phenomenally willed.
385
My IQ may never change, but my will changes.
386
Every year I get stronger and stronger and more determined.
387
Why?
388
Because it's in my DNA.
389
When you dedicate your life, you don't care anything about the odds.
390
When the dream is big enough, the odds don't matter.
391
Giving it all, it can be confusing to mediocre people.
392
When they talk sh, you keep grinding.
393
Work hard in silence and let your success speak for you.
394
You keep talking smack and I'll keep working.
395
You keep focusing on everything and everyone else and I'll keep working.
396
Instead of killing them with kindness, torture and success.
397
Build the kind of life that says I told you so without having to say a fking word.
398
While most people stop when they're tired, I stop when I'm done.
399
The only thing limiting your horizons is you.
400
My glory doesn't happen in front of a crowd.
401
It doesn't happen in a stadium or on a stage.
402
There are no medals handed out.
403
It happens in the darkness of the early morning. In solitude.
404
Where I try.
405
And I try.
406
And I try again.
407
with everything I have to be the best
408

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.
