How's it going?
2
Very beautiful.
3
As you can see.

about a year ago i went to hawaii for the first time by myself barely even had a plan
5
I went there with $400 and I stayed at various hostels and places where you can work to stay for free.
6
After the first week, I got bored of the hostel I was at
7
and I met these two guys named Brandon and Plasma.
8
we were sitting on this deck in front of the ocean
9
and they were playing guitar i always gravitate towards music like
10
if there's a street performer or someone playing an instrument you'll probably find me around
11
that person anyway so i like these guys and they told me
12
if i ever needed a place to stay they hit them up Right.
13
So I left the place I was staying and I had nowhere to go.
14
And I messaged Brandon and I said,
15
hey, I'm taking your offer.
16
I want to stay with you guys wherever it is.
17
So I ended up sleeping on a bench that night because they weren't there yet.
18
I slept on a bench in the rain for the first
19
time i've always had a home i never had to sleep outside like
20
that so that was a pretty new experience anyway the next day brandon comes
21
and well both of them come and they pick me up in this pickup truck
22
but there was no room to sit in the truck
23
so i had to sit in the bed of the truck
24
which is fine but we were going on a highway
25
so they were driving like 60 miles per hour
26
and I'm just sitting in the back of this bed of this truck right
27
and I remember thinking to myself
28
if they crash right now I will die like I'm in
29
a position where I could just cease to exist in this body
30
and at first it was a little scary to think that
31
and then I was realizing
32
or not realizing I was gathering faith you know I've always
33
had a connection with life with a lot of people call it God I like to call it God sometimes
34
but it's really just a faith in the higher order of things
35
that everything happens for a reason and I started leaning into that and then I closed my eyes
36
while I'm in the bed of the truck going 60 miles per hour
37
and I relaxed I fully relaxed and in that moment of being in
38
that situation and relaxing and having faith in a moment where it feels like there's a risk.
39
I felt the most peace and empowerment I've ever,
40
I felt super charged with energy.
41
Now, the reason I'm telling you the story is because I was reminded of it just now.
42
I was thinking of today,
43
I went snowboarding and I was riding on the ski lift
44
and there was a part of the ski lift where it
45
was like 50 feet 60 feet off the ground maybe more
46
and I was just looking down I was like whoa
47
if I fall that would not be good I'll probably die
48
or something and I got that feeling again I got
49
that feeling and then I did the same thing I relaxed I closed my eyes
50
and I had faith
51
and the same phenomenon happened I had the super charge of energy the peace
52
and and this isn't the main thing really it's
53
this kind of applies to everything i'm just bringing up moments
54
that i can remember of like an extreme surrender not an
55
extreme really i've had much more extreme surrendering moments than that
56
but i just think there's a power in it it's it's possibly one of the deepest powers
57
that we have access to is surrender um and really to overcome fear what does that take like
58
what does it take to overcome fear
59
i think the first step is to figure out what you're afraid of
60
so for example if i'm sitting in the ski lift
61
and i see the fall why am i scared of it what am i scared of
62
and i came to the conclusion
63
that i was scared of pain now me personally i'm not scared of the unknown i'm not scared of death
64
and I don't think I'm scared of pain anymore I don't I don't think I'm scared of anything
65
and it feels good to be able to say that
66
and a lot of people might doubt
67
and say well you can sit there in your beautiful heavenly location and say you're not scared of anything
68
but when it comes time when when things get real do you feel fear then
69
and i don't think i will but
70
if i do then i'll tell you if the moment comes about
71
and how did i get to this moment or this place of fearlessness
72
because it's pretty new to me
73
and the past like it's a continual thing like i keep having to face more
74
and more fears i faced my own death i've faced uh
75
many things mostly the big ones were facing my own death
76
and experiencing surrender in various situations but i thought of a quote the other day
77
And it says, the end of fear is the beginning of freedom.
78
The end of fear is the beginning of freedom.
79
So I can't really tell you how to get rid of your fear
80
because I don't know all I know is that you can
81
and I know that I did
82
and how I did it was by facing my fears
83
and I know that sounds simple because it is but it's very powerful
84
and I think the world would be a better place
85
if all of us overcame fear if all of us reached a place of fearlessness and freedom within ourselves
86
if i'm a little shaky it's because it's so cold it's very cold Anyway,
87
for the past week or so,
88
I keep telling myself I'm done being afraid.
89
And it's not even like,
90
it doesn't even really feel like a choice in a sense.
91
It kind of just feels like I'm done.
92
Like I'm tired of it.
93
Like I've used up all my fear.
94
Like I just, I don't have it in me.
95
I don't have the energy to be afraid of anything.
96
I keep telling myself I'm done.
97
I'm done with this.
98
I'm done being afraid.
99
I'm done.
100
And the more I let go,
101
in a sense, the more I trust the higher order of things,
102
the plan, I like to call it,
103
which I have had glimpses of.
104
I have seen glimpses of the plan,
105
the perfect plan the the blueprint behind this whole experience
106
if you will
107
and i'm just trusting it it's an irrational it's irrational for me to trust it
108
because it's no i have no proof i don't have i
109
don't have the manuscript i can't pull out a paper written by god
110
that says everything's gonna be okay i don't have any guarantee
111
that everything really is okay but something within me tells me
112
that everything is okay there's a little voice and i trust it and i'm gonna keep trusting it
113
because i have a feeling that the more i trust
114
that everything will be okay the more i let go of my fear of my anticipation
115
and allow myself to freely enjoy the present moment for no reason other than because it feels right
116
and i have a feeling that the more i do
117
that the more it's going to open up the more i
118
trust the more it trusts me the more worthy in a sense i will be of everything ever
119
but to become worthy you have to earn the spot it's like growing up
120
but some people never really grow up some people they they stop developing
121
but i don't intend on that
122
but here's the thing it's not i'm not forcing it i'm
123
not brute forcing trying to just grow grow learn learn no it's actually the opposite i'm letting go releasing
124
and as i release and let go i find an openness which in turn invites a space for growth,
125
creates a space for growth. But it's not effort.
126
There is no effort, which might sound counterintuitive.
127
so i am manifesting with my voice with my intention with
128
my energy with my words with this present moment all of the universe has come together for this moment right now
129
for me to say that i am beckoning forth an era of freedom of fearlessness of openness
130
if not just for myself but for everybody that i can influence
131
because i find that
132
if i go to this new realm where there's no fear where anything is possible where you can relax
133
because everything really is okay everything really will always be okay
134
and everything always happens for a reason this is the existence in
135
which i exist in
136
which through me will create a portal for you who are
137
you i don't know who am i i don't know but you and i can both be in this place
138
of okayness where everything really is okay it's really okay
139
and this is how it is now as i speak everything really is okay right now i have created it if not
140
if i didn't create it i have found it i have
141
pinpointed myself in this position where everything is okay where i have no fear
142
and where anything can happen and i have full faith that everything will happen as it should
143
for if not me you as well right now just like that just like that the power that we both have to create and
144
if not to create to find to magnetize ourselves to the place where everything is okay it is it's
145
so beautiful and i'm just doing
146
that right now as i speak here we are we're in the place right now is
147
that not amazing that we have this ability is that not beautiful
148
that we have this ability if that's not beautiful i don't know what is maybe this view
149
I don't know if the view is really as beautiful though anyway
150
I'm done being afraid I'm ready to enjoy my life and I hope you feel the same
151
so thank you for sharing this moment and I hope to see you again in the future.

Informazioni su questa lezione

In questa lezione, gli studenti di inglese avranno l'opportunità di migliorare la loro pronuncia e fluency attraverso una tecnica di apprendimento chiamata "shadowing". Utilizzando il racconto di un viaggio personale, imparerai come affrontare le paure e vivere nuove esperienze, mentre pratichi la tua capacità di ascolto e parlato. Questo approccio ti permetterà di affinare la tua intonazione e ritmo, aspetti fondamentali per migliorare la pronuncia inglese e acquisire maggiore confidenza nel parlato.

Vocabolario e frasi chiave

  • Fear - paura
  • Freedom - libertà
  • Experience - esperienza
  • Connection with life - connessione con la vita
  • Faith - fede
  • Relax - rilassarsi
  • Empowerment - potenziamento
  • Trust the journey - fidati del viaggio

Consigli per la pratica

Durante il tuo esercizio di shadow speak, cerca di riprodurre non solo le parole, ma anche il tono e l'emozione dell'oratore. Considera la velocità della conversazione nel video come un'opportunità per allenarti. Inizia ascoltando attentamente un breve estratto e poi prova a ripeterlo immediatamente dopo, mantenendo il ritmo del parlante. Questo metodo di shadow speech ti aiuterà a migliorare la tua fluidità e pronuncia.

In particolare, osserva come vengono usate le pause e le infrazioni per dare espressione al discorso. Non aver paura di fallire: il processo di apprendimento implica anche errori, quindi rilassati e goditi l'esperienza. Ogni volta che chiudi gli occhi durante la pratica, immagina di essere nella situazione raccontata. Questo ti permetterà di ottenere una migliore connessione emotiva con il linguaggio, aumentando la tua abilità nel shadowspeaks.

Infine, pratica regolarmente e ascolta la tua voce mentre parli: questo ti aiuterà non solo a riconoscere i tuoi progressi, ma anche a identificare le aree in cui puoi migliorare ulteriormente il tuo inglese.

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.
