And that's a question everyone should ask themselves.
13
It's like, what the hell do you want?
14

15
Well, first of all, you have to ask the question, right?
16
And people don't.

They're afraid to for all sorts of reasons.
18
And then you have to accept the answer.

and think that through
43
if you could admit it to yourself you know probably what you want isn't
44
that unreasonable you might be able to negotiate that with her
45
and then you'd have it and then you'd be motivated it's like
46
dare to dream you know ask yourself what do i want with the presumption
47
that you know if you're not completely blind and deluded and
48
and greedy that you could probably have it
49

55
thing you want is to know what you want there's some place to start you know
56
and you can figure it out and
57
if you aim small enough you can figure it out
58
and then so
59
if you're not motivated you're probably living someone else's dream you're
60
laboring under some false illusion you're tyrannizing yourself you're taking on too much responsibility you're using power
61
when invitation would suffice and you don't have a vision well it doesn't have to be
62
that way you could figure out a game you want to play
63
and invite yourself long and that's you can do
64
that that's how life is constituted
65
so don't think it's impossible it's not impossible i told you what was impossible stumbling miserably forward

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.
