Creazione lezione...
1
Success really just boils down to this.
2
You've got to want it more than you hate what it takes to get it.
3
If you're willing to suck at anything for 100 days in a row, you can beat most people at most things.
4
Clean your room.
5
Organize your life.
6
Like, get a routine.
7
Get up every day at the same time.
8
Go to bed at the same time.
9
Establish disciplined habits.
10
That will help a lot.
11
Schedule.
12
Here's how to use a schedule.
13
Sit down and open the calendar and think, okay, well, here's what I'm going to do i'm going to design a week of days
14
that i would really like to have so what
15
that would mean then is that you would schedule things
16
that you would consider meaningful and productive you know on a daily basis
17
so that you feel that your life is justified by having a day like
18
that and also to schedule enough of your responsibilities so
19
that you make progress day by day instead of falling farther behind don't start things
20
and not finish them you don't quit there's nothing
21
that comes out of quitting besides knowing
22
that you didn't finish we finish everything you start it finish it
23
if you're gonna do it do it to try
24
and be the best know what your intent as the commander of your life know what your intent is
25
and then fight with everything you've got to win
26
toughness is not about how many push -ups you can do
27
or what you can put bench press
28
or how far you can run um toughness is in the mind
29
and your body can be the most perfect the most conditioned specimen
30
but if you don't have a tough mind
31
if you don't have a toughness of the mind
32
if you don't have a tough will you're not tough
33
but i'm gonna try my best to stay consistent yes
34
because i believe when i'm consistent i can build on consistency not just in my life
35
but in several areas and aspects of my life
36
that are tied to different people and
37
so I believe in the power of consistency not saying
38
that one has to just stay going at whatever it is
39
that they doing because you might need a break
40
and it's all good but just speaking to me and my purpose
41
and how I operate I believe in staying consistent
42
and sometimes just changing my aim and my focus and altering it on certain days when different situations and circumstances pop up.
43
One day in the gym is basically imperceivable two days in
44
the gym you don't recognize any change whatsoever a hundred days in the gym
45
and you're almost a new person you're not having a bad year
46
you've had a few bad days that you're thinking about for the rest of the year
47
i've found it helpful
48
when i'm in a bad season like i'm in right now
49
to just focus on having a good day a good day
50
in a bad season is a bite -sized victory string a few of those in a row
51
and a bad season feels less hard.
52
I'm pretty sure the difference between a happy life
53
and an unhappy one doesn't come down to how many good or bad days you have, but which days you think about over and over again.
54
In some seasons of life, maintaining is winning.
55
Why not believe in it?
56
What's the other option?
57
There is no other option.
58
It's a life forgotten, man.
59
In the acting world, if I go to the audition, I have a chance of getting a part.
60
If I don't go to the audition.
61
I'm out of the game.
62
I know the outcome.
63
Nothing.
64
Show up.
65
If you get knocked on your ass, show up.
66
At least you have a possibility.
67
You have a chance.
68
You have a voice of doing something with your life.
69
No matter how big your dreams, you're going to die.
70
Everyone will move on.
71
Do what you want.
72
It sucks to not be liked, but it sucks more to not be yourself.
73
mind you see the underdog story is the realest story there is because when you come from nothing
74
you appreciate everything you hustle different you love different and you lead different no matter how bad it is going to be
75
when there is a challenge
76
and by a challenge i mean anything in life any any challenge anything
77
that you're facing the only way to overcome the challenges that you face is to start walking
78
take that step if you aren't naturally tired at night
79
and excited in the morning then you probably haven't found something
80
meaningful to work on you are not stressed from doing too
81
much you are stressed from doing too little of what you care about i said we have more what you got
82
You'll be happy.
83
Me, I want what's coming to me.
84
Oh, what's coming to you, Tom?
85
The world, Chico. And everything in it.
86
He said, I want what all other men want.
87
He said, I guarantee you, when I line up and they line up, I want what all other men want.
88
I guarantee you, when you line up in your one -on -one battles, you want what all other men want.
89
The same way you want the victory, they want the victory.
90
I want what all other men want.
91
He said, but when the pressure hits, when the opposition hits, when the challenge hits, when the pain creeps in, when the uncertainty creeps in,
92
when the cuts, when the scars, when the bruises come, I want what all other men want.
93
He said, but when the opposition and adversity shows up, I just want a little bit more than they wanted.
94
And so that's how I conquer, and that's how nobody has ever beaten me yet.
95
I just want one thing from you.
96
as great as you are, as skilled as you are, as talented as you are, I just want one thing from you.
97
Never allow life to make you forget why you do what you do.
98
People don't burn out, people don't quit, people don't underachieve, people don't settle because of what they do.
99
People burn out, people quit, people underachieve, and people settle because life makes them forget why they do it.
100
Stay humble.
101
Never forget where you came from.
102
Stay hungry.
103
Keep that fire in your soul and stay true always be real with yourself
104
and the world because the world don't need no more copies it need originals
105
and trust me ain't nobody else that can do what you do like you do
106
and you're gonna fail and you're gonna fail and you're gonna fail
107
and you're gonna fail
108
and then you're gonna win a lot of people wait for perfect conditions to start don't realize
109
that starting is the perfect condition tired don't mean nothing tired is only in the mind
110
you tell yourself you're tired you're gonna be tired i don't get tired it doesn't matter how hard you work
111
that i'm willing to work harder than you rest at the
112
end not in the middle you have one life don't settle for mediocrity life without those challenges it's existence don't just exist.
113
Go live.
114
We're not on this stage just because of talent or ability.
115
We're up here because of 4 a .m.
116
We're up here because of two a days or five a days.
117
We're up here because we had a dream and let nothing stand in our way.
118
There's no excuse not to be the hardest mother worker in the room.
119
Everyone is jealous of what you've got.
120
No one is jealous of how you got it.
121
The only true test of intelligence is
122
if you get what you want out of life
123
and there are two parts to that one is getting what you want
124
so you know how to get it
125
and the second is wanting the right things knowing what to
126
want in the first place whenever i get to a low point where i think why do i even bother
127
i just remind myself this is where most people stop
128
and this is why they don't win and this relates to another one
129
which is a reminder for the gladiators in the arena who feel beat up
130
and scarred with no hope in sight building a business is
131
hard hard feels shitty this is what hard feels like
132
and this is why most people can't do it
133
but you can two forms of pain pain that breaks you
134
and the pain
135
that changes you that's the pain of the change right there that's the pain of progress the pain
136
that destroys you isn't this it's later in life knowing you could have been more
137
and all that's left is you and the mirror and tears of a possibility left
138
and all your endeavors schoolwork the gym your career your relationship
139
your needs attached to it it's got to mean more than anything definition of success is win
140
or lose giving everything you've got and growing
141
or learning along the way then you're setting yourself up for
142
success I really think the biggest cheat code in life is just going after it
143
and not being concerned of whether
144
or not you fail at one specific task instead understanding the big picture what your long -term goal is
145
and knowing if you keep driving forward
146
and never quit in the end you will succeed we must
147
constantly look at things in a different way boys you must strive to find your own voice
148
because the longer you wait to begin the less likely you
149
are to find it at all thoreau said most men lead lives of quiet desperation don't be resigned to
150
that never try to be better than someone else always learn from others
151
and never cease trying to be the best you could be that's under your control
152
and if you get too engrossed and involved
153
and concerned in regard to things over
154
which you have no control it will adversely affect the things over
155
which you have control
156
if you make the effort do the best of what you're capable trying to improve the situation
157
that exists for you I think that's success
158
and I don't think others can judge that
159
and I think it's like character and reputation losers let it happen winners make it happen Losers see thunderstorms.
160
Winners see rainbows.
161
Losers see icy streets.
162
Winners put on their ice skates.
163
Losers take chances.
164
Winners make choices.
165
It's all in the way you choose to think.
166
Use your imagination.
167
See yourself already in possession of the good you desire.
168
That will flip your mind onto a specific frequency, and you do think on frequencies.
169
It's on that frequency that good you desire is going to start coming toward you, and you will start moving toward it
170
if you want to attract what you actually want you've got to see yourself now already with it
171
and know it's only a period of time until you're moving toward it
172
and it moving toward you
173
and you become one with it the truly philosophical man is
174
the man who is entirely in control of his own soul who takes utter
175
and complete moral responsibility for his actions and is indifferent to everything else not
176
because he doesn't care about other people not
177
because he doesn't care about the felicity of the entire human species
178
but because it's not under his control there's no use wondering
179
or worrying about what tomorrow will bring since tomorrow isn't under your control do what's right today
180
and let tomorrow take care of itself
181
and i tell people this all the time there's no future
182
in cool that's a trend that's a fad it comes
183
and it goes just like dope money dope money comes quick
184
and leaves quicker okay we're here for a slow but a foresaw.
185
This is a marathon, not a sprint.
186
Paso corto, vista larga, which is short steps, long vision.
187
There's a saying that if you do what you love, you will never work a day in your life.
188
At Apple, I learned that is a total crock.
189
You will work harder than you ever thought possible, but the tools will feel light in your hands.
190
Having a clue is overrated.
191
There's this funny myth that people actually know what they're doing.
192
I've spent time around some of the richest, smartest, highest status people on the planet, and let me tell you, it's idiots all the way up.
193
Normalize saying, I don't have a clue.
194
I'm going to work out how to do it anyway.
195
There are more possible games of chess than there are atoms in the universe.
196
No one could possibly predict them all, even you.
197
Which means that that first move can be terrifying.
198
It's the furthest point from the end of the game.
199
There's a virtually infinite sea of possibilities between you
200
and the other side but it also means that if you make a mistake
201
there's a nearly infinite amount of ways to fix it so you should simply relax
202
and play you don't set them a bar that's so high
203
that it's impossible for them to attain it you take a look at the kid
204
and you think okay this kid's got this range of skill here's a challenge we can throw at him
205
or her that exceeds their current level of skill
206
but gives them a reasonable probability of success and
207
so like I'm saying it tongue -in -cheek to some degree you know it's like
208
but if you're
209
but I'm doing it as an aid to humility it's like
210
well I don't know how to start improving my life someone might say
211
that and I would say well you're not aiming low enough
212
there's something you could do that you are regarding as trivial
213
that that you could do that you would do
214
that would result in an actual improvement
215
but it's not a big enough improvement for you
216
so you won't lower yourself enough to take the opportunity set
217
out to do something went through it along the way face adversity
218
face the pain right in the eyes kept going past it
219
our lives what we create are made from the decisions we
220
make on the moment to moment basis champions are never woken up
221
and born into success they're created they're matured they're struggled
222
and whether through that effort of hard work and dedication and sacrifice to achieve that championship status.
223
It's these moments, these decisions we make on a daily basis.
224
Do we get up early and go for a run?
225
Do we hit the snooze button?
226
Do we go that extra rep in the gym and our bodies dying?
227
Do we push past that?
228
All these little things are the inches that add up to be the measure of difference between first place and forever forgotten.
229
Second place.
230
Huge margins.
231
But if you look about your day
232
and all these little moments of life all these little opportunities are in your wheel house you create them
233
and later in life when you're crying because you came up short stop being
234
so selfish look back on your day examine it put it under the microscope
235
and have responsibility for your actions those inches you need to be number one then
236
which is now in the past are around us every single
237
day it's not a bad break it's not the ref making a bad call it's
238
that you get up that day
239
and do those little tiny things the little details the little
240
nuggets of life that's what adds up to be the difference
241
if you're gonna sit here and complain why you came up short
242
Without taking responsibility and looking at yourself internally first on all the opportunities you decide to pass on for comfort, then you're a shallow person, guys.
243
The magic you're looking for in life is in the work you're avoiding.
244
There's something that you know you should be doing.
245
Whether it be working on yourself, losing weight, writing something, working on your career.
246
The magic you're looking for in life is in the work you're avoiding.
247
Come on, guys.
248
Think about that.
249
Everybody wants to be a star.
250
Everybody wants success everybody wants to be have money um you know it's you got to work at it
251
if you really want to be successful you have to work at it nothing is achieved without some perspiration nothing
252
anything
253
that is worth anything you have to work out the magic you're looking for in life is in the work
254
that you're avoiding you know you know what to do
255
but it's hard sometimes look do I know I know sometimes
256
I just I want to put on a Netflix Hulu Amazon
257
watch a great movie go into my screening watch something I go oh oh god I gotta do this
258
but I go back
259
and i start to write and after about 10 minutes the flow comes and i feel wow i feel great
260
and and that stays with you when you watch a movie instead of doing your work
261
that's called instant gratification now you know what giving your all is
262
and you will not succeed in business or any endeavor in life
263
until that fight you just went through is applied to the same endeavor.
264
Whatever reasons that we usually give ourselves in the beginning for why we can't achieve something, you can almost always find not only just someone,
265
but someone who's achieved world -class levels of success with worse conditions than you currently have,
266
which then means it's absolutely possible and then the only thing that it takes to get there is work.
267
Be the now of what you want to be later.
268
It starts right now.
269
And if you're not doing the now, don't ever expect it later to be the person you want to look in the mirror.
270
We should not criticize ourselves.
271
We should not say the things that we could have done better.
272
But I believe that that voice isn't an insecurity.
273
I think it's a version that wants you to chase your potential.
274
Come on.
275
Come on.
276
your all's a lot more than you know you got more inside of you to give stop selling yourself
277
so short unwavering confidence is a lie the fears never go away completely they just don't linger as long there's
278
so much opportunity on the other side of being willing to
279
persist for an extended period of time on the correct path without getting positive reinforcement from your environment
280
and the longer you can stick with something without
281
that positive feedback loop in terms the big external thing the easier the opportunities are because so few people can pursue them.
282
I've found greater fulfillment in the journey of pursuing my goals than in the moment of achieving them.
283
It won't get harder like this is the hardest part and so if you can just make it through this
284
everything else is downhill it's not that the things
285
that you're the dragons are going to slay aren't going to get bigger they are
286
but you become so much more equipped to slay them back
287
and you have
288
so many more allies you have people in the stands cheering
289
for you you have the audience you have all of these other things
290
that are behind you
291
but at the beginning it's just you with a stick against
292
a bear no one ever tells stories about the hero who made it all happen immediately
293
and had no hardships no one cares everyone loves the story
294
because we can see ourselves in the character
295
and how much we hope to be like them
296
and it's the being like them not the having what they have
297
that we usually like
298
so tell yourself you're gonna do something you don't think you
299
really can do you're creating this gap between your beliefs in your reality
300
and it just creates more stress in yourself
301
and an inability to perform in my opinion
302
if my life was a movie
303
and someone were to watch it i hope they'd be inspired to take risks not just risks to achieve success
304
but embrace feeling both pride and shame fear and excitement
305
personally i want to experience as much life as possible and
306
that only happens when you embrace the highs and the lows
307
if you don't have a high if you don't have lows it doesn't come
308
if you numb the bad you're numb the good when you learn to embrace them they're way more fleeting than you realize.
309
What have you learned about how to deal with and overcome fear?
310
Go.
311
When all that fear that's in your head, all the what -ifs and the scenarios that you create inside your own mind
312
that are way worse than anything that is actually going to happen, they all disappear when you go.
313
So just take action and start moving forward.
314
That is the moment that can last a million years, is waiting to go.
315
You're upside down financially you relationship went back went south you
316
got whatever those things are your credit card debt is up
317
you you got fired from your job okay you're in a terrible situation what are your options
318
what you have to do is well you kind of have to prioritize
319
and execute right like okay i got all these bad things
320
going on in my life what is my biggest problem right now
321
and you got to say okay I got to start with solving
322
that problem and you got to start to going back to I think was the initial thing
323
that we talked about take take action in a year from now it's gonna happen like that
324
and who is your future self one year from now who
325
is it just like everyone's out of here go party Saturday
326
night they're not want to sacrifice I'm like the lone survivor in here you know tonight we'll with too.
327
Tomorrow I'll be stronger for it.
328
Another day will go by.
329
365 of them happen so fast.
330

331
And in a year from now is that future person hold regret or pride?

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.
