Pratica di Shadowing: Your HARD WORK means NOTHING without THIS - Impara a parlare inglese con i video
Creazione lezione...
1
Have you ever wondered why the things that you want never truly come to you?
2
Even when you have worked so hard day in day out, even when you have invested so much of your physical and mental energy,
3
even when you have put your heart and soul into what you are creating, but nothing seems to work out.
4
And then you ask, why?
5
What else do I need to do?
6
And then an idea or course of action comes to your mind and you start taking action again, but again, it does not go anywhere.
7
And again, you start asking yourself, Why?
8
What else do I need to do?
9
And before long, you literally step into a vicious circle, a downward spiral that is making you feel more and more frustrated and drained.
10
I'm making this video to say that working hard is important, taking action is important.
11
But there's something even more decisive than that.
12
And without this, no matter how hard you work, no matter how smart and talented you are, you will never be able to achieve your goals and come to your desired reality.
13
It's like you are building a house on sand.
14
It will keep collapsing until you find a sturdier foundation.
15
I'm going to tell you exactly what the missing piece is.
16
But first, I need to tell you a story.
17
It's the story of me pursuing a dream of becoming a professional artist.
18
It's a pretty long one, but I'll try to make it short and just include the most important pieces of information.
19
So basically, for four years, I was working really hard on my art
20
and I was trying to build a social media platform like a community for my artworks
21
because you know in order to make art become your career
22
you need to have a certain level of presence on at least one social media platform.
23
So I was really hard working and consistent with the release of my artworks.
24
I was constantly producing new pieces every week and I tried to experiment with different themes and concepts.
25
I worked so hard on each of my paintings
26
that I was suffering from severe back pain back then
27
and i also spent a lot of time interacting
28
and supporting other artists to expand my community
29
and my art is not bad okay it is not the best
30
but it's definitely not bad
31
but for the entire four years i only had i think three thousand followers
32
and i was stuck at
33
that number forever it was like i was tied by some invisible strings
34
that kept me at the same place while i was trying to run
35
and run and run and run and run to a point where i couldn't continue anymore.
36
Anyways I stopped making artworks two years ago
37
and during these two years I have thought a lot about this process
38
and you know the reason why I couldn't move forward even
39
when I was working really hard and I had the potential to actualize my goal.
40
The reason why I never achieved what I wanted was
41
because I was taking action with the mental attitudes and emotions of a loser.
42
Throughout those entire four years I never trusted in myself.
43
I was always in a state of unease and anxiety.
44
Every time I was working on a piece of artwork, I always wondered whether or not it was going to receive the level of recognition
45
and support that I thought it deserved and then getting frustrated and resentful afterwards every single time for the entire four years.
46
I was desperate to get attention.
47
I was also constantly comparing myself with other artists.
48
I was just a total insecure mess and finally I was depressed
49
which was one of the reasons why I had to stop making arts.
50
So basically the biggest mistake that I made during that time is
51
that I was trying to become successful with the mindset of a loser.
52
How is that going to work out?
53
If you want to become successful but you always act and think and feel like a loser, you will only face failure.
54
And that's exactly what I was going through.
55
So the secret missing piece
56
that I talked about in the very beginning of this video has nothing to do with taking action or working hard.
57
It is about the mental attitude and the emotion that you have
58
when you are taking action
59
if you want to be successful you need to take action with the mental attitudes
60
and emotions of a successful person
61
if you want to be healthy you need to take action with the mental attitudes
62
and emotions of a healthy person
63
if you want to be abundant you need to take action with the mental attitudes
64
and emotions of an abundant person so in a nutshell
65
if you want to win in life you need to take action as a winner Your mental attitude
66
and your emotion need to be equivalent to your desired reality for it to happen.
67
A lot of people have misunderstood the game of life.
68
They think that if they take action and work hard, then they will get the desired result.
69
And after that, they will feel some positive emotions such as happiness, joy, and satisfaction.
70
This is the deadliest trap that they can fall into because then they will literally become slaves to the physical reality, working hard, sacrificing their health,
71
and depleting themselves to exhaustion and apathy.
72
What you should do is the complete opposite of that.
73
You place yourself in the field of energy that is an equivalent to your desired reality, which means you feel the elevated emotions that other people see as the end first,
74
and then you take action with those elevated emotions, and then your desired reality will materialize.
75
To put it shortly, if you want to actualize your goals, you need to live in the end.
76
Live as if everything is already done, as if you already have everything that you want.
77
When you feel amazing and you take action, that's when you become the winner.
78
That's when you are invincible.
79
One thing that I want to emphasize is that
80
when you are taking action from a place of lack or fear or insecurity or frustration, other people and the universe can sense it because everything is energy
81
and the energy of frustration and insecurity and desperation especially desperation is
82
so unattractive to all the people and to the universe that's why the things
83
that you want will run away from you it's like you
84
are a beggar trying to befriend a millionaire you need to become a millionaire first
85
and by saying becoming a millionaire i'm talking about this your mental and emotional state

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.
