If you read 10 pages every single day, after one whole year, that is 3,650 pages, which is roughly 12 books.

Now think about that for a second.

Every single story you read, every idea you absorb, your brain treats it like a real experience.

Now reading doesn't just give you information, it changes the way your brain works.

The greatest minds that ever walked the earth, their whole life experience, their whole mindset and philosophies are condensed into a single book that you can finish in one week.

Now think about how amazing and life-changing that is.

In this video, I will show you how reading literally rewires your mind

and why you need to either get started or read a ton more.

Trust me, it is so worth it.

Now to train yourself to be able to read for longer periods of time, you need to manage your dopamine levels.

This means no scrolling your phone and checking notifications while watching this video, no reading the recommended videos on the side.

Just put this video on full screen, focus on this video and this video only, and let's get into it.

Oh yeah, one more thing before we get started.

If you're getting into reading or you're already a confirmed reader, I write a newsletter twice a week read by 4,000 plus readers.

It's free.

Subscribe if you're interested.

Link below.

And I'll talk more about that later.

Now part number one, reading is not information.

Reading isn't about learning facts.

Anybody can learn facts.

Reading is actually just about living in other experience.

It is about becoming someone else for just a moment.

You see, over the past five years, I've read over 150 books.

And in a way, every single one of those books shaped the way that I think today.

A part of me is in every book that I've read.

So for example, I read the book Fight Club and that was for detachment.

I read Meditations by Marcus Aurelius, which is stoicism.

For the business aspect, I read all of Alex Ramosi's books.

For Habits, I read Atomic Habits.

For Mastery and Changing the Way I Think, I read Mastery by Robert Greene.

To develop the business mindset, I read Shoe Dog, which is the Memoir of Nike by Phil Knight.

Every single book has a purpose.

Every book changes you and shapes you in a certain way.

Now in the self-improving space, there are thousands of books.

There are so many books that you couldn't even count.

And every single one of these books has a story.

It has a life lesson.

It has an experience that is condensed.

Now a fun fact is that your brain actually activates the same exact regions when it is reading versus experiencing.

So when you're actually living experience, certain areas are activated in your brain.

But when you are reading about experiences, those same areas are activated.

Now by tapping into the skill of reading, you can learn from other people's mistakes, you can copy the success of people you look up to and you can build that for yourself.

So you can just look and study any inspiring, successful person who is out there and you can just be like, I want this success for myself.

And if they can do it, then why can't I?

If you can just look at somebody who has the success that you want and you can read about them, study their stories, study how far they've come, then you will get there.

You see, if you fake bravery for long enough, you will be brave.

And that is actually the fake it till you make it mindset that is also prevalent in reading books.

You see, stories trigger emotion, they trigger empathy, fear and desire.

They don't just work on logic and because they tap into very deep emotions, these stories that you read, the people, the authors that you read, they leave an imprint on your mind.

They shape the person that you are from a very deep identity level.

You see, reading isn't just input, it is experience without consequences.

Now if you watch these videos that help you grow, then you are already putting space between you and the rest of the world.

You are already choosing and taking the initiative to become the top 1%.

The top 1% who have the dream life, who have the success, who are exactly where they wanna be

and who have the discipline and the consistency to live a very, very good life.

Now just by watching these videos, you are already going to reach a level of success that most people never even see.

And that is the power of consuming the right content.

Whether that's books, whether that's videos like these, consuming the type of content that aligns with your goals is gonna get you to your goals.

Now part number two, reading physically rewires your brain.

You see reading literally changes your brain structure.

Now there's a quote that I like and it goes like this.

Not all readers are leaders, but all leaders are readers.

Now reading just simply strengthens focus in a dopamine fragmented world.

And also if you like these videos, if you like the information and experience based content that I make on this channel, then make sure to leave a subscribe to see more of these videos.

You see reading builds neural connections tied to memory and comprehension.

It increases empathy by forcing you into other perspectives.

You see regular readers develop deeper and slower thinking.

And there's another quote, it goes like this.

Scrolling trains reaction and reading trains reflection.

You see a lot of us want to change habits.

We want to change ways of life.

We want to develop the discipline and the consistency that is going to lead to the results.

That is going to lead to being able to take the daily steps to get to where we want to be.

Now the only problem with that, even though that's amazing, is if your identity conflicts with your outcome.

Conflicts with the person you want to be and the life you want to live, then it's going to be hard.

You can never outwork your identity.

So think about what better way to make fundamental change than to change the person behind the habits.

It's the person behind the routines, the person who is doing the things.

And that comes with changing identity.

And reading is just one of the biggest things that changes your identity over time.

It's not gonna change your identity in a couple of weeks or maybe even months, but if you read for one year, if you read 12 books a year, which is 10 pages a day,

then you will see your identity start to shift.

You will start to just think differently and be a different person and, you know, just think from a different perspective. And

that takes me to part number three the future you you

see the past version of myself would be shocked at all the books

that I've read

but I'm even way more thankful to the past version of myself who decided to pick up

that first book reading has changed my life the reason why

I've been able to you know grow my youtube channel to 80,000 plus subscribers

and talk about self improvement and talk about discipline

and mindsets is you know partly due to reading in fact it is enlarged due to reading, the one habit, the one skill, the one identity change that has changed my whole life.

I am so grateful that I picked up my first book when I did, because it really changed my life.

You see, just think about 20 pages a day.

It's not that much, right?

20 pages a day is something you could do every day.

It might take 30 minutes, it might take an hour, but we all have time to spare.

Now, 20 pages a day is 7,300 pages a year, and that is 24 books.

Imagine how much of a different person you would be if you read 24 books in one year.

100

You see, every single book subtly reshapes how you think.

101

It changes the way you see things and the way you decide.

102

Now this is something you won't notice daily but after months of reading you will notice these 1% changes,

103

these 1% improvements in your character start to collect and come together and give you the final result.

104

You see reading is an identity shift.

105

It is not a habit.

106

Now if we talk about the one habit that has changed my life in so many ways it's not meditating.

107

I mean meditating is great, journaling is great, exercising is great and doing all these things they're amazing

108

but And reading for some reason has changed my life the most.

109

Now a final quote to leave you with, reading gives us some place to go when we have to stay where we are.

110

If you're ready to change your life, if you're ready to start reading and start picking up the habit

111

that is going to shift your identity at the deepest level, then check out my newsletter where I give you the tools to make meaningful change in your life.

Daily ConversationWorking Adults

FOR YOU

この動画で身につけるスピーキングスキル

この動画を使って英語学習をすると、流暢な語り口のリズムや感情を込めた発音、説得力のある話し方を身につけられます。特に、「Fake it till you make it」のような慣用句の使い方や、哲学的なアイデアを簡潔に伝える表現が鍛えられます。YouTubeで英語学習をするメリットのひとつは、リアルな会話のテンポを感じながら練習できることですね。

聞き取りに注意すべき音のつながり

動画の中では、連結音や弱読みがたくさん使われています。例えば、「think about that」は「think 'bout that」となり、「t」の音が弱まります。また、「it is so worth it」では「it's so worth it」と縮約され、スムーズに流れます。これらの音のつながりを覚えることで、ネイティブのような発音ができるようになります。shadowing siteを使って繰り返し聞きながら真似すると効果的です。

ネイティブのように話すコツ

ネイティブの話し方のリズムとストレスを真似るには、感情的なニュアンスに注目しましょう。動画のスピーカーは「life-changing」や「amazing」という言葉を強調し、興奮や感動を表現しています。これらの単語を強く発音することで、話に抑揚がつき、説得力が増します。また、「Fake it till you make it」のようなフレーズは、IELTS スピーキング対策にも役立つので、繰り返しshadow speechを練習してください。

英語シャドーイングのポイント

動画を10秒ずつ止めて、同じリズムで真似る
感情を込めて発音することで、自然なアクセントが身につく
難しいフレーズはshadowing siteで文字起こしを見ながら練習

読書が脳に与える影響についての話は、とても面白いですね。この動画を使って英語シャドーイングを続けると、スピーキング力だけでなく、思考力も磨かれるかもしれません。

この動画の文法

話し手がよく使っている文型を、動画の実際の表現とともに紹介します。

文型	動画での表現
現在完了形 have/has + 過去分詞 — 過去の出来事が今も関係している	I've read · they've come · has changed
関係詞節 who / which + 節 — 人や物について情報を加える	pages, which is · Aurelius, which is · Dog, which is
受動態 be + 過去分詞 — 誰がするかより、何が起きるかに焦点を当てる	are condensed · is condensed · are activated

シャドーイングとは？英語上達に効果的な理由

シャドーイング（Shadowing）は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的：ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影（shadow）」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
