1
Stop choking the hose.
2
This is why you're not able to speak like you think
3
and understanding this concept is going to change the way that you communicate for the rest of your life.
4
Let me give you the 10 second version of this video for all of you attention junkies.
5
Here it is in one sentence.
6
When you reopen the childlike channel of flow, breath, body and mind, your ideas come out alive and brilliant.
7
You become like a mad scientist, fully unchained.
8
Now, I want to develop this idea of the hose and the mad scientist over the course of this video, of becoming more like a mad scientist when you speak.
9
You ever see this mad scientist types who just go crazy talking about things, and there's almost this passion and excitement for what they say.
10
The hair's all wild, they haven't shaved in three months, and they've been rotting in the closet for two months, and hopefully have produced some cure for cancer in the process.
11
there's something happening there that most people never experience.
12
There's a beauty in someone who is so unbelievably unconcerned about what others think
13
that their message matters more than how they appear.
14
And I don't mean physical appearance.
15
I also mean verbal appearance, the package of how they say things and how they show up.
16
And there's a connection made here between the mind and the mouth that cancels out awareness.
17
It cancels out care for appearance.
18
And that's a very pure state of communication.
19
And that's something that most people just never experience.
20
Or there are a select few topics in life that they talk about in which they encounter this.
21
But if you follow what is in this video and what we're about to learn, you're going to be able to access this state more.
22
And this is a secret, by the way, to be able to say brilliant things
23
or speak articulately or have profound insights for you create lightning in a bottle.
24
And this is a secret
25
that many of the top people in the world know to be able to access parts of their mind
26
that remain unavailable to most people.
27
And it starts by relearning how to think like a child.
28
I'm dead serious on this.
29
I love explaining this to people.
30
When you were a child, you're relatively stupid in the way that you communicated and thought.
31
not stupid as being an idiot, stupid in the sense that you didn't know and you didn't care that you didn't know about certain things.
32
When you were excited, you were sharing something like it was the only thing in the world that mattered.
33
And there's a healthy amount of innocence and purity in this way of thinking
34
that was something that we began to limit within ourselves as we grew older.
35
As we grew older, we became more aware.
36
And that circle that used to be about our idea
37
and what we wanted to share expanded to included other things other people our awareness bubble became wider
38
and we began to take in and process much more in our environment
39
and this relationship is something
40
that changed over time we began to make decisions based on
41
the external other people what our senses tell us what our
42
eyes see what our nose smells our ears here versus the
43
internal what we feel we want to share what the content is inside of our mind
44
so a common example is let's say a child decides to kick a ball
45
and then he becomes aware of someone who's watching him do
46
that with a frown their arms are crossed now
47
that child stops they stop kicking the ball and they don't
48
or they don't put in as much effort
49
because now their awareness expanded to include what the other person
50
is thinking about them judgment has now entered the chat
51
and this happens all the time in what we share especially
52
in high pressure scenarios where there's a very extreme external variable
53
which could be maybe someone who intimidates us it could be the stuffiness in the room
54
or something in our environment and it limits the effort
55
that we put into our ideas
56
because we're now taking into an account these external factors inside of the bubble instead of the childlike internal one
57
and this is one of the main kinks in our communications hose
58
and this is one of the three kinks
59
that we're going to iron out in this video we're going
60
to return back to this pure flow of information this is
61
the end state the effortless stream of what's in our mind getting
62
that into words and staying in that flow this is how you achieve brilliant insights
63
because here's the truth
64
that i've discovered with working with hundreds of people over the
65
last year brilliance is your default they're already brilliant like you
66
can already say clever things you have enough you have good
67
ideas in your mind you simply don't know how to access the flow between mind
68
and mouth there are too many bends in the hose
69
that we have to unkink and fix
70
and they're probably environments in your life where you might not
71
have a problem doing this like we talked about earlier there are things
72
that are of interest to you topics that you can discuss
73
that mean something and typically for most people these are their hobbies
74
or their faith or their belief system or their principles that they build on and live off of.
75
And this brings us back more to our natural state when we talk about these things.
76
And so when we talk about the bends and the hose
77
and straightening them out and getting more to that natural creative state that you had many decades ago.
78
If you're an entrepreneur, business owner or high performer
79
and you like the concept in this video and you want it to be something that you do effortlessly under pressure, click the link below to apply for Elite Speak.
80
Elite Speak is my signature program where you work with me directly to identify
81
and overcome the three communication bottlenecks that are limiting your influence, authority, and room control.
82
I'll see you on the call.
83
So the first problem that's happening to you is that emotion expression cannot exist in a hyper-analytical state.
84
So a common exercise that I give people is to try to become 50% happy.
85
Become 50% happy.
86
What happens? you can't become 50 happy
87
when you begin to analyze emotion you take yourself out of the emotion out of the feeling
88
and you enter into what we call head speak it's very structured it's very analytical conscientious thinking
89
and this is why when we train speakers the number one thing
90
that we focus on is getting out of your own head because overthinking is the deadliest of speech cancers
91
brilliant insights they come from when a person has a playful relationship with ideas
92
and playfulness is an emotional state
93
that you have to let it almost overtake you in a way
94
and this is what you had as a child
95
and we have to return to this state
96
and the first major characteristic of this child
97
or this playfulness is a relaxed nervous system what has happened over time is
98
that your body your nerves have developed to present
99
and perform in a certain way and this has caused you to not make relaxation
100
and calmness the norm for you it's almost like
101
your nervous system has become calcified your playfulness has become calcified
102
and when we talk about relaxing the nervous system we're talking about allowing yourself to relax
103
and train that as your default
104
and this takes time it's the analogy i often give is
105
like going in for a massage you might feel better temporarily
106
but you have to keep stretching
107
and engage in the the physical therapy in order to maintain that state of relaxation and flexibility.
108
And then 10 weeks later, you can touch your toes effortlessly.
109
So how do we do this?
110
What are we talking about here practically?
111
Well, you can't retrain your nervous system in a day.
112
What you do have control over is your breath and your body.
113
And so one piece of advice
114
that I would offer up is to become more aware of your breath and how it influences your speech.
115
So when we watch back the interviews and meetings that our clients send us, the first thing I listen to is their breathing pattern.
116
Specifically, where is their breath coming from?
117
How loudly are they comfortable breathing?
118
What is the rhythm of their breath?
119
Is the breath coming from their stomach?
120
Is it coming from like their lower ribs?
121
Or is it coming from their chest or their throat?
122
Where are they breathing?
123
Are they breathing at the beginning of their sentence or mid-sentence?
124
A lot of these things aren't conscious things we're aware of, but they reveal the full display of our nervous system.
125
And when we understand this, we realize that we can actually influence nervous system in the moment with our breath
126
and we can influence the way that we feel
127
and how calm we are
128
and how grounded we are by bringing attention to where we breathe how loudly we're breathing
129
or where we're breathing in the sentence
130
or how many words we're saying per breath and
131
so one of the exercises
132
that i want to give you i'm going to link the very best tutorial
133
that i found on how to do this below this video is learning to breathe with your stomach
134
or from your stomach
135
learning to breathe from your your diaphragm filling your your belly with air
136
and talking from that because that gives you more of a grounded quality and i'm not talking about
137
increasing the influence in your speech or making it more impactful
138
or authoritative like certainly that is a secondary outcome
139
but this is more so that you feel better
140
when you speak this is not about the external impact this is about how you feel internally
141
and it's the most satisfying feeling in the world
142
when you learn how to breathe properly this is what elite communicators know how to do
143
and it just feels so right once you get
144
that right the second thing
145
that i'm going to encourage you to do is to increase the overall words per breath
146
that you are comfortable with so what this looks like is reading through a paragraph
147
and there's a document that has a series of parables
148
that you can read through for our clients i'll link it below this video read through
149
that hit record
150
and see how long it takes you to get through with
151
one breath most of you're probably not going to be able
152
to go through four to five sentences without running out of air what you're going to find is
153
that you're now aware of how much breath
154
that you put on each word see what a lot of
155
people do is they'll fill their lungs with oxygen they'll fill their stomach with air
156
and they'll then lose 50 of that air and the first few words because they don't have good breath control.
157
And so this is one of the reasons why run on sentences tend to happen or a person might
158
get to the point where they're at the end of their sentence
159
and they're just exhausted and exasperated because they've depleted a lot of the oxygen
160
because they don't have good breath control because their words per breath are not as high as they could be.
161
So this is something to train.
162
This is something to measure and become aware of and just practice increasing that.
163
If your words per breath are 50, maybe get it to 55.
164
And there's a routine for this that I'll link below this video.
165
So what this is helping us do is really develop a calm nervous system by learning how to breathe properly, by focusing on our words per breath.
166
Or another way of thinking about this is practicing a soft, unashamed inhale.
167
So you have to do something to either affect the exhale, which is the words per breath.
168
How many words are you focusing on per breath?
169
And this is something you do in a dedicated training practice, by the way.
170
You set aside time, five minutes a day, and you just drill this.
171
This is what we call a verbal workout.
172
This is what we give our clients.
173
This is not something that you need to be doing or should be focusing on when you're speaking.
174
Do not be doing that.
175
You don't want to overanalyze the playground while you're on the playground.
176
But focusing on either the exhale with the breath, the words per breath, or the soft,
177
unashamed inhale, which is just developing the ability to fill your lungs with oxygen and be comfortable with that.
178
It's not supposed to be a statement.
179
It's just something that you are doing for your own internal comfort.
180
And this last way is the slow breath before a sentence.
181
So this is focused on exhale, which is before you begin to speak, exhale slightly, let your breath out,
182
and then begin to trace that exhale with your words.
183
And what this allows you to do is create momentum and allows your first few words to be very smooth.
184
And if you focus on these three exercises and just maybe spend one minute on each of these, what you'll notice is that your nervous system will be significantly calmer.
185
you'll like the way that you sound
186
and you'll have a very calm grounded playful quality to the way
187
that you start speaking
188
if you need more detail on these just ask me in the comment section
189
and I'm happy to develop these further
190
so what we're going to focus on next is how to get your body more comfortable
191
and what I mean by that is be comfortable in the way
192
that you express yourself physically so if we think back to
193
that analogy of the child as a child we're relatively unafraid to like put our hands in the air or look silly.
194
You never really thought about that as a child.
195
When you put your hands in the air, how silly that is.
196
There is a very silly part of us that many of us are afraid to show.
197
And I'm not suggesting you put your hands in the air as you talk to your board of directors
198
or deliver the Gettysburg Address.
199
But what I want you to do next time that you speak is focus on incorporating what we call a personality break.
200
So what a personality break is, it's little human leak into your communication.
201
It's a little part of you that reveals your quirks early on.
202
So you stop spending mental energy trying to hide part of who you are.
203
So I'll give you an example.
204
I trained a sales coach a little
205
while ago to reduce overthinking in his videos by starting his
206
videos by the simple action of drinking a glass of water on camera.
207
Then he would do this right after he hit record.
208
Then he would drink the water.
209
And that action was unprofessional, but it's something he would do all the time and cut out.
210
And that gave him the ability to now embrace his unprofessional self that didn't create a huge expectation to perform.
211
And he was on full display exactly how he wanted to.
212
Another example is the famous comedian and storyteller Rory Sutherland.
213
If you watch his videos and his interviews, he always crosses his arms on his stomach, not for any special analytical strategic reason,
214
but because that's just what is most comfortable to him.
215
It's not professional, but that's his personality on full display.
216
A common example that I often give, too, is someone who might have a bracelet or prayer beads.
217
This is the illustration here.
218
As you're speaking, you're doing something that's a little bit unconventional.
219
You might be thumbing through beads or fiddling around with something that you have, a tassel, a trinket.
220
It might be the way that you hold a pen.
221
this is the idea of creating like a power object something
222
that you know you you're not fidgeting with but it's natural to you
223
that allows you to be very forward with a fundamental part of who you are
224
and it's part of the way that you communicate
225
and it allows you to bring more of you effortlessly into the way
226
that you present it's bringing the physical realm into your presentations more so So what this is really helping with fundamentally is,
227
this is kind of a call back to what we talked about earlier, the internal and the external.
228
You're bringing the circle more back onto yourself, not in a selfish or egocentric way, but you're choosing to focus more on the impact
229
that happens inside of the circle in your space and not so much on what's happening in the audience or the external.
230
Because what happens, and the truth is with most people, is we're so easily influenced by what happens in the external.
231
We might see a disapproving facial reaction, or someone says something negative, and now the mind kicks in.
232
And so what this is really helping with fundamentally is this is kind of a callback to the internal
233
and the external bubbles that we talked about earlier, where you're bringing more of the focus back onto yourself, not in a selfish or egocentric way, But you're choosing to focus more on the impact
234
that happens inside of this circle and not as much on what's happening in the external circle.
235
Because what happens is people are very easily influenced by what happens in this external circle.
236
They might see a disapproving facial reaction or someone says something negative
237
or swears at them and the mind kicks in and now they're overthinking everything that they're saying.
238
And what you have to do is overpower that.
239
And you can do that with that personality break, that little human leak, that part of you that's making itself front and center in what you do.
240
For example, this coffee cup that I decided to include in this video because, well, I'm always drinking coffee in the morning and it's a very unprofessional thing to do in a video.
241
I'm not doing this strategically.
242
I'm just doing this because it makes me feel comfortable and it makes this environment feel more natural to me.
243
So that's one way that you can do this.
244
The other way to do this is to just get very comfortable with punching up the next five words.
245
So what this looks like is over-egging your tone a little bit.
246
And when you feel those little lethal thoughts, those external influencing marks entering into your mind, you feel yourself stepping into the external,
247
and maybe you're not comfortable yet with the personality break, one way to bring it back to yourself and your messaging is to just punch up the next five words.
248
Just raise your volume by 10 to 20%.
249
You don't have to shout, but what you're doing is you're doubling the distance of what you're speaking to.
250
It's a very simple way of thinking about it.
251
So if you normally speak to someone five feet away, think about speaking to someone 10 feet away.
252
And that's just causing you to be a little bit more aware of yourself, your expression, and what you're putting out there into the world.
253
That's focusing on the internal.
254
There's a spore that's happening for most communicators, especially the overthinkers, where they're stepping in and out between the internal and the external all the time during their speaking.
255
They're evaluating what they say and how it's reflected in their environment, and then what they're trying to say.
256
And this is happening multiple times within the span of a single sentence.
257
And it's extremely exhausting.
258
And this really surfaces the next challenge that I want to talk about, which is winning this battle of the mind.
259
And this is a concept that we teach called developing good cognitive security
260
so what good cognitive security is is it's the ability to defend your mental territory
261
and defend your thoughts like there's a version of that child
262
that we talked about earlier on the playground where before he even stepped onto the playground thinks about the spiders
263
that are in there or the ant piles
264
or the other bullies on the playground
265
and never begin to even want to have fun and
266
so what we have to be very protective of is the peace
267
and the calmness that we bring to our conversational territory
268
because there's a version of us that overthinks every potential threat and danger and becomes incredibly guarded
269
and you can really get a sense for someone who is
270
that way when they speak there tends to be a lot of buffering
271
or hesitation or the inability to just go all in
272
and talk about what is of most interest to them
273
so the biggest exercise that i can give you the highest leverage one
274
that i've seen most helpful is what we talked about earlier
275
which is getting comfortable punching up the next five words
276
and whenever you have one of those thoughts which can be something as simple as
277
how is my idea coming across or i'm stupid for thinking about this or any of those self-sabotaging
278
incredibly destructive thinking patterns whenever you find yourself engaging in those
279
just force up the next five words
280
and it's almost a way of turning up the volume on
281
the radio to drown out the noises of the crowd it's
282
a very practical way of helping yourself not give attention to what is going on in the external
283
or what's going on upstairs in the mind that's preventing you from stepping on the playground in the first place
284
and what this is going to help you develop is just good cognitive security
285
and being very protective of the mental real estate that you have
286
and your involvement in your thought in the moment your idea
287
and not allowing that to be muddied by anything
288
that might distract you from developing and pursuing the mission
289
that you're on with your words and
290
so that's really the third kink in this hose
291
that we've straightened out and
292
when you find this the hose fully straightened out you're not bounded by your breath your body
293
or your mind you have control over those
294
and you have the ability to set yourself up for success
295
and what you find is it's an incredible unlock for your speech
296
because it becomes boundless and you end up playing brilliantly with your ideas
297
and that's what i want to encourage each of you to
298
do is put this into practice play with your words and speak well hope this helps

이 클립이 훌륭한 말하기 연습 자료인 이유
이 비디오는 영어 말하기 실력 향상에 딱 맞는 자료입니다. "Stop choking the hose"처럼 생동적인 표현부터 "mad scientist" 같은 상상력 넘치는 비유까지, 자연스러운 구어체와 감정이 담긴 발화가 가득해요. 특히 "어린 아이처럼 생각하기"라는 주제가 구체적인 예시와 함께 설명되기 때문에, 듣는 이가 쉽게 공감하고 따라할 수 있습니다. 유튜브 영어 공부를 할 때 이런 내용은 말하기 뿐만 아니라 사고 방식까지 연습할 수 있어 더욱 가치있어요.
자연스러운 표현 해부하기
- "You become like a mad scientist, fully unchained." : "fully unchained"는 "완전히 풀려난"이라는 뜻으로, 비유적 표현이지만 구체적이어서 쉽게 시각화됩니다. 영어는 비유를 자주 사용하는데, 이런 표현을 배우면 말이 더 생동해집니다.
- "There's a beauty in someone who is so unbelievably unconcerned about what others think." : "so unbelievably unconcerned"는 "정말 믿을 수 없을 정도로 신경 쓰지 않는"으로, 부정적 표현이지만 긍정적인 의미로 사용됩니다. 영어에서는 부정어를重ね서 강조하는 경우가 많아요. 이렇게 문장 구조를 분석하면 자연스러운 발화를 배울 수 있습니다.
- "Judgment has now entered the chat." : "entered the chat"는 인터넷 용어로 "참여하다"는 뜻입니다. 현대적인 표현을 사용하면 말이 더 친숙해지고, 실생활에서 자주 쓰이는 표현을 익힐 수 있습니다.
연습 방법: 쉐도잉 루틴
이 비디오를 활용한 영어 쉐도잉 연습법을 알려드릴게요. 먼저 비디오를 10초씩 재생하면서 소리를 따라합니다. 이때 shadow speech처럼 발음, 억양, 속도를 정확히 따라하는 것이 중요해요. 다음으로 녹음기를 켜고 자신이 말한 것을 녹음한 후, 원본과 비교해보세요. 어디가 다른지 찾고, 다시 연습합니다. 이 과정을 반복하면 자연스러운 말하기 실력이 향상됩니다. shadowing site를 이용하면 더 효과적으로 연습할 수 있는데, 다양한 영상 자료를 쉐도잉할 수 있어요. 매일 10분씩만 하더라도 큰 변화를 느낄 수 있을 거예요.

쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
