쉐도잉 연습: Romanticize your life - 영상으로 영어 말하기 배우기

so i had a very busy day today

and the whole day i'm planning mentally okay you have to

finish one two three four five your workout go home have dinner

and then you have to film and

when i tell you i was this close to not filming

and then i open youtube and i see a few comments

and one most recent one on one of my videos just saying I've been going through such a hard time

and your last two videos helped me emotionally and spiritually

and I was like okay we need to get up and film which is alhamdulillah a great feeling it's

if you positively impact one person's life I think we

because of social media we tend to forget

that one soul is such a feat as it is you

know i think we get caught up in the numbers

and especially if you had a video go viral you think oh what's 20

when i can reach 20 000 what's 20 000

when i can reach 2 million what's 2 million

when i can reach 10 million which is such a skewed concept of reality

and and and time and people and energy

so i think what i'm trying to say is

if you can help one soul don't underestimate it

and don't shy away from it because we have forgotten the value

and the weight and the importance and the limitlessness of one soul so

if god gifts you with the opportunity to change even one person's life a child an elderly a sibling a colleague Like,

take that by the horns, like jump, dive in head first to try to help someone.

If one person goes to sleep saying, I'm looking forward to waking up tomorrow

because you had a hand in helping them or altering their mood or allowing them to see a light and have hope.

I don't understand how that's not a goal that we attempt to attain, if that makes sense

so I think um yeah it was a good little humbling wake -up call not

that I need a wake -up call in general I'm quite

what's the word I'm looking for uh I don't know what the word I'm looking for is

unattached yeah to social medium I don't really it's interesting

because I'm here obviously but But I took a break for the longest time.

And usually you're not supposed to because people tend to forget you, which is fine.

And I don't really care if a video goes viral or not.

I've said this before.

I'll post and it's my page and I just don't care.

Whoever's here is here and whoever isn't, isn't but I think the reminder

that I do have an impact is amazing

and I think that's what we should strive for affecting one person positively rather than the many

and I think when you aim for the one the many come

because the intention is pure and it's there but anyway

that was just the beginning of this video

but I do have a few things I want to say today I'm also not entirely sure

because it's been quite a hectic few days um my friend

and i were discussing because she's an entrepreneur and i'm an entrepreneur

and she's working on her own brand and i obviously have my eyewear brand

so before i start i'm just gonna say

because as i've said before my youtube community is my number one priority

and i love the community here i think people are more loyal people are more long -term

and people are very conscious with the content that they consume

so you have to go out of your way to press this video and watch it through it's not like other

social media platforms where they feed you said content right

and it's instantaneous and quick and volatile

so for my eyewear brand I'm very focused on it now

so I will be talking about it sometimes on this uh platform

but i will say uh just for my youtube followers

so i'm not posting this anywhere else tiktok instagram nowhere else

just here uh the code leila 30 i'll put it in the description box

so it's leila l -a -y -l -a 30 one word

and you guys get 30 off for the next three days

so from when this goes live 72 hours it'll be available where you guys get 30 off

and it's just for my YouTube community, because I told you guys a couple of videos ago,

I just, I'm, I'm here on YouTube and I just want to take this seriously and invest in it.

And there's something about just sitting here and talking to you guys.

That's fundamentally.

and viscerally different than any other platform and i just really enjoy it

and inshallah podcast with my dad will be back soon we've just been really busy anyway enough rambling

i was talking to my friend who owns her own no who's launching her own brand

so obviously you have to register the company and own it

and you have to go through the whole process of finding

the right factory finding the right team finding the right people bringing your vision to life samples trial

and error it's a very arduous and time -consuming process it is

and it's also quite costly if you don't have an investor

and if you're self -funding it can be it's quite the gamble uh

and you have to be smart you have to be meticulous

but you also have to have a lot of faith i'm very much the type

that i start something if i get the itch

if i get the passion if i get the idea i don't sit on it

and i don't wait on it

and i'm not the type of oh the brand name

and the logo need to be perfect before we even start i start

and i almost force the rest to follow suit

which is why i'm so adamant on law of attraction and

if you want something you just have to show up as

if it's already happened because like how do i say

that in english it's inevitable everything will follow suit the universe

will follow suit circumstances happenings it will just happen to make

way for what you already set course to make happen it's

a it's a it's a magical thing that's a visa you're here okay my point is

when you it's a phenomenal thing that when you set course on something

and you don't dwell over the little details

and this needs to be perfect and that needs to be perfect

which is more or less excuses just to impede you from starting to thwart your process

when you just start when you just dive in head first

and you go for it

and you put your best best attention into it your most positive intention

when i tell you the universe cannot help

but follow suit it cannot help but make way for what you set out to achieve because all of your energy, all of your passion, all of your thoughts,

all of your consciousness is driving this thing forward.

100

And it's amazing how everything will fall into place to allow for what you claimed you wanted,

101

what you showed you wanted to happen and transpire.

102

It is magical how things will fall into place.

103

So anyway, sorry, I get passionate about this stuff

104

because i just remember how i launched certain projects and certain companies

105

and subhanallah how things just happen and i was never the type

106

that my colors needed to be ready or my branding

107

or my logo i was like this will this is this will happen it'll come as we move forward

108

and without fail it did every time

109

so i'm talking to to my friend who's working on her brand

110

and going through all these things

111

because she's obviously just starting in the search for the right factory and the sampling and all of that.

112

And I'm obviously a brand that's already launched and available.

113

And we were just talking about certain things.

114

And again, I'm very careful with saying certain things because I don't want to come off as always me, which trust and believe I do not ever feel that way.

115

When, how do I say this correctly?

116

When you launch your own thing, it's very interesting how people will disappear.

117

And it's not that they disappear completely from your life it's just

118

that they don't support you it's it's an interesting one

119

and it's funny to me because i've seen this without huh it's the same way

120

that when you're on social media okay i don't know

121

if you guys have come across these people creating videos of

122

saying i don't understand why you don't support your friends

123

and just leave a like a comment a share like share

124

it to yourself share it to them whatever it is

125

if it helps boost like i see you guys under kim

126

kardashian's posts i see you guys under hayley bieber like pop

127

off queen what are you doing you know what i mean

128

which fine if you support a celebrity and

129

because you believe in their ethics and morals and values

130

or maybe you just like their brand i don't know in

131

the year of 2026 with everything that's taken place in palestine

132

and gaza i think we should be very careful with who we support

133

and who we put our money behind i just think

134

that matters more than we let on

135

but my point is you launch your brand people tend to not support

136

when you see them with your own two eyes doing other things

137

and it's interesting how she was explaining to me she's like babe

138

when you have your own brand you have to do things

139

yourself from start to finish do the content yourself do this yourself

140

And it's true because no one's going to love your baby as much as you love your baby.

141

No one's going to execute your vision the way you would execute your vision.

142

And now you might say, yeah, but I'm not a photographer or I'm not a website developer or I'm not, I don't know how to do SEOs or paid media,

143

which fine, mind you, I'm illiterate when it comes to all of these things as inexperienced as they come.

144

But I also believe that God sends the right people at the right time.

145

So with my first company, I have hired and fired some people who have really hurt me and betrayed me.

146

And it took me about two years, if not more, to find Natalie, who works on my team now and is a delight.

147

Mashallah, mashallah, may God bless her and reward her and protect her.

148

Her birthday is actually in a couple of hours.

149

It's tomorrow, 29th of September so and

150

and she's been with me for a year

151

and a half over a year and a half now

152

and it took me a really long time to find her

153

but I also as difficult as it was hiring people being betrayed firing them looking back now I'm

154

so grateful that I went through everything I went through

155

because it allowed for the finding of Natalie

156

and then for the relationship with Natalie to transpire in the healthiest most abundant flourishing way

157

and alhamdulillah we have a great relationship she's like my baby sister

158

and i take care of her

159

and i'm very protective over those who are loyal to me

160

if you are loyal to me i am ride

161

or die for you and i'd move heaven

162

and earth to make sure you are safe you are covered and that you flourish and you live an abundant life

163

so it just the whole conversation the whole reason i've gone

164

on this whole journey with you guys to get here is

165

i think it's okay sometimes to go at things alone not

166

only do i think it's okay i think it's necessary

167

because yes finding the right people and the right partners

168

and the right team romantically platonically professionally in any field in your life you know what i mean it's a blessing.

169

It's such a breath of fresh air, a dream come true to find the right people who are loyal, who are ride or die,

170

who are not nefarious with their intentions or who backbite

171

or any of those things that we unfortunately have been through far too many times with far too many people.

172

Yeah, obviously finding the right people is a blessing

173

and it's a dream and it's the ultimate goal

174

but in order to get to said goal going through certain

175

things alone is very necessary there is a beauty in loneliness

176

that is often overlooked and it is

177

that it allows you a carving in time to be with yourself

178

and with God I've said it before at the end of the day you wake up

179

and you go to sleep with yourself and

180

if you do not allow your own company to be your

181

favorite company to be a company you look forward to to be a company you cherish

182

because you know who you are you know what you bring

183

to the table you know your values you know your sense of humor you know these beautiful things

184

that make up the totality of you and encompass you

185

if you do not reach

186

that level of genuine self -love it's a long way ahead

187

with a lot of people who will show you exactly what

188

you've shown yourself not loving your own company not respecting it

189

not understanding your sense of humor not craving your soul you have to have an appreciation

190

and a craving for it first and foremost yourself

191

and I'm talking about a genuine divine connection everything else follows

192

suit later it's like a waterfall in a river it trickles down

193

and then spreads into the open waters and that's where you find real life and sustainability

194

if that makes sense i don't know why my voice went

195

sorry i i had a i think i have an allergy to macadamias even though i love a macadamia

196

but I had some macadamias a week ago, and I felt very nauseous after.

197

And then I had a macadamia cookie today, and I started choking.

198

Like, I had that tickle in the back of my throat.

199

I'm like, and I need to cough, and then it just wouldn't go away.

200

And it reminded me of an atrocious moment I had in high school.

201

I'm a shway fat girly.

202

Well, the last two years, not a fan.

203

Just going to be honest, not a fan.

204

Don't even like my classmates, if I'm being honest there are very few

205

that i still talk to and the majority i'm very okay never seeing again and never speaking to two because

206

there was a lot of weirdness happening in

207

that class my point is I was in an exam what

208

they call them there I don't even remember what they called them the ones we had weekly

209

which I think is a form of slavery and I got

210

that tickle and I started choking in the middle of this

211

and no one

212

and the worst part is is the teachers look at you like what are you doing

213

and I'm like no I'm ma 'am I'm dying okay so

214

that happened to me today after I ate a macadamia

215

so my throat's been a little a little floof floof a little fluff

216

but I'm fine um

217

and I don't think it's an allergy like hives I just think internally my body has an aversion towards it

218

which is you know fine all fine and dandy

219

but yeah I think going at things alone is so important I think

220

there's a roomie quote i put it on my self -stack

221

i did put it on my self -stack let me see

222

if i can find it dania called dania i'm filming this

223

i'll call you back later oh found it okay this is

224

bismillah i put it on my self -stack it's this one

225

inception you can see me no you can't see my texts

226

though bismillah it says whenever you are alone remind yourself

227

that god has sent everyone else away so

228

that there is only you in him and

229

that completely metamorphosed my relationship with quote unquote loneliness because

230

that means you need to go back home

231

that means you need a moment of respite

232

and you need to rid yourself of these distractions

233

and go back home that means something in your life is off balance is askew

234

and you need to take a step back and go back home

235

and I also wrote on Substack I think I mentioned this before

236

but if you claim oh I'm so alone I'm so lonely I'm

237

so alone without you realizing without even recognizing it you are denying your belief in the existence of God

238

because it is an impossibility for you to be alone God is always with you it's just your recognition of

239

that or your refusal to acknowledge it but whether you choose to see it

240

or not it doesn't change the fact that he is there

241

but your refusal to see it just makes life a lot harder

242

and a lot makes it feel heavier

243

and makes it feel a lot less a lot more lonely and a lot darker and

244

suffocating i think it's that one second

245

because this this cat's making some noise i don't know

246

if you guys could hear it in the background

247

but i have my bad i have a piano in my house i've had it for a couple years

248

because i do play the piano

249

and she's been with me since she was 40 days old right this this little kitty cat is two years

250

and four or five months old now and she's never

251

gone near the pedals of the piano you know the three pedals at the bottom

252

and for some reason today it's just her pride

253

and joy it's all she wants to do is go play

254

with them scratch them bite them at very interesting my point

255

is I think embrace these challenges embrace the going at things

256

alone this is what genuinely romanticizing your life means Dania welcome back to the chat

257

because she and I had this conversation when she stayed at mine

258

and it's a very interesting one we talk about romanticizing your life

259

and we think it's going to grab a matcha on your

260

own taking yourself out on a date grabbing your favorite book

261

and going to sit in the park and reading a few chapters

262

and these are all beautiful things to happen beautiful things

263

that you should take the time to do agreed but i think i think the divine definition of romanticizing your life

264

is recognizing anything that goes wrong anything

265

that happens exactly the way you didn't want it to

266

that is the pristine moment

267

and the exact gift from god moment for you to romanticize your life it's this blessing a hidden blessing

268

so for example let's say your dream is to find your life partner it hasn't happened yet

269

and something goes wrong a bad date or this feeling of loneliness suddenly overtakes you today, right?

270

Because there's a full moon.

271

Rather than succumb to the feeling of depression or sadness or negativity, this is when you romanticize your life.

272

This is when you make it a game and you make it exciting and you say, okay, God's basically giving me an opportunity to recognize what it is that I still need to fix.

273

He's telling me, you're just not ready yet.

274

Something needs to be improved.

275

Something needs to be fine -tuned.

276

And you go and you figure that out.

277

And maybe it's oh, I'm struggling to be alone.

278

No, I have to embrace my own company so that my partner can embrace my own company.

279

It's, oh, I want to be a parent, a mother or a father.

280

If I can't be alone, what am I going to teach my kids?

281

God forbid they meet a bully.

282

God forbid they have a falling out with their friend.

283

God forbid they go through what everyone goes through, which it's gonna happen.

284

It's gonna happen.

285

What are you going to teach them if they witness

286

that you as a parent don't know how to be alone this is what romanticizing your life is it's

287

when things go the most strong

288

when you're like oh okay what can i learn here this is exciting it's time for me myself

289

and i to learn a new trick to pick up a

290

new hobby to improve a bad habit this is romanticizing your life

291

and subhanallah i had quite a tumultuous weekend not in a bad way

292

because never in a bad way this universe is always working in our favor

293

and even when i'm on the phone to my mother

294

or my father and i'm explaining like i'm in shambles over something work related

295

and i'm like

296

and my mom's just like i don't know i don't want

297

to see you this side i'm like no you don't understand i'm

298

so happy it's just i'm crying and when i promise you

299

when i tell you that i promise you I'm bawling

300

but in my mind I'm like this is fantastic

301

because this is the carving out of exactly what I needed to happen you know I know

302

that the best is gonna come after this it's I'm telling

303

you guys it's a really funny thing you will start going through things

304

and laughing at yourself you will laugh while you cry

305

while you are crying you're going to be thinking I'm

306

so giddy and excited

307

because it's about to get real good it's delusion in the best way it's it's delusion

308

that is driven by faith rather than by ego it's the delusion of i know everything's gonna work out

309

because god has my back it's the delusion of gratitude will

310

get me what i want it's the delusion of what bismillah what's the ayah um

311

so with every hardship there is ease it's

312

that delusion it's the delusion of that's not even delusion actually that's the quran that's true

313

but we have been so accustomed to things going wrong

314

that we think it's delusional to be optimistic i just blew my own mind

315

because that kind of just hit me right now that's

316

so true that's sorry guys i'm just having a moment sometimes

317

when i realize things that's so true we call optimism delusion

318

and we look at people who are optimistic

319

and who see the cup as half empty and runneth over overflowing

320

and that i can give everyone and share we see

321

that as delusion when we as muslims in the quran were told

322

if you are grateful i will give you more with every

323

hardship there is ease we have been told to be delusionally optimistic

324

and it's not delusion

325

that is based in faith it's it's it's real it's just faith driven rather than fear and ego driven wow wow

326

i feel like i want to cry um i love having moments like this this is

327

if you guys wanted to take a glimpse into my mind

328

and how i film these this is this is basically it

329

but i usually come to you guys after the realization

330

and having applied it for a long time

331

so i just come to you guys like yeah it's one two three it's so easy

332

but this is how i come to these uh it's an

333

amazing thing what god will make you wake up to it's an amazing thing

334

how much god will push you in the right direction

335

when you just come like knocking

336

and be like hey i need a little bit of help uh i love these moments

337

because i know it sounds so silly

338

because i've probably said these things on my podcast a million times like god has promised you

339

and you should be optimistic and law of attraction

340

but i think it's just the awakening to humanity of of we're

341

so accustomed to the negativity we're so accustomed to what

342

if it goes wrong we're so accustomed to panic and anxiety attacks

343

because everyone loves a label and big pharma has an agenda

344

and social media has just normalized so many things

345

that no shouldn't be normal you should not be having a

346

panic attack at 19 mine started at 19 alhamdulillah they're gone now

347

but these aren't normal things and we've normalized the abnormal and we've taken the normal which is this

348

ridiculous optimism in god this unwavering blind faith that things will work out

349

and we've made that abnormal and that to me is why i'm having this moment now because

350

because it's just it's sad i think it's really sad

351

and i know a lot of people might hear this

352

or i could have these conversations with people and there's always

353

that resist that resistance because it's just years of indoctrination

354

and programming and what you're used to and like i said

355

if you grew up watching your parents behave this way it's

356

it's very hard to snap out of it's truly almost miraculous

357

when you break a generational cycle and a curse for lack of a better word

358

because i think it is a curse i saw um

359

so in my building we have four elevators

360

and one of them is the service elevator

361

so every every elevator has the mirror except

362

that one where it's another door

363

that in the ground floor opens to the service entry

364

and this is when if people are moving or furniture

365

or whatever delivery drivers bless their souls they come in through

366

that elevator but that elevator is also accessible to us and

367

when you request an elevator if that happens to come by you just take it

368

and this was a couple weeks ago quite recent I was coming home

369

so I was in the garage in the parking lot

370

and uh wanting to come up

371

and there was this lady with her two children um Lebanese French

372

and I'd heard them speak French a few times so

373

when the elevator opened she's like oh that one's dark um I don't take it you know so I

374

wanted to see this and I was like you know what

375

because it came out of your mouth I'm gonna take it

376

as a sign not to take this one today you know

377

and spoke to her in French and you could tell

378

when I spoke to her in French she kind of relaxed

379

and I get into the elevator

380

and we speak a little bit her children are quite beautiful the daughter is older

381

and then the son and they're they're young I think I think the son might be eight

382

and the daughter might be ten around those um very malleable age very sponge absorbent age

383

and we spoke a bit they got off on their floor

384

and then i got off on mine and i was just thinking how again shaykh hamza yusuf said the dua

385

of let me bring it back up for you guys that

386

when you see someone go through something or behave in a certain way

387

that you don't like instead of disrespecting it or just going like

388

that could never be me you should say this dua if i ever find it yes bismillah alhamdulillah

389

i'm not exactly sure because i have it written in english um

390

so that's dua inshallah but i just remember taking a moment

391

and looking up to god and saying don't allow me please

392

if i'm ever blessed with children to transfer my fears onto them

393

so haphazardly without even recognizing that i am

394

and i think that's what kind of startled me with this appearance

395

and many other mind you she might be a great mom

396

i'm just talking about this specific thing i'm not one to judge parents

397

because i hope that they're doing the best that they possibly can

398

and her kids were very calm

and very the way they spoke to each other was very loving

400

and sweet so inshallah all good in that house

401

but what i'm saying is she unintentionally allowed them to inherit a fear because

402

that little boy might turn into a 35 year old man

403

who just kind of tells his wife no i can't go into

404

that elevator who might then with his son be like oh i can't go into

405

that elevator and i think it's something to consider

406

so i took that as a learning opportunity to romanticize my life

407

and wake myself up to the fact

408

that okay there are a few internal fears we still have to work on because we don't want to

409

um pass those on we don't want someone to inherit them

410

because we didn't do the work and we didn't take the time to say some things need to be improved

411

so yeah anyway that's my video for the day i romanticize your life that's the point of this

412

but yeah um

413

if you have an idea go at it alone until god sends the right people at the right time

414

but i've always said everything you go through is allowing you to amass

415

and acquire the tools and the knowledge

416

and the wisdom to get you to where you need to get

417

so enjoy the journey that's romanticizing the life

418

and that's what enjoy the journey means it means romanticize it embrace every second of it acknowledge

419

that it serves a purpose and a positive one at that

420

and everything will follow suit it's subhanallah nothing is uh accidental it's very much on purpose

421

and there is a beauty to how god does things it's just about seeing it believing it

422

and embracing it and then your life just becomes beautiful by default you know

423

and beautiful by default is a great thing it's a thing to aspire to because who doesn't love beauty

쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법

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.
