Shadowing Practice: Comment devenir une nouvelle version de toi-même - Learn English Speaking with Video

1
I hope you are well.
2
Today we are going to talk about how to become a new version of yourself.
3
How to pass from an state where you don't trust in yourself, where you're filled with security, where you don't go to action, to take things, to expose yourself,
4
to show you how you're going to feel really confident, where you feel at ease with who you are
5
and where you arrive to take the actions that you've always wanted to take even when it's difficult and uncomfortable.
6
Something that changed for me, it's to understand a fundamental truth.
7
This truth is that you don't need to wait to feel like the new version of yourself
8
to incarnate the new version of yourself.
9
And what I hear from that?
10
I think that in the personal development, there is really a lot of this idea, this belief, this opinion which is very shared on the social media and that I don't have at all,
11
to say that it's important to listen to, it is to listen to his feelings,
12
it is to do what we want to do in life and stop to make obligations, stop to do violence, it is not to do violence,
13
it is really just to listen to.
14
And what paradoxical is that for me it is absolutely indispensable to listen to but not any way.
15
I think that today we are at a stage
16
and I I was very very very found there where I was listening to too.
17
All I did was m'écouter.
18
J'écoutais ce que je ressentais quand j'avais une émotion désagréable, quand j'avais peur, quand j'étais angoissée, quand j'étais inquiète, quand je manquais de confiance en moi,
19
quand je me sentais pleine d'insécurité ou quand je me sentais pas bien dans ma peau ou peu importe.
20
J'écoutais cette émotion, j'écoutais ce que mon corps m'envoyait comme signaux.
21
Et qu'est-ce qui se passait du coup ?
22
Bah je passais pas à l'action,
23
je faisais rien de vraiment différent de ce que je faisais avant parce because I was so obnibulated by what I felt,
24
that I didn't understand
25
that my emotions were in the way to dictate what I was in the way to create in my reality.
26
And instead of deciding myself from the actions that I was going to take and which were created the reality, the reality that I wanted to create,
27
I left the emotions temporarily dictating the decisions that I was going to take in the moment present.
28
And so what's going on?
29
Well, I feel like I'm going to feel alone, I'm going to feel alone, I'm going to feel alone, I'm going to feel alone with whom I have a toxic amity.
30
I'm going to feel bad in my mouth, I'm going to talk to a guy with whom I had a date, and with whom it's not going to happen, he's not going to be treated,
31
but it's a tension, so I'm not feeling well, I'm feeling insecure, I'm going to talk to this person, so that she doesn't respect me.
32
I feel bad with myself, I will not go to the gym, I will stay at home,
33
eat chocolate and watch a good movie on Netflix." And,
34
there are times where I think it can be gratifying to recompense things for yourself who are doing well,
35
what happens very often is that it is not that we do things to do well, it is that we do things,
36
we take decisions which will allow us to be able to avoid emotions that are not agressive.
37
And I, it's what I've done, but for years.
38
I was the reine of the fuite.
39
I was able to avoid emotions, I was on the networks, I scrolled.
40
Even today, sometimes, at a certain level, I continue to scroll on the networks,
41
but what changed for me is to understand that it's just a mechanism of fuite.
42
It's not a strategy that is viable on the long term.
43
And if you want to really enclench the level of higher, because it's something that I repeat very often, but life is a game.
44
It's a game.
45
If you take the life as a game, you will understand that today you're not in a posture where you feel really at ease with who you are.
46
You feel really confident in what you are, in what you live, in what you've created, in your life professional, in your love.
47
You're not even confident in your body.
48
You're not feeling well in your health, etc. The question is, ok, I'm not satisfied with the version of where I am today.
49
And a big parenthesis that I want to do on that,
50
it's that there is absolutely nothing to be satisfied with where you are today.
51
I think that in the personal development, there is a tendency that is, but, it's to say, you don't have the right to be bad,
52
you don't have the right to be satisfied of where you are today.
53
You have to accept it.
54
You're not good in your mouth?
55
Accept it.
56
You're not happy with your finances?
57
Accept your situation.
58
You're not happy with your relations?
59
Accept.
60
You have already chance to have relationships.
61
And so, we're really in a schéma où finalement les gens apprennent à se complaire dans de la médiocrité,
62
dans des situations qui les rendent malheureux.
63
Pourquoi ?
64
Parce qu'il y a une obligation, une pression à se dire il faut que j'accepte,
65
il faut que je sois reconnaissant pour ce que j'ai et si je suis insatisfait c'est que je manque de gratitude, c'est que je suis ingrat, c'est que franchement ça se fait pas parce qu'il y a
66
des gens qui ont même pas la chance d'avoir la moitié de ce que j'ai.
67
Et la The truth is that you can't change your situation if you force yourself to satisfy something that doesn't satisfy you.
68
There's nothing to be satisfied where you are today and want to go higher level.
69
When you do this constat and you decide to go higher level of your own game, because again once again, life is like a video game, what is it to do?
70
What happens to you at this moment?
71
What will happen is that you will understand
72
that the character of your next level of your video game
73
is not the same as the character of your actual level of your own game.
74
You can't wait to live something different, to go to a higher level in being the same character.
75
You will have to incarnate a new version of you.
76
You will have to pose and say ok, what is the new reality that I want to live?
77
What is the next level that I want to achieve?
78
Maybe it's a different financial level, maybe you want to feel better in your skin, maybe you want to have a relationship with your friends who are more saines,
79
more authentic, more vulnerable, whatever.
80
Pose-toi with you-même and ask what is my next level?
81
And how is the version of my next level would be in this level?
82
what they would say, what actions they would take, what decisions they would take, how they would take more, how they would behave with others,
83
and decide, radically, from today's today, to incarnate this version.
84
And when I say that, there is an important point that I want to share, it's that it doesn't matter to the want, it doesn't matter just to the want,
85
because if the motivation was enough to change, everyone would change.
86
Everyone would go to the hall every day, everyone would eat well, everyone would have a sleep impeccable, everyone would have a healthy relationship,
87
everyone would have a stable finance.
88
The motivation is not enough.
89
The motivation is the rice on the cake.
90
It is the bonus that makes it more agréable to pass to action.
91
But the problem is that most people are based on the motivation and you listen to a lot of it.
92
You feel fatigued, you feel motivated, you feel triste, you feel not good in your mouth, you feel null, you feel bad with you-même.
93
It's at this moment that you need to force yourself to act like the version of you who doesn't feel all that.
94
And paradoxalement, it's from this moment that you will become this version of you-même.
95
It's not to wait for you to feel motivated to act like someone motivated.
96
You will need to act like someone motivated even when you feel motivated, even when you feel a flem,
97
even when it's hard, even when it's an effort immense for you to pass.
98
And if I say this, it's because these last few times I was wondering with myself, I was thinking that in fact,
99
these last years I've taken conscience of something so important and that I really want that you integrate but at the point, at the point, at the point in your life,
100
it's that you understand that in fact,
101
it's total bullshit to believe that we should feel good to act differently.
102
It's the most nonsense that I've ever heard in fact and that you can change life,
103
that you can transform reality and to live something different because you wait to feel good, you wait to feel good, you wait to feel good, to go to the hall,
104
to start a business, to make videos on social media, to talk to this person about what you feel, all of that will never be nice.
105
It will become more and more natural, if you pass the action, if you repeat the repetition.
106
But it's so much a mess, It's so much a myth to believe that it is so nice,
107
fluid, natural to do it.
108
And if it's in these states, it's because when I talk about it, I also talk about myself.
109
I talk about a version of Mariam, and of course, I talk about Mariam today, who has other levels to go to, where I wait for certain things to be nice to do.
110
But in fact, I'm not listening to it.
111
And if you listen to me, you're listening to today, to wait to be motivated to change your life.
112
Everything that I tell you, everything that I tell you, it applies to all the areas of your life.
113
When I put in a toxic relationships, when I put in a family that date of 12-13 years, people with whom I grew up, who were all the time in my life,
114
with whom I lived with these people, so I was going to be able to get them, I was going to go to them.
115
I was really, but all the time, I was always with these people.
116
When I decided to put in these friends, it was not nice, it was not easy, it was not easy, but it was necessary.
117
And the irony in all that, it's that people think that when something is beneficial for you, it's nice.
118
But it's a lie.
119
It's a lie.
120
It's a lie.
121
It's a lie to believe that.
122
What is beneficial for you, it will often be very very uncomfortable.
123
It's not a good thing to raise your weight, it's not a good thing to put in a relationship where you were so attached, a relationship in which you felt so secure,
124
in a familiarity that you needed to.
125
It's not a good thing to expose your social media, to show your face and show your face, to show your face and show your opinion, and share your opinion.
126
It's not a good thing to go out and go out
127
because you decided that every day you would make your 10 000 steps per day.
128
If I had to make a generalize, it's that most of the time, what is good for you is quite a good thing.
129
So, don't wait, don't wait for it.
130
It's not that it's fun.
131
And if I say that, I promise that I've had so much time to understand it.
132
And I've been coaching, I've been coaching, I've been working on myself.
133
I've been studying the different moments of my life where I had the results
134
that I wanted and those where I stagnated, even regressed.
135
And really, when I tell you that everything changed for me, when I really took the decision radical to pass it to action,
136
even when I didn't feel motivated, it's really the reality.
137
And if you look at, I'm sure that really, between us, if we look around you, you look around your friends,
138
your friends, your family, you'll see that if you think aux personnes qui t'inspirent, peu importe le domaine, peut-être que c'est quelqu'un qui t'inspire dans le sport,
139
quelqu'un qui t'inspire dans la prise de parole en public, dans son corps, peut-être que tu trouves que quelqu'un a un corps de dingue et c'est ton rêve d'avoir son corps,
140
ou bien quelqu'un qui a une relation amoureuse, mais qui a l'air tellement saine et tu te dis mais waouh,
141
c'est incroyable, tu verras que toutes ces personnes-là ont fait des choses très désagréables, très inconfortables, que ces personnes,
142
elles sont passées à l'action in repeating every day actions, decisions which were uncomfortable for them, which were out of their comfort zone.
143
And it's precisely what makes them have results and reality that you want to live today.
144
And if there are people that you want and for whom you feel a certain jealousy, a certain
145
frustration, instead of telling you that you are a bad person
146
because you would want to to live something different because sometimes you look at someone and you say wow, I would like to be like this person.
147
Look at it as an exceptional indicator, an exceptional indicator of what you want to live.
148
And encourage you to follow this indicator, to say okay, when I look at this person and her relationship of couple, I want to live the same.
149
Now, ask what do you think she lives this relationship of couple?
150
Maybe they have a discussion désagréable, uncomfortable, daily, that you don't see.
151
What do you think that this person has a hyper muscle, she has so much energy, she is at the top, and you say, how can I do that?
152
Maybe every day, she takes decisions and actions that are inconfortable for her but who allow her to create the reality
153
she has today so it's really a very important reminder that I wanted to share
154
I really hope to know if it has resonated for you if it has helped you
155
the but really the but of this podcast it's that you have a key
156
for really changing your life and when you listen to me it doesn't matter not
157
that you listen to me and just that it goes into an ear and
158
that it goes out of the other I want to you
159
to move on I want to really make things change and that you say that you say but Mariam, it's all I understood I pass to action
160
I want to pass to action we are there for passing
161
to action we are there for advancing we are there for creating the life that we deserve to live why?
162
Because, friends, we will not be eternally we will not be eternally
163
we don't know what tomorrow is done
164
we don't know what tomorrow is done we don't know what
165
we're going to live in our life we don't know when it's going to stop we're coming on earth
166
we're coming on earth we don't know how we don't know when it's going to stop all this stuff
167
so instead of taking our life to light
168
instead of the suffering every day of waking up and letting our automatic pilot
169
we are going to lead a little where he wants, we are going to take the wheel, it's now that it's happening.
170
It's not in one hour, it's not in two hours, it's not in ten years, it's now.
171
Because the time passes.
172
And your life is precious, and you have importance, and you are precious to you-même.
173
And it's important to remember one thing, whatever you want to change today in your life, remind yourself of one thing.
174
if you arrive not just to change your thoughts to change the way you feel with you
175
to every day to take the decision
176
to change the way you address to talk to you to visualize you to change the world nothing but that,
177
it will change the world nothing but the fact to take the decision to go from the state where you te detestate,
178
where you to be able to build a relationship with you-même, a relationship with you-même, an alliance, an amity, an amour with you-même,
179
if you do that daily life, you do that and nothing else,
180
you change the world because your simple presence will illuminate people.
181
Your simple presence will bring light to other people who will bring to their to bring light to another person
182
and so on in a virtue of a beautiful circle.
183
So it doesn't really need to estimate the impact and importance of the work that we do on ourselves.
184
It doesn't really need to estimate the importance of each action and every decision
185
uncomfortable and agréable that we take on daily basis for ourselves.
186
Because when you help you, when you take care of yourself, you take care of humanity.
187
today I was really in all my state
188
I hope you liked this podcast
189
in all of a sudden I loved the show and I promise
190
that it's finished the two weeks of the week I've taken
191
a break of two weeks I'm going to go back
192
and I'm going to I'm going to go to you so prepare you
193
my little partner of podcast you make a little hello
194
hello my friends I really liked you talking about that because it's a subject that is very important for me.
195
And if the podcast has resonated with you, as usual, don't always be able to get the messages that you send me on Instagram or your comments on YouTube.
196
I read everything everything.
197
And you know that it gives me strength and energy incredible.
198
So, thank you for your return.
199
And as usual, I love you very, very much.
200
And I love you, I love you, I love you.

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
