Hi, good morning.
2
Today is Thursday, August 21st, 2025.
3
And I've just read something really beautiful in this book.
4
And I think that you may need to hear this.
5
Behind in life, stop comparing yourself to other people.
6
Because there's no such thing as being behind in life.
7
There's only where you are and the path
8
that you're creating to be behind means to be behind someone walking the same path as you
9
but you have to remember
10
that no one is walking the same path as you comparison
11
is a thief of joy do not compare yourself with anybody
12
else you're in competition with the version of you yesterday okay
13
you're where you meant to be focus on your own journey embrace your imperfections
14
and be better than who you were yesterday that should be your main goal I hope you have a great day.
15
Hi, good morning.
16
This is Tommy and this, wow, just a moment, that's too noisy here.
17
It's day 22 of my daily English speaking challenge.
18
And if you're watching my video today, I challenge you to make a short video speaking in English about anything in your life.
19
Post it to social media with the hashtag SpeakEnglishWithTommy, then tag me there so this is the question
20
that people always ask me hey Tommy why are you always
21
so happy why do you always keep smiling why do you always have
22
so much energy
23
and you know my answer why do I have to be
24
unhappy well I can wake up healthy in the morning I can enjoy this beautiful life I have a beautiful life.
25
Well, maybe I don't have a big house, but at least I have a roof over my head.
26
At least I have food on the table.
27
Well, maybe I don't have a fancy car,
28
but I can still be able to go anywhere that I want.
29
I can walk there and I can ride my motorbike
30
or my bicycle there well yep maybe I can't afford an expensive holiday
31
but isn't it enough like this beautiful nature the sunrise in the background see
32
if you think it's enough then it will be enough but
33
if you keep focusing on what you lack you'll always want
34
more you'll always be in the state of chasing for more
35
so let this video be your friendly reminder to focus on what you do have
36
and to be grateful for it and you'll see
37
that you already have enough so that's it for today's video
38
and i can't wait to see your video challenge I hope

47
they judged my mistakes and my accent for not being perfect.
48

49

65
when it meets the rock it never finds right it just like flows over them

72
Hey, good morning everyone.
73
This is Tommy, and today is Monday.
74
This is my daily speaking challenge.
75
Today, I'll share with you something that I always do,
76
not only on Mondays, but also on the first day of every month and even the first day of every year.
77
I spend around 45 minutes to one hour planning.
78
Well, now maybe you're thinking, Tommy, I don't want to plan, I want to live my life freely,
79
I don't want to follow any rules.
80
Imagine this, you are going on a trip, and you just throw everything into your suitcase.
81
Will you be able to fit much?
82
Will you be able to carry much?
83
So your life works the same if you spend time organizing everything neatly and tidily.
84
You can carry a lot more.
85
That's what planning does for me.
86
I've been doing this for years
87
and actually this is the secret to getting a lot of things done while still having a lot of time for myself.
88
So look here.
89
I have my yearly planner 2025 plan
90
which I wrote on the first day of this year
91
and I even made two versions for my personal life and for my business.
92
Right here is my August plan and this is my weekly plan last week
93
and I've just already done my weekly plan this week
94
and even I made a to -do list for today see
95
we all have 24 hours a day seven days a week
96
but what's separate the winners
97
and the losers is how they use their time is how they plan
98
so start planning today and see how it changes your life
99
and don't forget to join my daily english speaking challenge Make
100
a short video every day speaking in English about anything in your life,
101

106
Life is full of surprises.
107
Some days are happy, some are bad.
108
So when your day is good, enjoy it.
109

110

111

Peace Hi, good morning This is Tommy And this is my daily speaking challenge You know,
120
I got lost In the jungle right now And I really want to share with you This quick feeling You know
121
This is what I love About the mountain, about the nature Because
122
You never know what you can see
123
you know i'm a type of person who always wants to get to the destination real quick but
124
if you keep staring at the top of the mountain you'll
125
never be able to enjoy the beauty of your surroundings when you truly focus on the present moment
126
you see
127
that wow there's a lot of beautiful things around you right
128
just like me you know the bird singing the plants the butterflies here everything here is beautiful
129
because i didn't think much about the destination about where i would get right
130
so this is your friend reminder to just be more present
131
to focus more on the journey to embrace your journey
132
so that's it for today's video
133
and I challenge you to make a short video speaking English
134
about anything in your life post it to social media with
135
the hashtag speak English with Tommy then tag me there
136
and I can't wait to see your challenge accepted i hope you have a great day wow this is beautiful
137
finally i got here this is the destination i didn't expect but then it's beautiful right
138
wow let me just show you real quick right here stay with me stay with me wow
139
wow wow wow good day hi good morning this is tommy
140
and this is day 28 of my daily english speaking challenge
141
and this is something that you need to hear if you want to get rich before 30.
142
you know i'm 30 and i consider myself to be one of the richest people in this world And in today's video,
143
I'll be showing you how to get rich real fast.
144
Are you ready?
145
Step number one to get rich is to smile.
146
Smile at everyone and everything around you.
147
Even the good people or the bad people.
148
The good things or the bad things.
149
Right? there will always be something for you to learn see
150
challenges as opportunities step number two how to get rich is
151
to focus on what you have is to be grateful for what you have
152
because if you focus on what you do have you see
153
that you will always have more and you're so much like you you're
154
so much richer than a lot of people in this world just
155
that alone you woke up today you can watch my video today
156
and that's a gift right so the purpose of life is not to get rich
157
or to become famous but it's to find the riches
158
and the beauty and the blessing in every small thing in your life
159
so if you want to become rich you can do
160

So if you are waking up complaining about your day, complaining about your job, complaining about your life,
166
I have this story for you.
167
At 5 o 'clock in the morning, when I walk out the door, I see this lady, this old bicycle, Do you see?
168
Now there's a little bit.
169
There's a second.
170
Thank you very much.
171
Thank you very much.
172
Thank you very much.
173
I'm going to sleep in the morning.
174
I'm going to sleep in the morning.
175
Every morning, when I walk out of the door, I see this lady.
176
She collects cans and bottles and paper just to make ends meet.
177
While you're complaining about your day,
178
someone else out there in the hospital is praying for only one more.
179
While you're complaining about your school, there are kids dreaming of getting an education.
180
While you're complaining about your house, there are mothers praying for their children to have a shelter.
181
So stop complaining, it doesn't help,
182
it doesn't change anything, instead, start appreciating.
183
Be grateful for what you have, because, you know, you have a lot,
184

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.
