1
There's only one thing that actually got me rich to where I was able to attract money
2
and not have to be the person that's constantly chasing it.
3
And it's basically realizing that not only did I have to change my identity, but to form a new identity in order to get rich.
4
Because if you're someone who has never made money yet, you probably procrastinate a lot
5
because your mind believes yourself to be someone who is not even deserving enough of having money in the first place.
6
Because at the end of the day, you have to realize that your income reflects who you believe yourself to be.
7
a month.
8
Do you think it's physically possible for 10k months to come to them?
9
Because at the end of the day, money is an energy thing.
10
Money is not like this physical thing besides like the paper that it is.
11
It's energy.
12
When you align, with the vibration, the energy of money, money comes to you.
13
So how do we actually do that?
14
People think that they're gonna get rich and they're gonna get results in life from just getting it.
15
But you become someone where the money just comes to you.
16
And what I mean by that is that you become someone that forces money to come.
17
But do you know what that means?
18
That means the money doesn't make itself.
19
You are the person who is making the money.
20
So when you focus on money, You're never gonna make money, because money doesn't just make money.
21
The identity of who you are is what brings the money to you.
22
So now you know, it's like, why would I ever chase money in my life? when I can become someone that money chases.
23
And when money chases you, your life is pure bliss, it's pure joy.
24
So how do you actually change your identity in order to grow it?
25
Well, right now you have to ask yourself, Who are you now?
26
And by asking yourself who are you now, ask yourself what you feel that you are deserving of having.
27
I'm sure you've never even thought this deep before where you think that you deserve a certain number at all.
28
but it is physically impossible for someone to have the identity of a 10k a month person to make a million dollars.
29
If someone has the identity of a 100k a month person, then it would be impossible for them to only make 10k a month.
30
So ask yourself right now, what do I believe that I deserve?
31
Well first you have to ask yourself what do you even want out of life?
32
Because if you want to get rich and you want all this money, What you have to realize is you have to become someone
33
different in order to even make the money in the first place.
34
Because it is physically impossible for you to ever stop procrastinating to where you push things off
35
If your mind believes yourself to be someone, that doesn't even have 10K a month right now.
36
So the number one step in order to change your identity is to stop identifying with your past.
37
Because just because you've had a certain past where maybe you've had failures, that doesn't change the present.
38
That doesn't make who you are now.
39
And I look at it this way: Let's say in life that you've had three relationships, hypothetically, right?
40
Every single one of them failed let's say
41
that you got cheated on in the worst way possible and something so bad happened
42
Would that stop you from still looking for a girlfriend to where you can find a wife
43
and have kids in the future?
44
No, it wouldn't at all.
45
So for certain things in life, you don't let the past affect who you are now but for making money and getting rich you do.
46
If you failed before, if you tried some sort of business model and it never worked out and you just quit.
47
How are you ever gonna not try again?
48
Simply because something happened with the past.
49
So that's the first step.
50
You stop identifying with the past.
51
Because the only reason the past failures
52
and the past would be bad is simply
53
because you didn't hold the identity of someone who can make money in the first place.
54
So how do you actually change your identity?
55
You have to change the things that you were doing on a day to day basis.
56
So let's say you're someone who's not making any money right now and your goal is 10K.
57
Well, what would that 10K a month version of you, how would he think?
58
How fast would he make decisions?
59
How would he act?
60
How would he move?
61
And that's what you need to be doing.
62
So what I want you to do is I want you to write down exactly what your goal is and say, "How do I get here?
63
How do I have to act?
64
How much work do I have to do?
65
What are my beliefs going to be?" So now you see it on paper
66
so you know exactly what you have to do, so you're not going to fall into the old habits like the person that you used to be.
67
But it all starts with basically what you think you deserve out of life.
68
Because the moment that someone is like, "Wow, I'm poor right now and I'm making no money, but I know I deserve something out of life," is when their identity will start slowly picking up.
69
And the way that I change my identity, I think everyone goes through certain things in life where it kind of forces them to grow.
70
Like me when I was 16, my dad obviously overdosed on Xanax.
71
And I think.. that was the thing that forced my identity to change because I was like, I have to become the man now.
72
Like that's what I thought in my head.
73
So it all starts with a mental thing.
74
I was like, I have to become the man.
75
Therefore, I started becoming the man based on what I thought myself as.
76
So you have to realize that everything is perception.
77
Like, the idea that you hold of yourself is who your identity is.
78
That's why, when you look at someone, you're like, "Dang, that guy has charisma, like, he has confidence, he has some sort of, like, aura." Even though I hate that word.
79
That's because He loves himself so much, his idea of himself is that he is just the most confident, just best person in the world.
80
And then you can feel that energy, it reflects on you.
81
But money can also feel that energy.
82
So if you were someone that walked around like you had an infinite amount of money
83
and you were so rich
84
and that's how you moved on a day to day basis like you held that confidence of someone that was already rich, you spoke like someone who was already rich, that is what your identity will be.
85
And at the end of the day, The world is a reflection of your inner state.
86
So everything external doesn't matter your internal is only the other matters, right?
87
Which what does
88
that mean the internal means like who you believe yourself to be what you think you're deserving of
89
and how you act because that's an internal thing But the external follows this is why alchemy is a real thing.
90
It basically states that you could turn anything physical but it starts mental first.
91
So it's basically turning your mental into matter, right?
92
So it's like I think of myself as rich and then I become rich.
93
That is what alchemy is basically to sum it up at the end of the day, but How you do that is like, if you look at, imagine this, and look at it this way.
94
Your inner state, and who you believe yourself to be, is how your life has gone.
95
So if you believe yourself to be someone who is unlucky, who "Life just happens to me and that's what you think," then the external will follow that.
96
The world believes who you are based on who you believe yourself to be and other people as well.
97
The reason why, other people love me so much, and the world loves me, 'cause the world blesses me with everything that I want, and when I say that, I mean like God too, 'cause God's just the one that created the world, so anytime I say world,
98
I'm talking about God as well.
99
But the reason why everyone loves me so much in the world, and God loves me so much, is 'cause I love myself so much.
100
And when you love yourself and you romanticize and you find beauty in everything about yourself, that is what your external will be.
101
Now it will be pure love and it will be pure bliss based on who you believe yourself to be.
102
And I always say perception is reality, but another thing is like if you don't shape reality, reality will shape you.
103
But it all starts with identity, because you will never be able to take action.
104
You don't hold yourself to be someone who is making
105
that certain amount of money that can't even take
106
that action in the first place It's like if someone is making no money, but they want to make 10k, but they don't have the identity of someone that's making 10k
107
That's why they procrastinate because their mind doesn't believe themselves to be a 10k a month person
108
so how to let them work so it's all about tricking your mind and to believe you were someone That's not.
109
And that might be hard for you, you might think right now like, "Oh no, I can't do that." But you can, because before anyone got rich mentally, I mean before anyone got rich physically,
110
they were rich mentally first.
111
they had the idea of how much money they could have, and what their life would look like, and they became that internally.
112
So whatever your goal is, you become that internally, and then the external follows.
113
But when I say that if you don't shape reality, reality will shape you, The reason why people have a bad life is because they don't know who they are.
114
Who they are is based on what people have told them and they are.
115
Their parents, their friends, school, Just like their conditioning and programming, that's made you an identity.
116
But when you think for yourself and what you actually want out of life
117
and what you know you can get out of life, that's when you raise you can get anything
118
but it all starts with breaking limiting beliefs the reason you
119
don't have an identity of someone that's already making money is because you have so many limiting beliefs
120
because everything that's in your mind is programmed and conditioned.
121
Your past, for example.
122
The past version of you was the version of yourself that just listened to what other people had to say about you.
123
Oh, getting rich has been possible.
124
That stuff doesn't work for guys like us.
125
People like that, because I've heard that my whole life.
126
Like my dad used to tell me before he passed away, like, "Oh, getting rich, that's not a real thing.
127
People just get lucky who are rich." So that's a limiting belief that I held, so like, how was I ever gonna get rich without breaking that limiting belief?
128
It wasn't possible for me to get rich without breaking that limiting belief.
129
So it all starts with like, What do you actually want out of life because you at the end of the day?
130
You're the only person that matters I think everyone needs to be a little bit of
131
a narcissist in order to get what they want out of life, because they realize that it is called the universe reason.
132
The universe.
133
Everything around the world
134
Revolves you so when I started kind of viewing myself as the main character I
135
and realize that I'm the only person that matters, That's when I truly sought out what I wanted and not what other people thought.
136
Because people try to bring you down to their level.
137
Someone who's not rich is obviously going to tell you it's impossible because they've never gotten rich.
138
That's why you'll need to only be listening to people who are where you want to be in life.
139
But another thing is like your standards become your true identity.
140
It's like who you hold your standards to.
141
And what that means is like If your standard is making 10k month, would that 10k month person be sleeping till 1pm?
142
Like no he wouldn't, so like you have to have standards in your life and be like, I'm not someone that's gonna let that happen, like I'm not gonna be someone "Oh,
143
wakes up late, that's not the standard I hold for myself." When you believe yourself to be someone that is rich, and that is your identity, you'll stop doing these little bad habits,
144
because you're like, "No, I have more standards for myself." It's like, imagine the standards that you have looking for a girl, those are the same standards you need to have for yourself.
145
And that's when you're able to not procrastinate, that's where the ego comes in, because at the end of the day, Ego everyone thinks it's a bad thing to have an ego
146
if you look up what the word ego means it means you're subconscious and conscious mind
147
coming together to figure out who you are.
148
Ego means identity.
149
So when you have such a big ego
150
and you believe yourself to be someone that's better than everyone you're making all this money.
151
Do you think you would let yourself sleep in late?
152
Do you think you would let yourself push off work?
153
Do you think you would need a week or two to make decisions?
154
No, you make decisions instantly.
155
You start taking action instantly just on based based on your ego and based on who you believe yourself to be.
156
So that's what I want every single one of you to realize it's like right now.
157
You're never gonna get rich unless you kill your old self, until you change your identity.
158
And you have to be thinking to yourself, like, do I deserve the life I live now?
159
And if you think you deserve it, then you're gonna stay there.
160
But if you know that you're meant for more, and you should know that you're meant for more because you are the one that has a desire in your head.
161
No one else around you has it.
162
So you have to be some sort of deserving of it if you already have the idea.
163
Everything in life started with an idea.
164
Before anyone put an invention, like these shoes, into the physical, it came mentally first, based on an idea that they had.
165
So the idea that you hold of yourself, is the strongest thing in the world.
166
Who you believe yourself to be is who the world will give back to you
167
and who the world will believe you to be.
168
So if you're someone who believes yourself to be someone who is making 100K a month, The world has no choice but to bring that to you.
169
That is true manifestation.
170
That is true law of attraction, but it all starts with identity because it goes identity
171
So then your thoughts are different right and your beliefs are different and based on the identity, and then the action comes based on your mind obviously, which is like your thoughts and your beliefs.
172
But identity always comes first.
173
Identity, thoughts, beliefs and then action.
174
The reason you're not able to take action is because you don't have the beliefs in order to take action.
175
You don't have the thoughts in order to take action because obviously you're living subconsciously.
176
Cause like If you have all these limiting beliefs, it comes from the past,
177
it comes from programming, because you don't have an identity of someone who has a different life.
178
Your identity still is just Oh I just can't get rich because I've never seen anyone around me get rich.
179
So you have to raise it all starts with identity.
180
So change who you are, change what you do, change the type of person you believe yourself to be start acting differently, start talking differently.
181
If you literally perform like someone that's rich and that's the idea you have of yourself, Then the thoughts will come like that too your subconscious would be like oh oh Imagine how.
182
your subconscious would look at you, and I'm saying how your subconscious would look at you because at the end of the day, your subconscious doesn't know what's right from wrong.
183
But imagine your subconscious, like how, if subconscious was a physical thing, Like let's say your subconscious was a person.
184
Or let's say it was like God or whatever like looking at you.
185
And it saw you moving like a millionaire, acting like it, talking like it, believing you were deserving of it.
186
then it would 100 % believe that you are that person, 'cause that's what it sees.
187
So now you've tricked your mind, and you've tricked your subconscious, into being someone who has money.
188
Therefore, now your thoughts won't be all these limiting beliefs.
189
'Cause the reason you have limiting beliefs, they're all subconsciously.
190
So you don't even know that they exist.
191
So the first step is obviously awareness, that you are someone right now, who can't make money.
192
'Cause you're trying to chase money, but that's not how money works.
193
So you have to be someone that attracts money.
194
'Cause whenever you are someone that attracts money, that means that money just flows and money just comes to you based on the idea that you hold of yourself.
195
Because your subconscious is 90 % ruling your life right now.
196
And that's fine.
197
Even me, like let's say my subconscious ruling my life.
198
Well my subconscious believes me to be a millionaire, which is why I'm a millionaire.
199
So it's like you have to trick your subconscious by doing things every single day
200
that the richest version of yourself would do.
201
So change your identity and you change your life at the end of the day.
202
And I want every single person to know that until you change who you are, until you change the beliefs you have of yourself, and just like what you think you're deserving of, you'll remain the same.
203
You'll never be able to take action.
204
You're gonna keep procrastinating.
205
It all starts now with identity.
206
Everything and life starts with identity so kill your old self the reason you were
207
that old self right now is based on other people Do you want to live for other people?
208
No. You need to live for yourself.
209
God loves you.
210
God bless you.
211
Peace out.

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.
