Shadowing Practice: I'M GOING TO MAKE IT - Motivational Speech - Learn English Speaking with Video

This is the end.

You're gonna lose everything.

You won't come out of this.

You're not smart enough.

You're not bright enough.

You don't have the money.

You don't have the help.

Those are kind of voices we all live with.

Because of our mental conditioning,

we unconsciously build a case on why we can't do something.

You can't do that.

You don't have any college training.

You can't do that.

You don't have the money have the context.

That inner conversation is what's gonna haunt you to go back leading a life of mediocrity,

leading a life of poverty.

It's a natural inclination for us to put ourselves down.

See we are born negative I think in a negative consciousness because we live in a negative world.

Don't let this negative world get to you, don't let it win.

Stop beating up on yourself.

You do do it, I know you do it, I've done it.

Life is serious, and you have to be serious about taking care of your mental state.

You know life is going to happen.

Life is going to throw some serious blows,

and they're going to hurt.

But don't let it bother you.

You have to learn to turn and look at every obstacle as an opportunity.

It's not what happens to you.

It's how you respond to what happens to you that decides if you're going to be successful or not.

Because I think a lot of times when you look back,

it's the darkest moments where you realize,

holy cow, that's what projected me forward.

Even in your darkest moments and your lowest points in your life,

you have resilience, toughness, inner strength.

I got news for you.

It can help develop your faith because if you believe hard enough,

it is really faith.

You just got to transpose it into I hope this happened to I believe this can happen.

You got to find ways to increase your sense of self-appreciation because if you don't,

you're bombarded with negative stuff every day that beats you down and you will find yourself unconsciously engaged in self-destructive behavior.

If you don't program yourself, life will program you.

So I'm saying learn to be your own booster.

Start building yourself up.

Start encouraging yourself.

You've got to decide that I'm going to be fearless.

I refuse to be denied.

And I'm going to go all out.

I'm going to be relentless.

I don't care how many no's I encounter.

You can't make a basket unless you shoot the ball.

You can't hit a home run unless you take a swing at it.

Most people won't even take a swing.

Well, I probably won't make it anyhow.

That's the conversation within.

They probably won't give it to me anyhow.

If you want something, you've got to be relentless.

You've got to decide, I deserve this and I'm going to have it.

Turn a deaf ear to people that all they can do is talk about how negative things are

because they have bought into the consciousness of the world.

No, no. You want some?

You make up your mind.

I'm not going to live like a cringing animal.

I don't care how many speeches I have to give,

how many seminars I have to give.

I know I ain't got the money.

I know I don't have the education.

But I ain't going to let that stop me.

I'm going to do it.

Begin to recondition your mind, to retrain your thinking.

Listen to things that can empower you,

that can enable you to create a new reality for yourself and a new life for yourself.

You might appear to be strange around most people,

but you've got to learn how to tune out the critics outside and the critic inside.

You ignore that inner voice and all of the external voices.

Don't judge the possibilities for what you can do based upon the circumstances,

because the circumstances won't determine who you are.

You don't care anything about the odds.

When the dream is big enough, the odds don't matter.

Start saying, I can do this.

I can make this happen.

Come on, man, get yourself together.

You can do this.

You can handle this.

This is not a big deal.

This too shall pass.

You can handle this.

You just haven't figured it out yet.

You've got your gifts.

You've got your talents.

Stay focused on what you're doing.

Focus your energy.

That kind of self-talk drives back those voices of negativity that we all have

And opens you up to the possibilities of expanding your life You've got to be willing to prepare yourself

and do the best you can,

take your best shot Start working and developing yourself now

and prepare yourself for what it is that you want Because you expect to get it You're gonna have to run faster,

you're gonna have to run further Then you're gonna have to jump higher Reach inside for something else,

something else besides average or good, something great.

I don't care what happens to you in life,

100

what type of negativity happens.

101

We all gonna take a L,

102

but how are you going to respond?

103

Life is your classroom, it ain't failure if you learn from it.

104

You fail the class, get back up and try again.

105

You lose a job, get back up and try again.

106

You put all your money in investment,

107

get back and try again.

108

And you start a business and it don't work.

109

Don't stop, don't quit.

110

Fail forward.

111

Learn from each and every one of your mistakes.

112

If you fall, fall on your back so you can look up.

113

Cause if you can look up,

114

then you can get up.

115

I need you to have hearts.

116

Because there's something you just can't get without perseverance.

117

You gotta position yourself and stop fighting.

118

Some looking at what other people are getting and looking at what they're doing and if you start doing it,

119

you'll start getting it.

120

You don't get out of life what you want,

121

you get out of life what you earn.

122

I stopped saying I've got to wait for good things to happen to me and I said I'm going to grind.

123

I'm not waiting for life to happen to me.

124

I'm going to strategize and make it happen.

125

You're going to go to the next level if you stop stopping every time it gets hard.

126

If you stop complaining and you face the goal

127

and you face the obstacle and you put your heart

128

and your mind and to do whatever it takes to get it done,

129

I promise you, it's gonna be the best year of your life.

130

Life is gonna give everybody a bad hand.

131

No one's gonna leave here without being tried in life.

132

Adversity makes the strong stronger or the weaker weaker.

133

But how do you keep going?

134

Why do you keep going?

135

What is it that will make it worth it for you?

136

When you want to give up and things are working against you to face the rejections.

137

What makes you get up when you fall down?

138

What makes your mentality change?

139

If there's a great situation or there's a bad situation.

140

How do you dictate that based on the level of pain?

141

Cause I think that's what we're getting in trouble at.

142

That's why many are called but few are chosen.

143

Because everybody won't get the beat down.

144

Everybody's not willing to face rejection.

145

Everybody won't take the controversy.

146

Everybody won't take the heat.

147

Everybody won't hold themselves to a higher standard.

148

Because, see, pain is tricky.

149

Because if you don't control pain, it'll control you.

150

Until you learn how to figure it out,

151

until you learn how to tap it on the back and say,

152

I know you there, but I'm built to deal with you.

153

Make a declaration to yourself.

154

Declare all out war that you're going to get out of this rut.

155

I'm bigger than this.

156

I got me here, I can get me out of this.

157

And I'm getting out.

158

I'm not going to be a volunteer victim.

159

I'm not going to let this get me down.

160

I'm not going to let this destroy me.

161

I'm coming back.

162

We must find a way to push through pain because there's something greater on the other side of it.

163

Life's going to whip your butt.

164

Life is going to wooly you.

165

Stop whining.

166

Stop crying.

167

Nobody cares.

168

Be demanding.

169

Let it hit you, but don't let it pump you.

170

All I'm saying is don't quit.

171

I didn't say don't rest.

172

I didn't say don't recover.

173

I said don't quit.

174

Mentally, you ain't got to take off.

175

Mentally, you can stay connected.

176

No matter how bad it is or how bad it gets,

177

I'm going to make it.

178

I can, I will, I must be demanding.

179

You must have patience and engage in consistent action.

180

Even if no one else believes that you can do it,

181

even if the odds are stacked against you,

182

even if your chances of survival are slim to none,

183

say to yourself, no matter how bad it is or how bad it gets,

184

I'm going to make it.

185

Go get your doggone stuff and don't let nobody tell you no.

186

You go get your stuff and you go get all your stuff Because God gave you that stuff,

187

and they don't have a right to take it from you.

188

It's a dog fight.

189

It hasn't been easy.

190

It's a dog fight.

191

The road hasn't been successful.

192

Like, it's just a paved road,

193

and like, each he go this way.

194

It's been rough.

195

It's been crooked.

196

It's been hard.

197

But I've made up in my mind that I will get a reward for the pain that I go through.

198

I will not stop in the middle of the process.

199

I will not be defeated.

200

I will not be destroyed.

201

I will take everything that happens in my life and I will allow the pain to push me to greatness.

202

You will not break me.

203

You will not stop me.

204

You will not defeat me.

205

The only way I lose is if I quit.

206

It's going to be a dogfight.

207

I choose to fight back.

208

Life is rough.

209

You can allow it to destroy you or you can allow it to build you up.

210

Draw the line, ladies and gentlemen.

211

Just say enough is enough.

212

There's nothing as powerful as the human spirit.

213

You can't destroy it.

214

You can pervert it, but you can't destroy it.

215

If you can't fly, run.

216

If you can't run, walk.

217

If you can't walk, crawl.

218

But by all means, keep moving.

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.
