1
Never let yourself be the victim.
2
If I could go back in time and have a conversation with my eight to ten -year -old self,
3
that would be the message I would give.
4
Because when you think about it, you're a kid, things don't go your way, what do you do?
5
You cry, you whine, you throw a fit, you want your parents to feel sorry for you.
6
You feel sorry for yourself
7
It's how how you deal with things at that age and then you grow up
8
But you don't necessarily shed that habit that mentality
9
And it becomes obvious, right?
10
I mean you can talk to someone for 30 seconds
11
and you know right away if they have that victim mentality the world's falling down They're tired.
12
They have so much to do.
13
They're so busy X Y and Z
14
look having that mindset does two things for you one it makes you come across helpless
15
and weak and no one wants to come across
16
that way two it does not get you to where you're going
17
it does not change the situation right here's the reality there is always a way to get what you want there
18
There is always a way to position yourself to move away from what you don't want.
19
You can quite literally become what you want to become, but you cannot look at life like it's this problem, like it's against you.
20
The ball is in your court.
21
You know, it wasn't that long ago, two, three years ago, that I was not the happiest guy in the world, right?
22
Did not like what I was doing, did not like how I was spending my time, was not energized was not passionate about very much
23
but the time came where I didn't want to live like
24
that I had a conversation with myself I stopped being the victim I stopped complaining
25
and I asked myself dude what do you want what is
26
your purpose what is your goal who do you want to become
27
and I literally made the decision and walked away a different person and the things around me changed,
28
my life changed because I made a decision to never be the victim again to get what I want.
29
I became the author of my own story.
30
And you realize just how simple it is to transform your situation.
31
Not easy, right?
32
And it takes time.
33
But there's always a way to get from point A to point B.
34
And this separates the world into two kinds of people.
35
People who look at how things are, who accept reality as truth, who complain, and people who look at what can be,
36
who make the most of any situation, look at life as if it's clay, to be molded, to be shaped.
37
It seems funny to me, knowing what I do now, that I went through any of my life like a hamster on a wheel.
38
That I talked to people every day who didn't energize me, that I didn't want to be around,
39
that I did things I wasn't passionate about, that is insanity.
40
Because if you don't like something, but you do nothing to change it, what's left for you to do?
41
Complain, whine, stay where you are, that's it.
42
See, one of the reasons I reference athletics so much is
43
because they bring this mentality on you that when things become difficult
44
when things become challenging your job your one job is to find a way to figure it out
45
and i always did and i took that
46
and i brought it to everything else i do
47
and now it's eye -opening to see people achieving success financial freedom these things everyone wants
48
and know that the difference between them and everyone else is
49
that they felt like they deserved it a lot of the time they weren't smarter stronger.
50
They weren't more gifted starting out, but they moved toward what they wanted.
51
They didn't cry or groan about the problems.
52
They didn't look for sympathy.
53
Those at the top of the mountain are not victims.
54
They would never let themselves be victims.
55
It's about the other side, the opportunity, getting from where you are to what you want.
56
Thank you.

- De “th”-klanken: athletic /æθˈlɛt.ɪk/, sympathy /ˈsɪm.pəθ.i/

Klanken die Nederlandstaligen lastig vinden:
- Stemhebbende eindmedeklinker — /b/, /d/, /g/, /z/, /v/ niet verscherpen: mold /moʊld/, energize /ˈɛnəd͡ʒaɪz/
- /æ/ — opener dan de Nederlandse “e”: mentality /mɛnˈtæləti/, passionate /ˈpæʃənɪt/, habit /ˈhæb.ɪt/, athletic /æθˈlɛt.ɪk/, transform /tɹænsˈfɔɹm/

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.
