1
Hello there and welcome.
2
I'm Bob Proctor.
3
I wanted to talk to you about forming a habit that'll literally change your world.
4
I formed this habit a long time ago, and I'm going to tell you, my world changed like night and day.
5
It worked for me.
6
It'll work for you.
7
But before we get into it, I want you to come back in history with me to September the 12th, 1962.
8
For the eyes of the world now look into space, to the moon and to the planets beyond.
9
Our leadership in science and industry, our hopes for peace and security, our obligations to ourselves as well as others all require us to make this effort, to solve these mysteries, to solve them for the good of all men.
10
There is no strife, no prejudice, no national conflict in outer space as yet.
11
Its hazards are hostile to us all.
12
Its conquest deserves the best of all mankind.
13
We choose to go to the moon.
14
(audience applauds) We choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other things, not be they are easy, but because they are hard, because that challenge is one that we're willing to accept, one we are unwilling to postpone, and one we intend to win.
15
Do you know what John Kennedy did there?
16
He made a decision.
17
That was a decision.
18
It was a big decision, and it changed everything forever.
19
Well, do you know, decision is something most people never really learn, and for good reason.
20
Stay with me, 'cause I'm going to show you something here that you possibly have never looked at before.
21
This book changed everything for me.
22
In this book, it's Napoleon Hill's Think and Grow Rich, There's 15 chapters.
23
There's one chapter, the entire chapter is dedicated to Decision.
24
Now, you may say, well, I make decisions.
25
Do you really?
26
You may make little ones, but do you make the real important ones?
27
Do you go after what you want in life?
28
Do you get everything you want in life?
29
See, the truth is, only about three percent of the people are really living the way they want to live, driving the car they want to drive, taking the trips they want to take, living in the houses they wanna live in.
30
Most people do not, and they'll tell you why they can't, and they'll give you a string of reasons a mile long.
31
All seem very practical, very reasonable, and the leader of them all is, they can't afford it.
32
Well, the truth is, we live in the richest country in the history of the world.
33
Money is the easiest thing in the world to earn, once you learn how.
34
Well, if you turn making a decision into a habit, you're going to learn how to do a whole lot of things you may think you can't do.
35
See, what we're doing is we're exploring a side of our personality that we really don't understand.
36
Now, I photographed a page out of here.
37
Napoleon Hill said "Those who reach decisions promptly and definitely know what they want, and they generally get it.
38
The leaders in every walk of life decide quickly and firmly.
39
That's the major reason why they're leaders.
40
He said, the world has the habit of making room for the man or woman whose words and actions show they know where they're going." And he went on to explain why we have difficulty here for very good reason.
41
"Indecision is a habit which usually begins in youth.
42
The habit takes on permanency as the youth goes through grade school, high school, eventually through college, without any definite purpose.
43
The major weakness of all educational systems is that they neither teach or encourage the habit of definite decision." Now, why is that?
44
Well, the truth is, most people really don't know.
45
We're dealing with a side of our personality that most people do not understand.
46
What you see here is not me.
47
This is my body.
48
You never hear anyone say, am hand.
49
You see, we've got to take a look at the non-physical side of ourselves.
50
Lincoln, President Lincoln put that very well.
51
He said "To believe in the things you can see and touch is no belief at all, but to believe in the unseen is a triumph and a blessing." Well, let's look at this.
52
Making a decision, we're going to into the unseen part of ourselves, using faculties most people don't even know they've got.
53
You see, Einstein said "The intuitive mind is a sacred gift," while he said, "The rational mind is a faithful servant." He said, "We have created a society that honors the servant and has forgotten the gift." What is the servant?
54
Well, there it is there.
55
It's our sensory factors.
56
We can see, hear, smell, taste, touch.
57
What are they for?
58
They're to help us correspond and communicate with our outside world.
59
But you know that the physical world is nothing but the manifestation of the non-physical world.
60
That's right.
61
Here, we've got something that's nothing short of a miracle when we look at it properly.
62
This is a little cell phone.
63
It has more power than the computer had that took the first rocket to the moon.
64
Think of that.
65
And I'm carrying it around in my pocket.
66
I can touch a button and bang, like that, send a picture to you, and you'll get it, simultaneous with me sending it.
67
How does all that happen?
68
Well, it happens because we're dealing with the non-physical side of ourselves.
69
We're dealing with just pure power.
70
How do we get at that?
71
Well, we've been gifted.
72
We've been gifted with something no other from of animal life has.
73
We have these higher faculties.
74
You've got perception, memory, imagination, will, reason, intuition.
75
I want you to shift your perception for a moment of yourself.
76
You know, our good friend the late Wayne Dyer, he put it very well.
77
He said, "When you change the way you look at something, what you look at will change." Change your perception.
78
Do you know the reason most people don't make decisions?
79
'Cause they can't see how they're going to get there.
80
So what do they do?
81
They keep doing things that they can see how they're going to get there, and that's why their life never really changes.
82
Stick with me here for a moment.
83
Think of you.
84
You are a mass of energy, and you function on frequencies.
85
That's what you are.
86
Take a look at yourself.
87
Here's a shot taken by Kirlian photography.
88
Semyon Kirlian was a Russian who perfected a form of photography way back in the early 30s.
89
It'll photograph mass where you can photograph the energy leaving the body.
90
There's a glow of energy around you.
91
This physical thing we live in is a mass of energy.
92
Well, we're going to be talking about the non-physical side.
93
You see, a frequency is a level of vibration.
94
Do you know vibration is a natural law of the universe?
95
Everything vibrates.
96
Nothing rests.
97
We live in an ocean of motion.
98
Now, there's an infinite number of frequencies.
99
Now, get this.
100
Let all these lines represent levels of vibration, okay?
101
Levels of vibration, as we said, are referred to as frequencies.
102
You and I think on frequencies, the highest function we're capable of.
103
Now, here's where you really wanna pay attention.
104
This, if you get this, if I communicate this effectively, your life can change, 'cause it sure changed mine.
105
We think on a frequency and the frequency we think on dictates the results we get.
106
So, we're sitting here and you see, these are the results, but this is where I really wanna go, and we point to a star.
107
Some say, what do you really want?
108
I really wanna be wealthy.
109
Do you know that most people never live the way they really want to live?
110
They don't.
111
They never earn the amount of money they can.
112
They don't live in the house they really want to live in.
113
They don't take the vacations they really wanna take.
114
Why? Because they don't know how.
115
You see, when they set those targets, they look off into a space, and they see nothing.
116
Now, look here for a moment.
117
These lines represent levels of frequency, or you could say levels of awareness.
118
But when we set the target way up there, it's all gone.
119
We don't know how to get there.
120
Think of that.
121
Think of what Steve Jobs says.
122
You cannot connect the dots looking forward.
123
You can only connect them looking backwards.
124
So you have to trust that the dots are going to connect as you go ahead.
125
Now, that's pretty big.
126
If you're going to look at the unseen, you have to use the higher faculties.
127
That's what Einstein talked about, the sacred gift.
128
We can use faculties to look into the future.
129
We can go into the future with our imagination and see ourself where we wanna be a year from now, and then bring that into the present and begin acting like the person we wanna become.
130
So, let's go back and look at this again.
131
We'll say, that's where I wanna go, and I'm going to get there.
132
Now, we do make decisions, but then we say, mm, I'm not going to start yet.
133
I'm going to do that as soon as I get the money.
134
I talked to a young couple.
135
In fact, I wrote about them in a book, Pat and John.
136
I sat with them in a hotel in Toronto, and they said they wanted to buy a house.
137
And I said, well, go on out and buy one.
138
They said, we can't buy a house.
139
We haven't got any money.
140
I said, you don't need any money.
141
They looked at me rather strangely.
142
I said, what do you need the money for?
143
You haven't made the decision to buy the house.
144
Do you see, you don't need the money until after you make the decision.
145
A person says, I wanna take a trip, and I'm gonna go as soon as they get the money.
146
You don't need the money to make the decision to take the trip.
147
I'm going to start my own business, as soon as everything's right.
148
Things are never going to be right.
149
You've got to make a decision.
150
Now, do you see, when you make the decision, everything starts to change.
151
Look at this for a moment.
152
You're thinking down here on this frequency, and that's what's giving you the results you're getting.
153
If you want to go where you say you wanna go, you've got to get on that frequency.
154
You see the truth is, you're not thinking about getting there.
155
You're letting the present results repeat, and that's the star you're shooting at.
156
You're going to get the same results over and over and over again, as long as you keep your thinking there.
157
You've got to get your thinking up on this higher frequency.
158
Because when you get on that frequency, the thoughts and things that are going to come into your mind will take you there.
159
How do you think we got to the moon?
160
Kennedy didn't know how to get to the moon.
161
When he asked Dr. Wernher von Braun, who's considered the father of the space program, what will it take for us to build rocket to carry a man to the moon and bring him back safely to earth, he said the will to do it.
162
The will is one of your higher faculties.
163
That's what Einstein was talking about.
164
The will gives you the ability to focus on one thing to the exclusion of everything else.
165
When you focus on that one thing, you're on that higher frequency.
166
How do you do that?
167
Well, first, you've got to make a decision to go there.
168
You see, your mind and thoughts must be focused on the same frequency as your goal.
169
How do we do that?
170
We make a committed decision.
171
That's where I'm going.
172
And when you make the committed decision, it's irrevocable.
173
You cannot go back.
174
You shut the past off.
175
You begin thinking on this higher frequency, and you think and act like the person you wanna become.
176
Does it sound preposterous?
177
That's what the Wright Brothers did, and they introduced us to a new kingdom.
178
That's what Sir Edmund Hillary did.
179
I had the good fortune of working with him.
180
He was a beekeeper from Auckland, New Zealand.
181
He was the first person to ever climb Mount Everest.
182
He didn't know how to get to the top of that mountain until after he got there.
183
He trusted in the image that he held in his mind.
184
You've got to trust in the image you hold in your mind.
185
You've gotta think like the person you wanna become.
186
It takes a decision to get up on that higher frequency, and the secund you make the decision, everything starts to happen.
187
But you've gotta believe you can do it.
188
The moment your belief matches with any state, the higher frequency is the state.
189
The moment your belief matches with any frequency, you fuse with it, and this union results in the activation, the projection of plots and plans and conditions and circumstances.
190
Things start to happen.
191
Think about it.
192
You're going to a dance.
193
You need the new dress.
194
You make a decision you're getting it.
195
You don't know where the money's coming from, but you've gotta have the dress.
196
You get the dress.
197
You want that car.
198
You make a decision.
199
You get the money, you get the car.
200
The moment your belief matches with any state, you fuse with it, and this union results in everything that happens.
201
Now, look. This new state of conscious awareness becomes your home from which you view the world.
202
You're operating on a different frequency.
203
Don't expect a lot of support from the people around you.
204
They don't know what you're doing.
205
They probably think you've gone a little crazy.
206
But listen.
207
In your workshop, and if you're observant, you're going to see your outer reality shaping itself upon the model of your imagination.
208
Do you wanna know the beautiful truth?
209
This works like unadulterated magic.
210
It does. This is what all out Proctor-Gallagher Institute programs deal with.
211
I want you to control the flow.
212
There's thought energy flowing to and through you.
213
It's flowing freely to and through you.
214
Make certain it improves everything that it connects with.
215
You've got all of this power locked up within you.
216
Utilize it.
217
Go after what you want.
218
Quit going after things you already know how to get.
219
There's no real game in that.
220
Don't compromise.
221
Go after what you want.
222
It's not that easy, but I'm going to tell you something.
223
It sure is worthwhile.
224
Turn decision-making into a habit.
225
And when you do that, everything changes.
226
See, I didn't go back to school.
227
No formal education.
228
I didn't gain any business experience.
229
I made a decision and bang, away I went.
230
And everything started to fall into place.
231
I opened offices in different countries, different cities.
232
I earned all kinds of money.
233
I had money coming to me while I was sleeping, and so can you.
234
In fact, if you turn this into a system, you can earn more money when you're sleeping than you'll spend when you're awake.
235
Decision. It'll change your world.

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.
