1
Where the f* are you going, bro?
2
Whatever you do, runners, right now, just don't think about the 135 miles of scorching highway in front of you.
3
What do you want to do with your life?
4
A harmless man is not a good man.
5
A good man is a very, very dangerous man who has that under voluntary control.
6
You have to have no fear.
7
You have to have no fear.
8
You have to believe in who you are and what you do and just go f*ing get it.
9
What you need is the one thing I talked in my book, which is straight up brutal work ethic.
10
You have to be willing to outwork everybody in the world.
11
No, I'm on.
12
Somebody out there, they're working harder than you.
13
No!
14
No!
15
No!
16
Somebody work harder than you!
17
Somebody work harder than you!
18
No!
19
No!
20
Somebody work harder than you!
21
Why be normal when you can be the best?
22
I don't want to be normal.
23
I want to make the difference everything I do, I want to make the difference.
24
Because when I make the difference, I'm the best.
25
And that is not arrogance, that is confidence.
26
There's human beings that have different temperament and different minds
27
and different mentality and a ruthless competitive drive that's almost terrifying to the ordinary person.
28
You gotta work, your time is gonna happen.
29
You're here for a reason, but you gotta be ready because if you're not, it's on you.
30
But once I learned that the difference between him and I was just between the ears, once I was equipped with that,
31
I started to believe that this guy was truly the limit for me.
32
And I'm still that person today.
33
Pain motivates significantly faster and stronger than pleasure does.
34
Like people are like, no, passion's the right way.
35
It's like point a gun at a family member, all of a sudden, 10 out of 10 motivation.
36
Pain.
37
It's not a bad thing to be unique.
38
It's not a bad thing to be different.
39
It's not a bad thing to be comfortable with yourself regardless of what everybody else around you is doing.
40
Know that if you have big goals and big dreams, along the way failure is going to happen.
41
So how fast do you get up from that?
42
People either survive in the jungle or exist in the zoo.
43
Few recognize the significance of the paradoxical reconciliation of the two.
44
You know, greatness is not meant for a few chosen people.
45
It's meant for those who persistently pursue their dreams every day and make that choice when they wake up.
46
So, just a mentality really.
47
And so nothing is easy.
48
Like, running is running.
49
It sucks.
50
But you have a choice to make.
51
Do you want to sit down and go back to that guy you once were?
52
No. So this is what it takes.
53
When your excuses make you feel a little bit better, better about the fact that you didn't execute on what you needed to execute on,
54
then they can make you feel better.
55
But they're not helping you.
56
They're not helping you at all.
57
And I'm telling you from the bottom of my soul, it is so easy to beat people today.
58
They are so soft.
59
They have no work ethic.
60
No one can stick with anything.
61
Everyone's distracted.
62
There are social media.
63
They're counting their f.
64
They can't say no. Everybody's great when they're not tired.
65
The champions is when they're tired, that's when the real champions come out.
66
That's when that real dog come out.
67
Because if you go piss like a puppy, stay on the porch and let the big dogs eat.
68
Let them on the field.
69
Have some heart.
70
I never ran from anything because I didn't have nobody to go to.
71
I've always had that, where I'm going?
72
Home to get me?
73
Ain't nobody there.
74
You know what I'm saying?
75
Like, so I've always been in a situation where I'm forced to deal with it myself, so.
76
You know, when you're going through something really challenging, how do you show up within it?
77
Do you choose to become a victim of complaining and misery and sh, or do you find meaning in how you show up in the suffering, you know?
78
I give you the map.
79
You are willing to do that?
80
Yeah.
81
That's the main point, because everyone wants to be Christian, but I give you the map you think you will do it
82
that it's difficult it's a discipline the discipline is the most difficult thing not only in sports
83
but in the life
84
if you have to ask how to get motivated to go
85
to the gym you don't need to be going to the gym you don't want it enough
86
when you're sick and tired of looking and feeling like sh, you'll show up.
87
I'll see you there.
88
Because you're gonna look in the mirror and you're gonna be like, fk that.
89
You kind of want to be in the gym.
90
The problems in your life are your own dang fault.
91
And so the answer to fixing the problems in your life are in your own dang hands.
92
The responsibility for the well-being of your family,
93
your wife, your husband, your children are yours. Are yours.
94
Look at all those people down there.
95
They follow the rules for what?
96
They're letting fear lead down.
97
What happens if they don't?
98
Life's simple.
99
You make choices and you don't look back Why go to a tournament if you're not going there to try and win?
100
There's really no point in even going
101
That's the attitude I've had my entire life And that's the attitude I will always have
102
As I will explain to my dad, second sucks And third's even worse
103
That's just a feeling I have But on tour that's not too bad sometimes though That's not too bad, but I want to win That's just my nature
104
You're not even motivated yourself
105
Like I want to say I want to wake you up
106
at 3 o'clock in the morning go come on man We're
107
going running like I'm gonna see I'm gonna see what you do when you're tired
108
Let me see how you push yourself come on man get
109
up get up again tomorrow get up again tomorrow Get up
110
again tomorrow the next day get up get up get up keep going How long can you maintain a positive attitude?
111
Where's all this teaching you're teaching people you can't do yourself?
112
They need to show people that you can do it the thing is with me is I don't give up I
113
I don't give a f*.
114
I don't give a s* what anybody says or what anybody thinks.
115
I have this mindset.
116
I know exactly who the f* I am.
117
I have my circle of people that I hang around with who know me and know what I'm about and whatever.
118
And anybody else who doesn't like it or doesn't want it?
119
Bad.
120
Okay.
121
The bad days create the story that I'm one day going to tell myself about what I got through.
122
You know what I mean?
123
Yeah.
124
Without the bad days, the story would be way more lame.
125
There would be no glory in overcoming anything, because what did you overcome?
126
It was all just 40 to 60, you know, vanilla ice cream mush, grey existence.
127
Keep cool with me, baby.
128
Keep cool with me.
129
I love it.
130
I love it.
131
Listen.
132
Listen.
133
People have been fooling me a thousand feet since I started training.
134
I love it.
135
The more you boo me, the stronger I get, baby.
136
I'm used to this.
137
Y'all can't stop me.
138
Keep it up, baby.
139
Keep it up.
140
Y'all can't stop me.
141
It's so easy to be great nowadays, my friend, because most people are weak.
142
Most people don't want to go to that extra mile.
143
Most people don't want to find that extra because it sucks.
144
It's miserable.
145
It's lonely.
146
You talk about that you were kind of lonely by yourself.
147
I was the same way and that used to hurt me growing up.
148
Now I'm thriving and sh.
149
That's the only place to be.
150
Listen, every day when you get out of bed, life's standing right there to kick you in the fking face, man.
151
Could be anything.
152
Could be you get up and you walk downstairs, you got a fking flat tire and you're late for work and you got this and that.
153
Life is gonna throw all kinds of crazy sh at you, right?
154
And you have to be ready for it and you gotta fking deal with it.
155
Can't curl up into a ball.
156
You can't run away from it.
157
You can't hide you have to take all this head-on
158
You have to get up every day
159
when I get up from out of bed I strap up
160
and I'm getting ready for
161
Or well what I like about it is I'm doing something
162
I don't want to do every time I start doing things I don't want to do, I grow.
163
Yes!
164
That is a lesson that people need to hear and learn.
165
It's so important because everybody just wants to be comfortable.
166
Everybody wants to sit on the couch, I don't want to go outside, it's cold.
167
I don't want to do this, it's hot.
168
Like you've got to do things that you don't want to do
169
because you show your body that your mind is the boss.
170
Your mind is telling your body what to do and then you have control.
171
It's not that simple.
172
Why not?
173
No, that's the biggest lie I was ever told.
174
And it's a lie they tell you over and over again.
175
What's not simple?
176
Any of it.
177
All of it.
178
It's how they get you to give up.
179
They say it's not that simple, Vinny. So what's the truth? That it is.
180
and you realize it is that simple that it always was.
181
Don't half-ass it.
182
Don't half-ass it.
183
Boy, that never goes out of style, does it?
184
I mean, think about it.
185
If you're gonna do something, if you've chosen to do something, whatever, it's easy, hard.
186
If you give it your all and you don't half-ass it, win, lose, draw, get what you want, don't get what you want, whatever the outcome is, If you don't half-ass it,
187
at least you're not going to have to wonder, ooh, would the outcome be different?
188
What if I did give away?
189
And boy, wondering that is what keeps us up at night.
190
I'm tired.
191
I'm moving in slow motion, but I need to go to the gym and dumbbell press 150 pound dumbbells.
192
Like how does that translate?
193
My mind doesn't think I can do it.
194
I'm severely underestimating my strength that I can't pick this can up.
195
But when I get to the gym I need to overpower my mind and just do it.
196
I need to understand that I still have the muscle, I still have the strength of just being a lazy little b right now
197
and I need to pick up that weight and do it and overpower it.
198
And sometimes when you're getting in there and you're overthinking
199
and all these things come in too much of like I have to do this, this and this, I have to do a four sigma negative, oh my god that's gonna be so hard, I should drop the weight then, like no. Just get in there, know what you can do,
200
bust your ass and get out of there.
201
Sometimes overthinking it holds you back.
202
If you don't keep your promise, then what are you really?
203
Your promise, your word is your reputation and your reputation precedes you anywhere you go.
204
Sadly, these days everyone's so willing, so quick to break promises and to ghost people and to say something but do the other thing.
205
And I don't know, maybe I come from a generation that's different or maybe I just don't know any better.
206
But I'm telling you right now, a man who can keep his promise and who can keep his word is a man of higher reputation, of higher value, and higher self-worth.
207
Right?
208
If you have like self-esteem, self-confidence problems, it's because you probably haven't been keeping promises to yourself.
209
A man who has high confidence keeps promises that he makes to himself and to others.
210
I became obsessed.
211
I became obsessed with being the baddest that God ever created.
212
Am I that?
213
I don't care.
214
I believe it.
215
And I was trying to tell him, once you become obsessed with something, Obsessed.
216
It's okay to be unbalanced for a while.
217
It's okay.
218
Don't be all this stuff.
219
People say, you gotta be balanced.
220
To be the best in the world at what you do.
221
It's not about being a Navy SEAL, people.
222
The best at what you do, you have to be unbalanced to find every bit of energy and strength that you have to pull it off.
223
Then you get balanced once you become great.
224
Remember to tell yourself the truth.
225
Remember to tell yourself the truth.
226
You know what that means.
227
The truth is you need to do more.
228
The truth is you need to be more.
229
To reach your fullest, maximum capacity and capability as a human being.
230
And if you tell yourself that truth, you will find discipline.
231
And if you find discipline, you will find freedom.
232
You'll be less than, you'll be a loser if you don't.
233
I can't leave the gym.
234
You won.
235
You won.
236
When you walk out of here today, nothing.
237
You've won.
238
Imagine walking out the door a loser.
239
I'd rather die.
240
I would rather die than be that loser guy.
241
Think about that.
242
Do you want to walk out that door a damn loser or do you want to walk out the door a winner?
243
I'll fight to the death.
244
And sometimes I actually went close to death.
245
It sounds crazy, but you got to give it that much.
246
If you want results, otherwise you'll be like everybody else.
247
The majority of the population, they think they're training hard.
248
That was hard.
249
Everyone thinks you're crazy until it works.
250
And so I mean if you think of the outcome as the trump card, then all of the pain and suffering that you lead up to that point, if you're just...
251
I'm trying to think of an appropriate saying.
252
I was going to say balls deep certain.
253
That no matter what, you will die or you will get there.
254
Then the likelihood that all of the things that you've done up to
255
that point will then be justified in retrospect is super high And I actually see that as super
256
Compelling as a thing to latch on to in harder times Those I can't catch a break guys.
257
Yeah get them the away from me.
258
I can't I can't be around those guys I don't want to hear that shit.
259
I don't want to hear that shit I don't buy it because everybody has bad breaks.
260
Yeah, I've had a ton of bad breaks, but you know what I did I I stayed up and I thought through it.
261
And I figured out what the f* I did wrong and then I went back.
262
It's like I f*ed up everything I've ever done a hundred times.
263
There's no other way to do it.
264
And I've had a bunch of s* breaks.
265
Everybody has.
266
But you've got to realize when you have those s* breaks what that is.
267
It's an opportunity for you to reassess, reboot, get better, figure out another way, find another way through.
268
It's just little challenges.
269
And the people that look at those challenges and go, why do I always have these challenges?
270
They're cancer.
271
Those people are dangerous to be around.
272
They will rob you of your enthusiasm.
273
They don't give you any fuel.
274
They're the opposite of fuel.
275
Yeah.
276
You have to dive in that to find more.
277
Because if you're not willing to go in there and face yourself, you're not going to find anything.
278
You're going to live right here on the surface, man.
279
Right here on the surface.
280
So if there is an ending to this world, and there is somewhere to go, and there's a judgement, you're going to get there and you might see a chart.
281
And that chart may tell you who the you should have been.
282
And now you get the rest of your life to think about that.
283
Man, I could have lived a much better life if I just would have just suffered a little bit more.
284
If I just would have went in that and realized I had so much more.
285
But fear and the 40% and living here versus living here, being afraid, stopped me.
286
So people always ask me, when they saw me in the gym in the pumping iron days, they say, why is it that you're working out so hard,
287
five hours a day, six hours a day, and you have always a smile on your face?
288
The others are working out just as hard as you do, and they look sour in the face.
289
Why is that?
290
And I told people all the time, I said, because to me, I am shooting for a goal.
291
In front of me is the Mr. Universe title.
292
So every rep that I do gets me closer to accomplishing that goal, to make this goal, this vision, turn into reality.
293
Every single set that I do, every repetition, every weight that I lift will get me a step closer to turn this goal into reality.
294
The man who never fell has no glory.
295
The man who fell and got back up, that's where his glory is.
296
The man who fell 20 times and got up 21 times, that man has even greater glory.
297
Wow.
298
That man has more courage, way more courage than the guy who was so strong from birth that he never fell.

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.
