1
If I only had three minutes to change your life, this is exactly what I would say.
2
Your whole life changes the minute you decide that there is nothing in your way.
3
Your skin color, your identity, your family ties, none of it matters, because that's not what's holding you back.
4
To be the person that you want to be and to make the impact that you want to make, you have to stop listening to your own excuses.
5
You have to stop holding yourself back in order to get to where you're trying to go.
6
And the fastest way to get to where you want to go in life is to change your environment.
7
is your number one distraction.
8
This is what's likely holding you back, keeping you feeling stuck and comfortable and not pursuing your goals.
9
Your friends, your relationships, the physical location where you live, all of it, probably needs to change if you want to build your dream life.
10
In order to truly level up, the hard truth is that you're going to have to change your entire environment.
11
Once you change your environment, you have to understand that you already have everything inside you that you need in order to be successful.
12
But you want to know what is not going to help you be successful?
13
Prescription medication is not going to solve your problems.
14
ADHD, learning disabilities, these are excuses that you're using to not be winning at life.
15
And medicating these things will not solve your problems.
16
You are the only person who is able to solve your problems.
17
No one is coming to save you.
18
No pill is coming to save you.
19
Remember that if you want to make an impact
20
have everything that it takes
21
but this great life won't actually start until you figure out what is stopping you
22
and the number one thing
23
that held me back was control you see as a young
24
girl I used to have this quote on my desk from Gandhi
25
and it said be the change you want to see in the world
26
and I really wanted to help people and I really desired to make a difference in the world.
27
But how could I have done that if I couldn't even control my choices and how I spent my time?
28
How am I controlling the amount of studying that I'm doing?
29
How am I controlling what I put into my body?
30
If I can't control what time I go to bed at night and what time I wake up in the morning, what are the chances that I'm actually going to be able to control my life enough in order to make an impact?
31
on somebody else's.
32
So figure this out.
33
What is stopping you?
34
And take the steps required to change it.
35
Starting today, you already have every single thing that you need in order to be successful.
36
And if you change and you improve just a little bit, every single day.
37
Success is right around the corner.

Uitspraak om op te letten
De spreker gebruikt 8 samentrekkingen en verkorte vormen, zoals you're, I'm, can't. Spreek ze kort uit, zoals je ze hoort.
- De klanken “sh” en “zh”: medication /mɛdɪˈkeɪʃən/, prescription /pɹəˈskɹɪp.ʃən/, distraction /dɪsˈtɹæk.ʃən/
- Lange woorden — let op de klemtoon: disability /dɪsəˈbɪlɪti/, medication /mɛdɪˈkeɪʃən/, identity /aɪˈdɛn(t)ɪti/
Klanken die Nederlandstaligen lastig vinden:
- Stemhebbende eindmedeklinker — /b/, /d/, /g/, /z/, /v/ niet verscherpen: solve /sɒlv/, subscribe /səbˈskɹaɪb/, excuse /ɪksˈkjuz/
- /w/ — met ronde lippen: quit /kwɪt/, quote /kwəʊt/
Zo oefen je met deze video
- Luister de hele video één keer zonder te spreken en noteer de woorden die je niet kent.
- Begin op 0,75× snelheid, spreek zin voor zin na en ga terug naar normale snelheid zodra het makkelijk gaat.
- Neem jezelf op en vergelijk met het origineel; let daarbij op woorden als solve, desk, pursue.
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.
