1
In case I don't see ya.
2
Good afternoon, good evening, and good night.
3
Now fear is going to be a player in your life.
4
But you get to decide how much.
5
You can spend your whole life imagining ghosts, worrying about the pathway to the future, but all there will ever be is what's happening here.
6
and the decisions we make in this moment, which are based in either love or fear.
7
Because life doesn't happen to you, it happens for you.
8
My father could have been a great comedian, but he didn't believe that that was possible for him.
9
And so he made a conservative choice.
10
Instead, he got a safe job as an accountant.
11
And when I was 12 years old, he was let go from that safe job.
12
And our family had to do whatever we could to survive.
13
I learned many great lessons from my father not the least of
14
which was that you can fail at what you don't want
15
so you might as well take a chance on doing what
16
you love I watched the effect of my father's love
17
and humor and how it altered the world around me
18
and I thought that's something to do that's something worth my
19
time it wasn't long before I started acting up you know people would come over to the house
20
and they'd be greeted by a seven -year -old throwing himself down a large flight of stairs.
21
They would say, what happened?
22
And I would say, I don't know.
23
Let's check the replay.
24
I'd go back to the top of the stairs and come back down in slow motion.
25
It was a very strange household.
26
My father used to brag that I wasn't a ham, I was the whole pig.
27
And he treated my talent as if it was his second chance.
28
When I was about 28, after a decade as a professional comedian,
29
I realized one night in LA that the purpose of my life had always been to free people from concern, just like my dad.
30
How will you serve the world?
31
What do they need that your talent can provide?
32
That's all you have to figure out.
33
As someone who's done what you're about to go and do, I can tell you from experience, the effect you have on others is the most valuable currency there is.
34
Because everything you gain in life will rot and fall apart, and all that will be left of you is what was in your heart.
35
My choosing to free people, my choosing to free people from concern got me to the top of a mountain.
36
Look where I am.
37
Look what I get to do.
38
To find real peace, you have to let the armor go.
39
Your need for acceptance can make you invisible in this world.
40
Don't let anything stand in the way of the light that shines through this form.
41
Risk being seen in all of your glory.
42
Now I'm always at the beginning.
43
I have a reset button, and I ride that button constantly.
44
Once that button is functioning in your life, there's no story that the mind could create that will be as compelling.
45
The imagination is always manufacturing scenarios, both good and bad, and the ego tries to keep you trapped in the multiplex of the mind.
46
Our eyes are not viewers.
47
They are also projectors.
48
that are running a second story over the picture that we see in front of us all the time.
49
Fear is writing that script and the working title is I'll Never Be Enough.
50
Are you gonna look at a person like me
51
and say how could we ever hope to reach those kind of heights, Jim?
52
How can we make a painting that's too big for our home?
53
How do you fly so high without a special breathing apparatus?
54
This is the voice of the ego.
55
And if you listen to it, there will always be someone who is doing better than you.
56
No matter what you gain, ego will not let you rest.
57
It will tell you that you cannot stop until you've left an indelible mark on the earth, until you've achieved immortality.
58
How tricky is this ego,
59
that it would tempt us with the promise of something we already possess? So...
60
I just want you to relax.
61
You know?
62
That's my job.
63
Relax and dream up a good life.
64
I had a substitute teacher from Ireland in the second grade
65
that told my class during morning prayer that when she wants something, anything at all, she prays for it and promises something in return, and she always gets what she wants.
66
Well, I'm sitting at the back of the classroom, you know, thinking, wow, my family can't afford a bike you know
67
so I went home and I prayed for one
68
and I promised I would recite the rosary every night in exchange broke it broke that promise
69
but two weeks later I got home from school to find a brand new Mustang bike with a banana seat
70
and easy rider handlebars yeah
71
from fool to cool my family informed me
72
that I had won the bike in a raffle
73
that a friend of mine had entered my name in without my knowledge whatsoever.
74
So that type of thing has been happening to me ever since.
75
As far as I can tell, it's just about letting the universe know what you want
76
and working toward it while letting go of how it comes to pass.
77
Your job is not to figure out how it's going to happen for you, but to open the door in your head.
78
And when the door opens in real life, just walk through it.
79
And don't worry if you miss your cue, because there's always doors opening.
80
They keep opening.
81
And when I say, life doesn't happen to you, it happens for you, I really don't know if that's true.
82
I'm just making a conscious choice to perceive challenges as something beneficial
83
so that I can deal with them in the most productive way.
84
You'll come up with your own style.
85
That's part of the fun.
86
Oh, and why not take a chance on faith as well?
87
Take a chance on faith.
88
Not religion, but faith.
89
Not hope, but faith.
90
I don't believe in hope.
91
Hope is a beggar.
92
Hope walks through the fire and faith leaps over it.
93
You are ready and able to do beautiful things in this world.
94
And after you walk through those doors today, you will only ever have two choices love or fear.
95
Choose love and don't ever let fear turn you against your playful heart.

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.
