so you can get 10 off your first month at better help hi guys my name is this
24
and welcome back to my channel okay let's get right into
25
it first things first the first thing you should look at is your influence
26
if you want to make more money how much is your influence i was reading this book about business and entrepreneurship
27
and there was basically a story about a teacher this teacher
28
was teaching a class of 25 students they were all very young kids
29
and she had made a book or like a board game for these kids
30
that they absolutely loved okay these kids were obsessed with this thing
31
and all the parents would come to this teacher
32
and be like why aren't you getting paid more money like this book this board game is
33
so amazing you should get paid more
34
and then she was like i don't know like you know
35
i'm only earning two two thousand dollars a month like i don't know
36
but then she understood the importance of influence so that's
37
when she started to take this book or board game worldwide
38
so now she started selling this for millions of kids
39
so that's when she also started to make millions
40
if you want to see how much money you can make you have to sell to more people
41
because that's how much money you will make okay so
42
if you look at for example artists
43
that write music people hundreds of millions of people play their songs okay that's why they are also multi-millionaires
44
if you look at my influence i have over 10 million people
45
that follow me on all my platforms combined i should have been by now a multi-millionaire
46
but in the beginning of my career i chose to not work with any brands to not do anything
47
and i change that up right now
48
because this is also not fair to me i cannot give to people
49
and not receive because that's not how the universal law works you must receive
50
when you give because otherwise you will always be left depleted
51
and you will never ever grow it's not a good thing
52
if you look at doctors
53
if you look at all these people how many people do
54
they operate in a day 10 people obviously they get paid for those type of people now
55
if you go worldwide like even authors people
56
that sell books comedians they affect millions of people even influencer
57
affects millions of people their entertainment for millions of people that's
58
why these people become millionaires next thing you should think about is how is what you are selling
59
or what you're doing helping people
60
or how are you delivering a service see in this world you only become wealthy by helping others
61
because we're all one we're all created to help each other
62
so anything that you have in life even
63
if it's clothes right the things i'm wearing right now this helps me
64
because because i can cover myself up i can wear that something
65
that i like makeup it helps you um you can put
66
it on a lot of people feel more confident with makeup
67
all these things it's all these products help people my videos it's giving advice it's motivational I'm helping people.
68
If you look at comedians, they make people laugh.
69
They put people in high vibrational state.
70
They're also helping people.
71
Every single person, Twitch streamers, football players, everyone, they're delivering an entertainment.
72
They're making people feel less lonely.
73
They're pulling people out of their problems on a daily basis.
74
People that sell kitchenware that help them because now you have a mug to drink out of.
75
Start thinking, how can I help people?
76
If your goal is to, I just want to become rich, for me, you will never ever become rich.
77
The only way you become rich is through other people.
78
And for other people to give you their money, you have to deliver a service.
79
You have to help them in some way.
80
In some way, you have to make their life easier.
81
The next thing you should address is, do you have negative thoughts about money?
82
See, you might say, no, I don't.
83
I'm obsessed with money, whatever.
84
I was always obsessed with money ever since I was young.
85
But I did have negative thoughts because when the moment came
86
that I did have a big platform and where I could monetize off, I couldn't do it because I was really scared and I somehow in my head thought like,
87
no, I don't really want to accept the money and all these things.
88
And people are even afraid of having a lot of money because if I think, for example, tomorrow I will get a hundred million dollars, right?
89
If I, that scares me.
90
I don't want that hundred million.
91
Why do I not want that?
92
Because I'm afraid that I will lose my passion for my work.
93
I'm afraid that I will not hustle as much anymore because this is what makes me happy.
94
It's a hustling, it's a passion that I have.
95
But imagine tomorrow I just receive 100 million, I will feel like, ah, maybe I don't need to do this anymore.
96
Like I'm not obligated to do this.
97
But right now I know that I received my money from this, but also there's a passion there.
98
I'm growing and it's not just in one goal
99
if you have your negative thoughts about money
100
or you think people with money are evil
101
or uh like money is a bad thing this and
102
that address that at first hand
103
because you can never attract money whilst being angry at it
104
or whilst whilst demonizing it you shouldn't demonize it also the the religious people
105
that say like oh we're not meant to be happy on this earth money is a demon this
106
and that no you are the demon okay but once you start understanding
107
that the devil you're trying to blame is you is
108
when your life will start to change see the thing is
109
we all want to demonize money we all want to do all these things
110
but you know what actually happens it just amplifies who you are
111
if you're not a good person right now with more money you will also not be a good person
112
and you will be even worse but
113
if you're actually a good person for example me i always generous even
114
if i had two dollars left in my pocket i would give
115
that two dollars to my brother even though i wanted to
116
buy something for myself i was very generous well now
117
that i have all this money i'm even more generous again
118
i spend more on other people than i spent on myself it just amplifies who you are
119
so if you think
120
that money is a demon maybe you are the demon maybe you should realize maybe i'm what's wrong
121
and it's not about the money money is just a tool
122
to amplify who you really are you combat this uh these thoughts
123
and ideas because these can also come from your parents you know your parents taught you
124
that money is not good oh people money are bad blah
125
blah they will use you whatever listen broke people will use you more than anyone else okay 100% anyways so
126
if you have these thoughts then rewire your mind i even
127
have a money meditation affirmation on my channel you can click on
128
that you can look at other ones you can repeat to
129
yourself money loves me i love money i deserve to have
130
money i deserve to be wealthy you have to start realizing
131
you deserve this struggle is not cool struggle is not something
132
that you should strive for not in love not in friendships
133
not in money stop thinking this way the wealthy don't think
134
that way they make the poor think that way
135
so they keep being poor another thing is do not try
136
to look rich actually be rich i feel like in the beginning
137
when you don't really have money a lot of people
138
and influence what they do is they try to portray this image of wealth
139
but if you look at actual wealthy people they don't dress
140
that way they always say like these luxury brands
141
and all these things it's who do they sell to to the poor okay all the people
142
that are insecure
143
and trying to validate themselves these things shouldn't validate you you
144
should validate you you can walk out tomorrow looking homeless
145
and still feel good about yourself that's how how strong
146
and how confident you should be also a lot of people
147
they go broke trying to look rich it's hard to stay rich
148
because right now your lifestyle goes up
149
so before maybe you you weren't really paying rent you were living with your parents
150
but now you live in an apartment that costs ten thousand dollars a month
151
so you kind of feel like you're still in the same position you were before
152
because your expenses go up and in a lot of ways
153
that for celebrities it goes up so high
154
because they have to pay their assistant their manager their blah blah blah
155
and it's so much that they go broke
156
because they're trying to sustain a lifestyle that is unsustainable
157
because it's easy to get the money but what
158
if you lose your credibility what if you're not famous anymore tomorrow
159
or what if you get an injury and you can't be a footballer anymore or you can't
160
play your sport anymore what will you do because now you have all these expenses
161
think about be actually rich
162
and don't try to look rich in order to impress people another thing is asset versus liability
163
so in life you have to think like this okay
164
when you buy something is this thing gonna give me a bigger return
165
or am i just losing money if you're just let's say
166
if you're buying a car you bought a luxury car
167
but then you think like how can i make money off of this car
168
that I bought so that I can keep having money instead of just buying it
169
and drainage of money from me okay
170
so then you can think okay I can rent out this
171
car uh people can pay me for renting my car
172
or I buy a big ass house I can make it into an Airbnb I rent out some room
173
so that I get returns from this house
174
or I put a down payment for an apartment um then
175
I just make like pennants move into it i get money from
176
that every month think like that because those are our assets those are things
177
that you bought that money is returning from
178
or you get even more money from okay but liabilities are things
179
that you just buy
180
and you don't get anything from it anymore like for example
181
a lot of luxury bags they will never go up in value they're just there in your closet
182
and they will rot away you will not get anything from it but if you buy for example a Birkin, a Birkin goes up in value.
183
So if you resell it, the resale price is higher.
184
So you can sell it for more.
185
Okay.
186
It's very hard to get a Birkin from a store.
187
If you do get it, you can sell it for more.
188
Try to minimize your liabilities and maximize your assets.
189
So the things that you're actually getting money from, that where money is constantly returning to you instead of just draining it out of your pocket with liabilities.
190
So for my spoiled queens, girlies, to you guys, I would say if you are dating a guy
191
and you're not working yourself and he's just providing for everything make sure
192
that either he invests in a business for you make sure
193
that the money he gives you either it's cash
194
or he transfers it into your account and make sure
195
that you buy stuff
196
that is like an investment okay do not trust a man
197
listen my even my ex he used to just give me a credit card
198
and when we broke up he took his credit card everything
199
and then what did i have in my account was just my own money
200
and i had the bags he bought for me and the jewelry
201
but that was it you know i did not have any money
202
that he gave me now what
203
if i did not have my career what would i have
204
done i would have been broke okay i was lucky
205
that i have a career but there is many men
206
and i've heard many many stories like this where they just take away the credit card take away the house
207
and honey you go, you go with your bags, whatever do not do this be very very smart men are not stupid they know
208
that they still keep the power by just giving you a credit card
209
and that's it
210
and you think i'm not a credit card no no he's control he's trying to control the narrative
211
so you switch that up and you make sure
212
that you invest in a business you invest in some things
213
in to yourself even uh look twice you can invest whatever
214
you do like get your teeth done whatever you do
215
so make sure
216
that like anything you buy you think of it as an investment um all these things
217
when you get a car make sure it's in your name
218
these things they always take away do not think men don't do this even
219
if you have a kid even
220
if they don't care they do not care whether you're married
221
when you sign that print up planning you're done you you walk away nothing okay
222
so if you want to live off of men
223
which i do not recommend by the way i should oh
224
i always think a man woman should have her own money
225
and then she can also live off of a man at the same time
226
but her money is her money think smart do not trust these people
227
because they will claim they love you
228
but tomorrow you're walking on the street just holding your chanel
229
bags okay another thing is investing your money in the stock market
230
so i do this i actually do this to someone else
231
i pay them like 10 of what i make uh they invest for me
232
because i don't really understand it and it's not really about crypto
233
and bitcoin and all these things
234
because these things are also very volatile is more uh investing in the actual economy
235
so if the economy goes up in a year let's say like a lot then maybe i can make
236
if i put 100 000 into the stock market i can make 30 off of
237
that 100 000 okay um then like
238
if it goes up only a little bit then i can
239
make 10 to 15 now maybe that's not a lot it's
240
like 10 to 15 000 in a year whatever that's not a lot
241
but that's more than it just sitting in my account
242
and doing nothing and the same way
243
if you put it in a savings account
244
that money you can make like uh let's say four thousand
245
in a year of hundred thousand like four percent like it goes up just
246
because it's in your savings account think about these things money can make money just by sitting somewhere
247
and growing you just hold it long term in that position
248
and it can grow not crazy a lot you know um you'll you'll not become a millionaire overnight
249
but still it grows another thing is you have to love what you do
250
or what you sell see my videos i watch my own videos i think my own videos are amazing
251
and when i feel down i watch myself
252
because i truly think i'm a gem an icon that's what i think okay
253
so i love what i do i wake up i can't
254
wait to make a video like i can't wait to even
255
get knowledge for the videos i live for this okay the same way If you're going to sell something, if you're going to sell a product,
256
make sure you love that product because that's the way you sell with conviction.
257
You cannot put something out there that you don't even love and try to sell it and try to be like, oh, this is amazing.
258
When everyone knows you don't even think that's amazing.
259
And that's the energy you're also giving out with your product.
260
So whatever you do, make sure that you believe in it.
261
Honey, be ready to work.
262
You want to become wealthy?
263
you want to become a millionaire whatever you will have to
264
work you will almost have to give away your whole life just to work okay it's i saw this quote
265
and said it's almost like turning a nine to five into a 24 7 100 true the last three years
266
that i've been doing my youtube all my content
267
and stuff i don't know the last time that i've relaxed not
268
when i was on vacation not anywhere the whole time content content
269
if i read a book okay i have to read this book i have to write down
270
because this can help my followers
271
if i see a documentary okay i have to write down
272
because this can help my followers it's almost like i live for my followers
273
and this is very honestly sometimes i get very drained
274
and almost like a burnout from this at the same time i live for this
275
so you have to be ready to give your life for whatever you want if you
276
if you want to become very successful you have to give your life for it i knew people
277
that owned restaurants every day they were at their restaurants for 30 years already every single day showing up and working
278
as if they're still not there yet same thing with men
279
that are wealthy that run their own businesses
280
if you've ever dated one you will see they almost never
281
have time to talk to you they're constantly on their phone
282
working same thing with athletes uh basketball players football players all
283
these things yes they might go to the club sometimes
284
but most of the time they're training working watching their food they give their life for this
285
if you want to make a lot of money be prepared to give away a lot of your life
286
and a lot of your relationships as well
287
because this is hard issue is as well you're not relying on a stable income every month honey
288
if you don't work there is no money so it's all on you
289
so the pressure is very very high
290
if you don't take care of yourself as an athlete
291
and something happens to you you're done as well you know
292
the money goes other thing is do not make the product
293
that you're selling revolve around you and especially this is for influencers
294
and celebrities because the issue with this is when you do
295
that product success will depend on you so
296
if you go down in popularity
297
so does your product what the best thing to do is to create a product that's separate from you
298
so not really include your name just make a different product
299
that even when you go down in your popularity
300
that your product can still stay up as an individual entity
301
because i see a lot of celebrities once they have a whole business it starts to fail
302
because when people start to dislike them they start to boycott their business as well
303
So that's why make sure that you create a business that's not attached to you that much.
304
That you can be like, okay, it's separate from me.
305
And that delivers a service on its own to the people.
306
Another thing is be generous but have your limits.
307
See, I really believe in life.
308
What you give is what you get back.
309
So I'm a very generous person and especially to women.
310
I will die on this hill.
311
I 100% believe the more you give to a woman, the more you receive it's almost like you're giving an offering to the divine feminine.
312
Anyone, a man or woman, that takes care of a woman gets blessed.
313
I believe this 100%.
314
The most successful men, the most wealthiest men, always are taking care of women because they know this.
315
Okay.
316
I, from the beginning of my career, the first money I ever made, I gave all to my mom.
317
Like I was all into my mom.
318
Every month I give her money.
319
I paid off her half and every small thing.
320
I bought cars and everything.
321
Okay.
322
Now there's a limit.
323
People that are overly generous like me okay they never get respected though you never ever get respected why
324
because your love is unconditional you do things for people
325
and i don't even care if they think it's from me
326
or not i don't need
327
that validation i don't even need a thank you i will just do it for you
328
because i love you
329
and i want to see you happy okay however people like me get used
330
and there's a lot of people that want to use people for money.
331
When another person, they don't do anything, they just come and people seek their validation, seek their respect because they don't give it to you.
332
They don't give you anything, okay?
333
But people like me who give you everything and unconditional, it's almost like, oh, we know Liz will be there anyways.
334
Oh, we know Liz will forgive us anyways.
335
So they abuse you for that.
336
You feel used.
337
You never feel appreciated because they don't.
338
They don't.
339
So stop when you see that you're being used for your money
340
when you see that you're being overly generous that will become self-destructive
341
because again you're giving more than you're receiving you will never
342
feel good about yourself then never ever life works in this way you need to give
343
but you also need to receive
344
things do not overspend on things you don't need okay this
345
is also goes back to again don't try to look rich
346
i see a lot of people they try to like buy all of these things to fit in
347
or they they buy things that they can't even afford you can't afford
348
that why are you buying it for who for who you're
349
trying to play a game with actual wealthy people not fit
350
in with them these people have mega yachts private jets it constantly is up
351
and up and you will never win this game
352
because you're just not at that level
353
and accept it it's okay to not be at that level okay don't try to overspend
354
and self-sabotage yourself to be validated by people who will never validate you never even for people
355
that have less money than you you will not be cool
356
or good enough and for the ones
357
that have more you will not be cool
358
and good enough also a thing
359
that i would love to add is you have to have a plan
360
so i see a lot of people they go completely after their passions
361
and everything but they don't really have a plan b
362
and i see a lot of people making money of encouraging people to do
363
that but i don't think this is smart
364
because actors models um influencers youtubers
365
that really make it it's only a very few don't pursue your college degree anymore
366
if you don't live you don't live at your parents have
367
or you don't have a partner that has stability and money
368
that you can still rely on
369
if your whatever doesn't work out you're gonna be in big
370
trouble that's why you see a lot of people they go to la
371
and they think like oh my god i'm gonna make it right now
372
but then they get there and they realize how hard it is
373
and they become homeless so please do not do
374
that do not just stop everything stop the job
375
that you have just to pursue a passion
376
because it's very very hard to actually make it i mean i hope you do
377
and i'm all for following your dreams and your passions
378
but i think we also should be realistic here
379
because i feel like we only get to see the one percent of people
380
that actually make it and we don't see the hundreds of thousands of people
381
that tried and didn't make it last
382
but not least is do not be desperate period do not
383
be desperate like i said in my other videos desperation worst
384
energy ever it comes from lack it comes from fear okay
385
same thing for money my whole life i was desperate for money i don't want money
386

What is the Shadowing Technique?

Shadowing is a science-backed language learning technique originally developed for professional interpreter training and popularized by polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. The method is simple but powerful: you listen to native English audio and immediately repeat it out loud — like a shadow following the speaker with just a 1–2 second delay. Unlike passive listening or grammar drills, shadowing forces your brain and mouth muscles to simultaneously process and reproduce real speech patterns. Research shows it significantly improves pronunciation accuracy, intonation, rhythm, connected speech, listening comprehension, and speaking fluency — making it one of the most effective methods for IELTS Speaking preparation and real-world English communication.
