1
It's actually very interesting, the masculine experience, because I like to believe that most men on the planet have lived a semi -similar timeline.
2
All of us as men experience a very similar human paradigm, and that is that most men are born and you're not important,
3
and then you go to school and you fall in love with some girl in school and she fucks someone else,
4
and then you realize that all the 19 year olds you want
5
when you're 19 are with older dudes because they have cars or whatever, whatever.
6
And you go through this experience of getting your heart broken and losing your girlfriend, et cetera, et cetera.
7
And many men latch on to some average bitch or accept they're going to have their heart broken forever.
8
But some men decide to become so big and important and strong and irreplaceable.
9
They never have to suffer heartbreak again because every man deals with heartbreak and deals with sadness.
10
But how you use that energy is the differentiation, the differentiator between humans, right?
11
You are feeling the same pain that many men have felt.
12
Every man out there has had his heart broken and understands how difficult it is as a man. But
13
the difference between me and you
14
and perhaps some of the other men out there is
15
that certain men take that anguish and take that sadness and understand that energy cannot be destroyed.
16
It can only be converted
17
and use it to build themselves into a man of absolute standing
18
and power as opposed to sitting around jerking off like you just told me you do.
19
You are a waste.
20
You are wasting your energy.
21
Heartbreak is unlimited motivation.
22
If I was heartbroken, it's been a very long time, but if I was heartbroken, I'd be in the gym every morning.
23
I'd be a beast.
24
I'd be running.
25
I'd be working.
26
I couldn't sleep.
27
I'd be an absolute animal
28
and you're heartbroken what are you doing jerking off like a fucking dumbass the difference is as a man
29
you must build yourself into a man of credibility
30
which means to build yourself into a man of standing
31
we all start in a very fairly similar position
32
i became me through tedious arduous difficult never -ending work
33
you are wasting your time you know why god made your girl leave you
34
because he wanted to show you that you ain't he wanted to show you
35
that you are human and you're fallible and that
36
You're very replaceable.
37
So he decided to make you fall in love with a girl,
38
and he decided to make her leave you to show you that you are a dickhead.
39
Now, it is your job to look at the board, understand what's happened, say, I understand, God.
40
I deserve that.
41
I'm glad she left me, and I'm sad because I am a dickhead.
42
And do something about it, because if you refuse, if you ignore God's message, next time you fall in love with a bitch,
43
guess what he's gonna do?
44
He's gonna make her leave you to remind you once again that you are a dickhead.
45
Every single man out here, if you're upset that your girl's leaving you, God is reminding you that you aren't worth shit.
46
You need to get up and work so hard that even in the eyes of God, he is proud of you.
47
God loves his creations which show him their true potential and beauty.
48
By getting up and trying your absolute best and becoming a man of moral standing, he will reward you and bless you.
49
If you continue to be a dickhead, God will remind you you're a dickhead.
50
So God just broke your heart on purpose to show you
51
that the way you're living your life and the man you are simply are not good enough.
52
What have you changed since?
53
Nothing.
54
Fucking nothing.
55
You think God's gonna forgive you for no reason?
56
You think God's gonna go, it's fine.
57
He hasn't learned his lesson.
58
He hasn't changed.
59
He isn't even trying very hard.
60
He's not up early in the gym.
61
He ain't doing nothing.
62
It's fine.
63
Let's just let him fall in love and let's make sure the girl doesn't fuck someone else on OnlyFans this time.
64
No, sir!
65
This is gonna repeat endlessly.
66
It's a cycle that will not fucking change until you take the message from God
67
and become the man you're supposed to be.
68
You must stop being a dickhead.
69
You deserve what's happened to you.
70
You deserve how you feel.
71
All of it.
72
When I was 20, me and my girlfriend broke up.
73
I was with her for four years.
74
I couldn't sleep.
75
I couldn't.
76
And this is before social media.
77
You couldn't just chase a bitch.
78
Like, that was it.
79
She's gone now.
80
She moved.
81
I didn't know where she lived.
82
That was it.
83
And I couldn't sleep.
84
Now, it wasn't like I was crying my eyes out, but I was just, where's my hoe at?
85
I couldn't sleep.
86
Need something else to do.
87
Need something else to do.
88
So I thought, fuck, I'll hit the gym at 6 a .m., hit the gym at 3 p .m., hit the gym at 8 p .m.
89
I had nothing else to do but fighting.
90
So I took all that trauma all that heartbreak
91
and i molded it into becoming a world level combatant right
92
what did we talk earlier about how trauma can mold
93
you trauma can be a fantastic thing heartbreak depression sadness these are all fantastic motivators
94
i'm telling you why they're a fantastic motivator
95
you go to a guy who's heartbroken
96
he has all the motivation in the world to send 300 dex messages
97
he has the motivation he's putting it in the wrong place
98
that's 300 cold emails you can be sending to someone a bit of a lot of money
99
you could have made yeah i'll tell you right
100
now some of the greatest accomplishments in my life have come after a heartbreak.
101
Absolutely.
102
It's that fuck, I call it fuck you energy.
103
Take that and you're like, I, cause some guys will get butthurt about that and they'll sit there and they'll wallow in self pity.
104
I've always thought the correct application of that energy is, okay, prove that she made a shitty mistake.
105
Go out and become a fucking millionaire.
106
Go out and become a kickboxer.
107
Go out and become a porn star or whatever.
108
And then she's gonna look around when she's 50 pounds heavier in a year's time.
109
You're like, mother fucker.
110
I left him.
111
I let him go. And internally, my ego could be like I got ya
112
life's gonna hurt you and how you use
113
that pain is completely not really up to you you can use
114
that pain to galvanize yourself as a man
115
and become a better man you've ever been I'm not saying that I'm only successful because of some chick.
116
I'm saying that every single time that I was heartbroken, I never wasted a second.
117
I was never wallowing.
118
Especially as a young man.
119
We talked about this on the show.
120
You're going to get your heart broken as a young man.
121
I've had it happen to me.
122
We've all had it happen to us.
123
And it's not even about anger towards a girl.
124
Me and Tristan talked about this on the podcast that we did together, Gentleman Gang.
125
It's seven years later because as a man, you're going to get your value later.
126
So if you use that energy to put all that work in, these girls, they come back around and I love to see them come back.
127
Not because I'm in love again, just because it's like, You know, I told you so.
128
No, I said this like anybody who tries to get revenge on a woman.
129
Oh, on a woman.
130
It's a urine.
131
That's incel energy.
132
That's that's a wrong way of looking at it.
133
The only revenge you can get on a woman who breaks your heart is success.
134
Success is the best revenge.
135
Just level up slowly.
136
When she messages you, you got two choices.
137
You got to say, sorry, baby, not my type anymore.
138
Boom, you win.
139
So that's the answer to the question.
140
Put a plan together for the heartbreak if it comes and make sure that plan is constructed.
141
Everything we've been saying on this podcast is true.
142
Trauma is going to come.
143
Pain is going to come.
144
We have to use it.
145
Women, I didn't want to lose them and they weren't listening.
146
So I walked away and they didn't chase me.
147
I lost them. But that's.

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.
