1
You know, success means different things for different people, right?
2
For some it might be getting the job they've always wanted, for others it could be running your own business,
3
for some more it could be just living a simple yet happy life, while others enjoy the intricacies and challenges the world presents.
4
To put it simply, success means turning your desires into reality.
5
Most people get it wrong though, success isn't a destination.
6
You don't set your goal on becoming successful, instead, you become really good at something and as a result, in the eyes of others,
7
you will be seen as successful.
8
Really, success is like a benefit of winning the game that you're playing.
9
So with this made clear, here's our take on the 15 rules of success.
10
Welcome to ALUX, the place where future billionaires come to get inspired.
11
Number 1.
12
Have a vision and a plan, or all you'll be left with are dreams.
13
People who don't know where they want to go, they get swept up by the current and their lives are no longer theirs.
14
Other people will choose for you, who you are, what you do, what you like, whom you marry,
15
what you do with your spare time, and more.
16
Until there's nothing left of the person you once thought you were.
17
If you want to be successful, you need a North Star.
18
You have to have a target, a clear goal, on which all of your efforts are focused.
19
Now this point can be expanded to, you miss every opportunity you don't go for.
20
So here's why this rule is so important.
21
In almost all cases, even if you don't get the answer you wanted, the default result is your current state.
22
You're not losing anything but a bit of time, and considering your current reality, you've cut plenty of that.
23
In gambling terms, this is a free roll, which translates to although there's a small chance you get it, there's no downside in trying.
24
Now here's the real secret behind this, okay?
25
It's a numbers game.
26
When we were starting out, everybody told us it's unlikely we'll make it because 9 out of 10 businesses fail.
27
Our answer was simple, we'll just build 10 businesses.
28
It didn't take 10 times, but what became Alux was our fourth try.
29
You only need to get it right once and your entire life changes.
30
Number 3.
31
80 % done and delivered now is better than 100 % perfect but never released.
32
We're all perfectionists, right?
33
Which is why not that much gets done.
34
People obsess about the littlest of things and get stuck in the process to the point where they abandon the entire effort.
35
The world is better off with little value put forward than it is without any of it.
36
Your job is to get the value out as soon as possible.
37
This teaches you more about the world, about yourself, than anything else.
38
Take our Sunday motivational video for example.
39
We could have easily spent another full month working on this video alone, doing more animations, polishing the graphics,
40
but 80 % of that value lies in the information.
41
The presentation is good enough for you to get the value, everything else is just decoration.
42
Now don't get us wrong, decoration is fun, awesome, But people want the cake, not the candles you put on top.
43
If you want to be successful, you have to stop self -sabotaging.
44
It'll never be perfect.
45
Get it out, and then build on top of what the feedback is.
46
In the tech space, this is called a minimum viable product or MVP.
47
It's the first generation, bare bones version that's good enough for people to use.
48
And good enough when you need it, is always better than perfect, but too late.
49
Number 4.
50
The time will pass anyway, so you might as well use it.
51
Everybody thinks they've got time, so they can afford to waste some of it.
52
But reality hits you hard when you realize time is picking up speed as you progress in life.
53
Can you believe how far into the year we already are?
54
What about how quickly the past 10 years have gone by?
55
Time will pass anyway, so 5 years from now, you might as well have your degree, your business, or your career, okay?
56
The choices you're making right now determine where you'll be 10 years from now.
57
If you want to be successful later on, make the choices today that will allow you to get there in the future.
58
Number 5.
59
Nobody's coming to save you, you have to save yourself.
60
If you want to be successful, sorry to break it to you, but you can't escape the hard work requirement.
61
As much as you're trying to play the game to find the shortcuts,
62
at some point, you'll find yourself before the track and you'll have to run that race yourself.
63
You're smart.
64
You probably think you can find a cheat code to winning this with less effort than anyone else.
65
Well, you found it, okay?
66
This list right here is all the value that we've managed to find in our own race and bring it all together.
67
We're serving you the best of the best on a silver platter and even here, hard work is still on the menu.
68
People will help to motivate you.
69
Some will cheer for you, some will help you overcome obstacles along your journey, but this is your journey, they've got their own.
70
If you've chosen to swim in the deep waters of uncertainty,
71
risk and reward, you better start swimming because there's no guarantee a lifeguard is going to show up in time.
72
Take ownership of your present and the future.
73
This is one of the first lessons we realized when we began meditating.
74
The fact that we are so much in control of our destiny, that it's great to have valuable people around you,
75
but unless you're solid on your own feet, you're unlikely to break through to the next level.
76
And we distilled this type of mindset and realization in our Mind Mastery Premium Experience, available for purchase at alux .org.
77
It's a 21 -day challenge where you learn the valuable skills of meditation
78
and how to use your mind to come up with creative solutions to problems that you're facing in your daily life.
79
We know that 250 bucks is a lot for some of you, but a single idea from that course can grow into millions.
80
So if you go to alux .org and use the code ALUXER at checkout,
81
you'll get 25 % off the course as a gift from us to you.
82
We'll see you in there.
83
Number 6.
84
Be grateful for what you have, but you should always want more.
85
This is something that people have said to us, you've done so much, you've got enough, you should take a break.
86
Not once, but we've heard this numerous times.
87
So here's the thing about that though.
88
There's no limit to how much good you can do.
89
The more you work, the more opportunities to help you have.
90
Why would you take a break when you're winning
91
and your work is helping you and those around you to live a better life?
92
People grow up with this mindset of limited resources.
93
Like, the pie is finite.
94
For them, if you take two slices of pie, then there isn't much left for anyone else.
95
What these people don't understand is that there is no pie initially.
96
I baked it myself, okay?
97
I know how to bake pies.
98
Actually, I've been making more than one pie and are giving these out to other people.
99
So how about you just let me eat this slice of pie in peace, Karen?
100
Live life appreciating what you have.
101
Be grateful for the good life that you're living right now.
102
Although it might not feel like it, it can always get worse, okay?
103
So be grateful.
104
But it's more than okay to want to get to the next level, to want to experience more than your current reality.
105
There are levels to the things that you can do in life, how many people you can help and the impact you can have.
106
Your job now is to figure out how far you can get in this game.
107
You want to be successful, to be grateful for what you have, but to play the game the best way you can.
108
So what's your high score Aluxer?
109
Number 7.
110
Success comes as a result of putting order into chaos.
111
If you're living in chaos, the likelihood of success is left to chance and by now, we both know that luck is not a strategy.
112
Every successful individual has become successful by putting order to chaos.
113
That's what solving problems is actually.
114
Problems are chaotic so
115
So what you have to do is to find some chaos and put some order to it.
116
This entire piece is about the rules of success and what you can do today to increase your chances of success tomorrow.
117
How chaotic is your life right now?
118
Take a look around you.
119
How clean is your room?
120
What about your house?
121
Your car?
122
How clear are your goals?
123
How orderly is your life?
124
The mind cannot focus in a chaotic environment because it's distracted by all the noise.
125
You want to put order in your life?
126
Start small.
127
Clean your room, make your bed, empty your phone, create a to -do list for everything that's been stressing you out,
128
and know that you should be getting done.
129
The to -do list is the first step toward bringing some order to your chaos.
130
Then, do the things you write on that list, do them for real.
131
Once you're done, you won't believe how powerful you'll feel.
132
You'll just have taken control of your life.
133
This notion of order in chaos will spread throughout your entire life.
134
Keep your word.
135
Be on time.
136
This drops down the level of chaos into a predictable order.
137
Nobody likes people who are bringing their chaos into other people's lives, so try not to be one of them.
138
You want to be successful?
139
Put order to your chaos.
140
Number 8.
141
Hardships are life's way of testing how badly you want it.
142
Sometimes life throws some big roadblocks your way.
143
To keep up with the previous metaphor, think of them very much like a boss fight in video games.
144
When things get hard, life is testing you to see what you're made of and if you're ready for growth or not.
145
The fact that you've come this far and are now facing this should tell you that you're on the right path.
146
Hardships are just opportunities for you to evolve.
147
It's hard because you're not strong enough, not ready enough to overcome it yet, but that's exactly why you need to face it.
148
In the process of overcoming it, it'll force you to grow, to be more than what you currently are.
149
Hardships are a part of everyone's journey, but here's how we think about them.
150
Every time you encounter a problem, life is testing you if you're worthy of what's beyond it.
151
Most people will not be able to overcome it, so they won't get the prize.
152
This is what they mean when they say 9 out of 10 businesses will fail.
153
That one that survives is the one worthy of the prize.
154
Never be phased by obstacles, hardships or uncomfortable problems that you have to solve because once you do, you'll have proven yourself worthy.
155
You want to be successful, so overcome the problems ahead of you.
156
Number 9.
157
Wake Up With Purpose An important rule of success has to do with your mornings and the way you organize your day.
158
People of purpose usually wake up early.
159
Why?
160
Why?
161
Because they need more time to do the things that they know will push the needle further.
162
The moment you begin waking up with purpose, with a clear and actionable goal in mind, you're no longer lingering through life,
163
you have a purpose here.
164
Not a wish, not a dream, a purpose.
165
I woke up today to get this done and I will not go to bed until I do it.
166
How many of you have no idea what to do these days?
167
How many of you feel like you lack direction in your life?
168
How many of you want someone to hold your hand and walk you toward the things you feel like you need?
169
This is because you're lacking purpose, a clear purpose defines clear steps and actions that you need to take.
170
There's no longer a confusion of what you should be doing next, you don't complain or procrastinate when you have a purpose.
171
People have survived wars, labour camps, the darkest evils, because of the purpose of seeing their family one more time.
172
And you think you can't stop watching TikTok videos?
173
Come on, you want to be successful, okay?
174
So find your purpose.
175
Number 10.
176
Monetize Your Passion Now, you've heard it in so many different ways, like, find a job and you won't ever work a day in your life.
177
Not really, okay, but despite this being one of the most well -known rules of success, a quick glance at society reveals a brutal truth.
178
Everyone who's super successful has leveraged this rule to their favor.
179
Everyone we look up to has figured out how to monetize their passion, while everyone else is crying themselves to sleep.
180
Here's where things get interesting though.
181
There are so many people in this world that, statistically speaking, somebody has already figured this out before you.
182
Even better, you probably already know them because you've naturally gravitated toward them.
183
Your passion has worked on your behalf.
184
Just study them and figure out how they've managed to monetize and slowly begin to follow in their footsteps.
185
Nobody in their right mind would keep doing this for long without a payout, unless you're having fun and passionate about what you're doing.
186
So here's the cheat sheet to monetizing anything.
187
Figure out four of these things and you are golden, okay?
188
So first of all, figure out if it's going to be a product or a service.
189
Second, figure out how much you're going to charge.
190
Third, figure out how you're going to reach people.
191
And fourth, figure out how you're going to take their money.
192
Although these four might sound like it's one thing, They require different types of expertise.
193
By the time you solve these 4 puzzles, you're already winning.
194
Number 11.
195
Find people who are walking in the same direction as you and walk together
196
A major rule of success comes from the people you associate with, because you are the average of the 5 people you surround yourself with.
197
Are they successful?
198
Because if so, you're probably successful yourself.
199
Are they losers?
200
Well guess what?
201
But… you probably are too.
202
When it comes to hunting for goals and success, it's a lot easier to hunt in packs,
203
to motivate each other, to call yourselves out on your bullshit and be there if the situation requires it.
204
There's an old African proverb that goes like this, If you want to go fast, go alone.
205
If you want to go far, go together.
206
No matter how strong you think you are, unless you build a team, surround yourself with people going the same way you are,
207
you're gonna burn out, be taken away by the current and eventually drown.
208
Nobody is really self -made.
209
We all sought help along the way and
210
if a mentor is something you want but don't have access to the right ones locally, the Alux app has you covered here.
211
We designed the app to function like a high performance coach.
212
Every day there is new sessions going live dedicated to helping you level up your financial health, physical and emotional wellness, strengthening your relationships,
213
your mind and your body.
214
All of your bases are covered for a small fraction of what an actual professional coach would cost.
215
Even better, we hire industry experts, pay them their steep fees,
216
sit them down in a studio and have them teach you on camera how they got to where they are today.
217
So, if you're ready to kick your journey into a higher gear,
218
download the ALUX app, scan this QR code on screen and you'll get 25 % off the annual membership.
219
See you on the inside!
220
Number 12 Where your focus is, is where your reality follows.
221
We shouldn't be talking about the rules of success without mentioning one of the most important ones.
222
Your focus determines your destiny.
223
How do you spend your time?
224
What are you doing every day?
225
Toward what does your attention go?
226
Be honest with yourself, where is it really going?
227
That's why your reality is the way it is.
228
If you want your life to change, you first have to change yourself.
229
For some reason, people want change without making any changes.
230
How's that supposed to work?
231
You've probably heard of the definition of insanity as doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.
232
Are you getting the results you want?
233
If yes, good, great, okay, keep doing what you're doing.
234
But if you're not, you better re -evaluate yourself because your future is just around the corner and you, my friend, are not ready for it.
235
If you want to be successful, learn how to focus your efforts in the right direction.
236
Number 13.
237
For your life to be more than what it is, you need to be more than what you are.
238
Now, we wanted to expand on the previous point because it's crucial to your future.
239
We're not going to sugarcoat it for you.
240
There are tiers to life.
241
There are experiences, places, people, events which you will never have access to with your current condition.
242
Everyone wants to date a supermodel, but nobody wants to work hard enough to be in the position to date a supermodel.
243
Everybody wants their partner to be amazing at everything, but they themselves are mediocre at best.
244
Everyone wants to create incredible memories, but very few are willing to put in the effort to get there.
245
The more you develop personally, the more doors open for you.
246
Guess what?
247
Behind those doors, there are other rooms you don't even know exist right now.
248
Life has this strange way of giving us what we want, but people never ask for more.
249
This is what is meant when people say, invest in yourself.
250
Use your time, money and resources to develop, to grow, to experiment, to learn to become more than what you are.
251
You first put in the work and then the awards will follow, it's not the other way around.
252
Number 14.
253
Success is the result of managing existing resources efficiently.
254
Here's the truth, life is a strategy game.
255
You get a limited amount of resources to start.
256
You've got some time, a little bit of money and just a few tools at your disposal.
257
You're consuming this on a device so you might have more than you think you do.
258
You have to make some choices.
259
Where should your resources go?
260
Now, before you rub the cheeto dust off your fingers
261
and start ranting about people being born rich and how unfair life is,
262
just know there are people out there who started with way less than what you did
263
and by your age have achieved way more.
264
So check yourself, okay?
265
Everybody has their own pace, but everybody gets handed a different starting hand.
266
Maybe you got lucky and you were born into a decent family with decent opportunities at your doorstep, but maybe you didn't.
267
Maybe life was hard for you in the beginning and maybe it still is.
268
But you can give up or play the game because you're already in it, okay?
269
You're smart.
270
Look around you.
271
You paid with money and time to purchase these things you're surrounded by.
272
So ask yourself, how can I use these things to get myself more money and more time?
273
Your problem isn't that you don't have the best resources.
274
No, it's that you're too lazy to use the resources that you already have.
275
Number 15.
276
Success Is The Sum Of Small Actions Repeated Daily Becoming successful is fairly easy.
277
You do the things that you need to do every single day until you get there.
278
The hard part comes from lacking consistency.
279
It's fairly easy to get in shape.
280
The hard part is ignoring the cake for a couple of months.
281
What's the one thing that if If you did it every day for 1000 days, that would definitely get you there.
282
Don't rush it, because this is important, once you find that thing, do it and don't stop.
283
1000 day challenge to win at life.
284
Are you in or nah?
285
If you want to be successful, you have to know the rules of success and you just went through all of them,
286
which raises the question, which one clicked with you the most?
287
We're super interested in knowing which ones sparked an idea in your mind, so let us know in the comments.
288
And as a thank you for watching this video until the very end, because you're a real Aluxer you're getting a bonus.
289
And that bonus is simple, but beautiful.
290
Be kind, okay?
291
Be kind, consistently, actually make an effort to be kind and give back.
292
This is one of the biggest mysteries in our life.
293
Call it karma, call it the universe, call it the law of attraction, call it whatever you like, okay?
294
But every time we gave to someone else, it came back to us tenfold.
295
We're not even joking, okay, people say charity should be done in silence, but for the past 10 years,
296
we've provided food for the elderly or those less fortunate.
297
We've donated over 50 % of our clothing.
298
donated money.
299
During the pandemic, we provided bags of everything that grandmas and grandpas would possibly need to every set we knew, even if they weren't our own,
300
so that they didn't have to go buy supplies, groceries, and food themselves.
301
Honestly, we've also been doing it for selfish reasons too, because it makes us feel really good to give back to others.
302
It's like a high you get when you're doing good, it's almost addictive.
303
And maybe you don't have enough to give, or you're not feeling generous, and that's That's ok as well,
304
there are other things you can do to give back.
305
It costs NOTHING to not be an asshole.
306
Here's a golden nugget.
307
A couple of years ago we made up a concept called the kindness arbitrage
308
that to this day is a very active part of our lives.
309
A kindness arbitrage is when it costs you a little but you're getting a big result for somebody else.
310
We've mentioned grandmas, or your parents for that matter.
311
A 15 minute phone call with your grandma is costing you 15 minutes.
312
But you're gonna make her weak because she hasn't heard from you in so long.
313
$200 for us is honestly not that much money,
314
but for a family that's been struggling to provide food or toys for their children during the holidays, $200 is a game changer.
315
There are little acts of kindness that go a long way and the trade is always worth it.
316
Just look at the way you live, you're blessed to have so much it almost feels weird.
317
If you've made it this far, we're so proud of you.
318
We're sure this last point got you thinking about how to use this kindness arbitrage in your life.
319
And we promise you that even if it doesn't come back to you in material form, it will absolutely be worth it.
320
Mix it with the rules of success that we mentioned in this list and you'll have everything you need.
321
When answering today's question, make sure to write ROS in the comments.
322
It stands for Rules of Success, and that way we know you've gotten all the way through them to number 16.
323
You didn't just skim through this list.
324
You were dedicated, and we love that about you.
325
We'll see you back here next time, Aluxer.
326
Until then, take care, my friend.

O falante usa 118 contrações e formas reduzidas, como you're, don't, you've. Diga-as na forma curta, do jeito que você ouve.
- Os sons de “th”: worthy /ˈwɝ.ði/, clothing /ˈkloʊðɪŋ/, strengthen /ˈstɹɛŋ(k)θən/, theirs /ðɛɚz/
- Os sons de “sh” e “zh”: hardship /ˈhɑɹdˌʃɪp/, passion /ˈpæʃən/, decoration /ˌdɛkəˈɹeɪʃən/, rush /ɹʌʃ/, ownership /ˈoʊnɚʃɪp/
- Palavras longas — acerte a sílaba tônica: decoration /ˌdɛkəˈɹeɪʃən/, naturally /ˈnæt͡ʃ.(ə.)ɹə.li/, associate /əˈsoʊʃi.ət/, experiment /ɪkˈspɛɹ.ə.mənt/, consistently /kənˈsɪstəntli/

O que é a Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing é uma técnica de aprendizado de idiomas com base científica, originalmente desenvolvida para o treinamento de intérpretes profissionais. O método é simples, mas poderoso: você ouve áudio em inglês nativo e repete imediatamente em voz alta — como uma sombra seguindo o falante com 1-2 segundos de atraso. Pesquisas mostram melhora significativa na precisão da pronúncia, entonação, ritmo, sons conectados, compreensão auditiva e fluência na fala.
