1
There's a very good chance you've been manifesting the life that you don't want
2
and you don't even realize that you're doing it.
3
Because most people don't realize this, but they live life like life is out to get them.
4
They're waiting for the other shoe to drop.
5
They're assuming something is going to go wrong and then they call it being realistic.
6
And then they wonder why they're always anxious and exhausted and stuck in the same patterns every single year.
7
Well, your brain is literally wired right now to look for proof
8
that things are going wrong or don't work out for you.
9
But you can rewire it to be the exact opposite of that.
10
And so today, I'm going to talk to you about how acting as if everything will work out changes your brain neurologically.
11
It will shift how your brain shows you information and completely alter the direction of your life.
12
So if you're tired of negative thinking, if you're exhausted from assuming that you're going to get hurt
13
or worrying or fail or be disappointed in some sort of way, this might be the most important episode that you'll listen to all year.
14
Because once you truly understand this and you start living it, your life is never going to look the same way again.
15
And so when we talk about acting as if, most people misunderstand this phrase.
16
They think that acting as if means I need to delude myself
17
or pretend that bad things are not happening in my life.
18
And it's not that at all.
19
Acting as if everything always works out for me means that I don't deny reality.
20
I don't deny pain at all, but I choose the meaning that I give to what's happening.
21
So it's like saying, you know, I don't know how this is going to work out,
22
But I'm going to move through my life as if eventually I'm going to look back and say, oh, I can see why that's exactly what I needed.
23
Because you have to know it will work out for you.
24
It's a posture.
25
It's a way of walking through the world.
26
Think about the opposite of that for a second.
27
Acting as if nothing works out for you.
28
I've done that before in my life.
29
I'm sure you've probably done that.
30
You probably know people that are like that.
31
What happens?
32
You wake up anticipating problems.
33
You assume that people are going to disappoint you and screw you over.
34
You go into opportunities expecting rejection.
35
You talk yourself out of action before you even start.
36
And when you live like that, you're not only miserable, you're actually training your brain and your nervous system to be hypervigilant,
37
to be fearful, to be closed off.
38
You're training your brain to actively search for what is wrong or what could go wrong in your life.
39
So when I say act as if everything is working out, here's what it would actually look like practically, okay?
40
You're still going to feel fear.
41
Fear's not going to go away.
42
But the difference is you don't bow down to your fears anymore.
43
You're still going to feel uncertainty in your future, but you don't move away from uncertainty.
44
You still have many challenges in life, but then you ask yourself whenever those challenges come up, how might this be working for me and not against me?
45
It's living as if life is happening for you and not to you.
46
I have said this many times in the podcast, but I honestly believe in my life that everything is happening for me,
47
and it's happening for the best thing to happen to me in the long run.
48
And we will be right back.
49
Hey, I want to interrupt today's episode to tell you about my sponsor.
50
It is me, myself.
51
If you didn't know, I obviously have some coaching programs outside of the podcast to help you learn
52
and grow and become a better version of yourself.
53
Step-by-step programs and processes to help you become better in your life and create the life that you want.
54
If you want to learn more about it, you can go to coachwithrob.com.
55
Once again, coachwithrob.com.
56
Check it out.
57
And let's get back to the episode.
58
And I didn't always think this way.
59
I was not this way at all for a very long time.
60
And now that I'm older, I think hindsight is 20-20.
61
But now I can see everything that's happened to me in my life, especially the challenges and how they were basically brought to me for my life to be able to become better.
62
You know, I didn't choose to have an alcoholic father
63
and have my father pass away when I was 15 years old from being an alcoholic.
64
But that thing, I can see how it has changed my life completely and made my life better.
65
It was the hardest day of my life and the worst day of my life, but also the best day of my life because it woke me up.
66
Now, when I look at like my first sales job I ever had when I was 19, that was so freaking hard.
67
I was a shy kid, didn't know what I was doing.
68
And they pushed me on stage after I started getting better at sales to do public speaking.
69
I didn't want to speak to anybody.
70
But, you know, when I was in that company, I had to be out of my comfort zone all the time
71
and all the time and cold calls and talking on stage.
72
And, you know, I had to mess up
73
and I had to face embarrassment it was hard it's really
74
challenging then they started pushing me to coach people to mentor the other people
75
and I had to learn myself
76
and get myself better in order to be able to help others at a higher level
77
then I hired a one-on-one coach and he pushed me
78
and he got me into challenging myself and becoming better
79
and constantly trying to challenge myself every single day got me into reading personal development
80
and all of those things from my father to the first sales job, to public speaking, to coaching people, to hiring my first one-on-one coach,
81
all of those things, all those dots connect to what I do now.
82
Like what is my biggest passion in life, right?
83
It's imagine if I gave up when things got hard at some point in time, I wouldn't be doing what I do now.
84
So you have to know like deep down inside of you that everything is actually happening for you,
85
especially the hardest most challenging moments in your life and
86
when you really start walking like that your brain will actually literally start to change
87
and so let's talk about how walking through life as
88
if life is always happening for you and acting as
89
if let's talk about how it's going to change you neurologically
90
and how you shift
91
when you shift from worst case scenario to hey this is
92
going to work out for me you have to understand your
93
brain's a prediction mechanism it's always trying to to predict the future.
94
So your main job is to protect you through trying to predict.
95
It's going to try to predict what's about to happen, how safe or unsafe something is, what you should do next in every situation by predicting.
96
And it uses three main inputs basically.
97
Number one is your past experiences.
98
Number two is your current environment that you're in.
99
And then the third one especially is your thoughts and belief about yourself and the world.
100
So if you constantly think things never work out for me.
101
I always get screwed.
102
Of course, this would happen to me.
103
You're feeding your brain data all of the time that says, expect danger, expect loss, expect disappointment.
104
And so neurologically, what this is doing to you, your amygdala, which is your threat detection center in your brain, gets more overreactive over time.
105
So you're constantly looking for fears and threats.
106
Your prefrontal cortex, which is your rational planning, decision-making part of your brain, gets hijacked by emotion and fear.
107
And when you're in a state of fear, you're in very, very, very low logic.
108
You're not thinking very well.
109
Your prefrontal cortex stops working as well.
110
And then your nervous system starts living in chronic stress patterns.
111
So basically it's stuck in fight, flight, or freeze.
112
And so your thoughts are not harmless things.
113
They're literally training your brain and your body to expect and recreate the same emotional reality.
114
So think about that for a second.
115
You're literally training your brain with your thoughts what to expect and recreate the exact same emotional reality that you've always had.
116
Now, if you flip it and you decide to do something different and think differently, like when you really genuinely start to practice and think, this will somehow work out for me.
117
I always figure things out.
118
Like this is going to make sense for later.
119
This is happening for me.
120
You're training your brain to expect and then to actually look for solutions and support and opportunities and possibilities.
121
And so over time, your amygdala, the fear part of your brain, starts to calm down a little bit.
122
You don't perceive everything as a threat and live in a state of fear and worry.
123
Your prefrontal cortex has more access to logic and creativity and long-term thinking.
124
And then your nervous system starts to spend more time in a regulated state, which means clearer thinking, and better decisions.
125
And so you're literally becoming a different person when you think differently,
126
neurologically and behaviorally, because your brain wires around what you repeatedly think and do.
127
You know, what you repeat, you actually become in your life.
128
And so your brain changes based off of repetition and emotion.
129
And, you know, there's a thing that's called neuroplasticity, which if you've never heard me talk about, it's your brain's ability to rewire itself based on what you keep doing and what you keep thinking.
130
So if you think a thought once, not really a big deal.
131
But if you think it a hundred times a day, that becomes a program and your brain starts running the program over and over and over again.
132
And what programs your brain in the way that it thinks?
133
Well, it's what you think about in the patterns that you're stuck in.
134
You know, you have between 60 to 90,000 thoughts a day
135
and 95% of them are the same as they were the day before.
136
So when you keep thinking and rehearsing worst case scenarios, you're reinforcing neural pathways that link to uncertainty,
137
which equal danger, which equals shutdown or panic.
138
And when you train yourself to act as if everything works out for you, you're reinforcing neural pathways that link uncertainty to curiosity,
139
to courage, to action and trust.
140
The situations might be exactly the same, but the brain walking into them is completely different.
141
And this is why two people can have the exact same life event, and one can say, oh my gosh, this ruins me.
142
And the other one can say, this grows me.
143
It's the exact same event.
144
It's a different brain.
145
It's a different life.
146
And so you have to understand, like, real quickly, let me talk about how your brain actually filters this stuff through.
147
Because if you've never heard me talk about the reticular activating system, now this is going to make sense.
148
If you have, this is going to dive a little bit deeper than we normally do in the reticular activating system.
149
So your reticular activating system, if you've never heard of it, is a small network of neurons in your brainstem that acts like a filter for your reality.
150
And so your senses take in way more information than you can consciously hold in your mind.
151
You know, there's sounds, there's colors, there's feelings, there's faces, there's opportunities, there's threats, there's all these things.
152
And your reticular activating system decides, okay, out of the millions of things happening right now, what's actually important enough to send to my conscious awareness?
153
And here's the key.
154
Your reticular activating system is programmed by what you repeatedly focus on and believe.
155
If you believe that the world is out to get you, then you'll see every single place where you're going to be a victim.
156
If you believe that everything is working out for you, then you will see challenges as being there to help you and help you grow in some sort of way.
157
You'll see closed doors as you being guided in a better direction versus something to make yourself a victim of.
158
So, you know, the reticular activating system, perfect example that everybody always uses is like, if you go out and you buy a car, you don't really see that car very much until you buy it.
159
And then once you buy it, you suddenly see that car everywhere.
160
It's always been there.
161
It's just your brain didn't care before and now it does.
162
Before Lauren got pregnant, I never saw babies.
163
I like never saw pregnant women.
164
But now I'm like, holy s*, they're everywhere.
165
Like I didn't realize how many pregnant women there are.
166
I just didn't notice before because it wasn't something that I was focusing on.
167
And then once my wife gets pregnant, I'm like, oh my God, there's all these other women that are pregnant out here.
168
So you decide who you want to be.
169
You decide how you're going to show up.
170
And that's the reticular activating system.
171
It's not that the world has changed in any sort of way.
172
It's that the world that you live in, in your mind has changed.
173
It's the way that your brain operates and the filter that it has has changed.
174
Your world changes when your perception changes.
175
And so, you know, how your beliefs train your reticular activating system, let's dive into it real quick.
176
If deep down you believe nothing works out for me, people can't be trusted, I'm not good enough, your reticular activating system will highlight the betrayals and the failures
177
and the rejections and all the places where you're not good enough, and it will downplay all of the support or the wins or the possibilities in your life.
178
you will keep finding evidence how life is against you if that's what you think.
179
Because that's what you're searching for.
180
It's not because it's the full truth.
181
It's because that's what you're searching for.
182
But because your brain is literally filtering out the world to confirm what you already believe.
183
Now imagine that you start believing that everything is trying to work out for you.
184
Everything always works out for me in the end.
185
Your reticular activating system will start to work differently.
186
And it will begin to highlight synchronicities, to notice opportunities, to spot helpful people that are in your life, to see solutions where you only solve problems before.
187
You become someone who ends up just getting lucky more often.
188
It's not luck, it's your filter.
189
You're training your brain to notice what serves your growth, ignore more of what doesn't,
190
and then connect the dots where you might have missed them in the past.
191
And that's why acting as if everything always works out for you isn't just motivational, like it's actually perceptual and neurological.
192
And so what you think, you create.
193
So if you think that the world's out to get you, you'll see the world's out to get you.
194
If you think that everything always works out for you, you will start to get everything to work out for you.
195
And now people can get really weird with this and they think, oh yeah, well, they can go real, try to go real magical,
196
and say, oh, like, if I just think about money falling from the sky, I'm just going to be rich.
197
I wouldn't say that, right?
198
Other people go full skeptic and they say, hey, that's nonsense, hard work's the only thing that matters.
199
The truth is kind of in the middle of both of those.
200
A little bit spiritual, a little bit practical.
201
So the grounded way of thinking about it and understanding is your thoughts in life shape your emotional state.
202
Your emotional state shapes your actions and your actions will shape your results.
203
So no, you don't sit on your couch
204
and manifest a new life by meditating on a couch cushion for five or eight hours a day, But also you just don't grind away a new life
205
while thinking and feeling like a failure every single day And
206
so if you look at that like if we take two different
207
Take the exact same let's take a scenario right
208
and I'll give you script a and script B right
209
so let's say you launch a new Project a new business and it fails script a would be nothing works out.
210
Your thought would be, of course, I knew this was going to fail.
211
This proves that I'm not cut out for this.
212
Your emotions then would be shame and discouragement and embarrassment.
213
Your actions, you would withdraw.
214
You'd stop trying.
215
You'd avoid risk, maybe numb out the world.
216
And your result is you would get less feedback, less skill, less opportunity, and your future would then remain small.
217
Now, let's say script B, when you actually look at it, this failure that you had, and you actually do think everything works out for me, the thought is, okay, this didn't go as planned,
218
but I know there's a lesson or some sort of redirection here.
219
The emotion is disappointment, but still with curiosity and determination in some sort of way.
220
The action is you look at the data, you ask for feedback, you experiment again, you refine, you get better, and then you eventually, the result,
221
you grow, you improve, and you eventually hit something that does work.
222
It's the same event in the person's life, but it's a different story.
223
It's a different nervous system response and different behaviors.
224
So when I say what you think you create, I'm not saying you just magically control reality.
225
What I'm saying is the lens that you see the world and reality through, the state that your brain and your body operate in, the quality of the actions that you take,
226
All of those change based off of what you think about.
227
And so over time, that will create a completely different life for somebody.
228
And so you have to understand, it's not about just saying affirmations all day long.
229
It's about changing your identity.
230
You're moving from, I'm the type of person that bad things happen to, to I'm the type of person that always finds a way to work things out.
231
And the identity shift changes everywhere, everything in your life.
232
It changes your posture.
233
Like you walk a little bit more open.
234
You breathe a little bit deeper.
235
You're less collapsed and sunken over.
236
Your energy will be different.
237
People will feel safer around you when you start to think this way because you're not stuck in a fearful state.
238
You'll feel more grounded.
239
You'll feel less frantic and full of worry.
240
You become someone that other people actually want to be around.
241
It'll change your decisions.
242
You'll take more aligned risks in your life.
243
You'll leave situations that are clearly wrong for you
244
and you'll stop begging for crumbs and start building your own table that you want to sit at.
245
And so in your relationships will change.
246
I mean, everything will.
247
You'll be less clingy and controlling.
248
You'll be more honest and authentic.
249
You'll trust that the right people will stay and the wrong ones will eventually fall away.
250
And you become somebody who trusts himself, trust that they can handle the hard things, and trust that even if they fail, they're going to get back up and know that it'll make sense later.
251
And that's what's powerful about the whole situation.
252
And so really, it's quite simple.
253
You have to adopt a new default.
254
You can do that through questions if you want to.
255
Your questions guide your perception.
256
You just need to ask better questions.
257
So when something happens to you and say, if saying like, oh my God, why is this happening to me?
258
Think, how might this be working out for me in the long run?
259
That's going to change your perception.
260
Why is this happening to me?
261
Victim.
262
How might this work out for me in the long run?
263
Now I'm trying to find some actual true meaning behind this thing.
264
Start to think about that for a second.
265
If you act as if, and you start to become the type of person that you want to become, you will step into being that person.
266
So you've got to think to yourself, if the world's always working out for me, if I'm trying to step into the person that I want to be, what's one thing that I can do today that that version of me would do?
267
And then you pair your new beliefs with bold, aligned action.
268
Of course, your life is going to change.
269
You're going to do things you've never done before.
270
You're not going to sit back.
271
You're not going to do nothing.
272
You're going to do things that used to scare you.
273
You're going to send the email.
274
You're going to have the hard conversation.
275
You're going to launch the business.
276
You're going to leave a situation that's clearly wrong for you.
277
And action by action, step by step, you're becoming the type of person by acting as if you are
278
that person and acting as if everything is always working out for you.
279
And so as I wrap up, I want you to imagine something.
280
I want you to imagine that from this day forward, your default belief became in the end, things always work out for me because I always show up, I always learn, and I always get better.
281
Imagine how differently you would handle setbacks and walk into opportunities.
282
and show up in relationships and talk to yourself in the mirror.
283
Just think about that.
284
So for the next seven days, when something goes quote unquote wrong, just pause and say out loud, this is working out for me somehow.
285
And then ask yourself, how might this be working out for me?
286
And then you just take one small action each day that the future you would need to take.
287
And you wake up two, three, four, five years down the road, and you are a different person because you acted like a different person.
288

Este tipo de prática, especialmente através de shadowing em inglês, permite que você se familiarize não apenas com o vocabulário e as expressões utilizadas, mas também com a entonação e a cadência natural da língua. Ao agir como se tudo sempre funcionasse, você não apenas começa a desenvolver uma mentalidade positiva, mas também melhora sua fluência, especialmente ao replicar as falas do locutor. Essa prática de conversação em inglês é fundamental para aqueles que desejam soar mais nativos e ganhar confiança em situações cotidianas.

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.
