1
Excuse me sir, I'm not selling anything I promise.
2
I'm a portrait photographer.
3
You're?
4
I'm a portrait photographer and I think you have an amazing look.
5
But you don't have to say yes to me.
6
It's okay, I can show you what I do.
7
No, I just checked your energy and your energy was good.
8
What's your name sir?
9
Xavier.
10
Are you from London originally?
11
I've always lived here.
12
Jamaican heritage but yeah, lived in London most of my life.
13
Excellent.
14
Are you a happy man?
15
Incredibly, yeah.
16
You seem it?
17
Yeah, because of the way how I view the world.
18
The lens that I have is very truthful.
19
Most of the time, people that are struggling with their life is because of what they're comparing it to.
20
So I'm saying, okay, cool, stop comparing it to that.
21
And now let's compare it to yourself.
22
You're being a bad copy of somebody else rather than being an authentic version of self.
23
How are you with getting your photo taken?
24
Are you cool?
25
You're cool, yeah?
26
I'm all right.
27
I'm over myself.
28
I'm not lonely, I am alone sometimes.
29
I spend a lot of time alone, even though I come from a huge family.
30
I've got five older brothers.
31
But I spend a lot of time alone.
32
And what I do in that time, or what I do in that space, is create, I evolve, I imagine.
33
And we used to do this thing when we were children.
34
We used to sit down in class, we used to look out the window, and we used to do this thing that they call daydream.
35
Most adults never daydream.
36
You do it as a kid, you sit down and you just imagine, you imagine, you imagine, and the things that you imagine are brilliant things, are amazing things, and anything is possible.
37
And then as adults, you sit down and that time is spent worrying, so you don't dream anymore.
38
Your body doesn't know the difference between a thought and an event, your body just responds.
39
There's a lot of people that have a lot of people around them and are lonely.
40
So they're not alone, but they are lonely.
41
When you understand the difference between the two, then you start appreciating, okay, cool.
42
The best company that you need to have and keep is your own.
43
And then make that a happy place or make that even an interesting place, a place that you can appreciate.
44
Your authentic self, some people will hate, some people will love.
45
And the ones that love you, they stay, the others, you let them pass.
46
So then this loneliness thing then starts to disappear.
47
And like, well, I put out this and they put out the wrong image.
48
Stop lying.
49
You're upset that they didn't believe it, but you didn't believe it.
50
Do you have regrets in life?
51
Do you believe in regrets?
52
People say, by this age, by this stage, should be, should have, should this.
53
And I'm like, well, for you maybe, but for me, no. I didn't design my life this way.
54
So how I've designed my life, I'm living in perfect time and in perfect synchronicity with it.
55
My mum, she's passed now.
56
She'd always say, I don't mind dying as long as I live first.
57
That's always stuck with me my whole life.
58
I need to live.
59
I need to do this.
60
I need to just experience it.
61
It's like, that might be bad.
62
It's like, well, cool, I'll learn from that.
63
Bad things can happen.
64
Sometimes I will be alone.
65
Sometimes I will feel depressed and stressed and anxious.
66
So when you accept it, it's like, okay, cool, now I'm in it.
67
What now?
68
So I'm like, well, fine.
69
Let's sit in this for a minute, for an hour.
70
And I'll set a timer on it.
71
And then I'm like, OK, I'm bored now.
72
Let's go and do something else.
73
And I'd go for a walk.
74
I was going to go straight home.
75
But I thought I'd go for a little stroll.
76
I don't come down to the West End much.
77
So when I do, I like coming around and looking at architecture.
78
And just I love people watching as well.
79
But the more people do that, the better it is.
80
Sometimes people's poison, what they believe is poison, is actually their antidote, which is actually getting out,
81
being amongst people, and going for walks and going for strolls and everybody's behind their phones.
82
And that thing stops you from doing the one thing that we were born to do was touch, communicate, the social media isn't social.
83
I just travelled a minute ago and I went to the airport and they go to me, you can go to the automatic machine.
84
And I was like, no, thanks, I'd rather speak to a human.
85
And the guy looked at me like, literally, his face was like, but I'm always trying to get human connection, contact.
86
It's just key.
87
We're desperate for it, but we're also a little bit scared of it.
88
I'm speaking for myself.
89
I'm desperate for it, but I'm also a little bit scared of it. Because?
90
We're going up doing this, like going up to somebody.
91
I'm always preparing for the worst.
92
The person's going to be dismissive, be rude, and I'm going to feel rejected, but that hardly ever happens, actually.
93
Your reference point is nine times out of ten?
94
Yes.
95
I'm good.
96
You still focus on the one.
97
Yeah.
98
Why?
99
You're always scanning for danger. For?
100
Danger.
101
The interesting thing is when you start thinking of the worst thing, the worst thing appears in your psyche, in your energy.
102
So then think of the opposite.
103
The minute you start challenging that narrative, then the narrative starts to disappear.
104
Living is a choice.
105
Dying is an inevitability.
106
You don't have a say in it.
107
Now, do you want to live?
108
Perfect.
109
Thank you so much.
110
It's been a pleasure.

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.
