Практика Shadowing: Asking 20 and 30 Year Olds About Their Biggest Regrets in Life - Изучайте разговорный английский по видео
Создание урока...
1
Over the last three years, I have asked more than a thousand people of all ages in over 35 countries one question.
2
What is one thing that when you were younger, you put a lot of importance on?
3
And as you've gotten older, you realized it wasn't worth worrying about.
4
Usually we speak with older people, age 60 and up.
5
But along the way, I've met some young people with really interesting stories and life lessons.
6
And their answers have taught me more about life than any book, video, course, or school could.
7
And in this video, I'll be sharing some of the most insightful, emotional, and knowledgeable answers that we have heard to date.
8
What is something that when you were younger, you put a lot of importance on, and as you got older, you realized wasn't as important?
9
I feel like a lot of what my focus was when I was younger is other people's opinions.
10
And now all I really care about is I respond to these opinions, and obviously only the circle of my loved ones.
11
I should have just listened to my intuition and I shouldn't have considered
12
so many opinions and I shouldn't have cared for so much.
13
And it should have just been about what really mattered, not at that point in time, but possibly in the many years to come.
14
Changing myself, like changing my personality to hang out with a lot of different people was,
15
I don't know, now I'm 30 and I'm like, I think I'm good.
16
I worried about what other people think.
17
Do you still?
18
Yes, but I'm learning not to.
19
Okay.
20
Yeah.
21
I'm learning to own myself and accept the fact that I have no control over what other people think about me.
22
Yeah, none.
23
None.
24
So, you can think I'm an asshole, you can think I'm an idiot, you can think that I'm a genius, none of it matters.
25
Right.
26
You know?
27
And you can do the right thing, you can do the wrong thing, people will still have an opinion.
28
Well, and that's the thing, I've learned that it's not about doing the right or wrong thing, because it's actually so subjective subjective and it's so nuanced and
29
so there's no making a right or wrong decision it's just making a decision
30
and owning the decision and you might acknowledge
31
that decision was perhaps not the the one
32
that you would be making now
33
but that's not to say it was the wrong decision it's just a decision right yeah
34
and no matter what it is people will have opinions exactly
35
and so how are we able to acknowledge that the other voices are so much louder if we let them be.
36
But if we only listen to ourselves, you know, perhaps that might be a different exercise.
37
And so it's finding the balance.
38
Absolutely.
39
We all feel love in certain ways, depending on how we grew up and how our parents are.
40
And so, you know, when I would do something well, I would get attention, right?
41
I would get love and if I got good grades or if I won an award.
42
And so I put a lot of value and self-worth on doing something good.
43
So I thought that I had to receive love by doing.
44
And for me, when I became really, really sick, I wasn't doing anything.
45
And so I felt very unworthy.
46
Like who would like me if I don't have a job?
47
Who would like me if I'm not making money?
48
Who would like me, you know, if I don't live on my own or I don't have all these accomplishments?
49
And so, you know, that was a big one for me.
50
And I would say the other biggest one is I was never taught to find answers inside.
51
You know, our heart is really like this is the treasure chest.
52
This is where all the gold is.
53
I don't know about you growing up, but I heard things like, don't listen to your heart.
54
Like, that's silly, right?
55
But yeah, yeah, you know, or you got to be realistic or, you know, be logical.
56
She's shaking her head.
57
Yeah, yeah.
58
Do you want to move over one?
59
No, I like to be in the center of the shot.
60
Where do I go?
61
I think you'll get more views.
62
Right.
63
There.
64
I'm going to do this.
65
What?
66
What?
67
Why are you tired already?
68
We didn't even start.
69
Do you guys see this?
70
My god.
71
What would you say is the difference between people who have it more figured out versus those that are still lost?
72
I think the people that seem pretty well established and like they're thriving in life block out a lot of the noise.
73
It's like I think they focus a lot on themselves
74
and a little bit less on the people around them and what they're doing.
75
I think also growing up there's a lot of people in our lives
76
that we compare ourselves to constantly and as we grow up, the more we do that, the more it restricts how much you're able to find yourself.
77
And those people that I know
78
that I think have figured it out just spend a lot of time thinking about themselves
79
and not thinking so much about what everyone else they know is doing.
80
Everyone has such different priorities, so as soon as you start comparing to what other people are doing,
81
you're immediately, you're going to feel lost because you don't understand where that value stems from because it's not your own.
82
And I think that might hold a lot of people back in their 20s from really enjoying it, finding themselves.
83
I think you gotta stop caring how other people think about you, you know?
84
Like friends and family, that's what's important, right?
85
Fuck the rest.
86
You don't need to care about someone else, you know?
87
Like, why do you care about people who don't care about you, right?
88
Life gets much, much, much, much, much easier if you have that mindset.
89
What's a big mistake you've made or a big regret you have that taught you a valuable lesson in life?
90
I was spending too much on worrying about things that never happened.
91
So I stopped worrying about the future.
92
Like when I was broke, I thought I would be much, much happier.
93
I don't worry about things.
94
My everyday is going to be the best.
95
Now I have savings enough to enjoy my life, rest of my life.
96
But still, same days, same day, same life.
97
It gets easier if you have money.
98
But that's it.
99
That's the only thing that money can do, I think your mental health, your human relationships, money can do anything about it.
100
And that's what's important in your life, right?
101
Like more than money.
102
Human relationship, that's very important, I think.
103
All I cared about was my job, my work.
104
Now, the only thing I care about is spending time with my loved ones.
105
Yes, money is important, but nothing is more important than spending time with your loved ones
106
because you really don't know how much time you have loved with them.
107
And I had to realize this in a hard way.
108
Back in 2022, my best friend passed away in a skydiving accident.
109
I remember that entire summer, I was always working and I was taking summer school courses.
110
And she was texting me, let's hang out, let's do this.
111
And I kept making excuses.
112
Of course, I loved her and she was my best friend, but I was still focused on this vision that I had that I kind of put my loved ones aside.
113
And that's my biggest regret.
114
I wish I had spent more time with him.
115
I'm sorry.
116
That's terrible.
117
Now that's what I do all the time.
118
Whatever I'm doing, I make sure that I at least spend a couple hours with my loved ones that day.
119
In 2017, I was given five years to live, and I did every kind of treatment,
120
Eastern, Western medicine, and eventually I just had a doctor look at me and say, I'm really sorry, but there's nothing we can do.
121
We don't take the time to find happiness in every moment.
122
We don't take the time to love every single moment, right?
123
Whatever it is.
124
So every moment after that feels like a gift.
125
I don't take it for granted.
126
I feel like, oh my God, I woke up today.
127
Like, no way.
128
If I'm trying to figure my life out and feeling like I'm not down the right path, what's a question I could ask myself to maybe get closer to it?
129
Who am I really when people are not looking?
130
What is the one thing that I love doing that I could do for free for the rest of my life?
131
What are the last things I like to see in my
132
final moments is one that's kind of really hard to think about.
133
I think of the last five minutes of my life, I really think that the last moments of my life are going to be the longest
134
and I might be there for a while and I don't want that movie to be bad.
135
I want to just, you know, leave with a smile on my face and just think about
136
that I left it all on the table and just go out in peace.
137
People are shit scared of change, right?
138
Change is beautiful.
139
Change is where you learn the most.
140
Change is where you really understand yourself, where you further develop yourself as well.
141
Change is one of the best things that you can possibly get to.
142
So I would say change up your environment.
143
That's how you can keep on adding spice.
144
Yes, it can be difficult.
145
Change up where you work.
146
Instead of working in your desk, go work in a coffee shop.
147
Go work in a library.
148
Really get creative with it.
149
Stop eating at the same places.
150
Go eat at a different place.
151
Just be curious.
152
Get out there a bit more.
153
Try different things.
154
I think people stop at trying different things people get very comfortable trying the same thing.
155
But, you know, we age slower when we try new things because we slow down time.
156
Every time we try something new, we slow down time because it's new to us.
157
And that's a great way to then look back and see
158
that you've done so many things and
159
that you've just not become a rat race or a hamster in the scheme of life.
160
You're not going to know what the right choice is until you make the wrong ones.
161
I would love to of course have made the right choice immediately.
162
That would be lovely.
163
To not experience any form of discomfort, right?
164
But by making choices you slowly, I think, trim the fad of what the right choice is through experience.
165
You could be stuck in any situation, stuck in a job you don't like, stuck in a relationship you don't like, stuck in a city that you don't like, stuck in a way of thinking that you don't like.
166
And I think there's a lot of anxiety around not knowing what to choose.
167
And I think that one can, I guess, be a little bit hesitant, very hesitant about making a choice because they're emphasizing wanting to make the right choice.
168
If you put your mind into something, you would be surprised at what you can do.
169
When I was 35, I was like, it is my dream since I was four to have my own concert.
170
Next year, I'm going to have my own concert.
171
So I just started knocking on doors.
172
I started asking people.
173
I started saying that in interviews, like that is my dream and that's what I want to pursue.
174
And people will hear you and people that want to give you opportunity, you have to allow people that want to give you opportunity to find you.
175
Yo, write your main goals on a paper and put it on your bedroom.
176
And every single day I woke up and I looked at that and I was like, what are the steps that I can take to go to that goal?
177
And if I did that this year, I'm good.
178
You'll be so surprised what you can do in just one year.
179
Yeah, out of sight, out of mind, right?
180
But when things are in front of your face, when they seem to manifest all over, you make your luck.
181
What is luck?
182
It's when opportunity meets action.
183
Yeah, actually, yeah.
184
Huge announcement.
185
We have just released our second product in multiple colors.
186
This is our 1% journal.
187
It's a morning journal that uses data collection and psychology to make each day happier, more positive, and more productive.
188
If you've ever watched our videos, you have probably seen hundreds of our interviewees use it.
189
Actually, last year we released it, but only in the black color.
190
And finally, we have just released it in gray and lavender in two sets of very small batches.
191
If you want one of these, click the link in our description or scan the QR code on screen.
192
All of our journals and planners are based on the advice and lessons you hear all over our channel.
193
Okay, back to the video.
194
When I was younger, I feel like the education system, it makes you think that you'll wake up one day like, this is what I want to do, right? like that there'll be some sort of inkling,
195
some sort of feeling that okay you've arrived at the thing
196
that you're supposed to do and at a certain point in the last, when I was earlier in my 20s I figured out that
197
that day was never going to come and that brought me a certain degree of peace, more of acceptance that you will never know what you're actually supposed to be doing
198
and therein that lies the peace as opposed to thinking that there's actually something you're supposed to do.
199
A belief is just something we've told ourselves over and over again.
200
What I'm telling you right now i believe it right like
201
if if especially with my own journey like if i meet somebody
202
and they have stage four cancer i'm like you can heal no problem right you got this
203
and they're like but i have such a firm belief
204
because of what i've gone through i have such a firm belief
205
and possibilities a belief in miracles a belief of you know meditating and going within
206
but just as strong as those beliefs are for me you know your father telling you hey you
207
that that's unpredictable like you might not be safe there that's a belief shaped by his realities
208
but we have to understand is just
209
because it's true for them doesn't mean it's true for you right
210
but what we have to know is
211
that our beliefs 100 affect how we perceive reality the story we tell is the life
212
that we live and i would say one of the biggest things in my life is
213
when i stopped telling the same story we're all addicts newsflash
214
we are all addicts you you are either addicted to pain and suffering, or you're addicted to joy or curiosity.
215
We become addicted to lives we don't even like.
216
And how do you change then?
217
You have to start telling yourself a new story, right?
218
You have to start thinking new thoughts.
219
It's the only way to get beyond.
220
And so for years, because I had this belief that I was nothing if I didn't accomplish something, the hardest thing for me is when people would say,
221
well, what do you do?
222
And I went from having like a very incredible career
223
and being on red carpets and having my own sports show and all of these things to then being sick.
224
And so when people would ask me, I would try to compensate that insecurity and say, well, I am S-I-C-K.
225
I don't even want to say it.
226
Right.
227
And every time I say that I was reaffirming a state.
228
And so the moment I stopped telling people what was wrong with me and I just started to become a new person, my life changed.
229
And our life will always reflect the thoughts that we have, the beliefs that we have, and the stories that we tell each other.
230
So I think one of the fastest ways to change is
231
to think of what is the greatest life I can live and start telling that.
232
And people would say, well, is that like fake it till you make it or are you lying?
233
And I would say no. I think that version of you is more real than this one.
234
If that feels like you, that's more alive than this moment.
235
Yeah.
236
But you've got to speak it into existence.
237
Yeah.
238
The door will show up.
239
That's not the question.
240
The question is, do you have the courage to walk through it?
241
The story I told myself, careful the stories that you tell yourself,
242
because sometimes life teaches you things and you can't attach to a narrative that you decided before you learned said things.
243
I really centered my identity around being a lawyer.
244
I decided that being a lawyer meant that I would have established myself as an individual and along the way it, I've learned that that is not for me.
245
So what I've learned is not to center my identity around being something, not around a person, not around a career.
246
Like my self and identity has nothing to do with anyone.
247
Who I am is not what I am.
248
But it was that experience that taught me that.
249
When my grandmother was my age, she had two children, but now I'm on the precipice of 30 and it looks like my whole life is in front of me.
250
And I also feel like I've wasted so much time and none of that is true.
251
Okay, what about the last part makes you say that?
252
Nothing is true.
253
What do you mean?
254
Age is just a number.
255
And we are so grateful and fortunate to be alive.
256
And so life is what we make of it.
257
And therefore, if we feel young, we're young.
258
If we feel old, we're old.
259
It's all a mindset, as they say.
260
As they say.
261
What do you think, if you look at your life at this point, the last few years, what has been an event that happened that significantly changed the outcome of where you are today?
262
Puberty.
263
I definitely think that for you, yeah.
264
Probably meeting you guys, like being around the right people.
265
He's trying to ask you up.
266
Oh, that guy has something for the mic.
267
If you could just give one piece of advice to someone who's around your age, who's trying to figure things out, trying to get to be happier, healthier, hotter, richer, all of that,
268
what's the first thing that comes to your mind?
269
Do shit that makes you wildly uncomfortable.
270
If it's making you uncomfortable, it's probably a good sign.
271
Unless somebody's getting really hurt or, like, getting injured or, like, emotionally damaged, then, like, you're probably good, you know?
272
Like, you're in the clear.
273
Go and do that thing that makes you super uncomfortable.
274
Whether it's for dating, whether it's trying something new, trying a new food, traveling to a new country, saying you're a photographer when you're not,
275
and just figuring that shit out, like, whatever it is, you know?
276
Like, just be uncomfortable.
277
I would say figure out what was the thing
278
that you wanted to do before society or school or your job or your parents told you that you shouldn't do that.
279
Go and do that thing and figure out a way that you can make money doing that thing.
280
Recognizing that happiness is a fleeting horizon and it's a choice.
281
Like the faster that you learn that it's a choice and it's not a destination, the more peace that you'll bring to yourself.
282
The pursuit of happiness is great, but recognize that the pursuit, like you decide when the pursuit is over, not somebody else.
283
And I guess if I could add one, also having great friends that can share.
284
No, no, no, don't add, don't add.
285
You're just an interviewer.
286
Don't add.
287
But having great friends that can talk like this, that you can be funny with and you can get deep with also.
288
None of you guys said anything about that.
289
You weren't thinking about me, obviously.
290
How much of a difference is having good friends who share the same values, same mission?
291
That makes the hard thing easy, right?
292
At the end of the line, that's all I'm at.
293
That is happiness.
294
Relationships.
295
Yeah. For sure.
296
To me, it's just things are going to take the time they're going to take.
297
And so being understanding and kind and graceful and just acknowledging that you can't be in a rush,
298
but you also can't take your time.
299
Yeah.
300
So it's like finding the right balance between working hard and also enjoying your life.
301
And finding motivation to get up in the morning and also being kind and gentle to yourself when you don't want to.
302
I think people have forgotten to romanticize their life.
303
I think that they're looking for meaning elsewhere
304
or they're trying to find meaning in things that are not really substantial or have enough substance substance, like social media has done that for a lot of people.
305
They see just the surface of a person and not really what they've been through and who they are in the inside.
306
And I think people should romanticize their life and the moments that they have with themselves.
307
I think that people deep down, they have something that they treasure, that they have forgotten about.
308
And I like to argue that, you know, the treasure that you could be seeking could be right below your feet, but you just don't know where you stand.
309
You know, know your worth think that's what really leads people to be the happiest.

Что такое техника Shadowing?
Shadowing — это научно обоснованная техника изучения языка, изначально разработанная для подготовки профессиональных переводчиков и популяризированная полиглотом доктором Александром Аргуэльесом. Метод прост, но эффективен: вы слушаете аудио на английском от носителей языка и немедленно повторяете вслух — как тень, следующая за говорящим с задержкой в 1–2 секунды. В отличие от пассивного прослушивания или грамматических упражнений, Shadowing заставляет мозг и мышцы рта одновременно обрабатывать и воспроизводить реальные речевые паттерны. Исследования показывают, что это значительно улучшает точность произношения, интонацию, ритм, связную речь, понимание на слух и беглость речи — что делает его одним из самых эффективных методов для подготовки к IELTS Speaking и реального общения на английском.
