It is a beautiful day here in San Diego, California.

I'm sitting on top of a lifeguard tower watching this massive swell come in

because apparently we're in the middle of a hurricane and as a result there's some pretty good waves.

But I just finished a five and a half mile run, feeling incredible, feeling blessed.

And I wanted to make this video because I wish

that my 18 to 24 year old younger self could have had this

because it would have made a big difference in my life.

and someone recently asked me they said how do you stay

so calm yet ambitious at the same time

and it was a really good question

because in my past I had always been like so anxious

and stressed and put so much pressure on myself to go out

and achieve all these goals that I had set for myself as well as these expectations

that I felt from other people not that they had ever explicitly said that they expected certain things from me,

but I was putting this pressure on myself that I needed to go out and achieve these certain things.

Whether that was material success, getting a certain type of job, making a certain amount of money, getting a certain type of house,

or maybe it was relationships, like getting a girlfriend, getting engaged, marrying her, having a family,

or just the type of person that I wanted to be.

All of these different aspects of life where it's like, okay, there's a lot of expectation and pressure from other people,

from myself that I want to live up to.

And I have to do so much in order to make that happen.

And it always seemed like no matter what I was doing, it was never enough, right?

And not even like never enough for other people, but for myself.

I always felt like I could be doing more.

No matter how much I achieved in the day, I was like, I need to be doing more.

We got a little drive -by from a tractor right here.

Check that out.

And yeah, it wasn't fun.

It wasn't fun to experience that, always thinking like, I need to be doing more.

And it always had me thinking about the future a lot as well.

What's next?

What am I going to do?

What are the next steps that need to happen?

And I'd always be thinking 20 steps ahead.

and now more than ever I live

so much more in the present obviously I still think about the future

but I'm much more present

and grounded in my life I'm gonna wait for this tractor to go by

so I'm much more present in my life now and

that has helped tremendously and kind of the thought exercise that has helped me

is if I asked you whatever goal you have do you have full faith that that will happen, irregardless of time.

Maybe it takes a year, five years, 10 years, could be 20 years.

Do you have full faith that that goal, whatever you want to happen, will actually become a reality?

If the answer is yes, then you don't have to stress at all because you just told me that you have full faith it'll happen.

If you have full confidence in something that will happen, why would you stress about it?

Right?

Maybe the question is, I have full faith that it'll happen and I thought it would happen a lot earlier, but it hasn't happened yet.

And so as a result, I am stressing because of that.

If that's the case, I have this belief that everything happens for a reason and everything's happening in perfect timing.

And so if you have an expectation of a certain timeline of something happening and it hasn't happened yet, it is my belief that

It has not happened because you are not fully ready to actually receive whatever it is that you are desiring.

Maybe you are not the type of man that is capable of handling that type of pressure, the type of success.

Maybe you need to develop into a higher version of yourself to actually be capable of receiving it.

Maybe if you did receive it, you wouldn't be ready for it.

And as a result, something way worse would happen in your life

and you would squander the opportunity and so there are experiences

that you need to go through in your life before you can fully appreciate

and actually be worthy of achieving whatever you're desiring.

And so stay on the path that you're on because eventually it will happen.

If you believe it is inevitable, the time does not matter, right?

When it happens, it could happen in a year, it could happen in five years.

If you know it's going to happen and it will happen, just enjoy the ride.

The flip side of this is

that you might think well I don't have full faith

that it's going to happen

and that's why I'm stressed that's why I feel this pressure

I have this this need to be able to go out wake up early get after

it do everything I can in my power to make sure that I have more faith that this will happen.

And I totally understand that because I've gone through similar thoughts and experiences as well.

And what I came to realize is all of that extra pressure

and stress and anxiety that I was placing on myself wasn't actually helping me perform better.

It's okay to acknowledge the fact that, hey, I might not be where I want to be at

or where I think I'm capable of being at and therefore I need to improve.

Acknowledge that that is the truth.

Stay calm in that belief and do the things that are necessary to get better.

But if, you know, I'm big into sports.

Like if I'm working, if there's a team, if there's a quarterback that I'm working with or that I'm betting on,

whatever it is, that feels the absolute pressure of the expectations of going out

and winning a championship that season and

that he has to do absolutely everything in his power to go do it

and every single day he's just stressed he's never actually in flow state

and so there are incredible athletes

that I look up to I've been watching the Saban documentary

and it's just like so inspirational motivational that guy he has full faith full belief in his ability and the process,

but he's not outcome oriented.

He's not worrying about going out and winning a championship.

Sure, that's the expectation, but all he thinks about is what can I do today in this moment?

How can I make sure that the process, the things that I'm doing are actually going to lead to success?

And when he talks about the game, it's not an entire game.

It's just a segment of six second plays and the more six second plays that you can win

The more likely you are to actually win the game

and the more games you win the more likely to win a championship so

He's never actually thinking about winning a championship.

It's about showing up putting in your full effort doing your assignment executing your job

and doing it with enthusiasm with grit with intensity every single play and And so with myself,

that's kind of what I realized over the last couple years where it's like,

all that matters is that I just show up and do my best.

I don't need to stress too much about what's going to be happening next week, next year.

Did I wake up and execute the plan for today and do so to the best of my ability?

100

If I did, I have nothing to worry about because I can't do anything more.

101

If there is something that I can do additionally, then I'll do it.

102

most of the time though, we become these like productivity efficiency addicts where we think

103

that we have to be the most efficient person in the entire world and always be doing something productive.

104

And if we're going for a walk, we have to be listening to a podcast.

105

And if we're, you know, in the shower, then we got to throw the podcast on as well.

106

And we have to be calling people and always doing X, Y, and Z in order to make sure that we're making progress. And that's great.

107

And if that's your MO, go out and do it.

108

But to me, there's more to life than just going out and achieving all sorts of success.

109

There are also parts of life of being a human being.

110

And that means sitting back, going out in nature, enjoying the present moment,

111

taking a breath and realizing everything is going to be okay.

112

You've made it this far in life.

113

You've already had a tremendous amount of success.

114

And on top of that, you are so much more educated and experienced

115

and mature through all of those experiences

116

that the past does not dictate the future because with all of the knowledge you have for yourself,

117

you're only going to continue to do better and perform better and achieve more.

118

So the past is not a predictor of the future.

119

And I think that oftentimes that was always my expectation.

120

The trajectory of my past was going to indicate the trajectory of my future.

121

And that's just not the case.

122

We cannot indicate or we cannot predict the trajectory of our future because we're constantly learning, experiencing, growing, and things are always changing, right?

123

10 years ago, you never would have guessed that AI would be

124

so accessible to everyone and that you'd be able to save

125

so much time and have so many questions answered and be

126

so much more efficient that there are people that are starting companies.

127

There are one man companies that are worth hundreds of millions of dollars.

128

Never would have thought about that 10 years ago.

129

So if you're trying to predict the future 10 years ago and your success and you're in the tech space, like you probably would have failed.

130

So my point being, stop worrying so much about the future.

131

It's only stressing you out.

132

It's not benefiting you.

133

The thing that's going to help you the most

134

be grounded in the present focus on the things that you can control

135

the effort that you give the mindset that you have

136

And just do your best.

137

Do your best.

138

Stay calm.

139

Be a human being.

140

Experience the full array of emotions, but focus on being a little bit more positive.

141

And if you do that, it's pretty magical.

142

You'll start to see that things start to get a lot better. So that's it.

143

Enjoy the day.

144

Maybe go outside.

145

Check out Mother Nature. And, yeah.

146

Hope you have a good day.

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.
