1
You're being held up by a tree, so don't fall, alright?
2
How you guys doing?
3
This week I've been reading a book by Louis L 'Amour called Bendigo Shafter.
4
And there was a passage I got to on Tuesday that just stopped me for the whole week.
5
It stopped me from reading for the whole week.
6
It is Sunday now, and I never got a few, any, you know, not more than a few pages past that.
7
Because I just kept thinking about it, kept reflecting on it, kept going to my notebook and writing about it.
8
And that's what I want to share about.
9
In this story, in the passage, Bendigo Shafter was reading
10
Henry David Thoreau's Walden, and he was reflecting about his own process of becoming a man.
11
And he says in it, I needed what all men needed, a destination.
12
He said in the final analysis, it's not what anybody else thinks of a man that matters, but what he thinks of himself.
13
and this was him in kind of reflection or dialogue with the Thoreau quote
14
public opinion is a weak tyrant compared to a man's own opinions of himself
15
it is what a man thinks of himself that determines or rather indicates his fate
16
oh baby oh baby I love these quotes I love these quotes
17
and I think they matter so much they're so important because the stories we tell ourselves about who we are,
18
what we believe about what we're good at, what we're bad at, what we're like, you know, all of that stuff matters so much.
19
And whether you believe it or not or think it or not, what we think about ourselves, it gets reinforced in our behaviors.
20
It gets played out in our behaviors and then it kind of becomes this self -fulfilling prophecy in a lot of ways.
21
My own personal anecdote for
22
that is from as long as I could remember
23
I was very bad at school very bad the first test
24
I ever remember taking I remember failing having to sit in the back of the class with a assistant teacher
25
while everybody else moved on and I was getting retaught the the stuff
26
and trying to get pushed into passing the test and then
27
that was my whole school career was just d d c c f d c v
28
you know not v what am I doing
29
but I was failing every day I was always one step away from failing
30
and of course school districts will do whatever they got to do to nudge you into not failing
31
so I survived and I made it to college
32
and immediately put on academic probation
33
and I remember thinking like well what do you want
34
you know with my dad like arguments like what do you want
35
I'm an idiot I've always been stupid what do you expect like i i can't do this
36
and uh i ran up against a teacher at this time
37
that was not willing to help me nudge me along
38
you know what i mean they weren't going to give me the excuses
39
or the extra time or this or that they just said you know
40
if you want to do well in this class you need to work a lot harder
41
and they asked me what are you doing uh to do
42
well in this class like what is your goal how many hours a week are you studying
43
and I was I was kind of like you know I do my homework I I come
44
and I listen I take notes in class they're like okay how often are you going through those notes
45
and so they were kind of calling me out right
46
and making me realize that I wasn't doing as much work
47
because I've learned to not do though I learned that even
48
if I do the work I'm not going to do well
49
it doesn't matter I'm not going to waste my time I'm going to fail anyway.
50
I'm not good at math.
51
I'm not good at statistics.
52
It was a statistics class.
53
I was like, I'm not good at this.
54
I can't do this.
55
But I tried because there was a lot going on in my time, in my life at the time.
56
My dad had been kind of taking it to me with the, do you ever even think about what the future looks like?
57
I need you to get your eyes up, son, and look at where you're heading because your life is not on a good path.
58
You need to think about what you're doing he was hitting me with those speeches
59
and so I was willing to listen to this professor
60
because I was like all right something's got to change I got to do something differently
61
so I started to go to the library started to study started to put in hours reading the book
62
which like I never opened the book I started to raise my hand in class
63
and be like I don't know what you're talking about I'm completely lost
64
and long story short is I got a 97 in
65
that class long story short is by the end of my undergraduate career
66
I was like obsessed with school I was going with the professors to present research
67
I'd been doing in different states it was a complete 180
68
and it's not like I got my brain changed
69
and swapped out with somebody smart
70
or somebody who likes school no the perception about who I was changed the belief about what I was
71
and what I was capable of
72
that changed those stories we tell ourselves about who we are those matter they do
73
and now this is where the story gets complex right in our day and age is throw social media into the mix
74
My fear for social media is that it affords us the opportunity to stop our self -work at the perceived.
75
You know, I don't have to actually be a writer.
76
I don't actually have to be this or that.
77
I have the nominal data of likes, comments, reshares, all this stuff telling me I've made it.
78
I've done it.
79
But go back to that dangerous mindset video I did.
80
That's a hollow, counterfeit, empty calorie version of it.
81
that Louis L 'Amour quote of we need every man needs a destination I think that's
82
so important right we need purpose we need personal purpose
83
that we're fighting towards not for this person or what
84
that person thinks or this accolade
85
or this award for ourselves I think
86
it matters for us for those who want
87
it some people have just chosen pessimism some people are like no life sucks not worth it
88
but for you if it is worth it I think it's important to be in
89
that struggle and battle for more because we all have
90
that yearning like this empty hunger feeling of this unnamed want for more
91
and i think that's something that's worth exploring
92
and fighting for in a real fashion in a real manner um
93
and making sure you don't just stop at the perceived that you go and truly find what success is to you.
94
Because remember these quotes that we started with, it's what a man thinks of himself.
95
That's what matters, right?
96
Our opinions are the things that determine and indicate our fate.
97
Any success, any failure, any this or that, it means nothing until you assign it meaning, right?
98
We get to decide what everything means for us.
99
So if you want more, hey story's not over you're still here you still have an opportunity
100
so go out and make it happen and fight for whatever it is
101
that you're fighting for and know
102
that the story you're believing right now the story you've always been told the story that's always been reinforced
103
it could be wrong it could be wrong give yourself an opportunity to see
104
that you might be uh you might be wrong i think
105
that's it i don't know i know i didn't say everything
106
i wanted to say on it like i said i've been writing about this stuff all week
107
so i'll probably do another video about uh bandico shaft here soon
108
but in the meantime guys take care hope you're doing well hope you're staying warm and uh see you next time

Gölgeleme Tekniği Nedir?
Gölgeleme, başlangıçta profesyonel tercüman eğitimi için geliştirilen ve çok dilli Dr. Alexander Arguelles tarafından popüler hale getirilen, bilim destekli bir dil öğrenme tekniğidir. Yöntem basit ama güçlüdür: ana dili İngilizce olan bir sesi dinler ve hemen yüksek sesle tekrar edersiniz — konuşmacıyı 1-2 saniye gecikmeyle takip eden bir gölge gibi. Pasif dinleme veya dilbilgisi alıştırmalarının aksine, gölgeleme beyninizi ve ağız kaslarınızı gerçek konuşma kalıplarını eşzamanlı olarak işlemeye ve yeniden üretmeye zorlar. Araştırmalar, telaffuz doğruluğu, tonlama, ritim, bağlı konuşma, dinleme anlama ve konuşma akıcılığını önemli ölçüde geliştirdiğini göstermektedir — bu da onu IELTS Konuşma hazırlığı ve gerçek dünya İngilizce iletişimi için en etkili yöntemlerden biri yapar.
