I woke up from a dream this morning about my life going

and ending in a different direction if I would have made choices in the past

that I might have made differently knowing what I know now in hindsight

and I emphasize maybe because

if I were to have made those choices in the past

I wouldn't be who I am now with all the knowledge

and wisdom and etc and

that inspired today's topic where a lot of times we like to put blame

and look at our past selves in a negative connotation because of the information and knowledge that we know now.

We can kind of see things from a grander perspective. And two things.

First, I don't really think that's fair because it's a fallacy.

You don't, sorry, you would never have known what you know now

because what you know now is a direct result of the experiences that made you, the experiences that you went through.

So being that person in the past

and going through all of those quote-unquote mistakes is what made you who you are now.

And no matter if you have a positive or a negative perspective of who you are now,

whatever positives will come as a result of your life will also come as a result of those quote-unquote mistakes.

and number two there's actually no point there's no going back

in time there's no changing the past there's no inserting ourselves

and what we know now into the past to change what we would have done

and I know that you may even know this logically

and still there's a bit of resentment

and anger there for past you for you know quote unquote just do it

that way and it's so obvious and it's so clear to you now, but it's not clear to you.

It wasn't clear to you back then.

So what do we do with this?

What do we do with this entire framework?

How do we recognize the past?

And how do we recognize our negative perspective of it and who we were in the past?

And how do we fuel that into making better and more concise decisions that we will be satisfied with

in the even deeper future.

And I think it comes down to the very same model that I talk about often, and that is fear.

You know, look back at those negative choices that you made or, you know, the perspective you have of those mistakes that you made.

Why did you choose the way you did?

And don't frame it in a way of positive and negative.

Simply put, and be brutally honest.

Why do you think you made the choices that you made?

And of course, the obvious answer is that's what you wanted to do at the time.

That was, you know, the clear thing to do at the time.

But what were the emotions fueling those decisions, even if they were unconscious?

I think a lot of times we can look back

and we can see past us was making decisions in the very same emotions we are trying to conquer now.

but maybe they were unaware of the sort of trap that those emotions had on them.

And again, ask ourselves, why do we want to go back in the past

and change what has occurred and change the mistakes that we made?

What are we seeking from those past experiences?

What are we looking to relive as a result of not making those mistakes?

And whatever it is that we want in the past, why can we not have it right now?

Why can't we not have it in the near future?

What resenting the past version of ourselves does, it does a lot of things, but it does a couple very main things.

And that is, number one,

it sets up the sort of perception that we can't have those things now.

So in a way, when you resent past you for making those mistakes, making those choices, why?

Because if you were satisfied with your life right now, you wouldn't be showing resentment to your past self.

You wouldn't be showing resentment to the past at all.

This all comes back to our current framework of who we believe we are right now.

Because we believe we made those mistakes because we believe that we missed out on certain experiences.

If I would have chose this, then I would have gotten that and that would have been so great.

But we can't change the past.

So what can I do now?

What can I change within myself to open myself to having those things right now or in the near future?

Another brutal truth is that the version of yourself

that you're looking to become doesn't hold anger at the version of you right now.

So for long as you're holding anger at your past self, you can't be that version of you.

Again, we only show resentment and we only sort of ruminate on the past

because we believe we missed out on experiences that we are incapable of recreating now.

And when I mean recreating, I don't mean with the same people.

I don't mean in the same environments.

I mean the same experiences emotionally.

Because that's what it comes down to.

We can categorize certain experiences and scenarios by the way that they impacted us emotionally.

And that's what we're seeking now.

so maybe you're craving that connection that you think

that you missed out on years ago and you're beating yourself up

or rather you're beating past self up your past self up in a sort of rumination perspective way

when in reality you should be working on yourself right now to open

and align yourself with the possibility of experiencing that again becoming a more confident empowered

an anxiety-free version of yourself now

so that it is easier to find that thing that you are now reminiscing and feeling nostalgia upon.

Past you didn't know any better.

And actually, if past you did know better, maybe it would have been for a worse alignment.

Maybe who you are now and the transformation you're undergoing right now is all part of the process.

Maybe you needed to be that person in the past

and maybe you even need to be the person that you are right now

to become the version of yourself that you've been seeking and wishing for all along. And that's the thing.

We have to realize the pointlessness of a lot of the things that we do.

What is the point in holding anger for our past selves?

What is the point in trying to sort of imagine the ways in which a lot of things could have went differently?

What we should do is focus on the now, focus on what is ahead of us.

if we're getting caught up and we're trying to move through all the patterns

and the forest of what could have been we're going to miss the very fact

that by changing our state of being by freeing ourselves emotionally

and mentally now we can experience even better whatever we think

we missed out on whatever we think past us ruined we can experience even better now

use that anger that you feel towards past you and alchemize that into motivation into being free in the present

because what we're seeking isn't in the past what we're seeking

isn't going to be found by analyzing what went wrong it's going to be found in observing

and doing what feels right now And again, we can actually take this back to our very relationship with our thoughts once again.

And that is why are we letting, just because now the storyline that the thoughts are presenting you with is more enticing

100

because it's triggering a feeling of what could have been.

101

And, you know, that's what I learned.

102

And if many of you have experienced this before where you have a dream

103

or you have a sort of imagined state where you're just imagining how things could have been.

104

it's almost as if we start to experience, I don't know, maybe 3% of what the actual experience might have felt like.

105

And we should use that as motivation to experience the actual thing.

106

Sometimes we get lost in the imagination of it all.

107

We get lost in imagining how different it could have been,

108

how amazing it could have been without even realizing that all we have to do is change our state of being, is change our relationship with thoughts,

109

is not listen to fear, don't give in to anxiety, feel emotionally free, practice being confident, all of these things, they can lead us to the very thing we want.

110

They could lead us to experiencing even better.

111

We have to stop looking outside.

112

We have to stop looking to the past.

113

Look right now inside of yourself.

114

What can you do right now to get closer to the very thing in which you seek?

115

What can you do that is actionable?

116

And what can you do internally that would free you in a way, in an emotional and mental way where that thing is not so difficult to find.

117

And don't lie.

118

Don't lie to yourself.

119

There's no point.

120

There's no point in being dishonest with yourself.

121

The more brutally honest you could be and the more brutally aware you are of the very things that you're avoiding, the quicker all of this can happen.

122

The quicker the transformation can happen, the quicker you can become a version of yourself that is anew.

123

And a quick thing, a quick caveat.

124

When I say a version of yourself, you're not being or acting like a different person you're you

125

if anything you are more you than you've ever been

126

because you're not allowing fear anxiety defense mechanisms

127

and trauma all these different things to play a factor in the personality system of who you are

128

so you're not acting like a different person you're acting like you

129

when you walk into a room of crowded people you walk into it with the same confidence you do

130

when you're walking into a room with your family or your friends.

131

That's what I'm talking about.

132

It's not about being someone else.

133

It's about being a different state of being, us.

134

That was just a quick caveat.

135

And yeah, it comes back to our relationship with our thoughts.

136

It comes back to just because the thoughts are decorated in a certain way.

137

Now they're showing you what could have been years ago.

138

That for some reason now we believe that entertaining thoughts is going to be somehow good for us.

139

It doesn't make any sense.

140

And I truly do think that we can mourn the past while moving forward.

141

We can allow nostalgia to exist.

142

Nostalgia isn't a bad thing.

143

It's a reminder of what we want in life.

144

it's a reminder of the happiness we once felt and

145

that we're capable of feeling again in different people in different places in different situations

146

things flow very easily probably as you remember in the past you didn't have to do much work to meet

147

that person you didn't have to do much work to have

148

that friend group you didn't have to do much work to enjoy yourself

149

but that's the nature of life at first many times

150

in our younger years we are handed things you know you

151

don't have to go to a great inconvenience to experience the things

152

that you want but in that inconvenience in

153

that difficulty we find ourselves we find who we truly are

154

we aren't our parents kid we aren't our brother's brother our sister's sister we are the very identity

155

that we're giving life to and again we have a choice in that identity So when we look to the past,

156

when we're holding anger at our past selves for not choosing quote-unquote correctly, we have to realize something much deeper.

157

What do we believe we missed out on as a result of those choices?

158

And why do we feel as though those opportunities are gone?

159

Is it because there's different people in our life now?

160

Is it because our environment is different now?

161

Accept the cards and now play them differently.

162

Play the cards differently.

163

Open yourself. Be confident.

164

Don't allow this past version of you to convince you that you are still that version of you.

165

Because that's what it does.

166

When we imagine how good things could have been and we get lost in that sort of imaginative state, we start to detach that from reality.

167

But what we really should be doing is detaching from the imagination side of it and saying, okay, reality, I'm going to present you with a confident,

168

willing, brave version of me an open-minded version of me, and I'm going to leave the rest to you.

169

You start dancing, and the reality and the universe will dance back with you.

170

That's how it works, but you have to take the step first.

171

You have to go out of your way.

172

You have to do what is difficult.

173

You have to inconvenience yourself.

174

That's the whole point.

175

Is walking outside in public with confidence difficult?

176

Yes.

177

Less difficult for some, more difficult for others, but the answer is yes.

178

Is putting yourself out there difficult?

179

Yes.

180

Same situation, more difficult for others than others.

181

Sorry, I don't know why I just said it like that, but you guys get the point.

182

So it's not about what we're missing.

183

It's about why we believe that we can't experience that same thing that we're missing now.

184

And it comes back to our identity and who we believe that we are.

185

We miss the past and we miss the certain facilities of the past often

186

because we believe that the emotions experienced in those prior relationships, in those prior environments and situations is now gone just because those people or those situations are gone.

187

But that's not the case.

188

We have to be open to feeling that same happiness, that same enjoyment out of life from different sort of vessels.

189

We have to allow environments and people to surprise us.

190

We have to allow ourselves to enjoy the company of different people, of different environments, of different situations.

191

Open yourself and see that as you open yourself to newness, to the new facet and to the new version of who you're becoming and your newer reality,

192

that you will become that person that you've been seeking.

193

Because when we hold that anger towards past us, we're still aligning with that version of us.

194

A better way to look at it is, everything in the past has happened for a reason to create who you are now.

195

You can even say every single moment has led up to you listening to this very word right now.

196

And that the actions you take as a result of hearing this, the confidence and the first step you take after hearing this recording,

197

everything led to that moment.

198

And what's crazy is all we have to do is take that step, is leave our comfort zone, and it makes it all worth it.

199

It makes it all worth it.

200

all that nostalgia, we are prisoner to it for as long as we decide to be.

201

Not because the trap and the cage is real, but because we have suddenly decided

202

that who we were in the past

203

and the decisions we made in the past are now defining who we are for the rest of our life.

204

And that sounds kind of ridiculous and silly, doesn't it?

205

To believe that the past

206

and the experiences that we once held onto so tightly are the best that there will ever be.

207

And I'm going to say this not to scare you, but as a wake-up call that if you allow it to be the best it would ever be, it will be that way.

208

Now, at this point in your life, it's going to take initiative.

209

It's going to take you stepping out of your shell.

210

It won't be easy, but it will be extremely fulfilling.

211

That nostalgia that you feel from the past, that was a taste.

212

You got that for free.

213

You probably didn't have to do too much to earn that.

214

When we're young, a lot of things are sort of handed to us.

215

A lot of experiences, relationships are handed to us.

216

But now as we are older, as we're growing spiritually and psychologically, and even practically in our lives, we're going to have to go about things in a way

217

where the things that are happening in our life are a direct result of our choices.

218

Separate those two things.

219

Think about all the things in your life that happened sort of naturally unfolding.

220

You know, maybe even the college you went to, the school you went to, the job you have.

221

Maybe even those choices.

222

Even though it seemed like a free choice,

223

it was relatively influenced very heavily by environment and by a sort of quote-unquote common sense next decision, next step.

224

And that's okay.

225

Just observe how those things are sort of naturally unfolding choices

226

and how many of the choices in your life are a direct result of you going against the grain

227

and making a choice solely because that is what you want to do.

228

For example, if you take a solo trip to another country

229

and then you are sitting in that other country looking at the ocean, that is a direct result of your own free-spirited will and initiative.

230

And that's an amazing feeling because we take life into our own hands.

231

Maybe that nostalgia, maybe that anger that you feel for past you is

232

because you didn't feel as though you had a choice, a real choice, a real say in the matter.

233

And what will anger at our past self do?

234

Absolutely nothing.

235

probably, at best, keep us relatively stagnant, and at worst, keep us suffering and miserable

236

and not open to new happiness and new experiences that may be even better than what we experienced before.

237

We have to see things from a grander awareness.

238

Everything is an invitation to evolve.

239

Everything is an invitation and a mirror to look inside of ourselves to influence our reality now.

240

That's the whole point.

241

That's the grand message that we're being showed.

242

Everything you feel is an arrow, is a stop sign saying,

243

look within yourself, change the circumstances of your life as a direct result of changing your inner state of being.

244

Changing your relationship with fear, changing your relationship with anxiety, all of your emotions and all of your thoughts.

245

How much say do you have in your life?

246

again when we are satisfied with our lives we don't hold anger at past us

247

so if we want to align and we want to become

248

that version of ourselves that we're looking to become we must seek

249

and not just seek we must experience the things

250

that are going to make us satisfied

251

and i'm not saying as in give all of our power to desire

252

but i'm saying aren't you curious why that desire is in your heart.

253

And that desire is the very reason why that you are holding that anger towards past you.

254

A healthy balance of desire and detachment is needed.

255

And in this case, detach from what you once had

256

and curiously investigate the desires of what you want now that you believe will bring you satisfaction.

257

Experience those satisfactions and see if it fulfills you in a way

258

that even invites you to experience your inner state in a more grand

259

manner because that's what it is when we get what we want

260

when we achieve the things

261

that we've been looking for a lot of times it's not bad the desire to want those things isn't bad

262

because it invites us and it gives us more room

263

and space to observe

264

and become aware of our own mind to evolve there's nothing wrong with checking a couple boxes first

265

and then allowing the sort of open field of spiritual progression and emotional freedom to follow.

266

Whatever it may be, use that nostalgia,

267

use those dreams of the past to awaken to a power that you have literally right now.

268

And by changing the way you approach life, you change the way the opportunities in life approach you.

269

That's it for today, guys.

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.
