Shadowing Practice: If you’re ambitious but lazy, watch this - Learn English Speaking with Video

All right, so this is what I like to call the productivity matrix, where you've got essentially two axes.

You've got vision and you have action.

Like, vision is kind of like your ambition.

How much do you know about what you actually want in terms of, like, goal setting and, like, having big dreams and all that kind of stuff?

And then action is, unsurprisingly, how much are you actually doing the work, right?

So if you have someone who is low on vision and low on action.

I call those the drifters.

Not the grifters, they're drifters.

They're just drifting through life.

They don't really have much of a goal or much ambition.

They're also not taking much action.

They're just sort of drifting, drifting in the water.

That is obviously not where anyone really wants to be.

Next up you have the people who are high on vision, so they're quite ambitious.

They have goals, but they're not taking action.

And I call those the dreamers.

They spend a lot of time dreaming and not a lot of time doing.

Then you have a cohort of people that's very good on taking action.

They're good grinding but they don't really have much ambition, they don't really have a sense of where they want to go.

I call those the hamsters because they are on the hamster wheel of the grind but without really going anywhere.

And then the place where we all want to get to of course is the people over here who are the masters.

They are the masters of productivity and getting things done.

They do have a compelling vision that they're working towards, they've got ambition and they are also crucially taking action to get there.

Now this is a video that I would like to target at the dreamers.

Those of you out there who you feel like you are ambitious, you have dreams, you have goals, but you might feel like you are lazy or undisciplined,

like you're not actually taking the action to turn your dream into a reality.

This is my hot take, my honest advice for someone who is in that situation.

So there is a three-step process that I would follow if I were in that situation where I am ambitious but lazy, i.e. I've got goals but I'm not really taking action.

The first one is to clarify what you actually want.

Now there are a lot of people who seem to have ambition, but it's a very vague and undirected sense of ambition.

It's like, I want to be successful, or even I want to be rich.

But they have not actually taken the time to sit down and define what does that actually mean?

What does it mean to you to be successful?

What does it mean for you to be rich?

And crucially, Why do you want those things?

Because essentially what this comes down to is creating a compelling enough goal that pulls you towards it,

rather than that you have to feel as if you're pushing yourself up the mountain to get to it.

You've got like pull motivation and you've got push motivation.

Pull motivation is like, man, I really, really want that thing.

And so naturally I feel, of course, you know, motivation ebbs and flows, but I feel some sense of drive, some sense of pull towards that thing.

Push motivation is sort of like, ah, I should want the thing, or I should want to want the thing, or I really want to want the thing, but like, ah, deep down I don't really care about the thing,

and so everything feels like a struggle, everything feels like a grind.

Now in terms of goal definition, you've got the what, which is like, what is the thing that you actually want, and can we be specific about it?

Because if you know what you want, it's a lot easier to get there, whereas if you don't know what you want, it's a lot harder to get there.

When you say you want to be successful, can we put some numbers on it?

Can we put some parameters on it.

What does success mean to you?

Are you talking becoming managing partner at a local law firm?

Is that your definition of success?

Are you talking about having a lifestyle business that makes you a millionaire in profit?

Is that your definition of success?

What is the thing you actually want?

Because changing the what drastically changes the actions that you're going to take to get there.

And then also, and this is really important and underrated, we really want to be able to answer the question of why.

Why do you care?

What are your reasons for wanting to care about this thing.

Generally, when I speak to people who are in the situation, they actually don't know why they want the thing.

They have this vague sense that they want to be successful, or that they want to be rich, but they've not sat down to really identify and write down, ideally, why does it matter to you?

The more reasons you have for doing something, the more likely you are to actually do it.

And again, here, there is a thing that gets in our way, which is the idea of should.

Shoulds very rarely get you to where you want to go.

The people who should themselves a lot are often the people

that have dreams and goals but never actually take action

or rarely take action to get there because

when you have should motivation you know i speak to people sometimes

that are like yeah i really want to i really want

to get a first class in my degree okay why all right well you know my parents have worked

so hard to get me into this university because i'm studying abroad

and you know i feel like i owe it to them to like get a good grade okay like

but that's kind of a should you don't actually want to do that thing you don't actually care about it personally,

you are shooting yourself into wanting to care about it because you want to make your parents proud.

And for some people, that motivation that like, man, I really want to make my parents proud.

That motivation is not actually a should.

It's like, man, I have this deep intrinsic desire to make my parents proud.

Therefore, of course, I'm going to do the thing.

Those people are not the ones who are ambitious, but lazy.

They're the ones who are ambitious and actually doing the thing

because the compelling nature of the motivation to make the parents proud

or to make society proud or to tick the boxes or whatever the thing might be, is so strong that it's putting them towards the result.

But in your case, if you're watching this video, I suspect should motivation is not that helpful.

For me, should motivation has never been that helpful in my life.

Whenever something is a should, I really should work out.

I really should go to the gym.

I really should care more about this exam result.

I really should dot dot dot.

That is when we get into that territory of like having a goal, but not having the motivation or the drive to actually follow through on it.

So what we're really trying to get at is why, what the hell is the actual core want behind the thing that you think that you want.

Why?

Why does it matter to you?

And the other thing about this is that there's sort of two types of reasons.

There's logical reasons, and then there are emotional reasons.

And emotional reasons beat logical reasons every day of the week.

A lot of us can come up with logical reasons.

I really should get a first-class degree because that will increase my chances of getting a job.

And that will increase my chances of being secure and being happy or whatever.

And that's like a train of logic.

It's a train of logic that also doesn't actually work because, you know, the social contract of society is sort of broken these days where you can get a totally good degree

and get totally good grades and get a good degree and still not have a job.

So like, what's that phrase when it goes sort of like, dissonance?

100

Yeah, where sort of one part of you is telling yourself that like, this is logically coherent and another part's like, no, but it's kind of bullshit because AI and stuff.

101

But like, even if it were true, convincing yourself to want something through logic is unlikely to succeed.

102

Whereas if you can convince yourself on an emotional level that you actually care about the thing, if there's a compelling enough emotional drive behind the thing,

103

that is where motivation becomes a lot more sticky compared to just a chain of logic.

104

Now, obviously, when it comes to things like starting your own business, you're going to want to know how to use AI tools because AI, as you know, is like changing the world.

105

And we as entrepreneurs, we really don't want to get left behind.

106

Now there's all sorts of stuff in the world of AI.

107

And every single week there's like new models being released and new news coming out.

108

And that's where it's actually really helpful to have a foundational grounding in how AI actually works, which is where the sponsor of this video, Brilliant, comes in.

109

Brilliant is a fantastic online education platform that has interactive courses around maths and computer science.

110

I've been using them since like 2019.

111

It's absolutely amazing.

112

I've learned about crypto from Brilliant.

113

I've learned about AI from Brilliant.

114

I've learned about the fundamentals of programming in Python and algorithms from Brilliant.

115

And what's absolutely brilliant about Brilliant is that they really focus on problem solving rather than just like didactic learning.

116

So yes, they're going to give you content and like to watch or read to help you understand the concept, but then they make you solve a problem that involves using that concept.

117

And that just makes the learning environment way more fun, way more interactive.

118

And there's also a bunch of evidence in the world of like education theory to support the idea

119

that instead of just learning stuff, when you were learning stuff and also doing stuff, that makes you far more likely to retain the information and to actually understand what's going on.

120

You can try Brilliant completely for free for 30 days by heading over to brilliant.org forward slash Ali Abdaal

123

So thank you so much Brilliant for sponsoring this video and let's get back to it.

124

For example, for me, a major motivation back when I was a medical student and then working as a doctor,

125

a major motivation for wanting my own lifestyle business and wanting financial freedom was because I saw every single day, I saw doctors who were absolutely miserable in their career,

126

who were like 10 years older than me.

127

And I could see it with my eyes and I could feel like their, their like sense of, just almost like not wanting to be there.

128

And they're having to drag themselves out of bed

129

and like doing another night shift when they're in their forties

130

or fifties and they really just want to be home with their kids, but they're doing a night shift at work.

131

There were some doctors that fricking loved it, but I saw quite a lot of doctors that like seem to have that like, like they've got this enormous weight on their shoulders.

132

And it's almost like I can't even put it into words because it was just a feeling, right?

133

It was a feeling that was just really fucking obvious when I was in that environment every single day.

134

And so seeing that feeling and feeling that feeling of these other people that I respected and looked up to, kind of hating their jobs, made me realise, wait a minute,

135

I really want to become financially free so that if I do medicine, if I continue doing medicine, it's because I want to rather than because I have to.

136

A lot of these guys wished that they could leave medicine or at least go part-time, but they just did not have the money.

137

And so I was like, great, I need to make the money.

138

That was a strong, emotionally compelling reason for me to actually do the thing.

139

Whereas if I didn't have that reason, then I thought I probably should start a business someday.

140

I probably should become financially free

141

because like I don't know in the future maybe it'll help

142

or like then it's just it's just a lot harder to

143

get yourself to do something unless there is a strong emotionally compelling reason

144

or reasons behind why you actually want the thing in the first place.

145

So let's assume you have done step one and you have actually clarified the thing that you want.

146

The next thing we want to do is we want to identify the blockers to the thing.

147

Now this is where it's like okay you know

148

that you really want the thing like you know a lot

149

of people I speak to really want to become financially free and says, okay, cool.

150

I really wanna have a lifestyle business that makes me 500,000 a year in profit.

151

Okay, great.

152

That's fine.

153

Those are the sorts of people we have in our Lifestyle Business Academy, which is like my online business school.

154

More details down below if you wanna check it out.

155

What else?

156

You've clarified the goal and you've got a clear sense of like the reasons why you want the thing.

157

The next thing we need to do is identify the blockers.

158

Like, why aren't you already there?

159

What is stopping you from having already achieved the thing?

160

Now, this is where people often miss this step and they think, okay, I really wanna start my own business.

161

Therefore, I'm gonna discipline myself.

162

I just need more discipline.

163

And discipline is fine in small doses.

164

Discipline is fine for like, once you have a goal and you have a plan, then yeah, sometimes you're not gonna feel like doing the thing.

165

So you push yourself a little bit.

166

You'd use discipline to get yourself to get started.

167

But generally, if you're enjoying the process, as I talk about in my book, Feel Good Productivity, if you're enjoying the process and working towards a goal you actually care about, then you stop needing to rely on discipline all the time.

168

But before we get there, we need to identify why are we not already there?

169

What are actually the blockers that are stopping you.

170

Now there are broadly three categories of blockers.

171

There are blockers that are not in your control, that are blockers that are in your control, and there are blockers that are somewhat in your control.

172

This is the sort of the trichotomy of control.

173

So why do I not yet have that million dollar lifestyle business that I've been dreaming of?

174

Well, I don't have the right business idea.

175

So that's a blocker that's under my control, right?

176

It's under my control to come up with the right business idea.

177

Of course, there's going to be stuff I have to do.

178

I might not know how to come up with the right business idea, but the how is very solvable, right?

179

These days, You just ask ChatGPT or Claude, hey, I'm working towards the goal of a million dollar lifestyle business, but I don't have any ideas.

180

Can you help me come up with the idea?

181

Right?

182

Easy enough, right?

183

This is under your control.

184

Something that's not under your control is government policy.

185

So if you're like, man, the reason I don't have my $500,000 lifestyle business is

186

because the government sucks and they're not doing the things that they're supposed to be doing.

187

Okay, that may be true.

188

And it's also probably not under your control unless you happen to work or your dad happens to be the prime minister.

189

And even then, it's still probably not in your control.

190

Then you have things that are somewhat under your control.

191

So for example, I don't know how I would find customers.

192

Finding a customer for a business is actually, it's a two-way street, right?

193

In order for you to make money, someone else has to give it to you.

194

And so it's not fully under your control that there will be people out there who want your thing.

195

It's somewhat under your control.

196

You can create content, you can do outreach, you can run ads.

197

There's a lot of things you can do, but ultimately someone else has to give you money.

198

And so that's sort of under their control.

199

And so this would be finding customers.

200

And this is just a very simple example, but you essentially identify like, okay, cool.

201

I really do care about this goal.

202

What are all the reasons I'm not there yet?

203

And you'll identify reasons that are not under your control.

204

And then you'll identify the reasons in these three different buckets.

205

And my hot take on this is we want to start by looking at the reasons that are not under your control.

206

So government policy is not under your control.

207

The amount of money you earn in benefits is not under your control.

208

The weather is not under your control.

209

Whether or not you have a physical disability is not under control.

210

There are lots and lots of things that might stop you from achieving the goal that are not under your control.

211

You can't do anything about them.

212

Now in that world, the question I would be asking is, given all of these factors that I can't do anything about, should I still have that goal?

213

Is the goal reasonable?

214

For example, I would say I might have the goal to play in the NBA, in the National Basketball Association of America,

215

but I'm five foot six or five foot three or four foot nine.

216

My height at that moment is not under my control.

217

I cannot do anything about my height.

218

So then I'm like, all right, cool.

219

What does that do to my chances of playing in the NBA?

220

Well, if I'm four foot nine, I basically have zero chance of getting into the NBA.

221

It's probably not going to happen, right?

222

And so I'm signing up for a very difficult life

223

if I'm trying to achieve a goal where there is a systemic factor that's not under my control

224

that I cannot do anything about that will stop me from achieving that goal.

225

Now, in that context, it's probably sensible to abandon the goal right

226

because generally so if you imagine you have a goal right

227

and then you have certain actions now when those

228

when the actions you take are increasing uh the probability

229

that you're going to achieve your goal this is all in alignment

230

and everything feels good when you're playing a video game

231

or something and you know

232

that like every time you hit the boss you're like making

233

progression like you're you're chipping at the boss's health each time

234

you're getting better at learning the moves in the elden ring fight

235

or whatever thing might be like you you can feel the progress

236

that the actions you are taking are actually helping you get closer to the goal, then that feels very good and life is good.

237

And actually, ultimately, whether or not you achieve the goal is somewhat irrelevant

238

because you'll have enjoyed the journey because we as humans enjoy making progress towards stuff.

239

But if there is a systemic blocker in place, like, for example, your height, and now you're taking actions, right?

240

But you're like coming up against the brick wall of the fact

241

that you're just too damn short to play in the NBA.

242

This will feel very, very, very demotivating.

243

And generally, people don't like that.

244

So in that context, I would say, you know, some people would say, hey man, just follow your dreams, just manifest it hard enough.

245

You know, Steph Curry's kind of short and like that proves that it's possible.

246

I'm like, okay, but Steph Curry is also one out of a zillion and you're probably not Steph Curry, right?

247

And he's also not that short.

248

So like, you know, I would say in that context, it's worth just like deleting the goal and doing something else instead because otherwise we're signing up for a lifetime of misery.

249

So that's if there is truly a systemic obstacle that is not under your control, that is truly stopping you from getting there.

250

In which case we change the goal.

251

But for the most part, for the people that I speak to, actually a lot of the factors that are blocking them from doing the thing are actually under their control.

252

And so the trick here is you just ignore the ones that are not under your control.

253

There is a phrase from Jocko's book, amazing book, Discipline Equals Freedom, which is ignore and outperform.

254

A blocker is I'm really worried about what people will think of me if I start posting content on LinkedIn.

255

Is that under your control?

256

Is what other people think of you under your control?

257

Not really, maybe somewhat, but not really.

258

So in that context, you ignore and outperform.

259

You just ignore the fact that that obstacle is there and you work through it and you outperform it.

260

Unless it's literally like a thing that's gonna stop you from, you know, like being four foot nine and playing in the NBA, which is probably not that for your particular goal.

261

You just ignore and outperform.

262

You ignore the category of blockers that are not under your control.

263

This is difficult for people to do.

264

It's so easy for people to just blame stuff that is outside of their control, right?

265

It's so easy for you to think that like, oh man, the reason I haven't started my first business is

266

because dot dot dot the economy or the environment or the weather

267

or the government or insert whatever other thing you want to blame that's outside of your control.

268

It's too easy to do that.

269

It's also not very helpful.

270

When you do that, those are the people

271

that end up having lots of goals and they're never actually taking action

272

because they are focusing on systemic blockers that are outside of their control.

273

So we basically just ignore those things.

274

Great.

275

Now we have blockers that are within our control.

276

And then once we have identified those blockers, we just make a plan to get rid of the blockers.

277

It's really not that hard.

278

I'm like, okay, I don't have any business ideas.

279

Okay.

280

Have I tried asking chat GPT?

281

Probably not.

282

I don't know how to find customers.

283

Okay.

284

Have I watched YouTube videos about it?

285

Have I read Alex Formosi's book, $100 million leads, which is literally a book about how to find customers.

286

Like have I done the sensible things that would help remove this particular thing as a blocker?

287

And this is one of the key, the key things that you learn as an entrepreneur, when you're building a business, that there are always blockers, right?

288

Like I want to grow a business to $10 million a year in revenue.

289

There are certain blockers that are getting in our way as to why we're not already there.

290

One of those blockers is that we didn't have an expensive enough product to sell.

291

Another blocker is that we didn't have enough customers.

292

But like all of these are solvable problems, right?

293

They're not completely outside of my control.

294

They're either fully in my control or somewhat within my control.

295

And as long as someone else has figured out the solution to that problem, that means a solution exists.

296

And now it's just a job of me to be an investigator.

297

This is like a magnifying glass.

298

I'm going to be an investigator and I'm going to find the answer to that particular problem.

299

And generally I find the people that are

300

are the people

301

that end up becoming the productivity masters are the ones who are able to take action to basically identify and remove blockers.

302

The best CEOs, the people in businesses who get paid insane amounts of money are very good at simply identifying

303

and removing blockers.

304

The people that become productivity masters who are ambitious and also take action to achieve their goals.

305

The people I know who are financially free, who are living dream lives where they've got financial freedom, time freedom, creative freedom.

306

A lot of their core skillset is in identifying and removing blockers.

307

And what I find from the people that have lots of goals and don't take any action towards getting them, the people who are dreamers, the people who are ambitious but undisciplined, the people who are ambitious but lazy, is that it's very easy to have a goal,

308

it's very easy to have a vision, but the hard part is in identifying and removing blockers.

309

And if you think of it as, okay, what are the blockers?

310

And then how do I identify and remove them?

311

I find that for me, that is a really, really helpful way of like tangibly improving my chances of achieving a particular goal.

312

And then finally, step number three is once you have identified the blocker and you have identified how to remove it,

313

it will usually require something called work to sit down and do.

314

It takes work to sit down and come up with a business idea for your lifestyle business.

315

It takes work to figure out how to find customers for your thing.

316

It takes work to complete your PhD dissertation or whatever.

317

Everything worth doing requires some work.

318

And then we get into the thing of like, okay, but like what are all the blockers that are stopping you from doing the work?

319

And there's lots of them, but the single biggest one for most people that I speak to and coach through this process is time.

320

I'm just busy, man.

321

I've got other things going on.

322

I've got a job, I've got kids, I've got family, I've got a mortgage to pay, et cetera, et cetera.

323

By the time I get home from work, I don't have any energy, et cetera, et cetera.

324

There's all sorts of problems that come up, all sorts of blockers.

325

Again, it's a case of identifying and removing blockers.

326

But the key one that I found for most people is that, and the simplest hack is literally just, you pick your goal, right?

327

Let's say in this context, it's like my side hustle business or my side hustle lifestyle business.

328

That's sort of like your goal, right?

329

And then the next thing that you do is you basically just block time in calendar every week.

330

Not that hard.

331

It's not

332

that hard to stick a few time blocks in your calendar every single week for you to work on that particular goal.

333

This is literally what we do for students in our Lifestyle Business Academy.

334

Every single week we have a form that they have to fill in and that form asks them, how many hours do you intend to work on your business this week?

335

And they put a number.

336

And then the next question is, great, please block those hours in your calendar and send us a screenshot.

337

And then everyone's like, ah.

338

And we force them, force, like, you know, we strongly encourage them to block the time out in their calendar

339

and they send a screenshot to us because it's kind of like an accountability system as an accountability mechanism.

340

And by Jove, like the amount of students we have that are like, man, just sticking the thing in my calendar has been absolutely game changing.

341

We've had people who in the first month have made thousands of dollars in sales.

342

They stuck the thing in their calendar

343

and it's simple ass stuff that they could have done even if they weren't in our program.

344

But there's something about paying money to be part of an online business school

345

and having a coach

346

and having accountability who's literally just asking you to stick the fucking time block in your calendar every single week

347

that makes people do the work.

348

There are all sorts of other factors, right?

349

Energy levels and distraction levels and focus levels and like whether the kids knock on the door at a given time.

350

But the most basic ass version of this is just making the time in the first place.

One of my coaches, Eric, when back when I was working on my book, feel good productivity.

352

I had a goal of writing the book.

353

And the action I needed to take was spend like 15 hours a week on writing the book.

354

And in my CEO coaching sessions with Eric, he would literally ask me to bring up my calendar

355

and show him where I was blocking the time out to work on my book.

356

And when you do that, there's just no excuses, right?

357

Because you create the container of time for the thing to happen.

358

And then when the container of time comes around, whether or not I sit down to focus or get distracted or like block apps and stuff, All of that then again, identifying and removing blockers.

359

If I realise, man, I get distracted from my phone every time I sit down to write, I just stick my phone in a different room, stick on do not disturb or block the apps.

360

Like those are solvable problems.

361

But the first thing we have to do is make the time in the calendar to actually do the thing.

362

What I find with people who are ambitious but lazy, people who are ambitious but undisciplined, if you look at their calendar,

363

you do not see the time blocks that have been blocked out for the thing that they supposedly care about.

364

One of my former team members and friends, Tintin, He cared about growing his YouTube channel.

365

And so every Monday and Tuesday evening from six to 9 p.m after work, he blocked out to work on his YouTube channel.

366

It didn't really matter what he was doing, whether he was filming or writing or editing, whatever the thing was.

367

But there were six hours in his week that were blocked out every single week to work on the YouTube channel.

368

And Tintin was able to work on his YouTube channel

369

and now has a business where he's making a quarter of a million a year, teaching people how to do YouTube.

370

It was great.

371

But if he hadn't had that time blocked, the Monday and Tuesday evening, where it's like the calendar block reflected his priority.

372

If he hadn't had that blocked, nothing would have happened.

373

And he would have still been, I don't know, working in his management consulting job or like maybe still even working for me, but not having his own business.

374

So Ali, why did you want to hire me?

375

I didn't want to hire you.

376

Oh, bro.

377

The time block method, shoving a block of time in your calendar every single week.

378

Honestly, this is the thing that separates people who do the stuff from the people that don't do the stuff.

379

So right now, if you're at this point in the video, have a look at your calendar.

380

To what extent do you have blocks of time that are dedicated to pursuing the goal that you say you want.

381

If not, it's easy enough.

382

Start blocking time in the calendar for it every week.

383

And you will find that you will make an insane amount of progress compared to

384

when you were just trying to squeeze the time in whenever there's time, because there's never any time.

385

We're all busy.

386

None of us have time in our lives.

387

The people that actually achieve the goals that they set their mind to are the ones who carve out time, who protect the time in their calendar to work on those things and to make them happen.

388

And if you're interested in a video that goes deeper into how to find the time, if you're very busy and if you have a lot going on, if you wanna find the time for whatever you're doing, there's a video over here where I introduce you to my one,

389

six, eight hours spreadsheet and

390

that spreadsheet will totally help you figure out where your time is going

391

and also be able to carve out time for the stuff that matters to you.

392

So thank you for watching and I'll see you in that video right over there.

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.
