Luyện nói tiếng Anh bằng Shadowing qua video: this will make you disgustingly consistent on YouTube

I have one objective in this video and that is to make you disgustingly consistent on YouTube.

Consistency is the only thing that matters.

When you are consistent, you will inevitably get better, produce better videos over time, which is what will get your YouTube channel and your business thriving.

If you're not consistent, that simply won't happen.

And so consistency is the thing between where you are now and where you want to be.

And in this video, I want to help you get that.

I last night I had food poisoning and I was woke up at like 11am ran to the bathroom

there's a reason why this is cool I'm making you disgustingly

consistent all right this morning I woke up with a massive

headache feeling the the consequences of of what I'd eaten the night before and all day today I've just been feeling rough.

Right now I'm doing a 30-day challenge on this YouTube channel to post every single day

and I'm on day 27 and I was really considering not shooting a video today

and I came up with a plan in my mind.

I could make a YouTube post to my community on the community tab

and just say something like yeah guys I'm you know just

I'm going to delay I'm going to skip this day

because I got some food poisoning etc etc

and I'll catch you tomorrow it will be 30 days

and 31 days no worries it's all good

and everyone would have been like that's totally fine cool

but there was a single thought that got in in the way of

that action which was well I made a promise to myself to do this in 30 days

and I also made a promise to you guys to do this in 30 days

and part of the reason why I started this 30-day posting challenge was actually to start building some self-trust.

And I knew that if I let a bit of a headache and not feeling 100% get in the way of self-trust,

I was actually going to damage my self-confidence rather than build my self-confidence.

And when you start seeing your commitments and specifically your commitments to YouTube and your YouTube schedule in this way,

then it really changes everything.

It gives you a lot of leverage and power beneath your desire for action.

And so what I mean by that is the way

that confidence in yourself is built is by saying you're going to do things and then doing them.

The way that you destroy self-trust is say that you're going to do things and then don't do them.

How are you going to believe in yourself if you have a track record, a proven track record within yourself that you say you're going to do things

and you commit to them with your heart and soul

and then for whatever reason life gets in the way and you don't do them.

I'm not diagnosed with ADHD, but I have a lot of the symptoms and I suspect I make a pretty good case study.

I constantly forget things.

I struggle to stay focused in conversations.

When I was a kid I had a very bouncy, crazy energy.

I'm a very creative person and I'm really shit with a calendar.

And whilst this can give me and I'm sure a lot of other ADHD type people quite a lot of magic,

there's a certain superpower that comes with ADHD, this sort of hyper focus, this hyper passion for things.

What it also leaves in its wake is a series of commitments that you didn't actually follow through on.

And part of the reason why I started this challenge, as I said, was to start building that self-trust

because I was starting to feel more and more

that I was saying I was doing things

and then not quite doing them and there are things

that started small you know even like saying I'm going to put a mirror up in our house this week

and then not doing it for two months

to something that could be pretty big like saying I'm going to post on YouTube for 30 days

and then halfway through another thing comes along

and I say oh you know what actually this is an experiment

and I ended up you know something came along

and I did something new and it wasn't working anyway

so I'm going to stop and these excuses are

so easy to rationalize they're so like our minds are incredible at coming up with great excuses to ourselves.

But the more that you do that, the more this insidious breaking down of self-trust happens.

And so when you are making your next YouTube videos, just be curated in what you commit to.

There's a mic drop.

Curate what you commit to.

What I mean by that is, the best way to start building self-trust isn't to suddenly just magically start fulfilling on everything

that you say that you're going to do.

It's actually to start limiting what you say you're going to do.

There's a reason why I didn't say I'm going to post on YouTube for 365 days.

It's a pretty big commitment.

Maybe one day I'll be able to say that if I want to say that, but I started this challenge with something that I knew I could do.

I knew it was going to be tough, I knew there would be moments of resistance, I knew I'd have to push through, I knew at some point shit would go down

and I'd get ill or somebody else would get ill

or something would happen that would throw me off or try to throw me off.

But it really doesn't matter because I know that I can make 30 days happen.

And so with your YouTube schedule, whatever it might be, I'm begging you,

just say that you are going to post for this amount of period, this consistently, and just do it.

And do it for yourself before anyone else.

you can say you're committing to an audience

or you're committing to growing your business but

if you are somebody like me who can battle with this

self-trust with this am I going to actually do this then set something

that you think you can do or might be a little bit of a push

and then just do it to start building that relationship with yourself where you start having a proven track record of,

oh yeah, remember when I said that I was going to do that thing and then I did it?

Oh yeah, you remember when I said I was going to do that really hard thing and I did it?

You remember when I said I was going to do that impossible thing and I did it?

And when you make these commitments, try to make them process-based things.

There's no use in setting a goal that says, that says, oh, I'm going to hit 50,000 subscribers on YouTube by this date.

that's not something that you can control.

What you can control is the output, the work that you do, the work that you put in, your process.

And so that's what I wanted to leave you with.

You know, today I didn't feel like making this video

but as a commitment to myself I'm doing it

and what ended up happening just to give you the the

full breakdown was it's around 4 p.m 5 p.m now the

series of events was pretty simple I was going to make a video

that I planned out a few days ago that was more about speaking

and and speaking on YouTube and that kind of thing.

And then I looked at that and I was like, I cannot film that today.

I cannot film that five step framework that I was excited about two days ago, but now that just looks overwhelming.

And instead I asked myself, what is true for me right now?

And then this video idea just came to me.

And so I trudged up this hill.

100

Like I very slowly put my camera in the bag I made sure I had my microphone, I put my bag on, left my house, slowly walked up here,

101

slowly walked up the hill, slowly unpacked the camera, slowly put the tripod down, slowly put the camera, and then all of a sudden,

102

here I am and I'm filming a video.

103

It's those series of baby steps that often gets you in the right place.

104

And it's not paying attention to the feeling in the moment,

105

doing what you commit to do anyway and then being proud of yourself afterwards.

106

Well, I'm proud of myself now.

107

I'm going to go home and have some rice.

108

See you guys later.

Phương Pháp Shadowing Là Gì?

Shadowing là kỹ thuật học ngôn ngữ có cơ sở khoa học, ban đầu được phát triển cho chương trình đào tạo phiên dịch viên chuyên nghiệp và được phổ biến rộng rãi bởi nhà đa ngôn ngữ học Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Nguyên lý cốt lõi đơn giản nhưng cực kỳ hiệu quả: bạn nghe tiếng Anh của người bản xứ và lặp lại to ngay lập tức — như một "cái bóng" (shadow) đuổi theo người nói với độ trễ chỉ 1–2 giây. Khác với luyện ngữ pháp hay học từ vựng bị động, Shadowing buộc não bộ và cơ miệng phải đồng thời xử lý và tái tạo ngôn ngữ thực tế. Các nghiên cứu khoa học xác nhận phương pháp này cải thiện đáng kể phát âm, ngữ điệu, nhịp điệu, nối âm, kỹ năng nghe và độ lưu loát khi nói — đặc biệt hiệu quả cho người luyện IELTS Speaking và muốn giao tiếp tiếng Anh tự nhiên như người bản ngữ.
