this 68 year old man is super interesting he has more

than 1 million cigarettes in his basement he learned how to

read at age 45 he was lost in the seed for

two months he went to jail he was an alcoholic

and now he's picking up cigarette butts on the streets of

his island why well let me introduce you to the most interesting guy I met in my travels.

In the remote Galapagos Islands in Ecuador, I found Migicho.

Hola, mi nombre es Migicho y no debo estar vivo.

Migicho lost his mom to an earthquake three days after he was born.

And because his father was so poor, he never went to school.

But then a rich man promised his dad to school him in the Galapagos Islands you know the islands

that are surrounded by nothing only to abandon him on a boat in the middle of the ocean.

To survive Migicho decided to become a fisherman and he started to believe in life but life was not done with him.

At 35 while he was on his boat his engine died

and he was left alone to survive in the middle of

the ocean for 77 days then once he got rescued back to ecuador he was sent to jail

because he couldn't pay back his debts and when he was released he got depressed and became an alcoholic for 12 years

many people would just give up on life at this point

but that's not what megichu did he turned his life around

like magic at age 52 he learned how to read by himself

so he could train his mind he started eating healthy he

learned how to jog how to bike how to lift so he could train his body

He became so strong that he ran a marathon at age 68.

I can run 20 kilometers.

That's crazy!

And he didn't stop there.

Migichu fell in love with nature and wanted to clean his island.

So he started collecting cigarette butts on the streets every day.

After 5 years, he collected 1 million cigarette butts and he turned them into works of art that look like this.

These sculptures made him famous on his tiny island and around the world,

and thousands of tourists like me are inspired by what this guy has become.

At age 52, this guy started living.

It goes to show it's never too late to turn your life around and inspire the world.

Megichu started at age 52, but maybe you can start right now.

Before we continue, I need to show you something cool from the sponsor of this video, Gentspark.

Everyone now is telling me to use AI, AI, AI.

And I do use AI, but there are so many different tools and getting them to work together is just exhausting.

But then a friend from Silicon Valley showed me this AI agent, Gentspark.

It's an all -in -one AI workspace.

Let's say I'm launching a new service.

First, I use Second Brain plus Super Agent.

I ask, look through my recent emails, meetings, and Slack messages, identify the clients most likely to need this new service explain why

and create a simple outreach plan

now i know who to talk to and what to show

so i go straight to genmail and use email skills

because it can do cold outreach research bulk replies

and batch handle my inbox and now i need something to send with the email

so i go to design to create a launch kit for

this new service i give it my brand assets a reference image

and it can create a ui prototype a poster an html animation

and even a product demo video research becomes outreach outreach becomes a pitch

and it all happened in one workspace so

if you want to try it yourself use the genspark link in the description below

when you register through the link you also get free credits

to try it out let me know in the comments if you need the prompt and setup guide.

Okay, now back to the video.

this chef has not eaten in eight years every day she cooks food

but she does not eat it

because this is her food who is she why doesn't she eat

and how can she survive without eating meet loretta hi nasdaily

i'm loretta aka the normal foodie loretta grew up in england

and she had a pretty normal childhood sometimes she had stomach problems

but she still ate food like most people in fact she loved food

so much she even became a chef until one day

when this happened and then

when i was 18 i woke up in unbelievable pain every

time i ate it took doctors years to figure out what

was wrong with her they kept telling her to change her diet

so she ate this and ate that but nothing worked it was a mystery

and she was suffering and then her life changed forever i found out in 2015

that i was unable to eat like a normal person she has ehlers -danlos a rare syndrome

that causes gastroparesis and basically it means she has a paralyzed stomach

see when we eat food our body activates the stomach to digest it

but for loretta it doesn't do that it does not activate

and the food does not digest this is very painful

and it means i cannot eat

or drink anything no food no drink not even water how does she survive without food and in water.

Instead of eating food, I use this bag.

This tube goes into my heart and then nutrients are fed into my bloodstream.

She uses this bag for 18 hours a day, every single day.

It's filled with a liquid that gives her everything she needs every day,

like proteins, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins, minerals, and electrolytes.

This bag saves Loretta's life, but it also means, technically, Unfortunately, she never has to cook ever again.

She could quit being a chef, but cooking is her passion and she didn't want to stop.

Just because I can't eat doesn't mean I can't cook.

So she just kept cooking.

Now, I know what you're thinking.

How does she cook if she can't taste the food?

Well, turns out she cooks with her nose.

the way I cook now is by utilizing my knowledge skills and intuition

and definitely smell to be able to still create delicious recipes

at the end of cooking I always get family friends to

taste the foods to make sure the balance of flavors are right and it's ready to eat

has a positive attitude about recognition

but still her life is not easy at this time there

is no cure sometimes she even has to use a wheelchair

and she gets many infections from changing her tooth

but she is determined not to give up and to keep sharing her story remember

your current situation isn't your final destination we should never let

100

obstacles get in the way of our passions thank you loretta for sharing your story

101

and to everyone watching share this video with someone who needs

102

a reminder to never give up the guy you see next

110

Oh, and his kid doesn't wear shoes either.

111

So why does he do this?

112

10 years ago, Gobind heard about a movement called Soul Men.

113

The idea?

114

Go barefoot to raise money for underprivileged kids in Indonesia.

115

So he wanted to support them and decided to never wear shoes again until there are no more underprivileged kids in Indonesia.

116

So far, the movement raised $1 million in donations.

117

You look at him and you think he's just a hippie.

118

132

The only thing that matters is the mind.

133

According to him, we can only be at peace when we don't live in distractions.

134

This monk lives an extreme life,

135

But you don't need to be a monk to know that our life is full of distractions.

什麼是跟讀法？

跟讀法 (Shadowing) 是一種有科學依據的語言學習技巧，最初開發用於專業口譯員的培訓，並由多語言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。這個方法簡單而強大：您在聽英語母語原聲的同時立即大聲重複——就像是一個延遲1-2秒緊跟說話者的影子。與被動聽力或語法練習不同，跟讀法強迫您的大腦和口腔肌肉同時處理並模模擬實的講話模式。研究表明它能顯著提高發音準確性，語調，節奏，連讀，聽力理解和口語流利度——使其成為雅思口語備考和真實英語交流最有效的方法之一。
