I agree that the basics are undermined!! Recently, I came up with a metaphor about people learning to type slow and properly versus as fast as possible without technique. Although the former is significantly slower at the start, they will be faster and more consistent than the one who rushes without any foundation. Once you master the basics, doing something more advanced takes less effort because you have already taken care of the tedious things. Anyway, I’m glad RUclips recommended this video!! The idea that the journey is the skill makes me appreciate the tedious basics even more. I myself can be impatient when repeating the same basics over and over again, but this reminded me of its value!
The algorithm decided to drop this video on my recommended & I am glad it did. What you said about practice giving you insights that you simply cannot find in books or from people, and about how 'the journey is the skill' was new to me & made absolute sense. I like how you seem to bring your full authentic self to your videos. I hope you know that your thoughts have added value to another person's life today. Keep going, you are definitely going places. ❤
This video is quite optimistic for me. I am 44 and I think in my "generation" we wouldnt be that insightful and humble at your age. I think smartphones and social media are damaging society but its also obvious that something so special and positive IS happening with young people. Best of lucks with your channel
i work with software engineers, they like moving fast and breaking things, but that's the problem, breaking things. not understanding the fundamentals and when something breaks they don't know even where to start, they begin apply every fix they find on the internet and make the issue even worse.
ha that’s an interesting perspective, i have a few software engineer friends(4) and that seems to a common issue. I think their systematic way of thinking makes problem solving approach a lot different to what other people do. I think their ways aren’t necessarily ineffective but definitely wouldn’t go about life in that trial-error-way all in
There is this peer pressure i can sense!! Thank you for the reaffirmation!! Extremely reassuring! Will be walking that path only no matter the lack of sustainability as there is never actually an alternative to Right way of doing things
Master the study, the study is always something basic. The second phase is forget what you know and just do. And than what you will do will not be basic if you just follow yourself
I really appreciate your insight!! It might seem obvious since it’s an approach we’ve been recommended to take over and over and over during the course of our lives but I guess it’s a different story when you experience it for yourself. If I didn’t try and fail and succeed myself the advice would have just kept going over my head lmaoo I wish you the best and for you to reach the places you want to be!❤
we acknowledge so many things but implementing them is the hard part. happy to hear that you keep standing up after failures, i think thats the only thing that really matters. thank you and sharing the same positive energy right back at you
This video was sooooo good! You just got a new sub! This is a topic I’ve been thinking about & that I’ve tried to convey but you did such a fantastic job!!! ❤
Yeah, in art people want to immediately innovate on things they can't even do properly. In writing they want to discredit story structure without even knowing what it is, in music they ignore melody etc etc.
Some constructive criticism; the rapid flashing text on the screen creates difficulty paying attention to your speech and video. It takes away from your quality of content. There are closed caption options for the hearing impaired, and it usually displays whole sentences or more, instead of individual words. Keep up the good work!
The only way to be exceptional at something is through sacrifice. Otherwise everyone would be exceptional. And that sacrifice is whatever gets in the way of the utmost consistency in practicing, improving, showing up to and learning more about your chosen subject. You have to go to lengths that other casuals are willing to go to and that's harder than it sounds. And this will, by definition, not leave you much time to also be really good at much else - that's the other sacrifice. Being exceptional is not always worth it depending on your situation but if you do want to be, you HAVE TO be prepared to sacrifice comfort and an easy going 'balanced' lifestyle.
i dont think you are wrong, but having this perspective could be overwhelming. Our whole life is a sacrifice. Walking into a new door is inevitably leaving all of the other doors behind. From what i gather your take on exceptionality is taken in the context of other people, and that is a valid perspective to have. However, me personally, i think we ourselves are the only people we should be compared to. No one has lived the life that you have lived, and the only person you can outperform is youself in the past. If you keep pushing yourself out of your internal limitations on daily basis, i think that is the way of living an exceptional life.
@@meltemorujova yes i would say that's a solid mindset you have, but the word 'exceptional' inherently has comparison to other things in its meaning. I mean exceptional doesn't mean anything if not in relation to something else that is less or more "exceptional". But yea we should do most things because WE like them and it makes US happy. But everyone, everyone cares 'somewhat' what others think and we all inevitably do things to impress others and it's not a bad thing, especially if we actually enjoy the thing too. So the main takeaway, and my view, is that do things because you enjoy them, but don't just stay in your comfort zone your whole life. You owe it to yourself to really do something special with your life that someone else couldn't necessarily have done. Something that made your 85 years on earth unique, meaningful, impactful. And THAT will only happen if you push yourself to your limits with a given hobby/skill/carreer.
im sorry but where's all the creativity gone on youtube. the algorithm just shows vlogs, drama, video essays, news, politics, podcast after podcast after podcast. where are all the painters, musicians, filmmakers, 3d modelers, designers, engineers, artists?
bla bla bla .. in the end she gets pregnant does and archieves nothing and life is over, she has big mouth in this age but she is not to blame the time is not there yet

The journey is the skill. Great insight!
"The journey IS the skill." LOVE THIS!!

i'm really happy to hear that!! everything has it's negative and positive side effects, so we have got to stay hopeful
Damaging women's brains for the most part
I’m also in my 40’s and here I am learning from this new generation ❤
“the journey is the skill” beautiful
To be exceptional, master the basics.😅
This is the kind of videos that should have millions of views. Thank You so much!
that’s so sweet, i’m glad u feel this way ❤

Thank you for sharing your thoughts about living an exceptional life by doing basics things well. You have given me a lot to think about.
What a phenomenal message.
Such wise words. That was beautiful. It's like you have to know the rules before meeting the exceptions.
This came at just the right time for me, thank you
thank you for this. came in my recommended just when I needed it. see you at the top
There is this peer pressure i can sense!! Thank you for the reaffirmation!! Extremely reassuring! Will be walking that path only no matter the lack of sustainability as there is never actually an alternative to Right way of doing things
You said in an amazing way!
Being ordinary is being the punk these days
polarities meet each other on their extreme ends, making a full circle
Please do not ever remove this video i need it
Excellent video, Meltem!
Master the study, the study is always something basic. The second phase is forget what you know and just do. And than what you will do will not be basic if you just follow yourself
i love the take on the second phase. relearning is probably the hardest part of learning
Your smile is beautiful!
Lots of love for your channel!
Thank you so much!

that is such a common experience actually

you put my thoughts into words, thank you!! I agree fully
😎
Quite insightful
How do you be basic?
It's all vanity in the end.
live laugh love
im sorry but where's all the creativity gone on youtube. the algorithm just shows vlogs, drama, video essays, news, politics, podcast after podcast after podcast. where are all the painters, musicians, filmmakers, 3d modelers, designers, engineers, artists?
very general yappin

She's nothing more than an edgy pseudo-intellectual person who utilizes cool-sounding buzzwords to try and make a few points (and fails miserably).
Jesus can change yr life ❤️
bla bla bla .. in the end she gets pregnant does and archieves nothing and life is over, she has big mouth in this age but she is not to blame the time is not there yet
sending you good vibes mans!
U good bro?
