Recently I attended my 21st cubing competition, which also marked 4 years since I started speedcubing. FOUR YEARS. Had they been a total waste of time, or did I actually gain something?

“If you lower your expectations, you’ll never be disappointed”
Some wise words to live by right here.
i just put my expectations to negative.
Yessssssssssssss
I disagree, and strongly at that
Increase your expectations
When you fail (if you fail) Keep trying until you get it
Ironically this is how i figured out my first cube on my own.
once that happened for me i applied this rule to everything.
Life went a lot better for me from that point on
Never lower your expectations because you just end up getting nothing in life or at best LESS IN LIFE
but not as wise words as "can we retake?"
I am 32 and just bought a speed cube and while it’s only been about a month and I am learning so much… so many new algorithms, I sometimes get frustrated that it feels like it’s taking me longer than ever to solve a cube. Your video just showed that even in your 30s, it is possible… Thank You! The fact that your kids share the love of cubing with you, is a testament to your success.
Keep going you will get better!!!
Do Roux! Very few algs required. I hit 27s after a couple months. Fun to discover your own tricks and have random moments of inspiration mid-solve
The reason it’s taking longer could be the speed cube your using. If you don’t already have it, I suggest getting the Moyu RS3 M 2020, it’s only about 15 dollars and is a great budget cube!
@@Speedcuber22 that’s actually the one I am using… I did a lot of research. I think it’s just because I am learning finger tricks, algorithms, F2L… it’s just a lot to process. Especially F2L and PLL… JPERM has been a huge help!
@@Starshine777 i hit sub 20 secs one month after cfop
"speedcubing is about the people" Bro you really got me crying over the ending to this video. This community really is phenomenal. I am so glad to be able to call you my friend, and thankful for everything you have done for this community in the last 4 years
Incredible story telling! As someone who has always been self conscious of their times, I'm very glad you made this video. It's a lesson that I've had to learn time and time again, but hearing another content creator talk about this issue was very reassuring.
Thanks, I wasn't sure how to tell this story but I knew it was an important one to cover
Tingman Tingboy is better then you
It is about a year since I bough the book "How to solve the cube" for my kid. I did not know it was going to be this great.
In the beginning we struggled with learning the beginners methods. My son solved it in 5 minutes, and I was so proud of him. Then I beat him and solved the cube in about 2-3 minutes. That was the last time I beat him. He then solved it in 1,5 minutes and my daughter also solved it faster than me. We started in a local speedcubing club and we got starstruck when on of the world top 30 best cubers are there too. It was incredible to watch him practice his skills.
In April we participated in our first competition. I got the last place, but I really loved it. My kids loved it too. Last week we was in our second, and it was the best day of the summer so far. It is not about winning, but all the nice people and all the excitement for a good result.
Thank you for all your videos, I really love them❤
I learnt to solve a cube when I was 41 which is 4 years ago for me as well and I'm definitely still improving on the events that I practice but going backwards in the events I don't. Actually it's very hard to keep improving in every event, it's easier to focus on your favourite 2-3 events.
I think that's where I'm making things hard for myself - I'm trying to do well across the board. Might have to take your advice.
Tingman's dad joke was his second BNF that day🤦🏽♀️
who can solve a cube that watches tingman videos?
It is not a waste Tingman. You have brought so much happiness and motivation into peoples lives. We do not know what is we would do without you and your family to brighten up our day.
I'm in my 40's and just started in the new year. Getting my kids into it has been a joy!
Well I guess it depends if you take a 2 year break like me 😋
Oop-
From competitions right?
I took a 01 yr break from cubing (pyraminx) I did 150+ solves
Hi
I took a 2 week break from 3x3 to focus on my 2x2 skewb and pyraminx
No way!!! We started cubing at around the same time! Congrats on the improvement! I definitely agree that the people and the community is what makes cubing special. I have made so many lifelong friends because of cubing and I'll probably cherish those memories more than the memory of a huge success in a comp. If the community wasn't what it was, I probably would not still be cubing.
I started speedcubing last year, age 49. Your story inspires me. My first comp left lots of room for improvement, but cubing keeps my brain sharp and I haven't had a hobby this fun in a long time. Skewb is my favorite :)
What an emotional video
Definitely not ruined by some guy dabbing in the background during Tingman's heartfelt monologue
I just got into speed cubing a week ago and your videos are a big reason why! Since I'm just starting my journey, I wanna say your videos are a huge inspiration and motivation for me to keep going. Every day I pull up one of your videos or vlogs and just practice with it in the background. Thank you so much for being honest with your experiences!
Just saw this comment, thanks so much for your kind words!
i cant wait longer
😭
amazing Its just so cute how you have your little speed cubing family and there all getting so good! I really enjoy watching your content and it makes my day!
So exited for this video! I love yout vids Tingman ❤
I love how it's always wholesome. Most of the channels ive watched have gone from wholesome videos to lame, but tingman has wholesome videos forever
An amazing journey to witness! Heartwarming! Will be sharing this with my two daughters to inspire them to never give up too. Thank you! X
Turning a bunch of strangers into friends is the biggest win and doing something that brings you joy can never be a waste of time. PS: Tingboy is wrong for once, there are no bad dad jokes only bad 2x2 DNFs 🙊.
I love these types of videos. It's like your speedcubing journey video
This video made me cry lol. Definitely your best video yet. Truly inspiring
I've been cubing for over 11 months now, but I've always been improving. When I don't see improvement for a long time, this video will be great advice
I cant wait till it release cause we love Tingman
Felix in the beginning 😂😂 What are you talking about? 😂😂 Great video. And motivational not only about cubing but it applies for everything
this is such a good video! tingman, ur the best!
“If you lower your expectations, you will never be disappointed”
-tingman 2022
You have really made me motivated!!! Thanks for spreading wisdom and showing us that everything happens for a reason!!
i started cubing since I was 7 it has been 6 years and it was until this year that I got sub 15. Good job for all of this u have done. (btw i cant get a sub 7 pyraminx even in my dreams)
Awesome video. You put so much effort into these videos and they're awesome.
Thank you 🙏 I sometimes feel like I'm putting too much effort into them and wonder if it's worth it. So I appreciate comments like these.
Ofc it’s worth it! It brings joy to the whole world just watching your vids! Love them!
Tingboy is a hilarious coach!🤣 He should be in the next Rocky movie.
You've got to take credit for something else: consider how well Olor and Tingboy are doing today, then compare their skills (if any) from four years ago.
I promise you that Tingman did not pay me to say that! 😂
This video was so amazing and you couldn’t have uploaded it at a better time, I wasn’t able to watch the premier because I was at a comp, and I had some good solves but to be honest I was really disappointed with the majority of my solves but this video really helped remotivate my spirits and remind me of what cubing is really about! And you showed it in a Beautiful way. Thanks for all you have done for us Ming!
7:20 haha that is just FANtastic.
PRIEMERING 3:30 A.M. FOR ME LMAO
As a now 35 year old highschool teacher Christian man who’s first comp was the 2018 nationals in Canberra. I have always looked to Tingman as someone with a very similar journey to me. And whilst I have never met you in person, (I don’t get to comps very often) I’ve seen you as an inspiration and have admired your improvement over the years. Mine has been somewhat small and subtle too over the same time given the levels of time and commitment we both can give being fathers and having full time jobs. Thank you sharing your journey throughout the four years through your thoughtful and truly incredible videos!
Wow we have very similar journeys indeed! I guess I’ve spent a lot more time cubing than I normally would’ve, given work and family, since this is my main focus on RUclips now. But it’s weird how improvement can still be so slow or fast at times. Hopefully we’ll get to meet in person one day.
great video! i love watching you content. everything was so true!
Great vids Tingman!
tingman 40 years later: "I am now Tingeld!"
tingboy 40 years later: "I am now Tingman II"
You get a lot of bad results then it suddenly comes happens in my first competition. I kept on getting 50 second solves, then I suddenly sub-40’d a solve, I made friends who are twice as fast, and some are slightly faster than me.
you are amazing Tingman thanks alot for youre content
Thanks Tingman - great video as always - certainly has been an amazing 4 years, glad to count you as a friend.
The best times may still be ahead! ❤
“Yes but I think you’re more reckless.” Gosh Tingboy is spot on!
Always say it on ur vids, but u r the most wholesome, not just cubing but any channel of yt! Keep it up!! Love Tingfam ❤❤. Btw, when is the sale on daily puzzles ending?
Thank you! Monday is the last day of the sale
@@Tingman Thanks!
The best joke was when Tingboy said "That was a Bad Dad joke". 🤣
Absolutely love this ❤
This is a great video everything is good about this you put so much effort you earned a sub great joke and the ending got me crying
5:47 when he zoomed in on his scs sweater I got a scs add
I really hope your 4 years have not been wasted. This video is incredible! (Can you pleaz do a pyraminx tutorial?)
Thank you! And yes, a pyraminx tutorial is on my list of videos to make for 2023!
@@Tingman yay!
some of your recent videos have seemed kinda not worth the watch but this one was definitely worth it. You are really good at story telling.
"your just getting more reckless". That made my crack up so much 🤣🤣
Love your content , so inspirational
2:56 HER FACE LMAO
Such a wholesome ending there! Love from Scotland!
I used to cube back in the 80's when it first came out. Picked it up again about 3 or 4 months ago. Using a GAN 12 (GAN 11 was my first cube when I picked it up again). The MoYu Weilong WR Maglev with magnetic core mod is good too if you like heavy cubes. Wish we had these way back when. Average sub 40s now (22s PB full solve, no skips). Learning full OLL (28 to go). I just cube or learn OLL while I'm watching youtube (like now) or any down time. It's fun. Gives a sense of accomplishment at every stage.
I started around the same time as you, used to average about 45s. I'm awful at speed solving now, averaging 2 mins. Hopefully with time things will get better.
A year a go I realised I was horrible,
Now, I am averaging about ten seconds faster at everything(including 2x2 btw)
THANKS TINGMAN!!!!!❤
Tingman you’re the best and keep it up💪
Because of your Videos i started cubing with my daughter. Im am 43 now...and we have sooo much fun!!!! Thank you for your not wasted time !!!
That’s great! I love cubing with my kids
I like how now you have a message in each of one of ur vids!! really helps us kids😄😄😄😄
Beautiful ending. Someone's chopping onions here. Well done on your progress and your friendships.
Great video and you are spot on... it is about the people. After 42 years of cubing I feel I know this well!
42 years!!! That's amazing!!!
@@Tingman Yup... first cube was either Christmas 1979 or (which I think it was) Christmas 1980. I worked out how to do it somewhere in 1981 and during 1981 I had a very lucky solve of 32 sec. Basically it pretty much skipped the last layer as I recall. Back then I used to do the Cube completely differently and UPSIDE down to CFOP. By the end of 1982 I was consistently under 60 sec. I have said this before somewhere on RUclips, I therefore claim an unofficial world record of 32 sec in 1981... considering that the first ratified record set in 1982 was 22 sec! Happy days indeed. These days my F2L is so slow in recognition and my fingers are pretty slow too but have had a lucky sub 15 sec single and average about 50 sec. Yer... I know... frigging slow! Ho hum... but at least I have a pedigree to chat about! All I want for Crimbo is a GAN 13M maglev - as I am not really worried about my two front teeth these days! 😂😂😂😂 Merry Christmas to you and the Tingkids and Tingfam!
I'm 56 and solved the cube in about 3 or 4 weeks when it first came out in the UK. There were no guides, no online solutions or any kind of help in solving the cube. Everything was done with pen, paper and hours of frustration. I recently picked up cubing again for the first time in decades. Although I can still solve the cube, I've forgotten many of the methods I created over 4 decades ago. I average around 2 minutes a solve at the moment, far out of your league, but I'm hoping I can halve that time in the future. I've treated my self to a Gan 356 XS and a Gan 356 i Carry, the XS currently being my favourite. All I need to do now is practice 🙂
I ❤ Ur comp Videos!!! Its so cool and ist inspired me to Go to a comp
Was it the gan 23432? There are a lot of gans.
This video is at 5 in the morning I can't wake up early
Good joke club here!!!! Also, love the video, love you guys, keep improving and spreading positivity anywhere you are because people need it.
Great content!
I love this story and the ending, even though you have become more "reckless" lol!! ❤ Great video, Tingman!
Nice speech at the end!!!! Congratulations
"happy four year anniversary".. *coNFusioN* 😹😹
Ending was really powerful, so thrilled to have met you, and hopefully will see you at oceanics
i get motivated because of your videos! thank you
PS i just learned pyraminx
The community is certainly the best thing about speedcubing. Also, Tingboy is so wise!
Good job tingman and the plot twist at the end 😂
I am the guy who judged you on your 3x3 second round solves. You were so kind
Awesome Video!
Sometimes, you just have a bad day on which you can't perform as good as on any other day. Even if you do bad on a single day, it does not mean that you became worse.
The funny thing about this video is that one of the links at the end is of Tingboy, with an arrow pointing to a solved cube and text "he broke his record". 😂🤣😅🤪😊👍
AWESOME VID!
Timgman, always thinking on the human side and touching the hearts. Nice!
Beautiful story telling. Loved it
Thank you
I made it into the vlog!!! I have achieved my life’s main goal!
Four years ago I was a sub-18 roux solver, now I am a sub-25. What happened?
Well I started a PhD and I just started solving less and less to point I was solving the cube once a month. I forgot most of my cmlls, my times got worse and if I couldn’t get a sub 18 solve I would get dissapointed.
A couple of weeks ago I decided to retake cubing, re-learned my cmlls and I have managed to get several sub -17 Ao5 but this time I am taking things slowly, do not want to pick bad habits like last time.
I wanted to thank you for your videos, I am 31 years old and sometimes I feel that I am already old to practice speedcubing but I take inspiration from your videos and hopefully next year I will go to a comp and improve my times!
Thank you Tingman
I understand the frustration of not improving. I've had to learn to cube just for the fun of it instead of expecting to improve. I practice what i need to get better, and if i improve, great. But if not, I'll still love cubing.
Hi tingman great solves either way
Just keep on going I love your content
The ending was heartwarming
wooow the storytelling style is so cool here; im getting documentary vibes
I started learning cubing about 2 months ago October 1st and after a week I got my first 59 second solve using beginners with ru u perm and adjacent corner swap and diagonal corner swap I got an avg of 40 about 2 weeks in and my first sub 30 near the end of that week I got a 17 person best during the end of that period I learned almost all my plls a week after and and then I learned my g perms when I a week after I got a 12.371 pb getting a lucky pll skip I learned learned almost all the olls excluding the dot plls I still have trouble with 2 plls with similar executions and got a recent pb of 12.362
Vitural cubing app
During the period of learning the cube I remember I had a Rubik’s cube app from 6 years ago and I saw that there was a vitural cube option when I was averaging 34 it took about 2 weeks to get my first sub 1 minute on the vitural 3x3 cube I had avou 1.3 turning speed because you have to use thumbs to swipe the layers and double layer turns were not possible in the app I used I used u perms and t for most the the first month was when I how to execute beginner method at the time and got my first sub 40 4 days after and 2 weeks I got so close to a sub 30 solve eventually I got a 29 second solve then a 26 then a 23 then to now a lucky pll skip of 15.47 in my vitural cubing
Regular cubing
I have spent around 166 dollars in cubing I’ve bought a gan 365m gan I 3 tornado v3 then Rs3m 2021 in that order the orders were spanning around a week or so apart and a few days ago I bought a 2x2 4x4 and 5x5 and am currently waiting to receive them I’ve been learning yau on my vitural cube app using the 4x4 option and I currently avg around 3.3 minutes and had a best of 2:13.18 minute solve on that cubing option. I have done over 9 thousand solves on my gan i3 and plan to do more during my journey of cubing best ao5 avg is 16.729
6:37 Max Park, Fahmi, and Ruihang: ok
Hey tingman! I am just about to get a new cube so what do u think is better? The MoYu RS3 M 2020 or MoYu RS3 M Super with the normal core they give. Please help lol
Ting man is so cool I love his vids
8:44 best joke ever 😂😂😂
nah bro u got me in happy tears over here in sydney
I love your family man
Tingboy especially ❤ 💙 💜
1:07 you can see a young riley dexter who is now 3rd in australia!
This is very relatable, because some of the PR's i broke yesterday were standing for about 4 years haha!
4 years is the magic number!
Hi tnl
Beautiful conclusion at the end !
Man, i want to come over to australia for a cube copetition.
SUCH AN AMAZING QUOTE AT THE END
