    I'm so impressed with your presentation. You have an amazing way of accumulating, organizing, sorting, and applying knowledge that works for you, and releasing knowledge that doesn't work for you. I've learned quite a bit from your presentation. 2 big takeaways...
    1. Be mindful to watch when you take in garbage and not allow yourself to take it in. I've been trying to study how the subconscious works and how we can know what is in our subconscious. It would definitely be much easier to watch that which has access to us in the first place and that which we allow in. I really like this statement, and you pointing out the relevance of impact that garbage has on us.
    2. How to speed up the process of life to discover what we want from life. Realize that eliminating that which we don't want is just as important as discovering and trying to uncover that which we do want.
    I've taken so many notes from this video. Very inspiring and educational.... applies to each of us in our own life in general.
    Thank you!

      Wow, thank you so much! The fact that you've noticed all of this and seen value and taken notes already tells me you're an intelligent person who knows what they're doing!
      I'm curious how you found this video? Are you studying engineering?

I don't want to spell out my last name here. You messaged me on that platform. I own a coffee shop. I found you there. I'm impressed with your pathway and your intelligence!

    Recently I've been writing an autobiography about myself. What I've come to realize is that the life experiences that have been most useful are the ones with outcomes I least expected. Typically these types of experiences where the most unpleasant and demotivating. But in these "failures" where the most useful lessons I've learned about myself. I also came to realize that the most stultification in my development came from waiting until I knew exactly what to do next before I acted. Years where waisted simply waiting around. It seems learning is supposed to be painful, and once you realize this you can simply endure it instead of stumbling around in confusion as to why things didn't turn out exactly as you planned. I'm attempting to get into an undergraduate program for electrical engineering this fall and these videos have been very informative.
    Thank you for the videos. Will definitely be sticking around for more.

      ​@@alithedazzling the iteration part and "do it first then decide"
      i usually spend a lot of time deciding what should i do, should i do this or that or which one is better for me , should i do a job or go for a phd but in reality actually there is nothing perfect. i should go and do and find out if its good if not then iterate.
      another thing i like is good input = good output . To make good decision i need to monitor what im feeding my brain. the social media part......that i should use it for productive purposes.
      and your planning list for each year in undergrad and grad school. very nice, loved it.
      your video motivates me a lot .❤❤❤ from bangladesh

      On the bright side, easier classes make for a healthy GPA and better scholarships. I shamelessly took intro to theatre despite being a professional theatre/event engineer.

      Honestly I used to as well, but then I changed my mindset about it. I now go in to have fun, not to "present". So I try to only focus on what I talk about and try to deliver it in an entertaining way. Keep in mind I've been teaching for few years so there's tons of practice there as well.
      Glad you like the videos!

    18:30 step 3 is so important. I try to tell my family about stuff im working on and the answer is usually "oh okay sounds cool, whatever you said." (They're supportive, but in terms of immediate family only my uncle and i even touched college.)
