    Damn this was enlightening. Only a minute in and the points are just mind-blowing.
    As a fellow grappler, would you say that BJJ is more of a kind or wicked environment?

    • @JoelSnape1
      @JoelSnape1  Год назад +2

      GREAT question. I actually thought about addressing this in the video, but thought it would be confusing for non-grapplers. I think BJJ is more 'wicked' currently - yes, it's a sport where the rules are clear, but it hasn't been practised at a high level for very long at all compared with eg piano, chess, or even tennis, and it's still evolving.
      For instance, John Danaher has been able to be very successful partly because he looked at other sports (wrestling, judo) and saw weaknesses that changed the metagame (leglocks, wrestling). That process is going to slow down over the next few years I think, but the path to progress in BJJ isn't anywhere near as well established as it is in chess. (also, once you throw in other applications, eg self-defence and MMA, it gets even more complicated). Thanks for asking - glad you enjoyed the video!

    Absolutely with you on this - the more experiences we have, the greater the perspective. I often found with "instrumentalist specialists' that, traditionally, they could only view music through their instrument. Having a broader experience set is key!

    Hi Joel! Another banger, thanks for this. An issue I’m currently dealing with is a general flatness on what to do, I don’t know if I’m overwhelmed by choice but I really struggle to think of goals at the moment. Do you have any ideas or content on finding what you want to do?

  • @secondthought2
    @secondthought2 Год назад

    Hey man, I got a piano question.
    I just got started, a week into it.
    Went thru Alfred's basic basic ( halfway thru until legato starts)
    Some took me like 20-30 times to play well.
    I'm not scared of boring exercises for sight-reading. I've heard some of them are way more effective for improving sight reading than playing thru pieces or learning them.
    I'm looking for exercises where I can play at least 50% right( let's say 1 bar at a time) from the get go and maybe after 10 times I get it right completely.
    With your experience do u have smth in mind. A book with those boring exercises. I feel like working on a piece even an easy one would be a waste of time.

    • @JoelSnape1
      @JoelSnape1  Год назад +1

      Hey man, I would say if you want exercises I'd try something like Czerny's Beginner Exercises does this job? But also just playing simplified arrangements is a good shout.

    Joel, do you have any videos that cover the topic of easily loosing interest?
    I find whenever I try to learn something new, I start of incredibly enthusiastic but after a couple months practice and learning will seem like a chore.
    Is this normal for everyone and if so how do people overcome it?

    • @JoelSnape1
      @JoelSnape1  Год назад

      Hmm I don't have a specific video about this, but check out the 30 Day Challenges video (which talks about plateaus) and Best Book on Learning (which talks about how to break skills down). I might make a video on this but I think it comes down to having a good balance of process and performance goals: process is what gets you through the day to day, and achievable, regular performance goals get you through the longer term. For instance, on piano it helps me out to feel like I've done my practice for the day, and maybe upped the tempo I can play 4-8 measures with - and then longer-term, I stay motivated by having pieces I want to work on.
      Of course, the most important thing is to be doing something you really want to do in the first place - if you're learning a language or an instrument because you feel that you SHOULD, rather than because you WANT TO, it's a lot tougher. Good luck!

    Have u thought about neuroplasticity side of things when it comes to learning a new skill like a language or an instrument as an adult.
    Let's take an adult and their own version of younger themselves.
    If we think about neuroplasticity as a coefficient (multiplier) of how fast and effective the learning process is
    Then we have "time" which is the same, the more time we put in the faster the progress is
    So both neuroplasticity and time fall into the same category when it comes to efficiency of learning.
    Now let's get back to the adult and their own version of younger themselves.
    Let's say both of them are trying to learn a musical instrument.
    Let's say the Time being Put in Is equal.
    Both of them have no stress nor responsibilities ( they live in a perfect world) practicing 25-30 hours per week average. Genetics being obviously the same. The only difference is neuroplasticity of the adult which should be lower than of the child's. Tho there are also things adults can do to improve that plasticity ( fitness/other skills/and drugs)
    So now everything comes down to neuroplasticity. Would u say that the difference of their progress wouldn't be as dramatic as some people want to believe.. maybe twice as fast as a child at best? Since Hours being put into learning being equal , that makes sense. Doesn't it?
    P.s I like most of your content
    And I can relate to u, being that I'm also trying to be versatile. ( English is my third language that I learnt in my twenties, also been powerlifting for a decade) I'm 29 and about to take on the piano journey.

    • @JoelSnape1
      @JoelSnape1  Год назад +1

      Yeah, I think all else being equal a child would still learn slightly faster than an adult. But I do think adults can mitigate the effect - maybe you've already seen my video on how adults can (sometimes) learn faster than kids!

      @@JoelSnape1 also I've noticed I have a harder time starting something new, but once I've gotten a grasp of things, when the puzzle starts coming together, then the progress really kicks in. Had it happen with languages. First 500-1000 hours are always quite challenging, then there always comes a point where everything suddenly starts making sense more and more. Breaking point or smth. Altho I'll admit 1000 hours usually takes less than half a year for me if I'm serious about whatever it is I'm learning
