How to use Blue Lock's ego in real life

  • Goku going Super Saiyan, Luffy going gear 4, Gon snapping and Isagi's direct shot are all examples of an instant, "Monumental event" which changed their lives in dramatic, drastic ways.
    But in real life, this is rarely the case.
    Instead, what's needed is a consistent, long term push towards your goals. Motivation in anime is often shown as a short, intense burst, rather than a long grind as it should be.
    In this video, we look at Blue Lock's Isagi, Barou and Jinpachi and what they teach us about using ego.

    People always expect a lot more when they try something new and realize is not as amazing or as fast as they expected it to be, or a lot of times they just wait for a "perfect moment" where they are feeling really motivated to do that one thing, but if you always wait for this "perfect moment" then you will never change, because a lot of times when i wait for the moment i just realize that it feels really underwhelming and not as great as i expected it to be. Change takes time and it is honestly nothing amazing, you will only get better at something if you start doing it instead of waiting, and you can't ever expect too much from it, which a lot of people don't realize.
    There are a lot of things i try doing every day, and it doesn't feel amazing, it doesn't feel life changing, but at some moments i can really feel slowly getting better at the things i work on and it makes me really proud of myself because of them

      I think I've mentioned this in one of my video, but I'm a firm believer that just allowing yourself to start things without worrying about how good you will be at them is life changing

    Love how you challenged yourself even more after hitting that 1k sub milestone. 30k is obviously a great goal still, but its coll that you've been setting higher goals and challenging yourself! I'll be expecting to see at least a 50k sub count at the end of 2023, and I know you won't disappoint.

    Reminds me of my OC chem lab. I was suddenly thrown into it with way less experience than everyone else stumbling over myself the first week like the biggest idiot doing mistakes no one with a brain would do. I had 4 hours of lectures 6 hours of lab and another 8 hours of protocol, pre prep for next day and working on lecture stuff. I slept 2-4 hours in the first week and pushed has hard as I could, never making a mistake twice, improving on efficency with every passing minute while in lab. I was 5 experiments behind everyone in the first week (workload of 15 hours) and made it all up by doing some insane planning and juggling of my tools which I planned out at the weekend. At the end this 4 weeks of hell I finished 4 days before someone with 3 years of experience as a lab assistant and 1 day before a genius. In the third week while I was sitting in the bus on my way home finally having a breather as I saw light at the end of the tunnel I reflected upon myself for the first time about what happened. It was then that I realized I gained smth "weird". I don't know what it is and can't even describe it. I simply called it a concept with the name "the urge to evolve". Something that can only be obtained when facing something above your skill level in a dire situation and fighting for dear life (my degree). I felt something very similiar watching Blue Lock which is probably why I love this anime so much since I can relate to it as a human but also as a aspiring athlete.

  • @virtuosyc
    @virtuosyc Год назад +3

    Yeah, I agree. It's generally good to challenge yourself and “become the best version of yourself”. But what does that mean, exactly? It's fascinating though because I also think there are different values and priorities that can be reviewed here.
    I'm not trying to be condescending, but at the end of the day, it's all just a game. You can try to excel at all kinds of things, and whatever is popular will be something people want to be good at. But becoming “one of the best” is an inherently destructive mindset because you have to crush the competition and make other people unable to achieve their dream. Just imagine if everyone wanted to be a great football player, the talent would be great, but even some of the best would never reach their goal as *there can only be so many pros.*
    And I also agree, like generally taking care of your life is obviously a good thing to do, but Blue Lock is taking this to a whole nother level. This entire mindset of “become something great, or you're worthless” is pretty extreme to the extent, that I think it may be morally questionable. For example, what about the people that have handicaps, is it their fault for not being able to play football and become a pro, although it's their dream? And even the players that dropped out of Blue Lock have value, they still can do something else and help people, probably even more than some athletes chasing a ball. Remember, there have to be losers for there to be winners.
    Just imagine this drive and motivation of those football freaks would carry over, and think how we could fix the world if everyone had the same enthusiasm. Imagine a manga like this about feeding third-world countries. I know it won't happen though because a game is more fun to watch I guess.
    Anyway, I personally sometimes think Blue Lock is way too serious, like some dialogues are edgy af and so over the top. But this may also be why there will never be a “Blue Lock” in real-life since it would just be ridiculous. In the unlikely case, I'm wrong, I would love to see how a real-life version of this kind of experiment would turn out, though.

    • @LessonsFromAnime
      @LessonsFromAnime  Год назад +1

      Somehow missed this comment, and yeah the topic of what counts as the "best version of yourself" can get pretty deep, I think it's up to us to decide what we want that to be.
      And of course, as you say, only so many people can succeed, which is why as mentioned in one of my other videos I think we should learn to realise that we don't need to be the best at something to enjoy the benefits of improvement.
      And yeah Anime is always a bit over the top haha, it'd be boring if it it wasn't imo

    Great video, and interesting take on ego.
    Also I'm not hating but I've noticed that you tend to start a lot of sentences by slurring about 5-6 words together and it makes it hard to pick up on the point you're making. For the most part I could understand based on context, but I found myself needing to hyper focus on the video or turn on the subtitles even as a native English speaker. I know it could be a way of speaking but I figured it would be helpful to know in the future.
    Other than that, really good video and looking forward to more lessons to take from anime :)
