      yeah its still sad that people believe your education has to define who you are going to be forever, ive had over 20 years of schooling, 2 different colleges and university. I think i do okay in life personally but i have known many many people who had no time or interest for education outside of what was manditory to them and alot of them are a hell of a lot more smarter then me with no degrees behind them. You make the person you become people.

    Watching this changed my life in 2011.
    I wanted to be a musician so badly, nothing else appealed to me in the slightest.
    I tried and tried and it just never worked out.
    Looking back now, i realised i had the passion for it, but I honestly wasn't that good.
    But I soon realised I was good at talking to people and demonstrating new ideas to others.
    So I became a salesman, and have gone on to make a successful career out of it.
    If i hadn't watched this, and continued to follow my passion instead of what I was actually good at, I would not have been successful and be in a much worse position than I am today.
    Thank you Corey.

    Corey, you inspire me so much more than any other person I've ever had the privilege of listening to. Because of you I work hard to make the music I know and love and push myself to get better every single day. No matter where life leads either of us, I want you to know that I will always respect and admire the things you've done, and will do, and will continue to follow your career until I'm in the ground.

    I wish this video was out when I was in college. I received my AA (2 year degree) with mostly music classes. I loved playing and always wanted to play in an orchestra, or some band that played in packed stadiums. I never could get good enough to go into the symphonic band at my college. Only beginning jazz class. I poured most of my life into practicing and never seemed to get past a certain point. Several jobs later, I'm working for a pest prevention company and love it. I'm pretty good at it too.

  • @blooduhz

  • @rogerj412
    @rogerj412 6 лет назад +1

    I'm 33 and received my Bachelor's a little over 4 years ago. I would not change having the degree for anything but not because I'm truly passionate about the field. The people I met while getting my degree are some of the best people I've even known and I would not give them up for anything, especially my professors. That said my degree is in a field that I honestly couldn't care less about. I thought it was going to be something I could be good at and although I'm competent in the field I have absolutely no interest in it whatsoever. If you are going to college or feel you have to go to college all I can tell you is pursue something you love and are good at. Don't let anyone tell you that in order to be successful you must go to college first; some of the richest men on this planet never went to college , or never finished their degrees.

  • @TheEddieWan
    @TheEddieWan 11 лет назад +1

    I was following him up until the end of this video. When I was 16-21, I wanted more than anything to be a musician. A guitarist, songwriter, etc. After taking a few acting classes in college, I learned that I was more naturally talented at acting and theatrical performance. So according to Corey Taylor, I should be pursuing acting. But what about music? I still jam out in my basement and feel I'm God when I play. He says do what you enjoy at the end of this video. Contradicting his thesis.

    @theomega616 11 лет назад +12

    Do you think she got it wrong on purpose? I mean she is stood in Oxford saying "all hope is gone" which is very grim (such is slipknot) or "all hope is good" (which is what education is kind of roughly aiming for)?

    @colegil2012 8 лет назад +10

    I don't get the reasoning all the way, "Chase what you're good at, not what you love.", and "I'm good at being a vocalist, because I love it." Seems sort of conflicting

    • @Vaisin
      @Vaisin 4 года назад

      I think he's making a kind of oxymoron, what he's saying is that you must look for what you have talent for, but obviously you ''develop'' such talent because you enjoy what you're doing.

    @SuperUltra 13 лет назад

    I think I know what he means. I have a passion for music and when I was a teenager, I tried so hard to learn and master the guitar. I know my way around a guitar, but I couldn't master it... just wasn't me. Then I started drumming and found that it came naturally to me. 10 years of drumming and I haven't looked back.

    I caught that too, but his overall point is good. Too many people focus on improving their negatives instead of promoting their positives. It was kinda funny to hear him say "I do it because I love it" after saying the talent comes first, and love comes after.

    Off topic, however I just finished watching 'Rock of Ages' and couldn’t help but feel that perhaps as Corey’s film debut he could do a musical. I know that sounds insane at first, but think about it-every musical we have ever seen has been geared towards women. I imagine a massive musical that pulls in as many well know actors as 'Rock of Ages’ but includes the music of Stone Sour, Slipknot, and Corey Taylor!! How sick would that be! The first man’s musical-with a wicked story of course!

    everything can be developed, its all coming to neurons and brain (lets set aside the phisical body ), what is he trying to tell , that he is not aware of , is that choose the path that ur brain is developed the most. when u have a goal u want to achieve , it will be done by trial and error until you find the way to do it.
    But there is also a way to reprogramm yourself to love something u dont love at the moment.

    I love how Cory Tailor and Will Smith have two completely different views on life. Will states that talent and skill are often misunderstood - anyone can become skilled if they work hard and dedicate theirselves to what they love. Corey says you should follow your talent instead of your passion, and eventually the talent becomes the passion.
    Both are right!

  • @ACKZink

  • @mediascribble
    @mediascribble 13 лет назад

    @Noxas4 Your comment is exactly right. What he chose as a premise was flawed because it's not consistent. I understood what he meant however. He was trying to get across that you need to evaluate your situation and do what you're good at rather than love at first. He made it pretty clear that he didn't graduate HS so I wasn't expecting a scholar here. He is really trying to help people.
