But I guess that's a discussion for a different place.

talent is a pursued interest. -bob ross

[@xandex69]

Respectfull extremely wrong. "if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its life believing it is stupid" - Albert Einstein.

[@Flick_._U]

​@xandex69 I think you may have missed the point unless I am mistaken. A fish can't change what they are, but people can change, the whole analogy of Albert Einstein is that people make the wrong judgements without questioning if it was correct, but the case here is unrelated to that. The main point here being that talent is just another pattern in our brain able to perform well in an action, pursuing an interest means you pursue that interest with the goal of also looking to improve in it and master it, that also means you change the little patterns in your brain to match similarly to those who are talented

[@xandex69]

​@@Flick_._U Yes I think you are mistaken, In both understanding what I am saying and what Einstien was aswell. Talent is the natural potential for a skill, idk what definition u came up with. "the whole analogy of Albert Einstein is that people make the wrong judgements without questioning if it was correct" Do you understand what "judgements" are being talked about and why and how they can be "wrong and right" ? The judgement's are about someone's "talent" and the "right and wrong" is if the said person is being judged the right way which is their strengthens or the wrong way which is not their strengths or is a weakness. Idk what u think humans are but we can't just breathe under water or grow wings to fly. (maybe ur a secret alien amongus) Thats why its useless to judge us in that aspect, what we could be judged for our our strengths as in our intelligence. With our innovation we created planes and submarines that let us bypass our natural limit. An easier example would be a 6'5 black dude is always gonna be better at basketball than a petite asain lady. But the same same petite asain lady is always gonna be better at gymnastic. Sure the dude might do a back flip and the lady might land a 3 pointer but they are always gonna be the best in their own fields that employ more of their strengths.

[@Flick_._U]

@@xandex69 but my whole point was in intelligence, because we have neuroplasticity not literally being able to change our body and for lungs or wings, talent is just another stat that some people happen to have higher than their other traits, like how someone's talent can be that it's easier for them to pick up drawing because they naturally already have the built in aspect of perceiving 3d space in a 2d plane but some people can build that up and eventually gain the ability to have those same brain networks as yhe talented person, physical traits that can't always be trained aren't a talent, that's called being gifted or being lucky, you can't categorize intelligence in under the same categories as physical constraints, though I see your point, being that people make the wrong judgements about how they believe being able to jump 4 feet high at the age of 15 is considered talent, instead of being lucky or gifted As well as in the case of Bob Ross, he mainly meant what could be changed in your mind, you can only draw with your mouth but how your brain works with the tools and the strokes you make with them ultimately are determined by what absolutely can be changed, you think there ar people in this world who are missing 75% of their brain only for it to line their skull and still be as intelligent as someone living life normally with only an iq of 85? Yeah surprisingly there are some

[@xandex69]

​@@Flick_._U Kinda irrelavant if your point was just about intelligence cause that completely unnecessary overspecification when we are talking about the blanketed term "talent". Regardless you are still wrong because the same logic applies to Intelligence specifically too. Our intelligence is arguably the most adaptable thing in the universe but it's still no where near perfect. People are still born with certain affinities for certain field and everyone has a limit for the same. Like you said maybe some average kid can train 10 years to be as good as a child prodigy, but you are ignoring the fact that, the prodigy can also train for 10 years and widen the gap even more. "Hardwork beats talent, unless talent works hard". "physical traits that can't always be trained aren't a talent, that's called being gifted or being lucky, " Im just gonna act like you didn't say this 💀I think you might misunderstand what the word "talent" even means. The google definition is "natural aptitude or skill." Natural attitude includes everything from physical traits such as height and weight to even mental traits such as fast thinking and problem solving. Nah u misunderstood my point again. What I, einstien and this video is trying to say is if you as a 15 year old could jump that high then try getting into playing basket ball or high jumping rather than filling excel sheets at a desk job. Idk what ur talking about in the last para, but even if bob ross meant what u think he still is wrong. You are born with a certain amount of talent in everything mental or physical, It essentially just means your visible potential. Pursuit or training is not going to change that talent, just reach closer to it's limit. Which is why it's important to judge in which field you have the most talent work on that rather than following something impossible for you to noticibly excel at. If I had to give an analogy, talent is like a vessel of water, hardwork is the process of pouring water and "MERIT" is all the water inside the vessel. The more u pour the fuller the cup is gonna get the more water but after a point the vessel is gonna get full and pouring more water is just gonna go to waste. The though reality of life that everyone needs to accept is that some people's cup of water are just bigger and better shaped than others.

Now here is an idea for a follow-up video: How to identify your strengths

[@xandex69]

Real

[@maleycrush3033]

yes please

[@Goiaba308]

This is bullshit

[@builderdog3875]

Just try things until you find things you enjoy, don't decline options until you've truly decided you don't like it from experience.

[@Flick_._U]

Honestly, that should follow through with natural inclination, mainly because you start off trying to identify your strengths but by starting with a habit, like what you did today or how good you felt when you wrote down a few simple words or managed to hold a conversation with a girl and have a cup of coffee with them. What I'm saying here is that one must document their own daily lives as so it can be easier to identify your strengths via the results of your actions, it also means exploring areas of unexplored interests, like drawing or making music that way weaknesses can be obvious, another important thing is to nit overthink or overanalyze your strength and weaknesses as just like in psychology, it's better to document what is objectively there because if you were to ask a patient about what think they know is wrong with them then chances are they will overthink it and convolute the aspects of themselves that weren't even there in the first place and throw therapists off, that doesn't mean you shouldn't analyze but understand that understanding strengths are determined by how much you can document and how consistent they will be, if they recur a lot, then you have both a talent and a strength

[@eliasstrandell]

For people in the comments saying "What if my strength is procrastinating?" Guys, you missed the whole point of the video. If you are procrastinating, then you´re probably working against the current by doing something that isn´t what´s best suited for you. However, it might be something worthwhile, i dont know your situation, but procrastinating becomes a whole lot easier when you do stuff that isn´t "natural" to you.

[@auraezahra]

Starting med school was a huge challenge for me. I’d been homeschooled and pretty sheltered during my A levels and suddenly pushed into an environment where everyone was more hardworking, more competitive, ruthless was one of the worst experiences of my life. I found that due to my background, my concepts were clearer and i knew most of the content in depth than my classmates but they still managed to get better grades than me even though i was pushing myself to the limits to study whereas they managed to seemingly breeze through it. Finals rolled by and i got a 3.4 cGPA (which isn’t bad, but i was still disappointed). I’m naturally curious and i used that to my advantage in the second semester. Instead of mindlessly scrolling, i watched interesting videos relating to my courses. I studied in small chunks but did it consistently, using spaced repetition and everything else youtube told me to do. Now its midterm week again. i’m finding out that my consistency makes it so much easier to revise and exams are a breeze (and actually fun). I already know everything in and out - and extra content too to cover up if i forget anything. I wasn’t disciplined (i watched a shit ton of anime and read over 16 books in the last 3 months) but consistent. Moral of the story consistency > discipline any day. Keep doing what you need to do, even if its only for 30 mins per day and you WILL see a difference.

I think that I have been naturally gravitating toward "choosing which tests to take, so I will only be graded on my strength" for most of my life. The danger in that is becoming "perfectionistic" in a procrastubatory way, avoiding work that threatens my self-image of strength. At the end of the day, you've still got to keep making progress, and progress involves trial and error. Errors are not failures, they're necessary outcomes of a varied assortment of trials. Being intrigued and challenged and motivated by those errors along the way takes a specific mindset.

This makes me think about Wu wei - a concept in Daoism that refers to effortless action. It means to act without forcing, to be in a state of flow where our actions come naturally and without effort. When we're in this state, we're completely present and our actions align with the natural flow of things. By acting without force, we can achieve our goals with less effort and perform better. Effortless action can lead to a state of harmony and balance, where we're in tune with the world around us. I'm embracing this myself now as I dive into my passion as an indie game developer. It's something that comes naturally to me, but I've held back because I thought it "interfered" with work and other life commitments. Now I'm realizing it's about finding that flow and letting it enhance all aspects of life. Thanks for this insightful video. Subscribed!

Broo I've been thinking about this topic a lot, even before finding this video. I’ve realized that working smarter, not harder, is key. This approach involves leveraging strengths while addressing weaknesses, and I figured out that 'talent' is the best way to describe it. A great example is Mozart. From the moment he first interacted with a piano at 4 years old, he had an innate ability and seemed to know what to do. Just a year later, at 5, he was already composing. People often spend years just to become proficient at playing an instrument, followed by many more years to master music theory and composition. Yet, Mozart excelled at all of this at such a young age. His natural ability made the process more enjoyable, which, scientifically, is the brain's optimal way to improve. This completely contradicts and exposes the mindset of working hard at something while hating its process. It's cool that I found a video discussing this topic in such detail and expanding on it.

This is truly something many people need to hear. I knew right out of high school that I was good at math and science, but wanted a break from school. So I went into plumbing. I did good work, but was slow and anxious about making mistakes with potentially massive financial issues. That career didn't work. Then I went to culinary school, but quickly realized that while I could follow a recipe, I was too anxious about the process as a whole to move as quickly or with as much finesse as is required of a chef. Nor was I very creative about food; it was simply something to be eaten, from my perspective. That career didn't work either. Now I'm back to doing what I'm good at. I'm studying engineering, physics, mathematics, chemistry, biology, and am utterly thriving in it. So much so that I have picked up other natural inclinations like storytelling, world development; Dungeons and Dragons, basically. Really look into yourself about what you truly enjoy doing, and what you are good at. If you find you cannot find anything of the sort about yourself, ask the people closest to you and they can give you somewhere to start. I know how it is to be incredibly self-critical.

Its good to think about strengths and then choose something that fits your strengths, but also if theres something that requires a kind of strength/talent, you will also be able to do it, if you really want to. You can also get any kind of strength by practice and leaving your comfort zone, which then makes your path in a certain direction a lot easier.

But you know, when your dreams are big, there are many ways to get to it; Like for example, if I want to be a doctor, then does failing social science, maths and language impact my journey? Obviously no. It's the parents who force us or Society. They just want to compare. Many talents have chosen a different path from education system and yet achieved their dreams. You don't have to be good at everything. I feel really good about myself liking one thing, because I wouldn't have to choose between others. One path is originally better than 6 different paths and having to choose between them, unaware of the outcomes.

@coreyroberts47 Exactly. Others could also make it in music mixing for sure but due to some reason its gonna take others 5x 10x more effort. On the process of making it they may give up on the goal just out of frustration while those who have natural inclination will make it cause the fact that they find it little easier and interesting to do than the rest. Dr. Carols book Mindset says about Fixed mindset vs Growth mindset Where fixed mindset people are told to give up when a challenge comes up and want to feel the best all time Where as growth mindset people when faced with challenge feel better than just reaching goal Once given into this idea, later when i found my inclination found this concept wrong. Its better to have a fixed mindset approach for goal setting and growth mindset approach for the process, and applying it to natural inclination.

I relate strongly to this. I was working in a sales job last summer, and it just didn't matter how much I "tried" or how much dedication I put into it, I just felt like it didn't come naturally to me. But man, when I study/do things like problem solving, programming, computer science, music production, songwriting and composition, it all comes to me naturally and I feel like I don't even need the "discipline" to do it.

this is very true and the hard truth is that you most likely have to find it through trial & error. it took me many different jobs and over 12 years after school to find out that I'm talented in software engineering. Once I realized it, it completely changed my life. I found out about it on accident because a friend talked to me about his engineering job and I solved a problem for him without even having programmed one line of code before. that got me hooked I remember thinking that I cannot be good at programming because I always thought it is very theoretical and a lot of maths, but in reality it's 90% simple logic puzzles and almost 0% maths.

[@TimesChu]

One thing I'd add: Just because you weren't born good at something doesn't mean you can't be good at it. You may not know how to draw, for example, but if you really wish you could draw, then chances are you have the mind of an artist even if you don't have the skills of one yet. It's always easier to learn something you think is interesting than something you think is boring.

I've been clinging to my natural inclinations all my life because it is safe, I chose the easy way, I wanted to win and avoiding suffering... So I got good at something I don't really love nor hate. Now I'm trying out the harder path - doing what I actually love, to the point where failing at it doesn't matter as much cause the rewards isn't your motivation but the actual act. I enjoy suffering now, my growth has been exponential, and I realize that years of being safe could've been years of growth for the thing that I love doing...

[@actually_curious4773]

I've been doing this my whole life, pushing myself into situations, jobs, courses that didn't match my interests or inner strengths. I'm now in my second year of a master's degree that just makes my skin crawl, it's like the opposite of what I'm good at. I don't know why I've been doing this to myself for so many years, and at this point I don't even know how to flip the switch. The worst thing is that due to being somewhat disciplined I DO manage to get by in these situations, ranging from passable to good, but gosh if I had only applied myself to something I'm intrinsically good at...

[@nazifaanjum38]

Finding what you are good at might be a little tough sometimes, and that's normal. So, in our country, you have to prepare for grueling university entrance exams. I thought, ''Hmm, I like math; I am good at it, so I'll prep for the engineering colleges." I was so battered up. I felt like the dumbest person on earth. Those physics problems, man I just wasn’t able to do that. Then I was depressed. Obviously, I didn’t make it to any engineering colleges. Then, I decided that I would enroll in a private college that I was accepted into, and I picked microbiology as my major. It’s been one year and I am loving it! I never knew that this would be my area. But it is. And as I like it so much, I go overboard with it, and score so so so high, it feels awesome. When people ask me how I do it, I just say, ''I truly love every bit of it. Never was this passionate about any subject, but this." So yeah, do what you are good at, do what comes to you the most easily. No one can beat you at being you. You might fumble a little bit while trying to figure it all out, but yeah, after you figured that out you will love it, you will love the journey, you will love the fight, the struggles, the competition.

[@qualiqueancrum9135]

[@nazifaanjum38]

Consistency & habits > Discipline & willpower, all the way! I also recommend everybody to read Atomic Habits and Deep Work. These books discuss how to get a better hold of your habits and working hours to not only produce better, but actually feel more content and satisfied with it as a human being. James Clear, the guy behind Atomic Habits, writes: 'The interior of behavior change and building better habits is your identity. Each action you perform is driven by the fundamental belief that it is possible. So if you change your identity (the type of person that you believe that you are), then it’s easier to change your actions.' I'd add that even if identity is malleable, it fundamentally comes from you. So do try to give yourself time for things that actually resonate with your values and traits.

[@nocodenoblunder6672]

I wish I could believe that but true greatness comes only if you’re talented AND put in the work. Think albert Einstein for example. You think physics or math didn’t come easily to him? Put another less talented scientist up against him, and even in multiple lifetimes of endless work, they would not discover anything even close to that lvl of what Einstein discovered. Sure they can be successful also but not like that and it’s an uphill battle.

The bit that helped me the most was medication, turns out it's easy to do the things you enjoy when your brain isn't constantly screaming about too little dopamine. As opposed to not even being able to do things you enjoy because your brain is that malformed. ADHD is a really nasty disability when it's more severe.

[@WilliamLaurenson]

What kind of medication? I watched a video about adderall once and it sounds like a wonder-drug lol but does it actually work? I really want to go to a professional to test myself for ADHD ASAP so I can try medication as well.

[@Call-me-Al]

@@WilliamLaurenson Different people respond differently well to the different medications. Most of us respond well to some sort of stimulant, but a few of us do better on non-stimulant ADHD medication. I'm on Concerta, which is the first line treatment in my country, but I asked to try Strattera first because I had hoped it would work as both a replacement for my SNRI antidepressant medication and as a treatment against the ADHD, but I suffered from a too strong very rare side-effect (made my Raynaud's so incredibly much worse) and had to stop taking it. I tried Concerta and it made a far far bigger difference to reduce the ADHD severity, but unfortunately it turned out that my chronic depression (likely autoimmune issues) hadn't been caused by ADHD (sometimes people with both depression and ADHD have a depression only because of ADHD) and I had to resume taking my SNRI antidepressant (which has extremely few and negligible side-effects for me, it would just have been more convenient if I could have skipped it).

[@googloocraft12]

@@WilliamLaurenson There's a lot of different medication for ADHD and everyone react diffirently to them, so there's a lot of trying/testing to find the medication that fits you the best. For me I tried a lot of them and found one that works pretty well for me, so yes it works.

So true. Before I started going to school and doing what I truly love (education) I went through multiple different career paths, one of which was real estate. I never felt like I truly fit into working inside the office, and it didn’t feel like it natural for me. Since that experience I have learned that I truly thrive in school, and when I am working as a tutor/ teacher. I have even received many compliments from students parents and it made me feel great. People would compliment me for “successful” when truly I was just doing what was meant for me. On the downside, paying for school is difficult, but the amount of joy it gives me makes it all worth it.
