@@cosmichild1 hey um, sorry if it’s off-topic but, genuine question (cause i’m thinking of doing psych), how is psych uni like? and also are jobs really that hard to find without a phd? you don’t have to answer if you don’t want to btw!! i’m just really curious
My coach in high school called focusing “dialing in”, or staying “dialed in”. I like it because it brings to my mind images of something being wound up, or a spring being compressed. It requires energy, but the energy put in is stored for later, when it can be applied in a controlled and useful manner.
I’m currently in a 17 game losing streak and I wasn’t sure why until this video. I get tilted and while playing, I’m in the mindset that “it’s just s+0” or “it’s just 1550 power, this should be easy for me.” I need to get out of that to actually win my games.
This is why you need to take into account that there's still another game in a set into "did you win?" If you won that game but lost the set, then while that was a hype game, you overall didn't win. This is the thought process I've worked on in games In-general, although that's with me also not having high self esteem for my skill level, so I always feel like an underdog when playing PvP in any game. If anything I've had a harder time keeping that psychological flow in Single Player games like Side Order Hackless because at a certain point I know I can do it, but I didn't that run, and it annoys me so much
This came in just the other day for me during Zones Weekly. My team ended up reverse sweeping our opponents round 1 in a pretty decent upset considering I'd never won a set before ever in anything (low-level and relatively new to comp). I remember next round I felt super confident, like we could actually end up getting a good result... until we got destroyed. Luckily it was Swiss-Style so we still got to play, and the rest of the matches we played with better discipline, but overconfidence (especially with the risk of getting your confidence crushed so decisively) is definitely one of the most dangerous feelings to get mid-tourney.
I also have aphantasia, my advice is to not let that be an excuse that you can't imagine things just because you can't visualize them in your mind. I've seen it as an advantage because I have to be more conceptual about imagining things, and that's a helpful muscle to work out that translates to all kinds of other skills.
Great video! I need to watch this every day before I play. I am very new, find myself doing All the bad things you talked about 😂 This is gonna help me a lot
My hype meter always starts at a middle level, with me thinking i can at least win a game, then i lose one game but did great in my eyes that was a great game, but i win but my team carried and i get upset. At the end of the day i always am left on no hype
The one thing I need to work on when partaking in tournaments is the ability to maintain my expectations, no matter the results. I remember participating in a freelancer tourney and I ended up in last place three times in a row, which dampened my confidence, resulting in lower expectations.
A single battle won does not constitute a war victory. No relief, stay at the top of the game instead of feeling like you are. Do your best, but prepare for the worst. Alex Thatch had the goal of reaching 10 million points in NES Tetris. When he reached that goal, he pushed beyond it, until he reached a milestone that eas nearly impossible to beat, for now. Strive for that same mentality. While accomplishing just enough can feel satisfying (and i know that expecting perfection from yourself at everything is a terrible mindset too), you're never going to accomplish anything by keeping yourself to that standard.
Hey @pchris, it's important to give things time to grow! The number of views right after upload doesn't necessarily reflect the quality or relevance of the content. Squid School consistently delivers engaging and informative content, and with time, I'm sure the views will catch up. Plus, the value of a video isn't solely determined by its view count; it's about the impact it has on its audience. Keep supporting great creators like Squid School, and you'll see their influence endure far beyond just the initial view count!

First dating advice, now psychology? Cool
Dating advice here is, just because you have a date with your crush, you must not act like it's a home run and the world is fine now.
Excited for the quantum physics seminar next month
i just imagine in the future people look back to this when gem's become a psych2go-like youtuber
Psych major here, psychology is everywhere
You cannot escape

damn no music at the end
he is really locked in
This is ironic, because Splatoon has music that you cannot turn off. Silence would help me focus.
Honestly, the splatoon is a sonic mess, especially the splatter color screen too…

That's a really nice way of thinking about it! I think I'll try to think about this next time I'm in a situation like what's described in Gem's video.
its not over till its over
this applies both to winning AND losing :D

...I should do this with anarchy battle XD
My first ever tournament I didn’t win a set. It made me want to win even more next time

Gem sees the future of the LTC grand final bracket reset!
I love the pitch back screen for the start of the video, I have Aphantasia so I get a whole lot of nothing here 💖💖💖

@jaspurrzit’s just their suggestion, if it helps that’s great if not then that’s ok too
I lock in more emotionally anyway, the playstyle Gem describes does not fit my weapon but I get his point
Great video! I need to watch this every day before I play. I am very new, find myself doing All the bad things you talked about 😂 This is gonna help me a lot
love you got kyo in the thumbnail after bashing him at riptide for trashtalk very cool!

Nice vid gem- I needed this
Moonlight didn't lock in
Nah, Starburst is just plot armor-good at the video game.
@@SquidSchool also very true! All teams did really great ngl!
