I agree. The process of fixing my life went as follows: learning about myself, accepting myself, making changes to my life to support desired results. Self forgiveness and self awareness are very important for this in my opinion. This stuff takes a long time so be patient and kind to yourselves. It feels like things change all in one jump but really every small decision is what led up to that feeling of change. The cumulative of small decisions such as how you choose to talk to yourself, how you choose to react to adversity, keeping awareness of what you can control, and what you cannot, etc.
I'm majoring in engineering and have watched many of your math videos to help me understand topics from class. I've also been going through pretty severe depression lately. I've watched several of your life advice videos and have really appreciated the messages you're sharing. Thank you so much!
In part thanks to your channel, I went back to university to attend graduate school in my mid 30s (economics) starting a few years ago. I just scored 100 in a PhD level statistics subject, apparently being the first student in several years to do so. It would not have been possible without some of the things I've learned on this channel (both actual math, and attitude/mindset). Thank you! Would love to shake your hand one day.
Hey Math Sorcerer! I dont know if you’re going to read this but I’ve been going through a really rough patch in life and your videos have helped me more than you can possibly imagine. Thank you for making them. I am really glad i found your channel.
Thank you. Lately, my path has been paved with miracles. I'm just finishing a real analysis honours course, where my results way exceed my wildest expectations. Also finishing up abstract algebra, statistics, and a course on ODE's. Maths is its own miracle! Wonderful things happen every day.
Thank you so much! Made a mind shift the past week and this reinforces some of the stuff I’ve learned so far. Started studying elec. engineering in 2020. Struggled academically and socially and decided to drop out in 2022. Now, end of 2024, I’ve passed all my subjects for the first time (studying Education with Math and Physics now). I’ve felt behind and seeing all my classmates graduate made me felt bad. But it’s all about expecting good things. I’m on the right track. Much love from South Africa 🇿🇦
Thank you for you advice Math Sorcerer! As you mentioned about leaving a comment behind, what I want to say to whoever reads this is seek authenticity over greatness in life (and something wonderful will happen to you)
Your videos are the perfect addition to my life, your timing is always perfect and every word you say matters. Greetings from Poland!! Keep up the good work!!
@@TheMathSorcerer Your channel is one of only few places on the Internet that don t feel fake and rotten but rather real, good and inspiring. Thank You for that!
Really needed this today. I appreciate how honest you are and how your advice always seems to be authentic and unique to your way of thinking. You practice what you preach and that’s unfortunately hard to find online nowadays. Thank you so much for being you! That alone makes me hopeful and optimistic about being myself and having a genuine experience of life. I’ll be giving your idea a try!
He's created value for his customers along with employment opportunities for many who don't appreciate him. So. In the place of Mr. Bezos, thank you for your concern and opinion.
This is really positive, and really great advice! It is big feature- it is easy to use. Just to put it into the memmory. I will have something positive (weonderful) for today! Simple sentence. To be positive. All the time. 🙂Positive things are very neccessary to do a progress in any direction (math or any other stuff). HAving positive, u do progress, you see your results, u do progress again..and this is a cycle of positve. Thats cool! Best advice for the end of the year! Really, no joke!! Be positive!!! 😀
Thank you for making this video. I somewhat disagreed with the last video "You are what you think about", but completely agree with the message in this one. This way of thinking helps prevent downward spirals in life of which I have had several in my 36 years of life. I wish I ran into someone with such guidance during my childhood. 'Whether I shall turn out to be the hero of my own life, or whether that station will be held by anybody else, these pages must show'. From David Copperfield.
Thanks for your comment. May I suggest a slight alteration? _"We become what we think about."_ I can highly recommend you search for "The Strangest Secret" by Earl Nightingale, a 36-minute audio program, originally pressed on vinyl in the 1950s, winning the first Gold record for a spken-word performance.
I'm nursing student. Actually, I'm 21 yo. I think I needed this so much. My dream is to move to the US and become a doctor, I know it may be impossible, because right now I have no money, I live in Poland, I have joints inflammation, but this won't stop me from trying and believing that maybe something wonderful will happen to me today/tomorrow or in next days/2025. I love watching your videos, Sir. They motivate me every time. Best regards from Poland
I believe something great is going to happen to me today! You caught me off guard when you came out with meshing the IQ's of all the people watching you together, I just could not help laughing loudly at the idea, its like you tickled my brain just the right way at the right moment, even thou true-ish your imagination is really hilarious in a positive way. Thank you for the motivation.
Thank you for this video. When I was in high school last year, I went to a new school where I didn’t know anybody. And I decided to try living like a “Yes Man” with Jim Carey, and it was one of the most interesting and remembering periods in my life.
The big thing is knowing when you need help. If your life needs "fixing", what does that mean to you? It's a question you need to ask yourself, maybe more than once. If you have a broken leg, you can make all the improvements you want to your mind and body but that won't fix your leg. If you can't fix your leg, you need help. If you are schizophrenic, you need to take your medication. If you can't get your medication, you need help. If your job sucks, you need to do some hard work and improve your job skills. If you can't, you need help. A positive mental attitude is great but you need to avoid toxic positivity. Things can be ok for now until they get better but work is needed for you to accomplish any goal.
Yep McDonalds did that with me when I had started working with them as a high school student. Video was a training video. Math Sorcerer trust me I have never been scared of any work.
The way I interpreted your last video is: I am thinking about math then it dives into the process of reading the questions and then solving the problems to arrive at the answers. Your statement of what you think about is what one becomes is true. Because what happens is any task or any potential anything starts with a single thought and it also starts with a purpose. So the subject matter contained in the thoughts that are processed incrementally build and builds to a large picture. It is the same as having an organizational structure with all the pieces fitting together to construct the larger picture. A single thought conspires to more thoughts and thjs process continues on the Math Sorcerer train in the construction of more thoughts fitting within the context of learning Mathematics. Starts with a drip 💧 drip to become a whole new world of newborn knowledge that aligns the person with amazing qualities and qualifications landing the person then as the expert like Math Sorcerer. 👍
Like, individually trying to develop a positive attitude where you trust the world etc. Is good, but it's really important to distinguish this from a more general social perspective. A lot of psychology of child raising very much about teaching the child that the world is a place you can trust and you get your needs met. Fx. IQ raises and falls in relation to how much the subject can trust its environment and therefore have space for abstract and long term thinking. But right now due to social inequality a lot of people are in environments they cannot trust. Advising someone to be more positive and relaxed is good advice on individual level long as you acknowledge that everything looks quite different at a social level and that someone is "smart" is very much based on the privilege of a safe environment.
Hi Math Sorcerer Please give me some insight… I am taking calc II next semester but have not taken Calc I in 3 years. How do you recommend I brush up on Calc I? Is Khan Academy solid? Textbooks? Should I brush up on precalc too?
When people try to act positive and it doesn't work is because you are relying on yourself for that happiness, but if you believe something wonderful will happen to you today or tomorrow, you are acknowlegding that thing is outside of your power and is inevitable. There isnt much stress on you in that regard.
I believe something wonderful will happen to me in tomorrow, i believe something womderful will happen to me in tomorrow, i believe something wonderful will happen to me in tomorrow!
That's some very powerful LOA shit, maybe even dangerous. Thing is, being alive BY ITSELF is a wonderful something to have happen to them. ATTITUDE OF GRATITUDE.
Like for example, the wind stole my food by knocking it over and some dirt got in the food. Now I get to refry that food. It's going to be good. Something wonderful is about to happen to me.
Given that this is a math channel, I expected a more novel and interesting take, but what I got was the most conventional non-advice imaginable. Whenever I was in a rut, I always found videos like this particularly upsetting. "Just be positive" puts the cart before the horse. If you're in a poor mindset such advice won't be appealing. If such advice does 'feel right" to you all of a sudden, then you were probably already on an upswing or experiencing mania.

Bros gotta change his name from the math sorcerer to the life sorcerer

I mean I did decide yesterday I was gonna wake up a new person today so, thanks for supporting that process mr Sorcerer
I think positivly and many things just go better once I stop believing in lies that been told to me and make me sad or angry.
Jesus talk about perfect timing
Prof, you're just awesome

Hi Math Sorcerer
Please give me some insight… I am taking calc II next semester but have not taken Calc I in 3 years.
How do you recommend I brush up on Calc I? Is Khan Academy solid? Textbooks? Should I brush up on precalc too?
Check out my calc courses, link in description:)
I have used Khan Acedemy as a tool for some of my studies and it has very much helped
I've been doing this everyday for the last three weeks, but nothing is improving.
When people try to act positive and it doesn't work is because you are relying on yourself for that happiness, but if you believe something wonderful will happen to you today or tomorrow, you are acknowlegding that thing is outside of your power and is inevitable. There isnt much stress on you in that regard.
Positive attitude helps you to stay positive even in contradictory situation. So keep positive and hope the best.
Ah, so that's what I've been doing wrong. I've been using the affirmation "I sorta believe something decent enough will happen to me next year.".
When are you going on tour?
I love you sir❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thak u sir and again love from my hear for you and math
Sorry I made a typing mistake
Fix it brotherrr
I believe something wonderful is going to happen to me when I finally finish How To Prove it by Velleman... 3 more chapters to go!
I believe something wonderful will happen to me in tomorrow, i believe something womderful will happen to me in tomorrow, i believe something wonderful will happen to me in tomorrow!
Damn UA-cam algorithm. Top Video recommended 😅
i like your energy but not sure if this would work
This video appeared to me right after I got ignored by a girl
That's some very powerful LOA shit, maybe even dangerous.
Thing is, being alive BY ITSELF is a wonderful something to have happen to them.
ATTITUDE OF GRATITUDE.
But I am also a huge believer in pessimism and focusing on problems like a laser beam.
Like for example, the wind stole my food by knocking it over and some dirt got in the food.
Now I get to refry that food. It's going to be good. Something wonderful is about to happen to me.

Dear , you are alone
This is not an "actionable strategy." This is "The Secret" level rubbish.
I think that it might work short term but long term is not sustainable.
