I definitely walk more than 18 minutes a day. Does that make me a champion? Same with basketball if you play basketball 18 minutes a day that may make you the top 50% of the world if that
Not ture. There would a small population who have natural skill/an advantage over the remaining people. So your world ranking wouldnt exactly be the same, but i get your point.
Was thinking something similar and seems bs. On the other hand if those are competitive games you do seem to notice that it feels quite often that you play alone. So overall it might be true, you are better than 95% of people out there. Just not good enough when compared with the 0.1 of the players that do end up making a career out of it. I mean, just look at stats for 100m running for women and men. Women's best all time, so rank 1 with time of 10.49 held by only one athlete. Men's time 10.49 is rank 7169 held by a lot of athletes. So this not only shows the difference between men and women but for our case here it shows that at top competitive levels the wiggle room is so narrow that being better than 95% of people means jack shit. There are a lot of candidates within a single second so in order to get noticed you really need to bring it to be like better than 99.95% of people.
You can play any competitive video game under any hours and still suck so long as you don't pick up and learn any forms of strategy and learn common mechanics that's used in them to improve.
@@zosazsatara5889 I think the main differnce is that learning to play a game is often differnt from just playing the game. So learning to play a game might be vod reviews or watching game play footage of others to see what they do differently. Also I think a lot more people consistently say play competitive games than the same people would say play guitar and after just playing most people eventually hit a limit that can't be breached without intentional practice. Though I think maybe it could be said that if you include all the people that quit playing the game and never touched it again maybe the numbers of how good you are would jump significantly as you might just be average in the game but if the people that all quit suddenly came back perhaps you might be in the top 20% or higher at least for a time until they start getting better themselves.
@@Name-nq7tj Here's the thing though, most of us got a life, and what I discovered is that the ones who play so well are ones who got a lot of time on their hands or they probably have no job. I play competitive games and my gameplay is average, I can be a pro player if I wanted but in the end it doesn't mean anything once I get rusty cause I'm busy with my job and other things in my life that my skills will become average since my mind isn't so highly concentrated like I used to be when playing as a pro player. Being average is fine since being a pro can make things less fun if you've already have high detection like a super computer. One guy I know years back played so well in a certain fighting game that he'd end up being avoided cause most people already know him to play so good. Not worth being the top just to win if you're not having fun.

So true. No matter how much you practice something like music, you are either talented or not. Will you improve? Absolutely! Will you be better than 95% of people? No. Of course you will be better than most. Most don't play at all!
@@alansach8437I'm a musician, that's false, there's no such thing as "talent". Talent is either just contact and practice with music or intelligence... You need intelligence to learn anything. You can be the 1% musician, whoever you are, if you work.
Ya I don’t think that’s true in Asia specially my country India for the Jee exam (engineering) 1 million people register and out of which 10 thousand get selected and only the top 5 thousand get decent colleges. I think most people study for 10-15 hours a day for it and still only 0.1% people get into it.
I mean yeah? But the point (what it seems like) is that his comparing himself to people who do not do that certain thing. Like, if you spent 18min practicing idk coding, you will become better then people who do not code nor practice it. Basically, training at X makes you better at X in comparison to people who do not train. This is just a bad take of, if you do something for 10k hours you will become a master at it.
@@patrickcarrera5956 it’s most likely a motivation concept. You’re more likely to do it for 18 min over any amount of hours. This can turn into hours of commitment down the line.

That might be a rule of thumb, but what really makes someone on the top level, is learning effectively.

No, 18 minutes a day, What's this? A philosophy for kindergartens? It might be a metaphor but it is so misleading. I learned lots of skills, playing musical instruments like guitar, piano, and drums when I was a teenager. Including the fundamentals of music. I have been a web developer since 2017 and jumped into game development, learned 3D modeling, animation, and other 3D arts fundamentals, I learned C# and other game programming languages, and tons of math and physics. And I guarantee you, that 18 minutes a day is a joke. Suffering through trial and error is the key. Learning skill is not like transferring files from device to device using Bluetooth, it's a hell of a process, and people need to respect the suffering of learning.
After quitting piano in middle school I spent 5 minutes a day practicing, after a year I could tell I had reached a threshold of being able to utilize cords to the first time ever.

If everybody did 18 min of karate every day fro a year, you would still be exactly where you were on the world ranking
fr 18 mins is like half the warmup
Not really, people learn at different rates
i mean you could learn a new move in less than 5 minutes and spend the rest of the time practicing it. 365 days a year and 366 on a leap.
Not ture. There would a small population who have natural skill/an advantage over the remaining people. So your world ranking wouldnt exactly be the same, but i get your point.

Damn that's crazy I play video games for 17 hours a day I must be insanely disciplined
Was thinking something similar and seems bs. On the other hand if those are competitive games you do seem to notice that it feels quite often that you play alone. So overall it might be true, you are better than 95% of people out there. Just not good enough when compared with the 0.1 of the players that do end up making a career out of it. I mean, just look at stats for 100m running for women and men. Women's best all time, so rank 1 with time of 10.49 held by only one athlete. Men's time 10.49 is rank 7169 held by a lot of athletes. So this not only shows the difference between men and women but for our case here it shows that at top competitive levels the wiggle room is so narrow that being better than 95% of people means jack shit. There are a lot of candidates within a single second so in order to get noticed you really need to bring it to be like better than 99.95% of people.
You can play any competitive video game under any hours and still suck so long as you don't pick up and learn any forms of strategy and learn common mechanics that's used in them to improve.
@@zosazsatara5889 I think the main differnce is that learning to play a game is often differnt from just playing the game. So learning to play a game might be vod reviews or watching game play footage of others to see what they do differently.
Also I think a lot more people consistently say play competitive games than the same people would say play guitar and after just playing most people eventually hit a limit that can't be breached without intentional practice. Though I think maybe it could be said that if you include all the people that quit playing the game and never touched it again maybe the numbers of how good you are would jump significantly as you might just be average in the game but if the people that all quit suddenly came back perhaps you might be in the top 20% or higher at least for a time until they start getting better themselves.
@@Name-nq7tj Here's the thing though, most of us got a life, and what I discovered is that the ones who play so well are ones who got a lot of time on their hands or they probably have no job.
I play competitive games and my gameplay is average, I can be a pro player if I wanted but in the end it doesn't mean anything once I get rusty cause I'm busy with my job and other things in my life that my skills will become average since my mind isn't so highly concentrated like I used to be when playing as a pro player.
Being average is fine since being a pro can make things less fun if you've already have high detection like a super computer. One guy I know years back played so well in a certain fighting game that he'd end up being avoided cause most people already know him to play so good. Not worth being the top just to win if you're not having fun.

I used to hear the 10,000 hour rule: you aren’t a master until you’ve spent 10000 hours doing whatever it is you’re trying to master.

You know what, in this case, consistency is key. The most important thing is to get something started or there’s nothing
I mean yeah? But the point (what it seems like) is that his comparing himself to people who do not do that certain thing. Like, if you spent 18min practicing idk coding, you will become better then people who do not code nor practice it.

That might be a rule of thumb, but what really makes someone on the top level, is learning effectively.

No, 18 minutes a day, What's this? A philosophy for kindergartens? It might be a metaphor but it is so misleading. I learned lots of skills, playing musical instruments like guitar, piano, and drums when I was a teenager. Including the fundamentals of music.
I have been a web developer since 2017 and jumped into game development, learned 3D modeling, animation, and other 3D arts fundamentals, I learned C# and other game programming languages, and tons of math and physics.
And I guarantee you, that 18 minutes a day is a joke. Suffering through trial and error is the key. Learning skill is not like transferring files from device to device using Bluetooth, it's a hell of a process, and people need to respect the suffering of learning.
