I wanted to say thank you, I bought your book and it has really been helping me, you are an inspiration and make me want to be a better version of myself every day. THANK YOU ❤
Abdullah! o wow! I can't tell you how good that makes me feel. I am very happy that the book has helped you. Thank you very much for the kind words. Don't hesitate if you have any questions for me. And don't forget to leave a review on amazon. Reviews are huge for new authors. Thanks for the support.
I sucked at school. I'm ADHD, and autistic. But whennit came to guitar, it was pretty much the same deal. I went from just screwing around, to practicing 6 to 12 hours per days, and enjoying it. I think I did the same with cycling. I'd ride for an hour occassionally, and I got to riding 200-300 miles per week, for fun... Now, I'm old. I can still play guitar real well, but riding bike? I get bored after an hour... Like my affinity for music, I've an affinity for engineering.... but I hate school.... I did go to some college, aced physics, but sucked at everything else, because my teachers were horrible... physics teacher was fun.. go figure... I'm retired now, but interested in so much...
Thank you so much. I literally just started my engineering journey and was already doubting if I would be able to make it to the end. It’s encouraging to know that I would adjust with time and to be patient with myself until I do. In the mean time, I will keep at it.
Great quality videos here ! I also want to add that there are daily habits things that makes your concentration worse like excessive video game time, using short form content apps (tiktok/reels) and overstimulating your brain ! As well as daily activities that can encourage focus and concentration like reading books (wether its fiction of non-fiction) or meditation. Keep up the good work !
Brain cells and circuits are a lot like muscles and tendons, they all adapt and grow to accomodate to the stress they are put under. In other words they do better what they do repetitively. So like lifing a bar 50 times improves your strength, so does thinking about, remembering, and recalling, may you better at those functions. But there is one caviat. The brain, unlike muscles, contains the circuitry of ego and emotions, which can be blockers of deliberate learning of stuff that is not connected to ego and emotions. (However, if something is connected to the ego and emotions, we remember it quite easily, which can be unfortunate for bad experiences). So to learn all that neutral stuff (not connected to ego and emotions) we have to cultivate curiosity, concentrate while abandoning the sense of self and over personalizing experience, and repeat, repeat, repeat and retest what we repeated. Also, whether it is learning or becoming a better (or worse person) we are who we practice being.
I figure that something like that must have happened to me. I was a terrible HS student. I struggled with math even into college. It was with great determination that the math light started to glow for me.
i would like to add the PPC method from 'how to get an a in college' (or something similar) Pay attention, Put it in ur own words, Connect with it. i Paid attention to the beginning letters of this method. i Put the letters in my own words - Particle Projection Cannon (i was a sci-fi war-gamer), i Connected with it by imagining the cannon shooting knowledge and understanding into my head.
i iwsh someone like you or you could be my life coach, i really needa change, went from being a bright gifted kid who was incredible in science, to an absolute dysfunctional mess, BARELY scarping by doing the bare minimum. I want to change, and soon Im gonna put in a plan to change my habits, my ways, and become the scientist engineer I want to be. Ill be buying your books, gonna cut off the internet use.
Ooo you’re in the thick of it! Well done sir. Glad you like the channel. Ooo I don’t have any suggestions for the TI-89 I’m sorry. But I’ll keep it in mind in case I come across something.
Hello Jake, ¿Why not teach us what you know about structural engineering? For example, what would it take to support a living space (a residence) using iron posts? And once having made all the right computations, we can then be able to use the concrete ground floor as our garage & workshop. If you choose to be our teacher, offering us a class with alot of real life projects, I will subscribe to your channel.
I've had this argument with various psychologists and school teachers(I are one). I think you can become more intelligent/smarter, some do not believe this. You can't really argue the point with them because they don't believe they can improve or be smarter so it hurts to argue with them. They already steadfastly believe they are at a level of intelligence that is static: they will stay stupid, despite the facts. Oh well. I gave it a shot. Since your an engineer, I really wonder why you felt the need to predrill for the deck screws in this application? Did the baby scrunchies or the depth of the screws really have the potential to exert the necessary force to split the wood? I 'wanna see the math.
You cannot become smarter. You can only maximize what genetics gifted you. And apply yourself with vigor and purpose. Thems the breaks. Can't beat entropy, either.

Yes! Have patience with yourself and take comfort that with dedication and persistence, you will get better at it 100%.

THANK YOU MAN!! YOU ARE AWESOME !! I WILL BUY YOUR BOOK AS WELL !! i am seriously thinking about getting a degree in industrial engineering.
fantastic! thats great! and thank you! let me know how you like the book
I will begin classes next may 2024 for I am starting a new job next week. Sure I let you know.
@@Chuck-xl2ez, how’s it going?
Nice visual, I never thought of it that way.
i would like to add the PPC method from 'how to get an a in college' (or something similar) Pay attention, Put it in ur own words, Connect with it. i Paid attention to the beginning letters of this method. i Put the letters in my own words - Particle Projection Cannon (i was a sci-fi war-gamer), i Connected with it by imagining the cannon shooting knowledge and understanding into my head.
Way to go Jake
I enjoyed that very much
Keep up your great work
Hey thanks! I will!
I would have loved to hear about how you learned about neuroplasticity to just give more strength to your point of the vid...
Good video, good message! I believe what you are saying.
i iwsh someone like you or you could be my life coach, i really needa change, went from being a bright gifted kid who was incredible in science, to an absolute dysfunctional mess, BARELY scarping by doing the bare minimum. I want to change, and soon Im gonna put in a plan to change my habits, my ways, and become the scientist engineer I want to be. Ill be buying your books, gonna cut off the internet use.
I will be offering a course in the near future that I think may be up your alley.
Love your channel. Currently in my junior year in mechanical engineering. Any videos on what programs to have on my TI-89
Ooo you’re in the thick of it! Well done sir. Glad you like the channel. Ooo I don’t have any suggestions for the TI-89 I’m sorry. But I’ll keep it in mind in case I come across something.
You could have said, “Just suck it up, Buckwheat” and drastically reduced the length of this vid.
Where’s the fun in that?
I like your choice of lego cars ;)
Thought you'd at least mention The Stamets Stack

Homie basically just said...F**KIN study
👁👁
lmao half that video was u making the visual thing.
Did you like it?

isnt maximixing unactivated genetics getting smarter tho? Not a smart comment about smartness, lol.
