Now we need to answer “Why not Mumbo here?” Edit: genuinely excited by the number of likes(even though the number is a bit “pants” to some), thanks all!
Yes and no. The real answer to the question is "by just doing shit until he got good at it". I'd be willing to bet that if he'd just got bored and dropped out at any point during his first 2-3 years, few people would have noticed and even fewer would have cared. We humans (myself included) are prone to thinking that when we see someone who's really good at something its because they're uniquely qualified. But while talent is certainly useful, the more important quality is skill. And building skill means persevering through often many years of being crap at whatever you're doing but continuing to do it anyway. But as I well know from experience, perseverance is itself a hard skill to master. So much easier to just throw on a Mumbo video and zone out. Get that short term entertainment fix rather than spending time on improving a long term skill.
This whole video I was waiting for the, "and how did I learn to do that? I used skillshare. They are the sponsors of this video and for only 10 dollars a month you can learn anything you want..."
UA-cam is random and unpredictable, and “success” on UA-cam takes a combination of luck and preparation. It’s just a little bit of that luck that can tip the scales.
That's not unique to UA-cam -- being in the right place at the right time with the right stuff makes all the difference when it comes to serious breakout success. And one can't bank on that; for many very talented and hard-working people that one-in-a-million success never comes. That makes it a bad goal in and of itself, because not everyone can do it no matter how hard they work; very few people make it. But more general success, becoming very good at something, making a living off it, enjoying one's work, that's not so random -- pick something you love, and work on getting good at it. Note how much effort Mumbo put into learning about the pursuits he undertook. He watched others do it over and over, he studied how they did it, he practiced a lot, he put his heart and soul into it, and worked at it for years. The love provided the motivation for the grindy bits (there are always grindy bits). So even if you don't get rich and famous, your life will be fulfilling. Not bad, when you think about it.

I love how this little mini-vlog sort of thing has the same style as his documentaries. Just makes it that much more interesting. It doesn't really matter what he says at this point. I'mma listen because of the chill music and cinematic style.
Mumbo really does have a heart or gold. You can tell he’s so astonished and grateful for his own success that he just wants to help others achieve their own.
First off: I really like the way you look in this video. I actually think you look really cool with the hair style. This was a great video to watch when I woke up. Second: This video was very entertaining and im assuming the moral of the story is try new things and roll with it. But I really like the setup you did and I like how you connect to use through this video. I appreciate these kinds of videos a lot. Mahalo for reading my comment and I hope you and your fam has a wonderful day. Aloha!
Man, I would love to see an alternate reality where Mumbo is a professional animator. Now *that* would be epic. Mumbo as a cinematographer and expert car enthusiast is also amazing though, so not like I have any room to complain.
Love hearing about how you went from where you were to where you are now. I would have never guessed you were 6’5”! 🤯 As another tall person (6’3”) I totally empathize with you about being too tall for certain things. I’m constantly hitting my head on stuff that my wife easily clears. Keep up the good work Mumbo and don’t lose the passion for what you do!!!
You literally took the words out of my mouth when you iterated the key being action. Great job continuing to pursue cinematography, even when your success in UA-cam content is so massive.
This video made me feel a lot better about how uncertain I am about what I want to explore in my life. Wonderful video and story Mumbo!! Hoping to find my own way into casual film someday.
Looming back and seeing how you get to a point is exciting. To see how an interest that starts up gradually ends up having great influence on you is fascinating.
Do what you like and feel comfortable with. If you feel the interest in something is dragging, move on to something new. That is what I learnt from Mr Jumbo's career class today.
Pretty cool to see that BMX sparked your passion in film making, I love BMX myself and am saving up so one day I can film my friends riding on a Sony a7III.
This is THE number one reason I wear my MUMBO FOR MAYOR tshirt!!! Your creativity videos are so inspiring. Thank you Oli. Thanks for inspiring people just sharing your story.
Thank you mumbo, thank you! I am super inspired right now thaks to your awesome content and this video. Hope you will grow and get better at what youre doing . What a man
This was the answer that many people want to know specially the don't know where to go. Moral lesson: Be passionate. if you think something, Try It. At the same time be a leaf flowing in the river. As time pass through many opportunities will flow in.
You’re an absolute mad lad. If it weren’t for you I would’ve not been the person I am today. I’ve used your videos for stress relief, inspiration, and for laughs. Thanks for doing what you do.
man when you were talking about listening to songs and imagining bmx montages over the top of that I felt it SO HARD!!! i do animation and every time I listen to a song I imagine what animation I would want to so over the top of it, it gets to the point where I dont really enjoy the song if I cant imagine something to go with it
My child is 8 yrs young, this gave me even more inspiration to encourage them to follow their own path and support them in all they'll do throughout so thanks MJ !!
That conclusion was actually very useful to me. There have been quite a few things that I've been putting off trying because I'm scared that they'll fail. I guess you made me realize that there really is no harm in trying. Thank you!
Love this. So, basically, do what you enjoy doing and let it go if your interest fades. Use your intuition, be flexible and move forward. Thanks for all of your content, Mumbo! It's always so refreshing to watch.
No, it wasn't quite rambling. You said what I needed to hear, and thank you for that. I really, really enjoy almost all your content. I'm not that into cars, but the movie tech behind makes me watch them even so. Keep grinding; you're amazing!
Great video Mumbo! Honestly it was pretty awesome to see how you got to where you are now and you’ve inspired me to try out some stuff that I am a bit afraid to do. Thank you!!
