      This may turn out to be a less popular opinion, but I honestly find the classic video style better than interviews. It's like you speaking solely to your audience vs you speaking to some other dude. The first one is naturally more engaging and condensed

      I LOVED the new style, mixing your direct lessons towards us with the interview conversation highlighting Charles’ insights.
      I feel like this way you get more variety and breadth in, it can give a break from zooming in into ever more specific workflows in the latest productivity software. Also, I think Charles was a great choice as an interview partner!
      Keep inspiring and exploring!

    If you go deep enough, anything can become interesting. And through depth, you develop intuition. Intuition occurs when we do things naturally - when there is no struggle entailed in our thinking process. When you do and feel things intuitively you operate on a level beyond comprehension. It is the level where you know the outcome of something before you even deal with it. This is the secret behind most geniuses and this is probably the first step to any form of mastery.

    Couldn’t agree more with the points made here! From spending the last year learning a bunch of new different type of skills (like the piano, skateboarding, gymnastic) - although all of a very different nature, the one constant in any given learning process has always been consistent, goal-oriented brick building. Always entering each practice session with a very particular and concrete goal in mind, no matter how insignificant that goal might seem, is the way to go, since it almost always guarantees some degree of progression (which is important obviously for learning, but also for motivation and self-efficacy). Thanks for the awesome video, Thomas!

    I can definitely tell observational skills helped me improve my art. I become so analytical to the smallest of details people usually walk by unnoticed. How the sun hits a specific object and gives the color a greater vibrancy and glow. How the highlight on a persons' skin has a slight texture and looks differently on different parts of the body. How you can read a person just through their body language, how they stand/walk etc. I would just stare at a master painting for an hour, trying to analyze every little brush stroke and understand WHY they did that.
    I also improved a lot doing master studies. I adore Sargent, Rembrandt, Rubens, Velazquez etc. and replicating their art with a very analytical eye helped me improve greatly. I really think like you said, the intent helps a lot -- my goal was to understand not just replicate.

    when I learn a new skill, I usually just dive deep into the learning material, be it tutorials, videos, books, classes, website, anything. And when I have a better idea of WHAT I am learning, it’s easier to guide yourself through the skill

    Thank you for making this great video and it'll defnately be use ful to all of us! Just a personal things, I feel that I would appreciate more softer music on the background becuase it makes it a little difficult to pay attention properly to the words sometimes. Thank you once again!

    Specific to guitar, I found it difficult to practice because of life being so busy. I normally find it challenging to sit down to practice rather than noodling/having fun. I know it is not advisable but I found guitar tabs (specifically on Guitar Pro) to be helpful along with the videos of the guitar parts being tabbed. Right now, I'm doing exactly this with Tim Henson's (one of the best guitarist alive IMHO) vids along with his GP tabs. It has been super helpful because I can sit down and focus on the song/parts/techniques I need to perfect. Cheers!

    1. Deleberate practice ( learn something new daily)
    2. Build fundamentals / essential small skills first
    3. Listen / observe, imitate and then upgrade.

    Takeaways
    1. Before starting practice, set a goal for you and after you get up ,just check wheter you accomplish the particular goals and what are the hurdles you faced.
    2. Breake down the topic into sub topics and practice them .
    3.Don't spend all your time doing practice what other people do practice, and learn f4om them. "Watch and copy them"

  • @TheGuruNetOn

    The last part of the video is actually talking about Meta cognition. Observing patterns about patterns. Types. That's what the Music Theory stands for.
    Copying someone only gives you access to what that person said. Meta cognition allows you to identify what *new type* of thing they said. This basically allows you to add one or more tools to your toolkit.
    X never saw a hammer-nail/screw-screwdriver. Then X saw it being used. Now X is aware that force can be applied in a new way.
    The innovation part might come about if you devise a hybrid tool like a hammering screwdriver or a screwing hammer. Or whatever.
    OTOH, one could use diff tools in combinations to achieve diff effects.
    It's possible to *transfer* such observations across fields. Like painting is a lot about mixing colours to get different shades. If each colour is mapped to a tool or a taste it might be possible to transfer the pattern across different fields.
    Colour + food.
    Sound+ shape.
    etc

    I love this video not only for the new stuff I learnt, but also helping my realize certain things that I did that lead to me learning a skill. Two examples are watching anime and watching A_Seagull. just through watching a ton of anime I learnt a bunch of words that now I am learning japanese (well starting again after exams and yes I know the issues of learning japanese from anime) helped speed up the learning process. As for A_Seagull, watching him play Apex lead to me learning a lot about positioning, engagement, things I never would of known if I hadnt observed a ex-pro player play.
