Totally agree. I'm 82 and I do math problems to keep my brain in gear. Concepts are sometimes difficult to understand, but like anything else, if you keep at it you can get better and better. I do suffer from occasional mind-slips, but I can still follow a mathematical argument. And, given the amount of free resources availble these days, there's just no excuse for not learning.
You are an inspiration for many 😊😮
I mean old man shoulder be free from all this stuff. But crap I realize that nothing in this world are absolutely gonna last forever. So focus with one thing is the most important
"There's no excuse for not learning."
Agree. It doesn't have to be maths, but it has to be something that challenges you.
I respect you for that
The worst thing you can do and the society can do, is to assume everyone is the same and implement one size fits all approach.
Sometimes, just dont be afraid to "fall behind" and work at your own pace.
I found that I tend to learn way more and retain information for a lot longer when I am relaxed.
Just re-submitted a test I failed in my online math class. And I passed! 🎉 87% 😊 This channel helps me stay patient and consistent. 💪
congratulations 🎉🥳
That's awesome!
So math sorcerer will math get me out of this simulation.
It can lead to many paths
Math is the simulation
@@Jacob-vl5zz so did we make it all up, invent it or was it given to us.
--it will sTimulate you to get YOURSELF out of the simulation--for you will gain awareness of the existence of other worlds, and see that they lay navigable before you!

He is one of the best and humblest guys with zero ego!!! Wish we had a Physics sorcerer too
100%
Thats actually a pleasant trend ive noticesed amongst very smart people, when i startet my Physics Studies last year i was really surprised how humble and down to earth my teachers are
The thumbnails are getting even better !
...crude thumbnails have a mighty appeal!
Matt Way on a segway here! I am teaching general chem 1 and 2, and I tell my students the SAME THING about studying just a little bit every day, like an hour to an hour and a half or so per day, so it sticks to their long term memory, rather than lasting only short term. Cramming everything leads to my students second guessing and forgetting a lot, and I just tell them to do a little bit every day! Same deal with handling multiple classes, being able to juggle multiple classes is so crucial.
Great video :)
Muscle memory and memory muscles.
i notice for myself, having a college force me to study 4 hours a day did quite a bit of damage to my excuse making. Now, if I see something that's vitally important, not "oh, every corner of the house isn't vacuumed," but serious stuff, I see the excuse, but it's faster and easier to slap it out of the way and start doing the thing that's important than it's ever been before. Except study, that's still hard, but other things... Yeah, age isn't an excuse. I started at community college again when I was 45, made an A in Algebra which I had no idea I could do. So, age won't work as a free pass, aside from that studies have shown that our memory improves if we go back to school in our later years and does stave off Alzheimer's and memory related problems.
On discipline:
"The centre of discipline: the degree to which we are able to hold ourselves in front of a challenge." - Robert Fripp
Thank you sir! I'm a medical graduate, I feel like I'm lost and I don't know what steps should I take next, this video popped up in this time when I'm really making excuses not take actions, making excuses are making us hesitant.. thank you again!
As a medical graduate, you are gonna make shit ton of money and get shit ton of girls. What are you lost about?
Awesome advice, thank you.
Hey Math Sorcerer, I've been watching your videos from about a year or two ago, now I'm not a regular viewer nor do I research a lot in mathematics but I always found your channel to be authentic, unique.
I seriously got to thank you for these videos like this though. You sitting Infront of us and spreading your wisdom really helps me at least and comforts, as if you are my bigger brother telling me things he wished he told his younger self.
This video was really a wake up call to my situation. I'm born in a third world country yet of course it's not the worst thankfully, but I'm trying to up my overall GPA I get to try and access a scholarship outside my country most optimally a country I know where I can live in peace and stability with my family. Although I got a problem, Procrastination.
I always procrastinate on my studies and just focus on primary subjects such as math and physics but even then I do the bare minimum work in them.
This is an unhealthy habit I've had since the beginning of this year sadly, the thing that irritates me the most is that I know I have talent in these scientific subjects, I feel gifted even, I love tinkering my brain in new concepts but not when I need to work on those concepts.
And this video related to me so much, it just showed that I always placed excuses. For example I had really nothing planned today and I have my philosophy and math exam tomorrow but then my friends called me and I placed the excuse that Its my friends (that I talk with everyday) so it'd feel wrong to not spend time with them. And that lead me to this video cause I've spent the entire day messing around instead of working on the things, not should but NEED to be doing.
And I was especially irritated after hearing that quote you mentioned about how hard work always beats talent but if talent does that hard work that's something to worry about, it just showed me if I don't use this potential I know I have inside of me then what's the point of it?
This isn't really me asking for any sort of help but rather an appreciation for you helping us, this small community you built.
I'm not sure if you do or don't understand your influence to us but if you don't just know you're changing the course of many peoples lives to the better globally.
I'm very thankful to have stumbled in your channel on a random day, thank you and may god bless you, give you and your loved ones great health and protection.
(Also my bad for this paragraph being lengthy 😅)
Great advice - just what I needed to hear! Thank you for another excellent video.
Great advice in general for all areas of life!
LOVE your videos, thank you for continuing to inspire and motivate me.
Nice video, thanks a lot
That is the main idea of “Atomic Habits” book. This book changed my life. I was thay guy but now, I am changed. Please read that book if you want to change your life.
It will be better if you also write something while you reading because there will be a lof ideas while reading it.
And also, in the beginning, “if you are 25,35,45,55,65,75 it doesn’t matter” speech was like how The Rock have a promo 😁 I laughed at that part
I'm 36 and at the top of my college math classes! :)
You are very inspiring, thank you. Your videos are immeasurably helpful and motivating
I’m 53 and just finished a software bootcamp. Grant I was a spry 52 when I finished .
I find the whole, “I’m too old” thing rather laughable 😅
THANK you very much! ❤️
Greetings from Blackforest ( Germany )🙋♂️
Thank you!
This Video was Exactly What I needed Right When I needed it, Just like all of your Videos, Thank you :)
good video to start our day with. Give it your all, no excuses! no procrastination! Time to go all in people!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
this helped me so much more then u could ever imagine, thank you 🧙♂️
Thank you dear mentor
extremely helpful. I do this now and didnt even notice!
i truly appreciate you dude. you remind me of who i want to be in the future. I'm in high school, and you have provided me with guidance that I truly could not have succeeded without so far, so thank you very much
Eres un crack hechizero mi youtuber de matematicas preferido eres el mejor por lejos tienes toda la razon.
Just to the thing. It works in writing, too. Even if casually flipping through a book, or sketching a small essay absent-mindedly, just do the thing! 😁 Anxiety usually lowers drastically, as the craft becomes a habit, a second nature. School is terrible at this, because any skill is operationalized and not internalized.
thanks a lot
Your videos are great! I'm currently attempting to solve the Riemann Hypothesis. We'll see if it works out for me...
If we can't solve it within the 21st century, we've failed as a species.
Good luck!!
I tried using Google AI to solve it....didn't work😂
What's so special about the 21st century ?
@@mlliarm i dunno, I've just had some odd experiences
@@aunox2701 thanks!
Thanks man
Thank you for this.
This is why I like Bukowski. Check out his "all the way" (aka "roll the dice") poem. Very inspirational. I think I'll go rewatch it for the 100th time. I think it pairs well with this inspirational video :). Be well Math Sorcerer.
I very much agree with this. I’m 25 and I started studying towards a maths degree part time in the past year whilst working full time. Just have to be willing to put in the work, although it does help if you’re obsessed with what you’re doing 😅.
Oh, it helped.
It helped this guy a lot.
Thank you
I’m 35 had to return to school picked chemistry and I started from algebra and I’m in calc 1 now. I’m not amazing but I am doing it.
That's great, best luck to you.
We’re gonna Crack the Matrix with this one.
thank you.
I didn't know discipline is buildable. Thanks Math Sorcerer.
Where quote 😢 but very nice video. Your videos are motivating me , thanks ! Greetings from Germany 😁
I think I posted the one that he was trying to remember in the comments.
"We keep moving forward, opening new doors, and doing new things, because we're curious and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths." -WD
Truth!
Math Sorcerer is becoming my psychologist! hehe
Jokes aside, thank you very much for these "random" videos, they're very valuable to me
I am teaching myself logic, set theory and math proof writing using How to Prove it by Daniel Velleman at 46....and i absolutely love it.its like going to the mental gym..doing math daily even if its only one problem. This summer I am making an effort to spend few hours a day teaching myself Abstract Algebra using Dan Saracino's book. Math Sorcerer thank you for recommending it!
Thanks
I needed and didn’t need to hear this today
I feel so defeated but I’m so close
The main problem I had when I entered university was that every professor assumed we knew stuff. I mean yeah I used computers in the past, but I didn't know how emails worked at their core (smtp), or how networks worked or how computer hardware worked. I was not a computer hobbyist before, I literally wanted to learn from scratch by knowing programming basics from school. This discouraged me, made me start creating excuses and finally I took a break around my third year. I now know stuff, and I certainly don't assume my students know anything, if they know something additional that's awesome, but they are entitled into not knowing when starting. Trying to not make excuses while everyone constantly tells you that you "should've known that" is irritating, while from the very start everyone says that but never shows you in a definitive way
Your videos are so inspiring to me! I'm an Undergrad at Uni doing a dual Bachelor in Accounting/Mathematics (minoring in Statistics). I am hoping to apply to PhD programs once I graduate. I actually have a question for you, I'm very interested in Topological Data Analysis, specifically persistent homology, and I'm hoping to use the concepts to work towards identifying anomalies and patterns in financial statements and transactions (blockchain is really interesting concept as well to follow). Do you know of anyone in the Topology field working with finance and/or utilising machine learning to do analysis? Thanks so much in advance, and your videos inspire me to work harder and believe in myself, I even have a 4.0 GPA!!! and a lot of it comes down to believing in myself enough to do my best work. I study about 10-11 hours a day, because I really LOVE what I'm doing.
best content ❤
"You gotta let go of that stuff from the past because it just doesnt matter. The only thing that matters is what you choose to be now". - Po from Kung Fu Panda 2
You’re right
I am music teacher and I was really bad at music few years back and now I teach and play guitar & piano very fluently. How? I did exactly what this guy is telling. Little bit everyday with focus even if you dont feel like doing and hard work indeed beats talent
Wise words no doubt! And yes you can learn Math at Any age.
We only have a finite amount time
Thanks Professor or should I say, Mentor... By the way, it would be cool if could share your opinion on a strange topic that I found which is called "Sacred geometry". It has some trippy properties and it's even beleived to be connected to the universe and some matters related to physics and maths.
I would like to hear about that too. As much as I hate geometry and was never good in it, this particular subject in geometry sounds cool.
I would like to ask you for one advice .
Im a civil engineer and i do a lot of maths i spend too much time on studying math .
What kind of math is required and what do you suggest me to study in order to enlarge my knowldge and that really helps in civil engineering field ?
Sorry for my bad english .
I would aprreciate your reply
Thank you in advance
The Math Philosopher
thanks I needed to hear this today. When I did maths I felt most alive. I was making the classic excuse " i'm too old"
@maths sorcerer, where did your maths journey begin? What drew you to maths? What inspires you to put so much effort into teaching people the wonder that is mathematics?
you are my idol.
What is the Walt Disney quote?
The example about not studying for the physics test because you use the calculus test as an excuse to put it off… that one hit home. I have done that exact illogical type of rationalization many times for university.
My main excuse is avolition from schizophrenia.
It's a legitimate reason for not being able to do something; however, it's all too easy to mistake feeling lazy for that symptom of my illness.
I’m in that ballpark
Try to reduce stress in your life. Meditation helps a lot. Read a lot, stay off social media. Find the right medications. Good luck!
"You have to sit down, and even if it’s not coming, you just have to start working. The muse has to find you working."
Christoph Niemann in "Abstract: The Art of Design," said this and I think it encapsulates the point of pushing through initial hesitation and for making excuses like waiting until your mood or the environment is "right" or "perfect". It was originally said in reference to being creative but it definitely still applies here.
"discipline is the ability to work when you're not motivated." - The math sorcerer
Does that go for mental health issues too? Theres absolutely NO way i can get help, snd im preparing for an almost life threatening exam and i feel so disheartened cuz of mental issues... Idk what to do anytime.
The Worst Thing You Can Do - Do nothing. Wrestling with the ourselves
I want to learn that section of mathematics that deals with equations and plotting graph and studying it. What is that section ? . I want to do this as I want to sharpen my graph interpretation skills and as I want to pursue finance I think that it is a necessary skill to be learnt.
awesome
Sir how can I buy all those math books that you shown in your videos
I am from India , we have exam called upsc in which we can take maths as a optional paper
So once go through the syllabus of upsc maths optional and suggest the books pls because you have great knowledge about different books which are available in market so pls help me
And here I thought the worst thing I could do would be to cry in front of you....
...but you make a fair argument.

Peace for all real persons ❤
The worst is listening to people who tell you that you need a "special brain" for maths (or anything else), that you need to have a certain level of intelligence (but they don't actually know what) to understand and learn maths. Those who say that parrot what they heard from adults while growing up, they gave up and are making excuses or want to harm you, by limiting your growth and your options (for instance, because they can't admit to themselves they didn't try hard enough and are envious you want to try).
Here we go 🤩

Thank you. My math exm is in 12 days. I'm scared of chemistry. I simply don't understand how people tackle that subject.
Sometimes you gotta flip the canoe in order to get down the river.
i was on the same boat, Chemistry never really clicked for me but I was able to work hard enough to get a good grade but cant say that I really understood large parts of it.
@@Crazylalalalala We never know everything. Even scientists don't know everything. We just try our best.
@@garglemeister7142 Didn’t understand what you said 😄
@@pearleunjoo5439 Trying to force an analogy; what I mean is you have to try and possibly fail. In doing so you'll still be closer to your goal if you never tried at all.
Maybe referring to "All our dreams can come true, if we have the courage to pursue them”.

If your excuse is "I'll never win if talent decides to work hard," you're effectively saying, "if I can't be the absolute best, I'll just be the absolute worst".

Is there a theory that unifies Algebra and Geometry?
Algebraic geometry or geometric algebra
Descartes did it first :)
@@mlliarm : Not Richard Horse? Again putting Descartes before the Horse. 😂
Love you professor, you have changed my mindset. Now I do math daily, it's like food for my brain can't do without it.
"hard work defeats talent" fully agree, look at what Cristiano Ronaldo did, he won 5x as the best football player in the world, competing shoulder by shoulder with Messi who is pure talent (after Pele Messi is the best football player of all time most people think, many say Messi is). Now think about it, how come Cristiano Ronaldo defeated Messi 5x? Hard work is the answer
Me sitting here watching this video instead of working on my calc hw when im already not doing well in the class :(
I am 56 and taking stats
Where'd he get that information from? Sourcerer strikes again. 🙂
Watching this video instead of doing what I should 👍
I didn’t study math for many years because „I’m just not good at it“. I learnt now there is only one way to get better at it… study it anyway 😂😄 it took decades to get to this conclusion…
Real Analysis, Topology, Mechanics, Discrete Mathematics, Calculus, Tensor Analysis etc..... Full Courses 100 Hours Video each. All these TH-camrs Make Full Courses. Please Make Free Courses on TH-cam itself. I did purchase one your udemy courses. These Videos Can be All Under One Roof.

Well we need to be honest. If you are sixty the odds are you will not use the new math skills. That means your motivation is like a puzzle solver. In general the older you are the slower your mind is, even memory gets worse. The good news is that there are much better resources now. A graphing calculator is within your means. There are free ones for your phone or computer. TH-cam has some fantastic stuff for free, much better than your high school teacher back when. I picked up my algebra,trig book for $15. If you have access to AI , it is good at math. Can't solve a problem, give your Internet a try. Unfortunately you still have to grind through lots of problems to get better.
My dad is 98. He's always learning something new, and much of it is practical. He really does use it. I'm always studying math, a little bit every day, and it is something I do use daily.
You watched them learn math or just accept what they're being "taught??" Did these people question any of it??
Yes, skydiving scares the pants off me, too; maybe it should only be attempted nakedly?
Yes. . . Naked skydiving MUST be the ultimate answer to what ails us! . . . Prepare !

More seriously:
The hope is that the talented will catch 'the math bug' and work like dogs to advance the art while strong with youth.
