Enjoyed this pep talk

Good dose of perspective

I got about half way through the video and had to stop.  All the skipping from one camera to the other and fast patter annoyed and distracted me and I couldn't begin to try and focus on what he was trying to say, and what he was trying to say came across to me as being very disjointed and in some places even contradictory.  He mentions that he has ADD, so perhaps this has a knock-on effect to the style of his presentation.  To my knowledge I don't have ADD, but I felt as though I had after watching some of his video.

@BillDL oh sorry lol. I do have ADHD so perhaps that's why it resonated with me

BillDL

Geez, I would have thought the exact opposite would have been true.  I'll try and watch it again in its entirety and see whether I can follow it better despite the distractions.  Maybe I've just become less patient and my powers of concentration have waned as I've passed 60

@BillDL I wouldn't watch it again if his presentation style annoys you lol. The main takeaway for me was to practice one thing at a time until it's completely effortless, then move on to the next thing, could take days, could take weeks. He also touches on getting into the right headspace to perform and not being cocky about your ability

Hahaha yeah I'm 15 seconds in and there's been 12 camera changes. Just close your eyes.

It's to cater to the TikTok generation with a 10 second attention span. Now this is happening! Now we're over here! This video is just talking so we're going to split the screen in 2 and to keep your attention we've got a mobile racing game for you to watch on the bottom half of the screen!

Honestly I didn't notice the editing, it just felt like a normal pace to me lol

viz

18 camera cuts in the first 30 seconds - I couldn’t watch it
