I am so impressed with your presentation, your intelligence, your brilliance, your humour. You are an amazing teacher. I am 73 years old and its crazy that I am even listening to this. I have been studying the neural sciences for 12 years and must admit that I have never heard a more brilliant explanation. Just love it.
I literally solved a problem just by watching this video of yours. I genuinely believe that the world today lacks problem-solving skills. The issue is that society has suddenly adopted emotions and prioritized them over logic, critical thinking, and structured problem-solving. There has been a significant shift, pushing humanity toward a so-called spiritual awakening—forcing us to adapt to a world ruled by emotions. However, as old as your videos may be, they will soon resonate with men of all ages because we are in deep trouble. We have lost the ability to think critically and logically to solve our problems. The era of men relying on therapy must come to an end. Instead, the resurgence of logic and structured problem-solving must take its rightful place, as it is our true nature as creatures of reason. I am about to turn 40, and your content is unlike anything I have come across in the last ten years. Honestly, I found myself watching non-stop, absorbing every insight. My brain is on fire with excitement right now. Thanks a million Wish you all the best and hope you come back with new content enlightening this humanity with what you experience with the world. The markets and humanity are desperate for your content. Best Regards..
Ok bro, one thing I have to tell you, is that you are an amazing teacher. I hope you end up becoming a computer science professor or start selling courses or something. Your teaching style is so easy to understand as well as very entertaining. Thanks for these videos mate!
Dude, please post these kinds of videos more often. You truly have an amazing gift. Continue sharing your thoughts and wisdom.
Dude i just want you to know that your video on intuition was a game changer for me and it might be the only reason I'm able to save my grades. Thank you so much for your hard work!!!💗
This video posseses the best methods for me on teaching viewers the skill they wanted •Talks at a relaxed pace •Uses simple diagrams •Includes teeny tiny humor which is great by the way Please keep uploading videos related to increasing intelligence 👍
This was a game changer for me. I'm preparing for stage-1 olympiad mathematical contest of my country, and all of this has helped me immensely. Thank you so much. 😊
I love watching videos like this while I’m high, and I am so high right now but so intrigued by your videos! Thank you, kind sir! 😎👍🏼
Love this series. Please provide one practical example as well like in the field of maths. Thank you.
-Schakels in “omdat” verkorten, naar de uiteindelijke, je doet iets hier omdat je daarme dit wil bereiken en daarmee dat andere etc etc en dat doe je uiteindelijk voor een bepaald doel, maar haal de schakels er tussen weg, en denk en herinner het uiteindelijke doel -Drawing, making it 3d, dont make it too big, verbally saying what you see, look at parts, ad parts gradually, practice taking less and less time Generator part and explorer part, filter between them but you might control it, past info an experience help choses the info that is more elaborate and relevant and more correct When procrastinating, hink of the nice experiences it might give, and bad ones if you Dont. So hoe nice if you do and how bad if you dont. Five types of innovative/Creativity thinking to get the ball rolling: aesthetic thinking, inspirational thinking, divergent thinking, convergent thinking lateral thinking. Divergent and convergent are most common wats to foster that. More stuck, more relax the filter 9:30 -Quote: Bad news for many people: you Can learn and improve
The brain is super flexible. We have to squeeze it while we can❤
I'm starting in the dev world and probably this video gonna help me alot, ty man. You're doing a great work for the one who seek this kind of content.
I think you should do more of this, Colin. Cause when I look at the problem, my mind is just blank. Like, take 2Sum - if you know the approach, you'll solve it. But if you don't and never done anything similar - get out of here.
I am currently recovering from OCD. After 4 years of suffering from OCD, i learned that our brain has tremendous potential for creativity. Despite knowing that the thoughts are just OCD and i should not give in a do the compulsions, i still fell for its tricks (and the anxiety ofc). It always bought a variant of the same theme every now and then. One theme can last for years without running out of variants.
- The video discusses how to awaken and enhance the analytical problem-solving mind through scientific understanding of creativity, and not through drug use. - The definition of creative problem solving is the ability to receive a task or problem and produce a creative solution that is new to you and useful in solving or addressing the problem. - There are three main parts of the brain that contribute to creativity: the generator, explorer, and filter. - The generator is an idea factory that generates a bunch of random ideas, both good and bad, that are given to the rest of the brain. - The explorer takes the ideas from the generator and explores them to see if they have any merit in solving the problem or if they can be learned from. - The filter filters out bad ideas from the generator before they reach the explorer. - Both the generator and the filter are mostly automatic, while the explorer is both manual and automatic. - There is a relationship between the conscious and unconscious parts of the brain, and understanding this relationship can make it easier to figure out how to improve creativity. - To improve creativity, one can practice generating ideas, exploring them, and filtering out bad ideas.
I already kind of had a vague idea of some of the stuff in the video but the way you explained them with pictures and structure improved my understanding so much!
creative problem solving = do creative task, come up with something new, frame that as a problem and exercise creativelly solving creative is an ability to produce something that is bith novel or original and has utility that valuable to someone creative process : use past experience the information that we already know to produce something that we dont know new for experiment how do creative work scientifically = generatir ab idea factory that generate a bunch of random idea, but many of these ideas are garbage and some are maybe good generator => filter => explore = find detail, pick the particular idea and focus in a manual and auto way improve the concious and unconciosiosuly for make better decisions, more usefull details concious = exploring and filtering unconciously = generator more relevant ideas => more correct ideas => more detail ideas types of creativity : 1. insight when something sits in your mind then suddenly something idea pop up unexpetedly ( unconsiouslly generating the ideas without managing the process ) from active thought, past experience or information,newness unciciouss => cocncious management to process that idea into creation concious and uncocious => focus =>problem => solution type of thinking : .1 convergent thinking = combining a bunch of different of information,past problems and new problems and do one solution 2. divergent thinking = taking a single of information and generate as many potential solutions how to create video = come up with various of ideas or a particullar idea unconciuoslly with divergent thinking or convergent thinking with a bit of insight mixed => some ideas are filter out based on which ideas video that perform well and bad performance ideas => explore the ideas through concious explorer awaiting more details with synteshize => focus and bring the ideas into creation creativity => draft video => convergent thinking = research divergent thinking and insight = add ideas how to improve creativity = two types 1. short term creativity = optimization creative process to come up with good ideas for some problem 2. long term creativity = optimize your creative brain as a whole to imrpove your creativity boosting for generator ideas with knowledge relaxing filter to filter out more ideas that are goox unleash creativity = write down every ideas that come up no matter how good or bad the ideas, it shutting up the filter, it is for unleash the crazy ideas that doesnt promising at first the more stuck you are the more you should relax your filter and considering the crazy ideas that doesnt promising at first Inspiration = problem details, small examples, problem variations, past experiencr, random things around you if a lot of ideas that are considering not usefull = mental reset and break for generating new ideas if you can only focus on one task or problem you reduce stress praticing a certain thing let you improve at that thing insight => various oppurtunity to show up by solving hard problems convergent thinking => pattern recognizition, finding common ideas/themes, relating similar problems divergent => general problem solving tips for strong generator : 1. train on one problem until you feel tired 2. diversify of problems ( many problems ) and depth ( not many a loteng of problems ) 3. if not depth = spend longer, if solving to quickly = go another harder problem, igf taking a long time = spend less time for filter : 1. for a single problem filter out by come up with correct idea, alternative ideas, wrong ideas, variety of your ideas
I literally take notes on your videos
