Meh, I kinda hate this speech. I realize he is like 3 years old or whatever, but his laugh drives me fucking crazy. And I pretty much disagree with him. Thinking is crap. I know because I overvalued it in the past. You can't remember new thoughts without learning new things. I notice that information technology is best to cascade equally much data in my brain every bit possible and I come upward with important insights during the gaps, like when I'm waking up in the morning or driving in my car.
I had a "Newtonesque" time menstruum, in a way. Many of them, really. Always since high school, I had gotten this urge to forget everything I know. I felt like my heed was contaminated with delusion, similar I couldn't trust what I knew and discern whether or non I was simply existence manipulated. I spent an entire summer in one case actively avoiding learning anything. I felt dull at the end of it.
This wasn't the stop, though. I always somewhat had that belief. I spent from 2008 to like peradventure 2011 in an active war against thinking, and let me tell you, information technology was miserable. Information technology had a lot to do with Buddhism, but I think my interest in Buddhism was what came 2d to my innate desire to liberate myself from thoughts which might be delusional. Buddhism seemed an appropriate path. Any time I noticed I was thinking for those few years, I would stop myself and try to focus on concrete experience. This was nervus racking in that it was incommunicable, my thoughts e'er wandered. I was so stubborn I wouldn't surrender for years though.
I'd also meditate. A lot. It came to a head in 2013, really. I put everything I had into it. I stopped exposing myself to ANYTHING. Everything felt like it was influencing me. I quit my job. I stopped watching TV and reading things. I spent all day every solar day focused on my mind and what was going on in it. I paced for hours every 24-hour interval, and when I wasn't pacing I was outside walking. I'd lay in bed the rest of the fourth dimension. Literally. My globe shrank to the size of my skull. It was a waking nightmare.
Yous can simply be stubborn for and so long. When you spend so many nights in desperation and realize nothing is happening, you inevitably start to realize something is wrong. I'd say I put Newton to shame, merely then again, I incertitude he actually spent all his time thinking during those months of isolation. I'k sure at that place were books there. Even if there weren't, Isaac Newton is Isaac Newton. Geniuses tin do things most people tin can't. Near of us volition never reinvent math and physics, for instance. Ergo, it'southward not a bad thought for us to only learn equally much as we tin can about what those things are equally they are.
And that'south exactly what I do these days. I acquire as much as possible. I think as piddling as possible. I read because my thoughts go silent when I read, and that is pleasant. Information technology's almost similar it's meant to be. It's just who I am. That's how you know you similar something, how you know yourself. Some people enter flow by dancing, or working, or watching sports. When I practise something I hate, I know it because I start thinking a lot. Ordinarily information technology'due south not nearly good stuff. Usually it'southward more than similar how I was wronged in the by, how fucked I am in the future, stuff similar that. Stuff I'd rather not carp with much.
Back to the video. I dunno. I just don't think I like being lectured by a x year old. It'south more of an "awww aren't we proud of this kid, he is giving a spoken language" matter. And that'southward non what I'm into.

[MENTION=4489]zago[/MENTION] He'due south probably laughing because he's nervous or excited or feeling stiff emotions. I laugh like that too, just now with a deeper vox.
I concur with him. I don't think he is talking about anything other than allowing yourself to geek out, and relish somethings without being bound by past conventions. What is wrong with that?
Buddhism seems great for finding residue and peace of mind. Merely the kid is just enjoying himself doing things that people might consider difficult. This is particularly a large deal considering he was non supposed exist able to practice anything by the experts. He will, similar all people I think, come to a point where he needs residuum. Merely keep in mind, in many ways, equilibrium is death (or at least the end of big changes).

[MENTION=4489]zago[/MENTION] He's probably laughing because he'south nervous or excited or feeling strong emotions. I laugh similar that also, but now with a deeper voice.
I concur with him. I don't think he is talking near annihilation other than allowing yourself to geek out, and savour somethings without being bound by by conventions. What is wrong with that?
Buddhism seems great for finding residual and peace of heed. But the kid is but enjoying himself doing things that people might consider difficult. This is especially a large deal because he was non supposed be able to do anything by the experts. He will, similar all people I think, come to a point where he needs residue. But proceed in heed, in many ways, equilibrium is decease (or at least the stop of big changes).
Ugh ok so I watched the video again, I had watched it a few months agone and my beliefs were based on that. I think there is some half-truth in it, but I think the primary problem is it is just unclear. Information technology'south actually not a question of thinking vs. learning, then. Jacob didn't fingerpaint like other kids, he did his own thing--basically. Then why isn't the video called "follow your elation" or something? I can get behind that (in fact that'due south basically what my previous mail service is saying). I kind of see what he ways with the whole thinking vs. learning matter, only it just isn't every bit clear as it could be.

The kid was 11. His talk was certainly clearer than mine would have been at that age.
Jacob being precocious in i arena does not necessarily mean that he will be equally adult in all of them.

I don't call up he does math with numbers, only with lines.
Also, he seems really ADHD.
