As a gifted child, my parents were surprised when I learned to write and read on my own at the age of 4. I had a deep interest in books and enjoyed forming words by arranging letters on a blackboard, which contributed to my rapid learning. During primary school, I found subjects to be relatively easy, consistently earning grades of 8, 9, and 10. However, as I transitioned to high school, everything changed, and I realized that I needed to put in effort to achieve good grades. Suddenly, I felt less intelligent compared to my classmates. Alongside academic challenges, I also struggled with my social life during adolescence, leading me to perceive myself as a failure. Consequently, I embarked on a journey of learning various skills, such as playing the guitar, singing, embroidery, 2D animation, 3D modeling, and skating. However, I found myself randomly abandoning these pursuits. To this day, I remain uncertain about my true preferences and interests, as I tend to quit both the things I started and those I never pursued further 🙃

If you need external help, ask your parents if they can afford you a therapist so that you have a safe space to talk and get to know yourself better.

Unpopular take: it's ok to "quit", aka move on from things that no longer fulfill you, especially if it's not that you're leaving the activity behind because it's too hard and makes you feel like giving up, but it feels like it's not worth it anymore, and no longer bringing what it used to give you. Just like relationships, moving apart isn't necessarily a failure! People grow, change and evolve, and not all progress is linear, either. You're not either improving or quitting.

Former gifted child here. I remember being praised by my peers for my intelligence growing up, but my parents rarely took my interests or goals seriously. I won't write my autobiography because an article from The Onion titled "Man Waiting Until Parents Die Before Doing A Single Thing That Makes Him Happy" summarizes it well enough. I started getting interested in data science from watching your videos, Tina, but I have yet to break through. Being in the early days of the next big tech revolution seems to be complicating matters. Managers either seem to be afraid of A.I. or expect new hires to be seasoned experts on new technology. Meanwhile, folks like me are struggling to keep our heads above water amid the deluge of new systems and techniques. It's becoming easy to fall into the comfortable pattern of assuming failure and balking when confronted by obstacles.

I was in gifted classes in elementary and middle school. In high school, I rapidly discovered that my reward for superior work was just more work. "Oh, you did all the even problems in 5 minutes while the rest of the class is still working? Now do the odd problems, and if you don't, I'll mark you down." "Oh, you finished the test in 10 minutes instead of 40? Just sit quietly. No, you can't read because it isn't an open book test and I don't care that you already turned it in, I'll mark you as cheating even if it's a novel, which you shouldn't be reading in this class." "Well, I can see why the other kids don't like you when you keep breaking the curve." Yeah, I learned to not stand out in high school. In college, however, I had no problem putting my foot down and talking back, because I made certain I could back up what I said. If I disagreed with the instructor, I did my homework and wouldn't back down just because the instructor tried to assert authority. In a trigonometry class, I and one other student got a different answer than everyone else. The teacher tried to just say I was wrong, but I actually stood on my desk and stomped my foot and reminded the teacher that trigonometry is based on proofs, not on I-said-so. Turns out there was an issue with the word problem, it left out a factor that depended on your assumptions as to which way the angles opened, towards each other or away. "You're supposed to assume they open away", she said. I held up the textbook and said "show me". We got credit for our answer. Other problems specified which way, so there was no reason for me to assume. I got an award for creating an original proof for an old problem, which shows I did know my stuff. I was just as bad in other classes, AND on the rare occasion I was proven wrong I readily admitted it. That's how we learn.

I'm AuDHD (autism and ADHD), and I finally figured out how to clean stuff without burning out. I make tiny habits to clean in such tiny pieces that it doesn't feel like I'm stopping to clean. For example, I clean something tiny in my bathroom every time I use it, even if that means just using a piece of toilet paper to "mop" a 5 inch by 5 inch piece of the floor. I keep a wash cloth in the room to wipe down the sink after each time I wash my hands, because it gets water everywhere. Whenever I see the mirror has a splotches, I get some TP wet, wipe it down, and then dry it. Works like a charm! My toilet has a bidet, so I wipe the water off the toilet, which ends up cleaning a fair bit of it regularly. Plus I dust the toilet a bit quickly when I notice it. And I quickly use the toilet brush whenever I see the need. I used to never clean. Now I clean multiple times a day, in tiny little pieces, and it has actually become FUN!! I even clean a little part of public bathrooms now, too, just to keep the habit up and because it is fun. As for laundry, when I get dressed in the morning, I try to pick from my clean clothes basket when I remember. Whenever I change my clothes, I try to remember to take out at least one thing from the basket to put away. And when I take off a shirt or something that is still clean, I immediately out it away in the closet. I gave specifically made it so all the hangers are on one side, and developed the habit of taking the shirt off the rack along with the hanger, rather than just taking off the shirt, so that hangers are easy to find.

Sounds like me, I can never stay in a job for long, I get physically and mentally exhausted after a bit and I believe this is because I don’t feel like I’ve been made to work for companies as I don’t agree with their values, I feel like a slave working towards someone else’s success, I feel less valued and just unhappy. I am working towards my own goals to be able to work for myself, do something I love, help other people, be financially free and flexible - work whenever I want! That’s my dream 🥳

I was a gifted child growing up in elementary school but things changed a lot for me as early as middle school; I never was motivated to work hard because I never had to before, yet when I got Cs on tests I took it as I'm not naturally smart enough to do better. It took me until senior year of high school and early college to finally wake up and realize my mindset was garbage. If I'm going to be successful in life I'm going to need to work very hard regardless of my intelligence. I can't expect to be handed things for being smart, and no one should. I think not getting perfect grades in middle school and most of high school has helped me deal with failure and knowing I'm not always going to be perfect, but I can totally understand how someone like me could still struggle with it even at my age.

I also have so much more insight into myself and how I function as I related to nearly everything you said. Along with this, I have new strategies of thinking and helping myself work through these.

Thank you so much for this video- I never write comments half as long as this so I hope that goes to show how much I loved it.

Idk how old you are, but I doubt it matters. As long as you can financially support yourself and have a plan to support yourself when you're too old to work or if you get injured, then you're good! Do whatever you want, even if it means switching jobs a lot. Have another job lined up before you quit the last, to keep it stable for you and anyone you're supporting. It's your life. Have some (planned) fun! You don't have to follow the boring template society offered. The way I see it, we learn from the pain of difficulty, so why avoid the pain of difficulty? Have some fun trying different things at different times. Most of the judgement you fear from others is just imagined, anyway. Be wise. Support yourself and your family. Be ready for retirement and emergencies. Don't hurt anybody. Honor your life. Serve others. You can do those things while still having fun with different jobs, hobbies, and interests.

I like that I am interested in many things and I think the way the world views success needs to change. Being successful doesn't mean making the most money or having the most trophies. Sometimes being successful just means leading a happy life where you strive to be a good person. Where I used to see my failure (particularly in sports growing up) I now see it as a victory of sorts. I may have never won a trophy but I stayed and I kept trying even though I failed over and over and over again. I am grateful that a video like this exists out there and I feel like so many people will benefit from this.

I took your quiz and I am a ditto, but thank you so much for this video and I need to make sure that I choose something that I know why I chose it, and failure is apart of life so we need to keep going.

This may at first sound trivial, but is actually an eye-opening video. Great that you show how to deal with the problems, I do not regret subscribing. I got the ditto from the test, however, in my opinion, at different stages of life, different "mixed persona" can be enabled, consisting of one or more showstoppers. Today is New Year and I'll need to stop my greediness from taking over the 5d chess board during yearly planning. If it wins, tomorrow I may doom spiral...

I am a gifted child. I knew that this fucked me up in some ways (perfectionism), but I didn't realize that this played a role in my lack of grit when it comes to hobbies, personal ambitions, and art. I didn't realize that I didn't get encouraged for trying and putting in effort. I was just expected to be good at everything with no help. Because I was intelligent, I didn't have to try as hard in K-12, but this backfired when I went to art school. So much of art is discipline. My parents never really encouraged me to do the arts or recognized my efforts, only the end results if they could brag about it to others. Overall, your video is having me realize an area I need to reparent myself in: recognizing my own efforts and my journey regardless of whether I fail or not. I am fortunate to be dating someone who does this naturally. Rather than praising my intelligence, they praise my efforts. I also had a therapist in the past that encouraged my efforts. Thank you for this awareness raising, Tina, and I also thank all of the people who loved me who recognize my efforts even when I fail.

This all has been reallyyy helpfullllll. But I also gotta say that I loveeee how shiny your face looks!!!! love ittt

Yeah same, I went from sweating myself aiming to get into architecture school, to my second choice BSc chemistry, then to 2 different diplomas in architecture & arts. And now I'm doing AI related work after a data science bootcamp. I also bartended, was a barista, sold some cars and little things on social media in my college years. Plus I have a dog and sing & upload some covers in my spare times as well. Just live a life fully, your job & income source is to have more choices in life, not the other way around.

I feel so much with this video, it's so me. I'm still all over the place playing like 7 musical instruments, working with coding, writing, digital art, traditional art, gaming, worldbuilding, roleplaying, sculpting, jewelry making etc etc etc... I can't seem to choose just one thing to focus on. And I always quit after a time of hyper-focus and then I pick it up again a year later... I don't know. But I'm autistic and have ADHD as well so I don't know if that's it with me ;) But shall I be completely honest? I like the way I circle around things and hyper-focusing and pick up things later. I don't feel the need to change quite yet.

thank you Tina 🥲

Thank you ! I have the ''never start nothing because it's too scary to start something new'' type of things... Learning everyday something, or improving something to quit my full time job but because I'm not good enough I stick to my full time job... 8years now... Learning how to code a website at the moment ^^

I kind of half-start a lot and get stuck in analysis paralysis. Maybe I even buy a book or an online course. But yeah, so scary, in my case fear of failure.

Love your video!! So coool, thank you

Thank you Tina, you have no idea how much you are helping me.

aww I'm so glad!!

I've seen this video around my feed for quite a while now and I have never felt like a video was so suspenseful hahaha, thus I've put it off for so long. I want to pursue so many things and I do resonate with having a renaissance soul, thank you for bringing some awareness to me regarding this part of my life. 10/10 made me cry LOL

Tina, do you do your own editing? I love your videos and the funny bits in between, so cool! Keep it up 😊🥰

This video was actually really helpful, thank you. (:

I can relate this, after graduation and failed to get job i was hopping from one skill to another. Now i am doing graphic designing and learning python programming for games.

you got this - let's stick this through 🤗🤗🤗

I think you perfectly realize it is a quality and not a drawback to quit. I also did ballet, but I was perfectly aware I cannot earn a living with ballet. I was good in mathematics, so the path was clear. But soon I realized mathematics was not enough to earn a living. Instead of quitting, I continued with a PhD in mathematics applied to insurance in Switzerland. From bad to worse. I switched as you to data science, but it didn't work either. So now I try KZread, but I don't get views, like a curse. You have incredibly many millions of views, congratulations! My dream was never to become a millionaire, but just to be able to live a decent life, which is no possible nowerdays. Merry Christmas!

When I was a kid, they asked me what I wanted to be...and I wanted to be.. a Laywer, Veterinarian, Writer, Artist, Baker... and I remember my mother saying 'You'll be in school forever.' I honestly loved that idea, and then spend 7 years in undergrad, moving between majors (after spending a few months in art school and leaving that), then graduated in Psychology but.. like.. I straddled Psych, Anthro, and Bio.. then went into my masters for Cog and Behavioral, but didn't finish that, am now in heathcare, and now circling into paint supplies, potentially, as a business. So yeah, OOFTA.

Hi Tina I definitely related to this video. I took your test and I Self-Sabatoge. I tried to sign up for your 45 minute zoom call but when i clicked it took me back to try the quiz a second time Thanks for giving me some insights into why I do things the way I do

ooops I can't figure out how to remove that sorry! I don't have a zoom call option but for some reason it's there 😅

Three sylabs U-A-U. Your analogy is just terrific! I'm a mix of ditto and non-ditto hehehehe Self-sabbotage: A school teacher humiliated me badly around my 10years. To make it worst, my OCD started getting unberable. Long story-short, I love your videos. Thank you for existing!!!! Ps.: I was waiting for the opportunity to sign up for Brilliant. Thanks for the 20% ☺

thank youu!! it's crazy how something seemingly small when we were little can impact us so much huh

I was considered a "gifted" kid. It wasn't until my mid-20's that I FINALLY learned how to be okay with failing at something.

The Renaissance soul was relatable, I did more digging and yes it sounds like me. I have held every tech job from security positions IT tech, Network engineer, system admin, web Dev and full stack. I have just decided to go a completely different career which is being an artist when I was younger I wanted to be a manga artist but my parents said drawing will not make me money so I decided to go into tech but that was a bad idea. so now I am doing concept art, game art style and anime style if not this will try one more thing in IT which will be software engineering . I haven't began yet, but that was my next move. finding a career for me has been challenging being in tech has been a very boring and annoying experience for me. I hope this helps me out little this is getting frustrating lol.

Hey Tina, this video is wonderful, it helps me a lot. It is definitely now in my top 5 favourite videos and I have seen probably thousands of videos. I am at university and struggling to finish my degree because I can't decide what to do next, because I got bored with the topic of my degree and tend to spend my time with the interest I have that month. Do you or anyone have some tips on how to biuld a career or at least do the first steps after graduating when having fast changing interests? I feel like the whole world is in my reach but I don't know where to start because so many things sound interesting, but I also tend to get bored really fast and I need to earn money.

Perfect time to bring this up

So.. I'm a ditto and a group 1 person :( I'm in a great place in my life to try and fail more right now, so I'm going to try a lot this year :) I just started my KZread journey and will be starting a Twitch stream journey in another week or so! Thank you so much for this video!! I needed it!

I think there is absolutely nothing wrong with changing interests and obsessing about things for a while and moving on. Have you heard of the "scanner" personality type? Barbara Sher wrote a lot about it. You might be one of us :) Society tends to see it as a negative trait when someone doesn't commit to things forever or for a long time, but some people crave change and new things and are easily inspred by so many things. To me, that is a beautiful thing and it makes life a lot more interesting and fun.

Okay this was such a weird one for me because I so did not expect to get Ditto as my archetype. I'm sure I'm not the only one who recognize aspects of every type in themselves but this was unexpected. But at the same time, I started to go to university for a course that's heavy on CS... because I did a ton of research on humanities and people kept saying they regret not having studied something that would get them a job and a lot of money much more easily. My immediate friends and family were kinda against it but in the end it was still others' opinions and not my gut feeling that made me go for this desicion. I spent the last 2,5 years struggling because I'm just so bad at math and coding so obviously it brought me a lot of pain listening to others. I would love to try out something creative on my own but I'm scared to commit because I lost money when I tried to become an entrepreneur in the past. Ugh, why are these things so dang difficult.

Thank you this reall helped

I don’t know if I was a gifted child, but certainly I was praised a lot for my intelligence and creativity as a child. As an adult, I want to be a writer, but my creative writing mentor and I had a very problematic relationship. She criticised my favourite author until I felt so ashamed of liking and enjoying that author's work, that I gave away all my books. I was definitely a Ditto with my mentor! And she praised my creative writing skills (though often laced with backhanded criticism) to the point that it became tied to my self worth. I used to love writing because it was fun, and made me feel like my heart was singing, like a child at play, now I can’t bring myself to write anything, because I'm not good enough and I never will be. My writing became about trying to earn my mentor's approval and praise. I still dream of becoming a writer, because of the happy childhood memories I have of reading, watching and writing stories. My mentor said she didn’t think I really wanted to be a writer, because I told her it was no longer fun, but it wasn't fun anymore once I stopped writing for myself and started writing either for my mentor or people online. Also, my mentor would compare my writing to that of my online friends, tell me mine was better which led to me developing a superiority complex. I still want to write. But I don't think I ever will now thanks to my mentor.

Loved the content, it was so uplifting and helpful and your energy is just astounding. If I can make a suggestion though... Harry Potter references might turn those in the LGBQT away from watching your video through. (If you are unsure why, I encourage you to do some research on JK rowling). That way everyone can comfortably watch your content and reap the benefits you have so graciously sewn. Happy new years!!

its nomal to cry wile waching your videos? it feels like I was waiting for this video my intire life, thank you so much

Timecode 5:42. Video paused, staring agape at the screen. "Let me know if you were a gifted kid who has this extreme fear of failure." Holy lightning bolt, Batman. I had never heard that correlation before. I feel a physical reaction to this revelation. I wonder if (finally) understanding the association will help me to overcome it. I love the concept of leaning into having a Renaissance Soul. It's been a continual conflict running up against all the times I've tried-and failed-to zero in on one thing and do it and only it well. Thank you!

For the last two years I worked as a full time substitute teacher at a school. My job was to show up in the morning and they'd tell me the subjects I had to teach that day according to the teachers that were absent. I ended up teaching every single subject in that school eventually. That has been probably the most fulfilling job for my hyper active jack of all trades mind. Of course I could just show up and do the activities but Most of the time I ended up teaching the class because I liked to research or straight up knew about the topic beforehand. I moved on from that job this year because I wanted to teach the thing I studied for and needed more stability, but I really liked the job and everybody was really surprised with how good I could manage every subject, considering it was a job most of the other teachers would hate doing. It helped me realize that yeah maybe my mind is special and has talents that differ from what society usually expects you to do but that doesn't mean I'm wrong.

Related to most of this video, lol. Any small failure makes me think I won't ever make it, I constantly start spiraling in negative self talk, I work too hard and then stop suddenly. Not sure what to fix even now, lol

I'm just overwhelmed, don't trust people, and have to implement my ideas alone and share my ideas with myself. So I just don't.

This video makes me really emotional, but everything you said is true. I feel I relate to all the types you said

baby steps over a few months can make the world of difference 🤗🤗🤗

Output based goals vs input based goals is such a great idea. I'm going to try this mindset shift tonight and see what happens :)

This was actually really good

visiting high school and only have As trying to recover from anorexia battling against depression maintaining my friendship with my best friend work at home (cleaning, doing the washing, cooking, taking care of cats) learning Swedish outside of school this is less than i thought

Think we're very similar. I've dropped out of education 5 times (I've been to university 3 times but only have one undergrad degree). Built a different YT channel to 20k subs but even that don't motivate me. But recently, I spoke a psychiatrist and he told me something about my psychie that I never knew and I finally feel like I know myself better now.
