Betta Breeding - How I Pick The Best Fish to Breed (Traits Overview) - Duration: 12:34.
Hey guys, Simply Betta here.
So in the last video I made I kind of prompted a little game or a little discussion.
I showed some images of some fish that came out of a spawn of mine and I asked you guys
OK how would you pair these fish to then create the next generation the best offspring.
What do you think are the best fish out of all these fish to move forward with?
And I got so many comments I couldn't even reply to all of them.
You guys obviously had a lot of fun!
I'll mention what the top picks were at them end of this video.
So now it's time for me to explain the fish I chose and why and the thought process that
I use when looking at a bunch of fish and then deciding what are the best ones?
I'll give a quick recap - the male and the female that I started with were both imports
that I had for a while.
The male was a black dragon halfmoon plakat.
This image isn't of him, I don't have a picture of him.
I forgot to take one I guess.
So this is just a fish that I pulled of the internet that looks like him.
Kind of.
And then the female is just a solid black halfmoon plakat female, really nice form.
Looks lind of like this fish, again, not my fish but that just looks a lot like her.
So quite a while ago I spawned these two fish, I raised the spawn, I got to the point where
the spawn was now adults and I went ahead and I chose the most promising males and females
out of the spawn to photograph.
I like to take pictures of fish and really get in there and analyze which are the best
ones.
Because a still image, a high res image of a fish, is a lot easier to work off of than
just by looking at a fish moving around really fast.
At least thats how I like it.
I like taking the easy route.
The lazy way.
I want to start by saying that in this batch of fish I'm not choosing based on colors.
The reason for this is because I spawned a really heavy dragon layer male to this solid
black female the first generation offsping they're obviously going to be black but they're
not going to have the full dragon coverage that I'm looking for.
They're gonna be partial dragons.
So I know that if I just pair two fish from this spawn together, the next generation is
going to have a lot more full dragon coverage.
So that's why when choosing out of all these fish I'm not looking at like I'm not focusing
on their color or how the blue irridescence looks on them or the ones with the fullest
coverage I'm not really worried about that.
I'm mostly just looking at the form of the fish I'm selecting for form.
I feel like doing that will make my next batch of fish even better.
So here are the image compilations that I made showing my males and my females that
I showed in my last video, all side-by-side because it's easier to get a good feel for
everyone that way and to be able to compare them that much easier.
So lets start by analyzing my male fish.
Here is a nicer compilation of all my males.
I have male A, B, and C, all brothers from the same spawn.
This is my thought process on how I analyze them.
The very first thing I like to look at in a betta fish is the body.
I'm looking for size and strength and specifically, I'm looking at the topline.
The topline is the curve or the slope of the top of the fish, of the back.
Kind of like this.
I'm looking for a nice smooth curve on the top of these fish.
Here's an example.
I'm going to draw a line on the top of this fish following the curve of the back and you
can see it's really nice and smooth and pleasant.
If I were to exaggerate the curve, you would see that the nose of this fish has a little
swoop to it, this little "fighter snout" its called sometimes.
This is a betta who I would say has a nice topline.
And I think he's really cute.
Now lets look at male C's topline.
Male C has a really nice smooth curve and I think it looks great so he gets a checkmark
too.
Male A in my opinion isn't quite as gifted in the topline department.
If you look carefully, he doesn't have a nice curve.
Instead there is a little bump in it.
It's kind of hard to see so let me exaggerate it.
You can see that the nice curve is defiinetly interrupted by that little tiny amount of
a hunch bump. *sigh* hunch bump, I should really memorize the official terms for these
things.
But because of that, Male A does not get a checkmark.
Now I think it would be fun to take a look at some fish with toplines that I don't really
find all that pleasing.
Sometimes its good to give examples where you show fish that maybe aren't such good
examples.
Let's start with this long fin female here.
I wouldn't consider this fish to have a very strong topline.
It's very long and shallow.
This is quite a long-bodied fish.
Which is fine depending on what you need for your line to improve it.
But this is an example of a very shallow curve.
Here is an example of a female with practically no curve.
This female is really flat-backed.
Which I also don't find very pleasing.
This image looks kind of weird because I blurred out a watermark.
I felt weird critiquing someones fish when it has their name on it.
I didn't want to do that, I'd much rather just blur out their name and critique the
fish.
I wanted this as an example of a fish that has a pretty severe hunchback.
I call them hunchbacks.
Again, I forget the proper term.
The next thing that I'll take a look at are the fins.
I'll start with the ventral fins, which are the long pointy ones at the front of the fish
right here.
I can already tell that, in my eyes, male C is the winner here.
His ventral fins are long and pointed and sharp-looking and dramatic and I like that.
Some people might say they're a little proportionately too long but I really prefer that look to
the stubby ventral fins of the other two fish.
So a point for male C. Here is an example of what I mean by long,
pointed ventral fins seeming more dramatic.
Look at these two fish.
The white fish, I just feel like its so much more striking because of those long pointed
ventral fins, than the red fish who is a pretty fish,absolutely it's a beautiful little fish
but it doesn't have that same sense of...
I don't know what to call it.
Elegance, maybe?
Sharpness?
Even if the ventral fins are a little proportionately too long, I still prefer them.
Here is another trait that I like to select against.
If you lookat the ventral fins on these fish, you'll notice that they don't just come to a single
point.
They come to multiple points.The point is split.
I definitely prefer a single point. It looks a lot cleaner in my opinion.
I don't consider it that big of a deal but I do select against it if I can.
Ok,moving on.The next fin I'll look at is the caudal fin.
The caudal fin which is the back fin of the fish, this is pretty much the fin that defines
the betta fish.
So these fish are halfmoon plakats, which means that they're short-finned bettas but
the short-finned fish have been selectively bred to have a fuller, wider spread of their
caudal fin.
Here is an example of a traditional plakat.
As you can see it doesn't have as much ray branching as the halfmoon plakats, which means
the spread of its tail is not nearly as wide.
For a halfmoon plakat I'm looking for a caudal fin which is "D" shaped.
It's really full and sharp and pointy at the edges, and looks like a capital "D".
Male A and C definitely have the advantage when it comes to their caudal fins, but I
actually like male C a little bit more.
It's because male C's edges of the caudal fin are less rounded than male A's.
Which lends itself more to a capital D shape.
I'll show a few examples of male fish with a really strong, sharp capital "D" shaped
caudal fin.
Some of these fish are show fish that I pulled off from some websites like the Bettas4All
website.
So another point goes to male C. The next fin I'll look at is the anal fin.
Down at the bottom of the fish, this big long trapezoid-shaped fin down here.
So for this one I look for a few things.
I don't want it to be too long and trailing, but I also don't want it to be too short.
I want the fin to make as straight of a line as possible in this direction, but I also
want it to come to a point, not rounded.
So looking at all these fish, male B and C would be the winners here and male A - he
has a really rounded end of his anal fin and I don't like that.
Here are a few images of fish that I think are really nice examples for a good anal fin.
Male C gets another checkmark.
It's pretty obvious that male C is my winner.
I think I've gone over how I chose in a whole lot of detail, and why I chose him, and I
hope it made sense to everyone!
Now it's time to move over to the females.
I'll be taking a lot of concepts that I used for the males over to the females as well.
Since I have more fish to choose from, I'll be able to disqualify some a little more quickly.
Just like with the males, I look first at the body shape and the topline.
There is one extra thing I need to explain for what I prefer in the female body shape.
I prefer them to look kind of like teardrops versus ovals.
It's kind of hard to explain, heres a little picture of what I mean.
I say that because I think a more streamlined body looks very elegant and very striking,
versus a more stout, oval-shaped body that females can definitely have.
Sometimes females can get really, really stout and eggy.
I'll disqualify female C for that reason - she has the most stout, oval-shaped body.
In the photo her caudal fin looks a little weird but it's just her pose.
She is pushing her tail over to the side flaring at another fish, so I'm not really paying
attention to that.
Sometimes a fish's pose can definitely have an impact on how they look in a photo.
I'm also going to disqualify female B - her topline seem the most shallow of the remaining
fish, and I'm also noticing her proportions and her body length.
She's just slightly longer-bodied than I would like.
I've whittled my selection down to three remaining females. Next I'll look at the caudal fin.
Female A and E clearly have the fuller caudal fin with a nicer "D" shape.
It might seem like female E doesn't, but I just took that photo when she wasn't in a
perfect flare.
Female D's caudal fin is smaller,so she's disqualified.
She has the darkest coloration which is kind of nice but earlier I did say that I'm specifically
not looking at color.
Now to choose between female A and E, my last two fish.
I don't know, these fish look exactly alike to me, they're like twins.
I could have these two fish side-by-side in a tank and I wouldn't know the difference.
They looks the exact same to me.
Now E doesn't have as full of a flare in the photo, but it's just the pose.
I feel like it's a toss-up between these two fish because they're pretty much the exact
same, at least in my eyes.
So I chose female A. Female E is really nice too so I kept her and I've decided to pair
her to another fish of mine.
Thanks to everyone who participated in the last video. It was fun to hear what people's
thoughts were and answers were kind of all over the place though male B and C were usually
the favorites.
And as for females those answers were kind of all over the place too.
I was going to make a tally but there ended up being so many answers that I just couldn't
do it, I didn't have the time!
Thanks so much for participating in the last video.
So these are my winner fish, these two right here.
Female E was also one of my favorite females so I'm going to go ahead and pair her to a different
male that I have who is this nice marble.
She is going to improve that male, if that makes sense.
I already spawned them a few weeks ago but my spawn is very small so I'll probably try
again soon.
I'm looking forward to some offspring with some really great form, and hopefully a nice
heavier dragon layer, too, because that's really pretty.
I hope you guys enjoyed having a look into my decision-making process.If you would have
done things differently you can always comment in the comments down below and let me know.
Thanks so much for watching, guys.
Be sure to like and subscribe, I'm going to have some more betta stuff coming up in the
future.
Thanks so much to my patrons, I love you guys.
Have a great day and I'll see you later.

Sadhguru - Go beyond your reactive emotions and see what's the solution! - Duration: 16:02.
Before I begin, may I request you to ask two questions?
Sadhguru: Yes, sir.
Questioner: (Laughs) Before that,
I love you so much.
Sadhguru: Ahh (Laughter/Applause).
Oh, you.
Oh he just broke my heart (Laughter).
Questioner: Sadhguru, my first question is,
I'm not able to pull out myself from the grief.
Like you know,
whenever I see a child begging on the street,
girl or a boy,
I just... my conscience just keeps biting me,
like you know, "You are not doing this for them,
you are not doing that for them."
So, then I talk to myself saying that if I could earn unlimited,
I could do so many things for them.
So I want to...
I don't know how to get out of this..this feeling.
Whenever I see, I just, you know,
my legs start walking towards them.
And I...
I just spoil the mood for myself.
So how to... how to... how to be practical,
like, it's too much of emotion
which is disturbing me?
Sadhguru: See,
there is an unfortunate reality in the world.
Particularly in our country,
where many people have not eaten properly
– a lot of children still go to bed
without food in their stomach.
This is a reality.
But today,
there is some encouraging news.
Because United Nations has made a study and shows,
in the last decade
– that is from 2006 to 2016,
they made a study,
and they said,
about two-hundred-and-seventy million people in the country have come out of
the poverty line in the last ten hours... ten years,
rather, in the last decade.
It's a fantastic news, isn't it?
You're not saying anything, hmm?
In this country where
over 1.4 million children were dying of malnutrition
before they become five years of age, has come down by nearly 430,000.
Still 970,000 are dying,
but we must celebrate the success, very important.
Because everything needs a momentum.
Success needs a momentum.
If you grieve over things which are bad,
you will give momentum to those things which are bad.
You must give momentum to those things which are solution.
Don't give momentum to the problems,
give momentum to the solutions that are happening.
And the choice that you and me have is just this
– do we want to be a part of the problem,
or do you want to be a part of the solution?
This is all the choice we have.
Now, let us say ten people are miserable here...
more than ten faces are looking miserable
(Laughter).
Let us say ten people are miserable here and
because I see these ten faces
I will also become miserable.
Have I solved something or
have I added to the problem?
Added to the problem,
now there are eleven miserable people.
So it's very, very important that
if we want solutions we must go beyond our natural,
you know,
reactive emotions that we have towards various things
and look beyond that and see
what is the solution
- for that solution we must strive continuously.
Will these solutions happen immediately?
No.
Maybe it'll not happen in our lifetime.
But, are we a part of the solution?
Always are we a part of the solution?
Will all of you young girls
take this stand in your life,
you will always be a part of the solution?
Hello?
Participants: Yes.
Sadhguru: Always.
No matter in what situation you are.
Whatever the situation of your life
- it could be personal, it could be social,
it could be national
- you are always a part of the solution.
You will not take sides with problems.
Hello?
Participants: Yes.
Sadhguru: This one thing you take in your life,
you will see,
you will know the joy of unfolding all your capacity.
When you are part of the problem,
your possibilities will not come out.
When you are part of the solution,
you will do things that you never imagined
you could do in your life
- simply because you will unfold into that possibility.
So just become part of the solution.
This does not mean you are the solution.
No.
Because there are people busy always creating new problems.
If you solve one problem,
they create a new problem.
This happened.
Can I tell you a joke?
You all right?
You are not too serious for that?
Questioner: No.
Sadhguru: A woman in Tennessee...
you know, our center in United States is in Tennessee,
so a woman in Tennessee was marrying for the fifth time.
So she was a...
just a day away from marriage,
she was having dinner with her fiance.
And she served him mushroom soup.
And he took in a spoon
and nice candlelight and romantic and everything,
then he asked
"How did your first husband die?"
She said, "Well, he ate poison mushrooms and died"
(Laughter) (Gestures putting down his spoon)
"How did your second husband die?"
"Oh, he also ate poison mushrooms and died."
Now he kept the spoon there.
"But how did the third one die?"
" Oh…In fact he also ate poison mushrooms and died."
Now he got terrified.
He asked, "How did your fourth husband die."
"Well, he died of a broken neck because
he refused to eat poison mushrooms (Laughter)."
So what do you want to have (Laughs)?
Let's be part of the solution.
We are not the solution on this planet.
We are part of the solution,
we are adding to the solution.
We are giving energy and strength to the solution.
That's all.
Will we solve everything?
No.
But we must have the fulfillment in our life
that we have been a part of the solution
not part of the problem (Applause).
How did you fall in love with me?
Social media love, is it (Participants Laugh)?
Moderator: We see that people who want to have children
but are unable to conceive one themselves,
invest a lot of time, energy, and money into fertility treatments
when there are so many kids around the world who are waiting to be adopted.
I understand that adoption is not the cure for infertility,
it is though the cure for childlessness,
so if the purpose is to rear a child,
have a child, love a child, provide a home,
why not just adopt a child
who's already waiting for a home and to be loved?
Sadhguru: See, already,
many doctors and organizations are trolling me and
putting me on fire
because
I said, "First thing in India is
you must close down these…
all these damn fertility clinics.
When the country is exploding with population, God damn it you have fertility clinics?
You need an infertility bomb!"
(Laughter/Applause)
So, because I said this I'm in lot of trouble,
now you are drawing me into more trouble (Laughter).
Yes, this problem again goes back to the first question,
this is because you are so horribly identified with your own biology
- it has to come out of your body
otherwise it's not yours.
It is such a gross way of existence.
"Unless it comes out of my body,
it doesn't belong to me."
Well, you are married to a man or a woman
they didn't come out of your body,
"No, but our bodies are meeting, that's why."
See, the identity has become so grossly biological,
unless in some way it's biological interaction
it is not really a relationship.
In fact today,
everybody… all of you have picked up these words from America,
it just used to surprise me but now that is the usage.
If somebody says "I have a relationship,"
you are supposed to understand
that they have a sexual relationship.
Well, I have a relationship with you sitting here,
this need not be body-based.
Yes or no?
We are looking at each other,
do we have a relationship or no?
But why only
body-based relationships are relationships?
Isn't this a relationship?
Hello?
Participants: Yes.
Sadhguru: Your relationship with biology, leave it
- your parents, your brothers,
your sisters, leave that
– your friend, is this not a relationship?
Hmm?
Your milkman who comes and pours milk and
makes your life going today,
is this not a relationship?
Isn't your taxi driver a relationship, I'm asking?
No, no, you are not supposed to say that,
if you say "relationship"
people will assume you are sleeping with them (Few Laugh).
Yes, unfortunate, isn't it?
Relationships are of many kinds,
human beings can form varieties of relationships,
but right now unfortunately,
we think only if bodies come together or
only if something comes out of this body,
it's a relationship worthwhile
– other things are not relationships.
No, we have to change this language
because this is causing a lot of,
you know, pain to people, because body is the front end.
See, body is the front end for every other creature on this planet,
the only reason
this creature is dominating this planet is not
because we have the best body
– you are not comparable to an elephant, or a tiger,
or anything for that matter,
you are not even as good as a buffalo (Laughter).
Yes, in terms of strength and physical prowess
you are nowhere comparable.
This is dominant because of its intelligence,
this is dominant because of its consciousness,
but right now we are creating a world where your biology is the front end of your life
– this has to change.
Because the biology is the front end of your life,
you think your child means it has to come through you.
Not that natural child…
childbearing process is a bad thing,
it is just that if you were a tiger… if you were a tigress,
I would say please go to the fertility clinic soon,
because, you know, tch becoming extinct, hmm?
Their numbers are dwindling and they may disappear,
but human beings (Laughter) – just too many!
We are nice but we are too many, aren't we?
Hello?
Participants: Yes.
Sadhguru: In the beginning of twentieth century,
we were just 1.6 billion people,
today we are 7.6 billion people.
In hundred years over four times,
but in India of course we do better than others (Laughter).
1947 we were thirty-three crores, today we are hundred-and-twenty-seven crores -
-seventy years.
Well, this is not just because of excessive reproduction,
because our life expectancy has improved.
In '47 (1947), our life expectancy was only twenty-eight years of age.
Today it's reached somewhere around sixty-six,
which is a phenomenal achievement for the nation
– it's great.
But what I am asking is,
if you postpone death,
should you also not postpone birth?
Hello?
Participants: Yes.
Sadhguru: This is not a philosophy,
this is not a ideology, this is simple arithmetic.
Yes?
This is simple arithmetic
– if this many people were exiting…
in a college right now,
this year how many people exit,
that many people they will admit, isn't it?
Doesn't that work for the globe also?
For the planet also?
This many people exited,
so this many people should come in.
If you say this "You think…
Are you doing animal husbandry with us (Laughter)?
Are you doing Hitler's business?"
This is what…
"Oh, this is Nazi talk."
Well, you multiply unconsciously,
nature will do it in a very cruel way one day, yes?
If we don't consciously take steps as human beings,
nature will do it one day in a very cruel manner.
And that cruelty won't come like bang like that,
it happens slowly.
Crushing happens slowly.
Already it's happening
- farmers are committing suicide,
students are committing suicide,
all kinds of people are doing all kinds of things.
Why?
Somewhere life is becoming hard, isn't it?
Though as a generation
we have highest levels of comfort and convenience,
life is becoming hard simply because of the concentration of population.
We are doing all kinds of ecological nonsense,
but right now United Nations is making a prediction
by 2050 we will be 9.6 billion people.
Madam, you have to raise your floor (Laughter),
fifty floors.
No, no, this won't be enough
– fifty floors you must raise,
because they will be full like ants everywhere.
9.6 billion people,
nobody can live well on this planet.
Instead of making a prediction like this
"We will be 9.6," why can't we plan,
"by 2050 we will be 3.5 billion people"?
"Oh, what should we do, what should we do?"
If you don't do anything, population will go down
(Laughter/Applause).

Memory Book Tag [CC] - Duration: 15:00.
Hello everybody, my name is Cara, and today I'm here to do the Memory Book Tag.
This tag was originally created by Katie from aseaoftomes and she was also the one
who tagged me so I will link her down below. #1: Early years: What's the
first book you can remember reading by yourself? I actually had a really hard
time with this so I'm gonna go with one of the first books I remember like
seeking out in class and reading by myself, I'm sure I read books by myself
before this but for some reason the one that kept popping into my head was the
Junie B. Jones series *laughs*, I don't remember the author at all [Barbara Park], I just remember that
this was one of those series where I would go to our little like book area in
first grade and seek out like if there were new books there and yeah, Junie B.
Jones! Specifically I remember the fruitcake one for
some reason, that like really stuck in my mind, but I know I was reading books by
myself before that, like in kindergarten and before, but that's my answer.
#2: School: Discuss a book you had to read for school that you have strong
memories about. So I'm gonna do something a little different, I'm gonna go with a
poem actually and please forgive my Latin, I do not speak Latin, but it was
Dulce et Decorum Est, and I think that was by Wilfred Owen, and we read
that actually in 12th grade and one of the poems [my teacher] chose was Dulce et Decorum
Est, and the reason I have so many strong memories about this is because
for the longest time like basically my whole life up to that point, I had
thought I really didn't like poetry and I have no reason for that,
I don't--I don't remember a particular experience that made me decide I didn't
like poetry I just always had it in my head that like "I'm a book person,*laughs* like
poetry is not for me, it's very pretentious and it doesn't mean anything"
and like I just didn't like it, and then I read that poem and it stuck with me
for so long to the point where like actually this year I was working on a
project that involved searching-- searching out World War I poetry and I
remembered that one specifically and I looked it up. Reading that poem was just
such a visceral and powerful experience and the fact that it--that that poem is
what convinced me that I could enjoy poetry, like it changed my mind about an
entire range of written work that I had thought I--like I had made up my mind I
didn't enjoy, and like that poem is just so incredible and it's--it's bleak but
it's beautiful in the way that it's written and I just...I cannot say enough
wonderful things about it, I'm definitely going to link it
down below and I encourage you to read it because it really did change the way
I viewed certain kinds of literature. #3: Family: Talk about a book
you remember reading with your parents. I was very lucky, my parents read a lot
with me and my brother and sister but I'm gonna go with one that I think--I'm
pretty sure our mom was the only one who ever read this one to us even though my dad
did read to us and that was The English Roses and it's by Madonna, and I chose
this one because I just have...like this is one of the coziest, coziest read aloud
memories I have and the illustrations [by Jeffrey Fulvimari] were so beautiful and the story was so
beautiful; it's about female friendship so I think
that was definitely an important establishing moment for me as a young
reader!, but it was about not judging people based on appearances and how you
never know what's going on in someone's life and I loved the art and I just--I
just remember sitting down with my sister, and my mom reading this book to
us and it was just such a like warm memory. #4: Midnight: Talk about a
book you remember staying up late to read or finish. Um I probably have more
answers for this than I should have *laughs* but I'm just gonna go with one and that is
Harry Potter by J.K. Rowling, but specifically I'm talking about the
first one, and I think--I think it was even--I think it might have even been me
rereading this book so I didn't really have an excuse for why I had to stay up
late and read it. I have such a specific memory about when this happened because
I would be reading, I think I had...I don't remember if I had a flashlight or if I
had already had my light installed by my bed or whatever but I was--I'd be reading
it and then I could hear my mom like start to come down the hall and I would
like flip off the light and I would like pull the covers over and I'd hide the book under
the covers, like *laughs* you know in like TV shows where they always show kids reading
under the covers, like I actually kind of did that *laughs*
except not all the way under the covers and I specifically remember I was at the
part of the first book where the troll incident happens, like that was the part
I specifically remember almost getting caught because my mom came in and she
actually--she might have caught me one time when I did that, probably more than
one time but at the time I was like "Mom you're being so unreasonable I just want
to stay up and read!" and of course she was like "you have school the next
morning, like I want to take care of you, you shouldn't be doing this" but you know
I clearly knew better. #5: Holiday: Talk about a bookish memory
from the holidays and I chose Christmas and the book I chose was The Nutcracker
by E.T.A. Hoffmann, and this is the one that is illustrated
by Maurice Sendak. I think I've mentioned this briefly before um the reason I have
so many good memories associated with this book is for one thing Christmas is
my favorite time of year, it's my favorite holiday. Like the funny thing
about this memory is I'm not actually sure we ever finished this book at
Christmastime, but I remember multiple years in a row like we would--we would
figure out these fun things we wanted to do over the winter break and like for
Christmas specifically, and um we almost always had this book as like on that
list and like this idea that it was gonna be this really fun like family
read aloud and every year *laughs* we wouldn't finish it! like we would get distracted
by other Christmas books or we would just be--we would just be like doing
other things with our family so I loved that this was like this eternally
hopeful like "we're gonna get to it this year!" but I did eventually read this
by myself and I did end up really enjoying it and
I just want to show you some of the illustrations, and if you read the
original Nutcracker story it's very different I think from a lot of
adaptations, it's really strange and surprisingly dark. An unusual kind of
memory to think of fondly, but yeah, I loved almost reading this book! *laughs*...
we even got multiple chapters into it and it just never happened like all the
way through. #6: Passion: Talk about a book that helped shape you, ie, a
career path, an area you enjoy, etc. And do you guys remember the Magic Tree House
nonfiction companion books? because I think it was the third one, I don't
remember what it was called if it was like Ancient Egypt or like Mummies and
Pyramids or what, I'll insert a picture, but I loved that book,
I must have reread this thing...I don't even know how many times. We had a--we had
the first few non-fiction books but this was the one I kept coming back to and
even if it didn't create my love for ancient Egyptian history and culture and
and myth and all of that I think it definitely solidified it and I just--I
really enjoyed reading that book multiple times. #7: Travel:
Discuss a book you read on vacation or a trip that brings up fond memories. I'm
gonna go with Cheaper by the Dozen by Ernestine Gilbreth Carey and Frank B.
Gilbreth, Jr., I think. So this is like actually a nonfiction kind of a
biography of their dad and he's like--he was an efficiency expert [and so was their mom!] and their whole
family is just so interesting and for some--like this is a very cozy
feeling book, I remember years ago I brought it with me to reread because
this is a book I reread over and over because I just enjoyed it that much, I
brought it with me when my mom and I went to visit family of hers like in the
Midwest and normally our whole family would go but my brother and sister had
like a commitment that they had to stay for so my dad stayed with them so it was
just me and my mom and the reason I had such a good memory associated with this
is because this is one of the first times I remember my mom and I reading
the same book. She ended up picking this up because I had kind of casually mentioned
what it was about and that I really enjoyed it and she just like, she read I
think the whole thing in one or two days and my mom is like so busy and she's
always--she's always running around like making other people's lives easier so
for her to like devote that much time to a book, even--like to doing something for
herself like that, that was a really big deal and it was just so much fun to get
to discuss it with her and I think that was--like I said I think that was one of
the first books that we had read that was the same 'cause our reading taste didn't
really overlap too much before that so I just--I just have good memories
associated with that, of like spending time with my mom and getting to talk
about books with her. #8: Hideaway: Discuss one of your favorite places
to read and why it's one of your favorites. So I'm gonna go with um my
bunk bed from when I was younger, I actually had a bunk bed for a really
long time and I slept on the top bunk because I was the big sister and I
wanted to *laughs* and specifically I'm gonna talk about when I got a nightlight, like
a reading light actually, installed that was like on the wall and that I could
reach over and turn on so I could read up there and I just--I loved that because
my house was like pretty loud *laughs* so whenever--whenever I wanted to read it's
like I had to find somewhere where there wasn't a TV on or where people
weren't talking or like things like that, and even though I liked some background
noise I really liked having kind of my own space where I could just like--like
it was my bed, like nobody else could come up here, it was my bed, so I really
really enjoyed that, having my own kind of cozy little like reading nest, it was
really nice. #9: Life changes: Name a book that helped you with a big
life change, i.e., going to college, dealing with a breakup, etc. I'm gonna go with
kind of a recent one and that is the poetry of Mary Oliver. More than like a
specific life event, her poetry found me at a time I really really needed it, I
was going through some really bad things over--over the summer, this last summer of
2018, I was just going through a really hard time. Like specific poems of hers
kept finding me at moments when I needed them, like I think this happened one or
two, possibly even three times, and it wasn't until very recently that I
realized they were all by the same poet which inspired me to
seek out more of her work. If you're interested a couple of the poems I mean specifically
were I think Wild Geese, which is a very famous one of hers, and another famous
one of hers which is When Death Comes, which is surprisingly uplifting and
beautiful despite the title, and I just really appreciated her style of writing
and actually she just died a couple of days ago and even though I had
discovered her so recently I felt--I felt such an immense sense of loss because I
had only discovered how important she was to me recently and I remembered I
was at work when I found out and I just-- I just sat there for 10 minutes like
crying at my desk off and on, because of how much her work meant to me and um...
sorry! and like how much it had gotten me through things and I felt like I had
missed out because it I had discovered it so late but anyway I'm really *laughs* I'm
gonna stop before I get too emotional about it but I just think she was an
incredibly talented poet and it really--it really angers me that she is written
off [by some critics] as being too sweet or too positive and I think there's a lot of misogyny
tied up in that as well but I think for her to have such a talent for describing
the beauty of life with the suffering too, I think that is a really powerful gift
and something that not a lot of people have and I just, like the way that she--
the way that she meets you where you are, you know, if you read her poetry when
you're--when you're feeling very bleak and hopeless and she kind of lifts you
out of that not by making you feel like you're silly for being upset about
things but by kind of like acknowledging that bad things happen but there are
also good things, and I don't know if I'm describing any of this competently at
all but um, Mary Oliver is wonderful. And finally #10 is Stone: Discuss three
books or series that imprinted on your soul and impacted you in many ways.
I'm gonna go in chronological order and one of the first was The Secret Garden
by Frances Hodgson Burnett. This is the book that got me into reading, it was one
of the first things I remembered rereading over and over and over and I
love that it kind of--I think it kind of protected me from being intimidated by
classics um because like I didn't--I didn't know
what a classic novel was when I started reading this. I love the message of hope
but I also love that Mary Lennox like, she doesn't just turn into this perfect
sweet little girl, like she keeps her--her spunk and her fire
and I love that. I love the message about-- about how people can make the decision
to become better people and how people's circumstances can affect the way they
grow up but that doesn't absolve you of responsibility for the choices you make
and I just--I love this book so much. Next is a series and that is the Artemis Fowl
series by Eoin Colfer. Um this is my tabbed copy as you can see, I'm currently
rereading it for the Artemis Fowl readalong that I am co-hosting and this was
such an influential series for me and I think I'm only realizing as I get older
how much of an impact it had on me, like not just I really enjoyed this series
and it was um, it was one of the first series I remember like actively
anticipating the next books for along with Harry Potter, but I just--I just love
this series so much and I think that this was one of the ones kind of along
with The Secret Garden that from a young age made me realize like character
development and by extension people's development, like people can become
better, people can change, and I think *laughs* this also kind of set me on my path
of loving anti-heroes or kind of like complex character arcs and I just can't
say enough wonderful things about this series, every time I reread it I am still
astounded by how much I love the characters and how--how much I enjoy
the world and the story, and just the really complex issues these books deal
with about things like--things like morality and how far you're willing to
go to protect people you care about, like the things that you might do that are
bad but if you're doing them for good reasons does that make it okay? and
things like that, and I just really love this series and it was definitely a
formative one. And I could have gone with Harry Potter too [for my 3rd one] but I think that's a
very formative series for a lot of people and I wanted to be a little more
specific so I'm actually gonna go with a book that I read relatively recently in
my reading life compared to those other two and that is The Book Thief by Markus
Zusak. And I have talked about this book before, as with those other ones. This
book was one of the things that made me realize that I'm never gonna stop being
surprised at how much I love stories, because I came across this book at a
time when um I think I was pretty confident about the fact that like "I
already know that books are wonderful, like I'm already a reader," not that I
couldn't find books I loved but I was kind of convinced that I probably
wouldn't find another book that really surprised me with how much it affected
me? I don't know if that distinction makes sense
but in my head that's kind of where I was, and then I read this book and I
understand it's a very polarizing book, I know that a lot of people have been
reading it lately and [been] disappointed because it doesn't live up to the hype,
and I understand that: the writing style, the concept, the characters, they're very
out there and I think for a lot of people they wouldn't work but for a lot
of people they do, and I was one of those people, and this book just...I...oh my God, I--
I don't even know how to talk articulately about this book because it
means so much to me and because the--the compassion and the honesty and the way
it talks about humanity, the kind of the highs and lows like the--the terrible
things that people can do but also the really beautiful and wonderful things
people can do, and the things it says about storytelling and how much
storytelling matters, and some of these characters that I just like love so
deeply and I just...everything, everything about this book really just speaks to my
soul on a very very personal, fundamental level, and that's why I'm including it on
this list. Okay everybody, so that was the Memory Book Tag, um...I got a little
unexpectedly emotional for some of that, uh...*laughs* but those are some books that I
have very strong memories for. Please let me know down below if you have read any
of these books what you thought of them or let me know in the comments if you
guys have a book or series that you are only realizing now as an adult like how
fundamentally it changed you or influenced you, kind of like I was
talking about with Artemis Fowl. I will tag a couple of people in the
description so please be sure to check that, but if you want to do this tag
definitely do it, I really really enjoyed it, thank you again Katie for tagging me.
Thank you guys so much for watching, I will see you soon with another video, and
I hope you love the next book you read. Bye!

How Does a Personal Loan Work? - Duration: 4:46.
- In this episode of Office Hours,
we're gonna cover personal loans.
There may be a time in your life when you get
into a tight spot and you need some extra cash
and I want to give you some things to consider
before you take out a personal loan
and maybe give you a couple of nuances
about how they work.
Personal loans can come
in various flavors, right?
So it can be with an institution,
a financial institution, like a credit card
company or a bank or a credit union.
There's also the form of a personal loan
from a family member or a friend.
I don't advise that, but that does happen.
It's a little less formal,
not as much paperwork and underwriting.
And then you can borrow from yourself.
Maybe you can borrow out of your 401K.
Usually, 401Ks have loan provision features
where it works pretty much the same,
you pay interest back to yourself,
the money comes out of your paycheck,
and you borrow from your 401K.
Now you may ask, what can you do
with a personal loan?
Pretty much, whatever you want.
(chuckling)
Once the money gets into your bank account,
you can use it for whatever you want.
Now I would say there are some
parameters around loans.
Let's say you get a loan for the equity
in your home, right?
Typically speaking, those home equity lines
of credit or home equity loans are
for home improvement.
So although you probably could use the money
for other things, the bank may have something
within the loan, documents, or you would
be better served to use the money
for home improvements, right?
I would say, generally speaking, if you want
to use the money for whatever you want,
you want to get one of those loans
that are personal in nature, like we talked about
from a financial institution,
or borrow from your credit card.
This is a biggie.
How do loans affect your credit score?
Well they typically affect your credit score
in a couple ways.
The first is credit utilization.
What is credit utilization?
So it's the amount of credit that you have,
the available amount,
versus how much you're using, right?
And typically, the amount that you want
to stay under is 30%.
So let's say you have a credit limit of $10,000
across all your credit cards,
and the amount you're using,
across all those credit cards, is $3,000.
Well you're under that 30%
or you're right at it, rather.
And you want to be cognizant of that number.
As it goes beyond 30%, it starts
to negatively impact your score.
Now we've done some things on FICO
on this channel before, so I'll link those up
in the cards so you can check out how FICO works
and I go into a lot more detail.
The other way that this can affect your
credit score, is gonna be through payments.
Payment history is a very huge part
of your credit score, and you want to make sure
that you're paying on time.
Once you get to 30, 60, and God forbid,
90 days late, these start to get a progressively
negative factor, or become progressively
negative factors on your credit score.
It has a very much big, snowball,
cumulative effect as it gets worse.
So those are the main two ways that
a personal loan is going to affect your credit.
Is it a good idea to have a personal loan?
You know, look, we all go through those times
where we may have mismanaged our cash flow
and we need to get out of a tight spot.
I would say it really depends.
You're going to have to consider several factors,
not withstanding the fact of who the loan
is coming from, what the loan is for,
and when you plan to pay it back,
what the cost of that loan is gonna be.
There's all types of factors that you want
to, you know, kind of consider.
Now personal loans, loans period,
accumulating debt, generally,
we want to make sure that our assets outweigh
our liabilities so that our net worth can grow.
But at the same time, there are gonna be
some pretty big purchases that you're going
to have to make, that you likely don't have
all the cash up front.
A home is a perfect example of something
that you may not have enough money
to pay all cash for it, so you're gonna have
to take out a loan.
Another thing is education.
You may not have all the money to go to school,
or go to the school that you want,
to get the degree that you want,
and you're gonna have to take out
a loan against that.
So there's examples of when you want to use
or borrow money.
Personal nature of a personal loan,
it's gonna be so subjective.
I can't really give you a definitive answer.
I think you just need to weigh those factors.
That concludes this episode of Office Hours.
Thank you so much for watching.
Would love for you to leave me a comment,
give me a thumbs up if you enjoyed it.
Would also want you to consider subscribing
to this channel for more information
around financial literacy, economic empowerment,
and personal development.
Talk to you later, bye bye for now!

#180 The Reveal: Fuel Problem or Transmission Problem? - Duration: 6:50.
Hey everybody how you doing well this morning a man I are going to take the
boat out to do the last of our tests to determine if the problem with the boat
is definitely transmission failure or if it is related somehow to the fuel intake
of the engine before we go out first I have to change the oil then I need to
check the coolant then I check the transmission fluid make sure the sea
cock is open so water can flow through to cool the engine and then we're ready
to fire her up!
it's a nice sunny day we're gonna take that and do the testing as I mentioned
before and uh check out and see what we need to do with this boat
hi everyone so back on the boat and going through some tests again to finish
up the determination of what's going on with this engine is it the fuel is it
the transmission what is it so we're going to do our last test on the water
here
everybody yes so we came out on the river and doing a couple last tests to
determine what's going on and now we're gonna head back into the slip
final assessment
hi Elia this is
engine testing and
everybody so we doin our tests and we've got one more test to do and then we're
going to I'm going to just make a decision you know I'm not a mechanic but
I'm learning it's a steep learning curve but we've been ruling out issues and you
know we want to get things fixed and move on so we want to keep going so
gonna have to make a decision this is our last test so stay tuned so the seat
the seacock is open and the fuel line is down so we're good to go all right let me get
the glow plug warming.. here we go those of you who are interested you can just
pause the video now and you can read the assessment for a person who has the same
exact transmission as I do the same boat and same motor you can read it now and
see what you think
oh yeah sweet sound of the easel in and that's working good
it's the idle speed about 600 it says in the engine manual
and they say that that means that it's the transmission so what do you think of
that
not good news or bad news yeah so this whole grandpa just did is a test and
I've been told by those that have more mechanical knowledge that if it doesn't
slip and do what it did in Reverse it's the transmission because of whatever
mechanical reason so I think our testing is done I don't really know what else to
do and we've got me want to get things moving right it's gonna again we're
getting a cold snap here and staff time we want to move south so we've been
moving south eternally but up alright so here we go let's go to the next thing
let's look at
everybody I'm just waiting for Amy to come she just called that she's about
five minutes away so I'm just waiting

80% Of Your Gains Will Be A Result Of THIS - Duration: 7:04.
What's going on, guys?
Sean Nalewanyj on www.SeanNal.com - www.RealScienceAhletics.com, and in this video today I want to talk about
the 80/20 rule.
It's also known as the Pareto principle.
You might have heard of it before, but basically what it states is that 20% of your actions
in a given area are ultimately going to be responsible for producing 80% of the overall
results, and then the other 80% of your actions are gonna produce the remaining 20% of results.
So, in other words if you're trying to reach a certain goal, the vast majority of your
results are ultimately gonna come from a small group of key things that you do on a consistent
basis.
Now, this is taught pretty often when it comes to business but the same idea also holds true
for building muscle and losing fat.
Now, one of the big issues I see nowadays is that because fitness in general has just
become so huge, you know, here on YouTube, social media, blogs, there's just so much
conflicting information out there that people have to shift through and process.
And so many of these content creators are just pumping out this constant fluff and BS
to try and be unique, and to stand out, and to try to build up their following that way.
There's all these different dieting strategies, special training techniques, breakthrough
supplements, ideas about certain foods that you must eat or you must avoid, exercises
you must do or you must avoid, it just goes on and on and on, and because of that it's
really easy to get distracted and to lose sight of what's really important in the big
picture.
This constant information overload can sometimes give you the impression that getting into
shape is this hugely complex process with a million different variables that you have
to figure out and juggle, when in reality coming back to the Pareto principle, 80% of
the overall muscle building results you achieve, 80% of the fat you lose and the strength you
gain is ultimately going to come as a result of applying 20% of all the possible things
that you could do that are being taught and preached about online.
And that's obviously just an estimate, it could be 85/15, it could be 90/10, but the
bottom line is to keep in mind that no matter what, no matter what anyone tries to tell
you or how convinced it might seem, the vast majority of your progress is going to come
down to the basic fundamentals.
There's just no way around it.
There's no special unknown secret waiting around the corner, that all of a sudden gonna
make a world of difference and double or triple your progress overnight, or turn the whole
process into some easy walk in the park.
It's the underlying fundamentals applied consistently over the long term that are going to make
the real difference.
Now, I'm talking about simple things; are you training with a high enough level of intensity
in the gym, are you training with proper form and centering your workouts around the basic
compound lifts, are you hitting each muscle with enough total volume and frequency throughout
the week, are you striving for progressive overload and getting stronger over time, are
you hitting your overall calorie needs and your approximate macronutrient needs for the
day.
I know none of this stuff sounds very exciting, it doesn't sound very glamorous, it's not
gonna sell programs or supplements as effectively as claiming that there's some special shortcut
you can use instead, but this is the basic stuff that most of your fitness journey will
boil down to if you want to be successful.
If you train hard with proper form and you get consistently stronger on the basic compound
lifts using enough total volume and frequency, and you support that with the proper amount
of total calories and macronutrients throughout the week, and let's also throw in that you
stay hydrated and you get a proper sleep each night, those are important, too, a few basic
supplements if they fit into your goals, if you just do those things on a consistent basis,
even if you never even think about anything else you'll still probably achieve, I'd say
80% or more of your total genetic potential when it comes to gaining muscle and leaning
down, and probably within about 2 to 3 years or so if you're mostly consistent along the
way.
Now, obviously there are additional details associated with those basic things.
I'm not trying to oversimplify things here.
You have to learn how to train with proper form on each exercise, you have to learn how
to calculate your volume and frequency and lay out a solid weekly training split, how
to apply progressive overload, how to determine your calories and your macros and track your
progress along the way.
I wrote an entire book on these things that lays it all out step-by-step and I wouldn't
have written all that if I didn't think that explaining it all in detail was necessary.
But once you do break it all down you'll see that it really isn't that complicated and
it really doesn't take a long time to learn either if you commit yourself to it.
So, I'm not saying that getting into great shape is easy and even once you do have the
right knowledge in place, it still takes time to get the hang of everything and build up
the proper habits, and learn about your body and how it responds, and things like that,
but what I am saying is that for the most part it really isn't that complicated.
It doesn't require anything fancy and if you keep the majority of your focus on the basic
fundamentals and just get really good at applying those few key things, not only are you gonna
get way better results in comparison to trying to do a hundred different things at once,
but it's also gonna simplify everything for you mentally, which will increase the chances
that you'll actually stick to your program for the long term.
And it'll also free up time and energy that you can then go ahead and divert on to other
things.
The smaller details do become increasingly important as you reach the more advanced stages
of lifting, and if it's your goal to take your physique to the highest possible level,
but for the average natural lifter, again, the bulk of your results are just gonna come
down to the simple fundamental tasks carried out consistently over the long term.
And that's where the majority of your focus should be in order to maximize your chances
for success.
So, I hope this was helpful, guys.
Like I mentioned before, having access to the proper information is a critical part
of getting those fundamentals down as efficiently as possible because there's just so much misleading
content out there nowadays.
So if you do want to cut through all the nonsense and grab a fully structured step-by-step plan
that lays out everything you need to know in terms of training, nutrition and supplementation
using an honest science-based approach, I'd recommend checking out my Body Transformation
Blueprint program by clicking up at the top of the screen or visiting www.BTBluePrint.com,
because that's definitely a resource that I wish I would've had when I first started
lifting.
