How Marshmallows Predict Your Success | Michio Kaku | Goalcast 

you probably dont care at all but does someone know a trick to log back into an Instagram account..? I somehow lost my password. I would love any assistance you can give me!

@Major Jason Instablaster :)

@Roy Uriah thanks so much for your reply. I found the site through google and Im in the hacking process atm. Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will get back to you later with my results.

love that.

from the late, great Jim Rohn - one of the men I most admire lifelong.

It's on children who love marshmallow. If they test it has to be base off what they love to consume too.

This is a stupid test because society doesn't reward hard working people like he did with the marshmallows.

@@lepetitchat123 yeah you've got a point

Not necessarily marshmallow per se, it may refer to Money. Delay accepting money, wait for bigger amount later on.

luckily tests are conducted on more than one person last i checked

😂

How about I ate two marshmallows?

I'm vegetarian so wasn't allowed marshmallows.

awesome you put in in the resume' Art.

If you written a resume to look for a job, then you eat the marshmallow

Hii main bhi

Well it's me😅

Abishek Ghimire I had had quantum physics in college. My college quantum physics professor would speak about this guy and how media has distorted it for profit and how the rest of us are left cleaning up the mess.

Abishek Ghimire quantum does not work the way he portrays.

Abishek Ghimire When I get more time I'll explain further. Ixm walking out the door now. The main problem is what is known as P-hacking. Quantum is very complex and doesn't work the way the pop science explains it.

people have said this about Neil de Grasse Tyson as well, do you have any evidence for your claim? and even if he is a media puppet that doesn't make him any less smart

I would of left and snuck in at night and steal everything but the marshmallow.

You'd be a very good politician! 👏

theliftexpert you're a class S hooman, you see future map well

Crazy how accurate that is though..😂🙄

Yeah but it's a test . One can steal marshmallow but we can't steal success .

perspective matters

Chandra V So does environment.

VERY true. I realized recently that I went from thinking My life is great...to thinking it sucks...and next to nothing changed :/

They don't see the future neccessarily, they anticipate what is to come through their survival instincts, which is "automatic". Although, some orcas were shown to actually train their young to hunt before the seals arrive, which is a rare instance of preplanning in the animal kingdom.

The behaviours got beaten into them through thousand years of evolution. It exists in their gene based on the sacrifices of millions of their ancestor. So, no they can't see the future. The season changes is recurrent and they adapt to it.

AngKear your behaviours were beaten into you by those that raised you, so you dont see tge future either.

Tyler Rafferty your argument makes no sense dude. try explaining a bit more.

chester cortez they get what they need now and for the future. They are not starving now for the future. That's the difference between a forrest full of nuts and an adult human controlled bag of marshmallows. Nobody stops the bear.

you left out the most important part of what she said after your whole bag timeframe reply. that's what decides her character

Ashraf Khan indian or pakistani?

Ashraf Khan Good😊.Me too

What’s the point of asking ?

SP I300 Indeed he is an intelligent physicist who’s being megalomaniacal but it’s people like u who are being fooled by the annunciation and paraphrasing Sorry it’s not derogatory I didn’t have better words

Greyson Adler which god? The one in the Bible the one in the Koran the one in Indian religion?

hamster2880 statistically speaking, he is probably referring to the one of the Bible.

People already know the answer to that question

Theres always someone with that gibberish.

Jimbo what gibberish

Absolutely true Thank you

Yup life over for u

@@jayr399 Thanks for the encouraging words. Jay. It’s not true what they say about you…

@@timpricedrums yeah ok. Cope

@@jayr399 you’re a true wordsmith Jay. Incredible.

Me

no, i need more, give me lifetime BLESSING!

My M8 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

Lech people are so easily snow balled.

thats why u need to see or imagine the future so u know what the exact time you grab the marshmallow, not on the point you really dying in hunger...

Absolutely. And "then", the marshmallow can get 1.) crusty 2.) eaten 3.) undesired. Again, I say Bah.

Timing of the rewards matter. Having a house at age 30 is definitely better than having a house twice the size when you are 60

cmmnts are filled with -999 IQ people who instead of understanding the actual thing and logic, talking nonsense and exaggerating the exceptions.

gr8H8er theres this thing called chitta in hindu or rather vedic teachings about the mind its pure unaffected and uninfluenced intelligence

gr8H8er i believe thats truly what makes us all so different

Here's an article that more clearly articulates what I was trying to say. but take it with a grain of salt. I welcome new perspectives www.theatlantic.com/family/archive/2018/06/marshmallow-test/561779/?

I came here to say this. I know when I was a kid, I didn't get marshmallows (or candy, or junk food) because we were just too poor. I was always hungry. Kids are mean. They'll hold out a handful of candy and say "want some?" only to pull it away yelling "psych!" and then run away laughing hysterically. If somebody had given me a marshmallow, I would have stuffed it in my mouth before the offer turned out to be a scam, or some other kid punched me in the head and took it from me. I still managed to claw my way up out of poverty, have a decent life, and save for rainy days and (hopefully, some day) retirement. But I don't do well at delayed gratification, because that "double or nothing" scenario is a gamble you only take with play money you don't need for survival, and the house almost always wins.

umdesch4 hey i'm happy for you that you climbed out of the poverty cycle! I think it's a great thing!!! Nevertheless, I think on the whole, marshmellow test doesn't really predict success that well. But the thing with such experiments is that we use it to predict general trends. The analogy fails when we talk about single individuals because there are always exceptions and trends don't account for exceptions. Rather it accounts for what is more likely to happen. This is all to say that while I agree with you, I think it's important to prevent yourself from falling into the fallacy of just using your experiences (or those around you) to gauge the validity of any trends. Academics typically call this ecological fallacy.

For sure. I'm just using my own experience as an example, but I've seen a lot of other studies that basically say that in general, someone's parents' socio-economic status bears the highest correlation to theirs. Correlation and causation are tricky to determine, but my intuitive sense is that the marshmallow test is a test of something other than a straight ability to grasp the concept of delayed gratification at an early age. That's far too reductionist. In my situation, given what I knew and understood of the world as a small child, taking the one marshmallow was the winning strategy with the highest likely outcome of success for my survival. Then, of course, there's the question of whether the test is any kind of valid predictor of future success in life, even if only as some kind of correlation. I doubt that too, and as the link you posted above indicates, it seems worth doubting.

I am not certain but I think there is some missing analogy here. Soft wood trees beat the hardwood to the light, and the hardwood dies. First to market or never to market maybe? The correct answer too late is the wrong answer?

@@KANJICODER Your not wrong thats why there are many softwoods and not many hardwood trees...But the oldest or biggest are almost always hardwoods. When I say hardwoods I dont necessarily mean stuff like ebony or teak. Im talking European broadleafs...And Yew trees as well I guess...But softwoods generally cant support their own weight past a certain size and so they rarely make it to the canopy to compete long term. The early bird does get the worm but you must have heard the one about the hare and the tortoise....?

Hahaha

No.. what you gain from short cuts don't tend to last

RR 钟离 nothing lasts in this entropic world

This has no correlation to anything. Midwit marshmallow test failures love to cope

Lol! The last part though

Last part caught me off guard, but it's not false either sooooo.... Unless you got the money to cover THAT up....

You know the test is bullshit, right?

This. Playing safe, paying with time for higher return, letting others manage your asset ( the marshmallow ). Sounds like symptoms of typical corporate slave. Successful kids would do something more creative. E.g. Take the marshmallow, trade it with a piece of TimTam, then trade it again with 2 marshmallow with another kid who likes TimTam.

I think the general idea behind it is true because most success requires work, patience, discipline and persistence.Yes maybe a simple marshmallow test won't be enough but doing many kinds of "marshmallow tests" throughout time and I think it'd be more accurate.It''s not everything but I think it's a big part of getting ahead in life.

Mark Emerson tell that to the democrat prepping you to work your ass off for someone elses passion until you're made to like it and pass on life without once stopping to notice wtf this actually is

Indeed. School is a waste of time. I wouldn’t wish it on anyone. Go antinatalist!

Doesn’t mean anything. U can substitute marshmallow for anything. Stop coping

@@jayr399 yet more sage advice from one of life’s true winners. Good stuff Jay 👍🏻

@@timpricedrums Your reply is cope. I bet you posted that from your 9-5 while hoping to get home so u can lounge around and watch Netflix I can sense it

you need to strengthen her character, currently it is too common for her gender.

Sorry it can’t be trained. That’s cope. You either got the sauce or you don’t.

@@jayr399 that’s the kind of mindset that sets you up for failure in life. When seeing a objective that seems out of reach in the current moment, you immediately go to the excuse and assume that you can’t do it. With the right mindset and training you can change it slowly but surely, this goes for most skills. The amount of success or skill you have when you are born is PARTLY influenced by your pre-set personality, but the majority of it can be obtained through training.
