Why I Bought the Osmo Pocket 3.
Self-Objectification
I think the best way to judge yourself is to look at yourself from a third-person perspective. Having lived my life believing that skills are the most important thing, the truth is I haven't paid much attention to my appearance. But even I, someone who considers skills and character as the most important values, have been judging people by their looks and holding a lookism mindset. Like everything else, taking care of your appearance doesn't happen overnight. It takes consistency. You need to maintain a healthy diet, regular exercise, and even manage your stress. I want to know whether I'm headed in the direction I want when I look at myself.
Table Tennis
To get good at table tennis, you need to record your play, review it, and find what you're lacking. You can see this from the YouTube channels of LA Chopper and Won Se-yeon.
Monitoring My Own Coding, English, Japanese, and Korean Speaking Skills
To get good at coding, you need to review your own code. I think the reason celebrities speak well and present themselves well is that they monitor themselves that thoroughly. Through the process of writing, reading, and revising, writers also seem to develop excellent self-objectivity.
Sometimes in English, sometimes in Korean, sometimes in Japanese -- let's record ourselves speaking and watch it back. Let's see how we actually talk. And let's observe how we actually code. That will be the best form of study.
