The Growth Mindset

So I recently just learned of the Growth Mindset by Carol Dweck, I've never heard of The Growth Mindset or Carol Dweck. I watched two videos about the Growth Mindset on YouTube.

It's interesting to me because I'm dyslexic, so my experience with school is failing and when I was in primary school fail all time, I was the child who stay inside because I couldn't do me homework. Probably why I never cared about my grades, what teachers said about it and only focus on my dream: to get into college.

Yep, that was my dream, now it's 'make my story idea into an actual story'

I remember when My Primary School principal told me I would never get accepted into any Secondary School, joke on her, I'm in University now !

It also interesting to me because I work with kids in scouts, i remember we went on a hike with Cubs in Claire and some of the Cubs moan all the way up. However some didn't, they just did the hike and didn't moan.

It's funny because once we started going down, no one moan and getting down was much harder, like I nearly fell off. Maybe the Cubs realized they could ? Maybe the Cubs will take on more challenges in the future ?

Unity tutortial 07

Another week, another unity tutorial this time I'm not following along with Jimmy Vegas' tutorial series and instead following another series of tutorial to learn how to put an inventory in my game ! In particular, this video  Unity Inventory UI Tutorial  which is a 3d inventory ! Thank god, every fucking tutorial I looked for inventory were for 2d games, not 3d. I did find a blog as well but when I did try to follow along, it didn't go so well so I decide to ditch that and found a 5 minute video. Working on my inventory, yes I'm using my JV tutorial world and turned off fade in, Screen shot taken by me. Now it's confession time and I thought I would say this : I miss Jimmy Vegas. Yeah his tutorial weren't great but some of these tutorial go really fast and you just have no idea what is going on. That's why for my next tutorial I did Jimmy Vegas RPG tutorial #024 Boss Ai  ! Unfortunately Jimmy's Video is part of a series and I don't really w...

Unity Free Tutorials

Hello and welcome to my blog ! With My Non-swinging Axe.  This week I'm looking at unity tutorials for my game, that totally weren't sent by my mate Oisin, cheers Oisin !  To see if they can help my game. The first one is "PATROL AI WITH UNITY AND C#"   Jesus, someone needs to calm down with the CapLk.  A handy video that teaches a little bit of different coding but with little explanation of what the code does but personally I recommend muting the video and just because his voice is annoying, I'm half deaf and his voice was giving a headache ! So after doing the tutorial I came across a problem, the script doesn't seem to be working, there's supposed to be a speed box but as you can see there is none, even after I tried to listen to the video I couldn't get it to work. For some reason, the script not coming up right, screen shot taken by me. Moving onto the next tutorial, "How to make Doors in Unity"   yes I'm serious.  This tut...

Unity tutorial 06: Thanks Google and Unity!

FINALLY I'm done this unity tutorial ! Oh my god you have know idea how long this took me. First Chrome decided not to work, like at all, I don't know since it wasn't my wi-fi or laptop since Firefox work fine for me, so why ? No idea. Cheers Google ! Screenshot taken by me. Oh and the Unity video froze again , then it crashed. I feel you buddy, screenshot taken by me. So how did the tutorial go ? Pretty good actually, once unity stopped messing me around, I actually didn't have a bad time. I guess my only problem is this error which I can't figure for the life of me what it's on about: Null Reference ? What you on about Unity ? Screenshot taken by me. Seriously Unity telling me Null Reference is like telling me my Dad wants me, I've no clue what you're talking about. Anywho apart from this error, I feel like this was the most useful tutorial so far, the others were great for getting back into things while learning a few new tricks but...
