Long answer: fuck no

And I started like this because if you're here only looking for a quick answer, you

have it, you don't need to watch the rest of the video

Greetings Earthlings!

Welcome to the MadqueenShow!

I am your host the MadQueen!

On today's menu, we have a new Cyberpunk 2077 news video for you, and today we're going

to talk about this "leak"

oh, boy

reported by GamePressure.com, link in the description, according to which, Cyberpunk

2077 will be a first person shooter

This new information comes from an inside source that also claims, and, honestly, I'm

trying not to laugh here, that the studio is working on a fragment of the game the action

of which will take place on the moon

Guys, I promise this is not an April Fool's news

And, yes, I suppose that you realized that I used the international symbol of quotes,

"leaks", yes

Usually, I'm not this sarcastic with leaks, I try to respect the work of my colleagues

but in this case, we're talking about a leak that contradicts every single piece of information,

every single piece of official information, that we have regarding Cyberpunk 2077 so,

I must confess that this new info has me a little shocked, not to mention that I honestly

don't believe it, and here are the reasons why

Still, we are talking about an Open World RPG

This is true RPG

Yes, this man that you just saw is Adam Kiciński, CEO of CD Projekt, the Polish developer that

is now working on Cyberpunk 2077

and, well, if I was to accuse Adam Kiciński of lying, I would wait until I have proof

First of all, in this conference, we were given some information regarding Cyberpunk

2077 and one of the first things that we were told about it, was that we were talking about

a true RPG, a solid story with a lot of ramifications and, you know, again an RPG, that is not a

First Person Shooter

We know from previous interviews that the heads of the Polish developer CD Projekt are

people that have a lot of experience playing pen and paper roleplaying games, so, it's

very difficult for me to believe that people that have such experience in these games cannot

know the difference between a first-person shooter and a roleplaying game

second, we know that Mike Pondsmith is supervising the project

Mike Pondsmith is the original creator of the world of Cyberpunk, and he said in an

interview that he was requested many times before to make a video game on his universe

Cyberpunk, but he refused, but CD Projekt was the perfect studio to do so because they

weren't just going to create a universe that was more or less cyberpunk just to put the

brand "Cyberpunk" on it, but, that we were talking about a studio that really understood

the meaning of the universe that Mike Pondsmith created

Again, this universe is not a universe of a first-person shooter

We fought to find somebody who was enough of a fan of the world and the game to not

wanna go changing around, or to stick a label of "Cyberpunk" on it and then do something

totally different, so when CDPR approached us what we realized really rapidly is that

these guys are fans, these guys know the material, they were quoting things back to me that I've

forgotten, they got it

As we mentioned several times in the past, we're talking about a game that's going to

have both options, first and third person

so, honestly, I don't really know where this information comes from, but it's not the first

time that we see a lot of leaks that allegedly come from inside sources but they've been

already debunked in the past

I honestly don't know what else can I say about that, because with a very little check

I believe that it was easy to see that this information is incredibly, incredibly unlikely to be true

But, one channel I do trust when it comes to leaks about Cyberpunk 2077 is The Triple

S League who have proven in the past a lot of accuracy

they have a rate of a 100% accuracy right now, everything they leaked has been confirmed

so, yes, you're going to find a link in the description to visit the Triple S League because

I am sure that they will have some insight regarding this subject

Well, folks, thanks for watching

I hope you found this information, I don't know, useful?

Is that useful?

Not even amusing

See you in next videos and stay being amazing!

'The Middle': Watch How a Pop Hit Is Made | NYT - Diary of a Song - Duration: 6:03.

"It's shocking how much time into one song was put

from so many different people."

"A year of work, 15 different vocalists,

everyone getting the song to sound as good

as everyone knew it could be."

"Hey."

"Hey."

"Hey. How's it going?"

"I know we meant all good intentions.

Yeah. I feel like that's my quota of singing for the day.

I'm so bad at singing in front of people."

So do you remember the first session

that you guys had where you worked on "The Middle"?

"The day before the session, we were kind of just going through ideas.

And there was this sound."

"We were kind of like, you know, this feels really special.

Let's save it for tomorrow with Sarah."

"I'm this guy.

I sit in the back and I'm like, 'Cool.' "

"Is she on Instagram? Is she on Twitter?

Or is she writing? But she's writing.

She actually is."

"I only really put the voice memo on

if I think I'm getting something good."

"She just wrote for 10 minutes and she's like:

'I'm going to go in the booth and let me sing it.

Let me know what you guys think.'

That was literally the first thing we heard."

"All three of us literally just screamed with excitement."

And when you heard that,

I mean, it sounds crass, but, like, do you see dollar signs?

"I mean, it's hard sometimes in the room,

you write songs so much,

but it definitely felt special."

"So we get sent a lot of demos.

But there's a few writers where we really love basically

everything they do.

And Sarah's one of them.

We were instantly, like,

'We're definitely going to try a version of this.' "

"We are, like, obsessed with these, like, cinematic sound samples

that we have."

"Yeah, that's like a medieval ax whipping noise."

"Everyone watches 'Game of Thrones,' or whatever.

But you never hear it in songs."

"We had something that we like, but it

wasn't, like, absolutely perfect."

"So they played it for me and were like, 'What do you think?'

I felt if done right

this could be huge smash.

So we start working on it together,

and everybody started loving it.

Let's just find a vocalist.

Which is something that ended up taking,

as you know, quite a long time."

"It's not very often that

that many high-level artists cut a song."

"I'm looking for somebody to sing it with the same intention

as Sarah sang it.

But I'm looking for somebody to do it better."

"There's been months where we, like, almost gave up

because nobody can sing it properly."

"He kept cutting vocals and comping and flying

to go see the artists.

And it's just, like, so grateful that he didn't give up."

"I didn't really know about all the drama

of finding a vocalist."

"I had never heard her music

until I heard her demo.

So I was like, 'Who is Maren Morris?' "

"She sounds really good."

"The rhythm is so interesting. 'Looking at you I can't lie.'

It's like walking up stairs."

"She was in Nashville.

So I flew in and had to fly out that same night."

"I recommended, like, a hot chicken place

that he could check out."

"She sounds the most like Sarah of anybody

because she has this rasp that Sarah has."

"We had the final product, which I sent to everybody,

and I've never had a song where everybody

felt, like, it was perfect."

"Hey, guys.

It's that time again.

I wanted to show you a preview to my brand-new song.

Check it out."

"All right.

All right. Thank you, guys."

"I saw, like, the name come up in my car, like, before it started playing.

And then was like: 'Oh my God! Oh my God!' "

" 'The Middle' has been like the fastest-rising song for me

I think I've ever had."

"See everyone just start to scream and shout along with it.

It looks like an '80s concert."

"This seems crazy.

Like, bits of it were made in my small apartment."

"After it came out,

I went to New York for the Grammys,

and at the afterparty I saw her, like, walk past.

And I was, like, never — it's never in me to go up to anyone ever,

but I'm, like, 'I feel like I'm an idiot if I don't.' "

"And this little girl stopped me.

I hate calling her, like, a little girl.

She's 23 years old."

"I was like, 'I'm so sorry to annoy you.' "

"In her sweet Australian accent

she's, like, 'I'm Sarah, I wrote 'The Middle. ' "

"And she was, like: 'Wait.

You're, you're the girl in the demo!'

And I was, like, 'Yeah, that's me!' "

Some Is Good. More Is Better. - Duration: 7:41.

Hi, it's Beth, and I'm coming to you today from Sacramento, California, where spring

has sprung. Daffodils are in full bloom, the azaleas are coming out, the wisteria

has exploded, and it is just absolutely gorgeous. The pistachio trees are just

going wild, and I love it. So, if you're in a part of the country where that's not

quite happening for you yet? Just embrace with me the fact that it's

coming -- as is change. So, what I want to talk to you about today is the idea of

what is enough. What is enough. A few years ago -- several years ago, now -- I had

the pleasure of doing some work and spending some time with Dr. John Ratey

and Dr. Ratey is out of Harvard, and he is one of the leaders on understanding and

researching how physical activity impacts our ability to learn. It has a

strong impact on how our brain processes new information and creates new learning.

He did a massive study on the impact of a little physical activity --

treadmills, those types of things -- for kids right before academic

classes and what happened with their grades. I'm telling you this story

because when he was presenting to a massive group of physical educators and

fitness people, a question kept coming up, which was: "What's the perfect dosage?"

And I loved what he said. His answer was: "Some is good, and more is better."

Some is good, and more is better. As I'm working with folks

all around the country on how to improve communication and how to be able to show up

in conflict without being triggered, how to be able to go to work

and engage with people with less drama and less chaos and find more joy in their

work and in what they're doing, and more peace within themselves, it's so

important that I remember to let people know that as you're practicing and

trying on new skills and working to show up differently, some is good and more is better.

I realize that -- myself included -- I always

have this idea of what's perfect. I have to show up perfectly all the time.

If this is gonna work, I have to do it perfectly. But the truth of the matter is

as we're learning new behaviors and we're trying on and trying out new ways

of being in the world, we need to practice, we need to explore, we need to

be uncomfortable -- and that's a big shift. So, a lot of people I work with, they tell

me, "Yes, every time I have to give feedback or every time I have to receive

feedback, every time I have to go into my employee review or performance review, I

tell myself, 'This time, I'm not going to get upset. This time, I'm not going to

blow up. This time I'm not gonna shut down. I'm not going to become defensive.'"

and they make that commitment. Or maybe the commitment is -- I just had this with a

client the other day -- "This time, from now on,

I am going to give clear communication. I'm going to give clear directions. I'm

going to make sure everybody on the team is on the same page when

they leave the meeting." Okay, well, the commitment is great!

The tough part -- as a matter of fact, the commitment is easy. I commit every

year to lose weight and exercise more. I commit all the time. That's great, but the

work is in the practice of the new behaviors and

getting comfortable with what initially feels very uncomfortable. So, if you're

someone who makes a commitment every day that you're gonna go into the office and

not be Debbie Downer when you get there ... I'm thinking of one

person who has this goal. They show up and they can't help it, they get in the

door and, as soon as they're in the door, they complain about the commute, they

complain about the baby not sleeping, they complain about their spouse, and so

the behavioral change for them, the steps to making change, are to

practice showing up and saying, "Hey, good morning! Great to see you." That's it.

That's it, but in the beginning that feels uncomfortable because they have

their routine. Maybe, for you, the baby step is to show up when you're

getting feedback and when you hear what's being said, to first take a breath,

say, "Thank you." Say, "Let me consider that and get back to you," instead of

responding in the moment. Maybe, if you're the person who doesn't give clear

directions, whose communication creates confusion, it's taking a breath, stopping,

and saying, "Are there any clarifying questions?" and allowing people the

opportunity to bring those questions forth -- and breathing while you answer

them versus getting impatient with others. Whatever your baby step is,

whatever little behavioral shift you want to make, whatever change you're

thinking about doing, remember to reward yourself for the try. Because in the

beginning, it's gonna feel uncomfortable. You might be afraid it's sloppy.

Sometimes, you might do really well with the new behavior and then fall apart.

You might come in and say, "Good morning, it's nice to see you," and then at break you might

go into a litany of how bad your evening was -- but you know what? You got a few

steps further in practicing the positive behavioral change. Commitment is easy,

change is uncomfortable, and some is good, but more is better.

Perfectionism is not the definitive success or failure as you're learning

how to do things differently. So, I'm going to ask you to think about what's

one tiny shift? What's one little baby thing that you can commit to doing

differently and seeing how it feels when you get comfortable? And remember: Some is good,

and more is better. Alright, until next time, this is Beth with your

little bit of Beth.
