three Years Ago, i Published "How Can I Become an Expert?"

In fact, that was a very stupid thing to do.

BigBadBully advised me and said: "If you want to become an expert cyclist, you need to cycle a lot. Don't forget to take breaks."

I replied: "I just wonder why some people downvote even though they were beginners like me in the past, and there is no person who was not a beginner in education. Frankly, I did not expect that someone would downvote. I expected that there would be people encouraging beginners and helping them to progress and develop. I hope you To be more respectful and loving. Thx for reading ;)"

Then he replied to me: "Why don't you just try cycling more? It'll help you develop your cycling skills."

Today, I feel bad because I didn't cycle more.

BigBadBully became an expert, and he was a newbie just like me!!

And I'm still a newbie!!!!!!

So please: If you want to become an expert cyclist, you need to cycle a lot. Don't forget to take breaks

Some think this article is silly such that one but it means something to me.

Link to the silly article: https://mirror.codeforces.com/blog/entry/119749

I may think this article is silly in the future too, who knows?

People downvote "How do I become expert" because it's a repetitive question that always has the same answer. "Practice. Solve above your level. Don't use AI." The question itself is valid but there are hundreds of blogs asking the same thing where you will find the same answer. You won't get a "one weird trick" by posting about it yourself because there's no such "one weird trick".

I'm glad you never gave up. As long as you practice consistently, you will reach expert eventually. Try doing as much 1400 rated problems as you can as a start and don't dodge contests.

You know, after reading this I've done some reflection. In the past perhaps I was racist and assumed being stupid <-> indian, but this seems to be wrong, talent stretches far beyond that, and youre a perfect counterexample as youre not indian. So let me say this instead.

If you cannot get cyan in at most 6 contests, you lack the talent for CP, some may call this $$$IQ$$$ but I dont think its directly $$$IQ$$$ either. This may be a bit harsh though, and edge cases can be considered on a case-by-case basis. In your case it is aparant that you have no talent, or perhaps even negative talent. People who cannot solve atleast 1400s cannot experience actually nice problems in CP imo, and their "i love cp" is just cope. Problems (honestly below 1900 but ive seen the occasional cool 1500 or 1700 so) are so incredibly boring and uninteresting to solve for the most point, if you think theyre nice, no you really dont dont lie to yourself.

Anyways I would suggest quitting. You clearly lack talent or fail to understand the correct strategy to improve efficiently, that is to say, lack talent in improving, which is still lacking talent, so either way you lack too much talent.

    I don't know if this is rage bait or not, but you're also bad. Talent is someone who reaches Master in 8 months. If you want to give opinions on how to improve, you should at least be good yourself.

    I will always side with the people who motivate others to keep going over the losers who think success comes out of nowhere.

    Also, the irony of someone who's clearly mid at best telling others to quit is honestly hilarious. You wrote a whole essay gatekeeping competitive programming while having like 100 problems solved at most. Maybe spend less time writing paragraphs about other people's lack of talent and more time actually grinding problems and getting good yourself.

I think practice and consistency is more important than first practicing and then taking long breaks BigBadBully u can see his heatmap it is full red he used to solve avrg 2500 rated problems for practice I think that's why he is expert not because of taking long breaks and not being consistent
