Default meaning

What is the meaning of the red parts?
Whatever you tell yourself or other people, studying with the TV or radio on adversely affects your ability to absorb what you 're trying to learn. The same goes for any background music which competes for your attention. Choose music you find pleasant, not incredible.

The first means "No matter what you believe", and therefore tell other people...
The second is a lamentable use of a word which used to mean "unbelievable", but now usually means "great, awesome, fully sick".
