I mean everything worthwhile has already been invented by now. All niches are occupied. And i doubt that John could create something really interesting. Otherwise he would not waste his valuable time on TH-cam. But maybe he will take leave from TH-cam too. He is so young and soo naive... But in any case, I wish him good luck!
You're probably one of the most wisest 19 year old I've ever known. Heck, I'm already 27 but I still look up to you because your perspectives and diligence inspired me to be a better person. Or perhaps, I'm just actually living vicariously through you since I couldn't achieved a lot of things during my younger years :) Anyway, this is a wise decision. Good luck with your new journey! I'll be supporting you :)
Hi m doesn't matter if you're 27 or 57 ... whether You achieve much material success or not . You are getting inspired from other people and you are a curious human who is wanting to create more value for humanity,which is a great thing . You are and will do great .
tree of life yes, you're right! Age shouldn't be a factor in affecting your learning. You should learn from people of ALL ages. There's always something new to be learned :)
John i’ve been following u since 10k, so i’ve seen u grow as a person, and i’ve also seen how ur interests have changed and how u have become such an intellectually rich person. I really supoort what ur doing right here, i think is an option not everybody takes but a really wise one. I think ur making the right choice, and I know I’m not ur friend or anyrhing but i’ve followed u for a long time so maybe what i think makes u feel more confident about ur decision (don’t know if that makes sense). I’ve talked to u a couple times via e-mail, ig and yt streamings and u have helped me get in my dream univeristy here in Spain, so thank you for everything and good luck on this new chapter ur starting!!. Sorry for the bad writting hahahaha
John, you are a role model for many future Harvard applicants. Your channel represents the values that not only got you into Harvard but also make you such a lovable and mature creator! Love from India!
People like you make me so grateful for the generation of young people coming up behind my generation of young people. You all unabashedly challenge societal norms left and right and are showing everyone that there are better ways to live and go about life. Thank you for sharing this. ¡Suerte! 🙌🏾
I admire how wise and mature you are for your age. I spent the 18-23 y/o years learning a trade and discovering who I was - THEN I went back into education to study Economics. I'm 25 now and heading into my 2nd year. I feel that higher education is very important (ideally we could all pursue it once we know what interests us), but discovering who you are, what makes you happy, and where you want to be in the future are best learned from general life experience outside of education. One could say; If you have never worked a full time job with bills/rent to pay, can you really truly understand what will make you happy in the future? Hindsight is a wonderful thing: I can kick myself for the regrets I have about not pursuing a degree sooner, but ultimately, I would not change how things have played out for me, as I, like everybody, needed to explore my options and my identity before I chose a route to go down. It is precisely this experience that enables me to appreciate academia (especially economics) that much more. It is one thing to be armed with knowledge and skills, however, if you don't understand how you wish to apply them int he world, you may end up feeling unfulfilled - everybody realises this at some point. Well done fella, keep growing. Your 'rush' to an unknown end has afforded you the opportunity to enjoy the moment to it's fullest, which is where true happiness lies, from my experience. :)
Thank you so much for this. I love hearing the stories of people who went through atypical paths in their educational experience and definitely agree with you that there's a lot to learn from the real world before entering college. There are definite downsides too (especially socially), but hey--no difficult decision is without tradeoffs. Best of luck in the rest of your degree, thanks again for your comment!
ngl I screamed a little bit when I saw the title! I'm so pumped for you!!!!! I'm a firm believer in the idea of a gap year ( just finished up my own). do stuff that scares you!!! wish you all the best :D
Some people are so ShOoK that he is leaving harvard for a year. I totally understand him! School is not everything, mental health, ambitions, wishes, fun and finding out what you want in life is just as important everyone! If he thinks that taking a year off is a right decision, then it 100% is! Have a fun year and find what you really love 🙌🏻
Most of the time I’m advancing without constant introspection. this video serves as a great reminder to slow down, gain clarity and not be too tied up with mindless busyness and rush in a direction im not even sure is best for me. Thanks and have a fulfilling year ahead ! :)
John, this has really encouraged me as I am currently taking a gap year, and I wondered if it was the right choice since I felt pressure to keep up with friends. Your maturity and excitement to grow as a person while taking a break has inspired me to really make the most of this time off, and to learn more about myself. Thanks for all your effort in making and sharing videos!
It is taking leadership to be very dynamic for what the life needs and that way for example taking a year of from school-routine may allow totally different algorithm for how to compile life together. It is very awesome to be a master of ones life by seeing what different things is possible to build from ones life, and what kind of different life-building-blocks there are is deeply interesting to search and pursues. Keep up the energy, John!
Tip: The present tense in this case would be "it takes leadership," not the gerund "it is taking leadership." Your English is great though! And I agree.
You go, John! Man, you inspire me. When I took a semester off I had kinda thought I was doing the wrong thing, but it turns out it led me to one of my passions and it allowed me to explore and do lots of things. Taking a semester allowed me to just take in my life. It made me grow as a person. I support you no matter what. Nothing you do will ever be a failure unless you look to it as that. Take every moment and decision in life as an experience. We learn and we grow from them. I believe in you man!
John! Can’t believe you are coming to Montreal, my hometown. I am sure that you’ll love the city. I’m am so proud of everything you’ve done. As a 20 year old student, all of your videos inspire me so much, thank you. Can’t wait to see what idea you come with and maybe...see you soon in the streets of Mtl. À bientôt 👋
Hi! I’ve been watching your channel for a while now, and as a high school junior myself you’ve been a refreshing addition to my TH-cam subscriptions, not to mention extremely motivating and inspiring. Big props to you for making a decision like this for your self growth, and wishing you the very best for the year! Thanks for giving us quality content and helping us figure out highschool and life simultaneously.
Happy for you! I did exactly the same last year, I'm a mechanical engineering student and last year I was done with 3 out of 5 years, basically my bachelor. I back then decided to take a gap-year to do things I've always wanted to do such as enlisting in the army but also to think more about what courses I want to take in the future. Now one year later, here I am, more mature and motivated than ever to finish my last 2 years and I've also found out what masters degree I shall take. It's a wise choice in other words! My reasons were pretty much the same as yours. Have a wonderful year mate
I wish you all the luck during this next year and am really looking forward to seeing what will come out of this off-Harvard year ! Cheers from Switzerland !
When you asked people to guess your announcement on IG I was jokingly like "dropping out of Harvard" but turned out to be halfway right haha. Anyway as a fellow college student constantly undergoing life crises, your perspective is very inspiring. Wishing you the best of luck during your break!
John, Im a big fan form germany, I want that you know that I miss your website and the Articles of it. Give it any new source were are you updating us? And can you upload your growth book on Amazon.de? You have a new book list or can me recommend any books for self-help etc?
Hey John, just after watching a few minutes of the video I felt I had to pass on this wisdom (my personal experience) to you!!😁 so I just finished my first year of computer science at university in London (being from London it was the most viable option) and gradually throughout the year I discovered that there was so much more that I wanted to do- I have a background in chemistry, biology, geography and physics having studied it at A-LEVEL (exams you take to get into uni in the UK) so I had a keen interest in academic science before choosing compsci. As I already had this pre exposure I was really missing the more academic subjects as opposed to the vocational study of compsci, and as with UK Unis you usually have to focus solely on that one subject you chose for the degree. Anyway now on summer break I re-applied to start again as a freshman at a different uni to study Physical Geography. So, the whole point of this message was to say I completely think,if you have interests that lie in something you find interesting/inspiring etc FOLLOWWW ITTTTTT
Thank you for this video! I can relate to this feeling of rush, having just graduated from university. Even when you have a clear goal and you're working (or "rushing") towards it step-by-step - your video is a great reminder to pause and be patient.
I think the same thing happened to me when I was in college last year. My senior year, I started to realize that accounting wasn't for me and I started getting into web development / computer programming. Unlike you though, I was stupid and only realized all this three months prior into getting my BS in accounting lol. I still got my degree but my only wish was that I had more time to think about what I wanted to do with my life like you did. With that being said, I wish you the best of luck in all of your endeavors John!
Hey John, i live in Montreal and was wondering if you consider organizing a fan meet up or just a hang out with fans at one point (i think they are pretty much the same thing xD). I think it would be a great time and would love meeting you!!
I really like your attitude about being open minded and trying new things. I have the tendency to view mistakes as a bad thing. Thank you so much for changing my perspective on life.
When someone that cares so much for worldly ambitions such as study hard go to a good school make money finally realizes it isn’t going to make you happy and those can be other people’s goals not your own the addiction of self improvement can lead to discontentment and later depression
this video came at the PERFECT time. i’m about to go to university and i relate to the feeling of “the rush.” first it was rushing to go to graduate and go to college, and now that college is starting soon i want to rush and graduate from there so i can do what i want. but watching this has enforced the importance of pacing and taking breaks, and enjoying the moment and having patience. great content as always, john! i’m excited to see what you do in the future. :)
Keep up the good work John. I have been watching your videos for a long time now and you have been inspiring me from a young age. I would like to say thank you for that.
From experience (not mine but from a lot of people i know): For a year = Forever EDIT: It's mostly because in that year you will realize that you don't actually need college at all, and possibly even find a job in that time.
In my experience it's quite the opposite. More than half the people I know that went to uni did some sort of gap year or took a break. We're all old enough to know you don't need uni for A job but we also know that we need uni for the type of job we want. So yeah, I think a gap year is a great idea! It won't stop anyone that really wants to go to uni and for those that don't, well, it'll save them the time and money :)
Congratulations John!!! This is a really wise and brilliant decision. Will definitely be supporting, sharing your videos and can’t wait to see the journey ahead!
Congrats to you on how much you’ve developed through college. I don’t watch your videos very often but when I do, I usually become pretty inspired. I hope that you keep on growing and sharing your journey.
John... You have a lot of courage.. I have also thought about this, but I don't have the courage.. May God bless in your ventures.. I am really waiting for your next video
John, you have my upmost respect. The courage you have to do this for the pursuit of not just academic, but also self growth, has truly amplified my admiration of you. Because of you I have started to learn coding ; inevitably it is only the basic languages at this stage, but the knowledge compounds. I have also started my own channel, in part, because of you ! I wish you the very best. What a great role model you are John ! Thanks for enhancing the productivity within my life.
Hey John Fish! If you are working on something let's connect on gitHub! Would definitely be willing to look at your code or collaborate (if needed/interested). GitHub handle is: vanesa-fleurs ------> github.com/vanesa-fleurs 😊
I'm honestly happy for you John. I've been following you for a while now and I can clearly see how much you've grown (as a student, individual and creator). You are truly someone I look up to and an inspiration. Looking forward to future projects of yours. Good luck with this 'gap year'. 😄

you're so mature already 💖 i love that you always want to be a better version of yourself xx
This guy makes me feel so stupid.. love it
It was a joke bozo
From experience (not mine but from a lot of people i know): For a year = Forever
EDIT: It's mostly because in that year you will realize that you don't actually need college at all, and possibly even find a job in that time.
In my experience it's quite the opposite. More than half the people I know that went to uni did some sort of gap year or took a break. We're all old enough to know you don't need uni for A job but we also know that we need uni for the type of job we want. So yeah, I think a gap year is a great idea! It won't stop anyone that really wants to go to uni and for those that don't, well, it'll save them the time and money :)
Congratulations John!!! This is a really wise and brilliant decision. Will definitely be supporting, sharing your videos and can’t wait to see the journey ahead!
I really love all of your content.Your words are so wise and it really change me slowly.Thank you ❤️
Those are the reason i took a gap year all the best with the year you are going to do well regardless
When you go back to Harvard, will you continue to run on the team?
I'm excited for you!! Make the best experience (adventure) of it!
Congrats to you on how much you’ve developed through college. I don’t watch your videos very often but when I do, I usually become pretty inspired. I hope that you keep on growing and sharing your journey.
Favourite creator on yt! Love from India, John!
Me: Who is the best Harvard dropout?
John Fish: *exists*
Me: ワオ
Amazing video there John! I have been watching you since you had like a few thousand subscribers. Hope you soar high in everything you do. 👍
Awesome idea, go out there! Wish you happiness, a refreshing perspective too! Go do nothing and regain and come back better!
John... You have a lot of courage.. I have also thought about this, but I don't have the courage.. May God bless in your ventures.. I am really waiting for your next video

Me: YOU’RE WHAAAAAAaat?!
Edit: me watches video and understands the deeper meaning of intellectuality-
You are so inspiring and you keep me motivated to try my best in school! Thank you so much.
John, you have my upmost respect. The courage you have to do this for the pursuit of not just academic, but also self growth, has truly amplified my admiration of you.
Because of you I have started to learn coding ; inevitably it is only the basic languages at this stage, but the knowledge compounds. I have also started my own channel, in part, because of you !
I wish you the very best. What a great role model you are John ! Thanks for enhancing the productivity within my life.
Facebook 2 coming this spring
Yo John! What programming projects are u currently working on?
Hey John Fish! If you are working on something let's connect on gitHub! Would definitely be willing to look at your code or collaborate (if needed/interested). GitHub handle is: vanesa-fleurs ------> github.com/vanesa-fleurs 😊
Vanesa Fleurs Sus, all I see is stolen code...
That’s really cool man, I wish you the best. You’ll do great wherever you land
I'm honestly happy for you John. I've been following you for a while now and I can clearly see how much you've grown (as a student, individual and creator). You are truly someone I look up to and an inspiration. Looking forward to future projects of yours. Good luck with this 'gap year'. 😄
