i've always been a curious person, i always wanted to try a lot of things but i got scared to do them because of opinions of others. now i've started my real life and decided to do things i want to do.
Dankoe is just on a different conscious level. Your videos always hit different compared to other internet gurus. Appreciate your insight!
I've had a youtube channel about creative photography for a few years. I struggled because I felt like I couldn't do anything that wasn't photography based. Now that I watch your videos, I've been convinced to include other aspects of myself, and even just use photography as an example for something else. I'm currently planning a video about how self portraits are a tool for self discovery. I feel so much more satisfied with what I'm doing ❤ thank you for your content.
True fulfillment often lies in the pursuit of growth and self-improvement. Embrace curiosity, set your own goals, experiment, and never stop learning. It's the journey that brings fulfillment.
He’s still on TH-cam
An ever evolving challenge to pursue! Turing 65 in 2 days, it amazes me how many friends cannot believe I am not “retiring”! No, I am learning something new, digital creation via YT. Your videos at first didn’t resonate with me, because I was looking to be entertained. I have grown to appreciate the talking head approach of learning something. Thank you for sharing your knowledge, insight and wisdom. Very motivating for me to keep learning, fearing not to embrace a new challenge!
Can we all take a moment to show Dan some appreciation? 👏
Consistently valuable content and never misses.
We're all on our own journeys, but somehow still on the same journey.
We got this brothers 🤜🤛
Love the idea of thinking smart by seeing what’s working and re-formatting it through your own lens and perspective.
Ever get that feeling when you're listening to something so good, you can't cram enough of it in your ears for your brain to eat? As though your ears are massive and need to be filled more. Yeah, this. This video had me experiencing that exact bunch of weirdass feelings I just typed 😅 But seriously, thank you Dan for creating and sharing this content piece. You've expressed much of what I've felt but did not articulate, and it's gold. Thank you 😊 Have a beautiful week everyone and happy 2024! Keep expanding joyfully!
To be fair, Andrew Kirby first came up with this synthesizer idea, but he’s not on YT anymore. Regardless, always love your content Dan
True he is great and deserves the credit.
He’s on YT (I am Andrew Kirby) he describes himself as a “synthesizer” in his bio.
@@joelGisometimes when you’re a creative you can come to the same conclusions with other people. The term synthesizer is used in music since a REALLY LONG time ago. And it’s basically the same thing. The only new thing he did was to apply it to humans. Which is not a very WOW unique idea for their level of understanding of reality. It’s a normal consequence. It happened to me once, I googled my idea and I realized Einstein wrote about it.. I didn’t copy him, or heard that at school. It was just me putting dots together as a creative mind.
@@styledtothetop3579 No, he left TH-cam a couple months ago. I think he still networks with other online entrepreneurs and he has the synthesizer academy on Skool.
The synthesizer concept has actually been around for a while. It dates back to the 20th Century with the Zettelkasten method popularized by Niklas Luhmann, and with quotes from Pablo Picasso like “Good artists copy, great artists steal.” It likely dates back much earlier than that.
Dude, you are one of my new favorite TH-cam channels. I love the way you present information, raw unfiltered, and authentically.
Dope video as always Dan… i’ve adopted some of your routines lately like walking first thing in the morning and then sitting down for 2-3 hours of intense work… usually writing.
its been working out pretty good for me.
This is one of my favorites that I will put on repeat as a guide ❤. Thankful for you Dan!
I am at a transition point in my lie, and am finding your videos helpful in helping me to narrow down not only what I am going to focus on - creating the most personally meaningful direction and much needed value for the world in these uncertain times, but also the simple reminders of how to get there... Thanks for all your own synthesis in these videos...
I appreciate this..someone who resonates and has gone through the process but can actually articulate the steps throughout the process. What a rare gem. Thanks for sharing ❤.
I really want to thank Dan for guiding starting creators like me on the right path. We are benefitting so much from his wisdom about the creator economy, philosophy of entrepreneurship and actionable advice on top of that. Cheers to that, really an inspiring creator!
Your subject matter unquestionably resonates with me as I prepare for total (holistic) renovation. I am captured by your straightforward delivery, and the fabric of your content keeps me engaged. The way you take ownership of your experiences to create valuable insights with remarkable clarity is truly inspiring and quite interesting to watch. Thank you for extending your knowledge & broadening this gals perspicuity!
This resonates with the core of me. I would love to be able to put this into practice. Thank you. It’s encouraging.
Im proud of you Dan, I see your development, form less than a hundred Subs to half a million. You're my top 1 creator here in YT!
I slept on this dude SO hard.
I subscribed after the first video i watched a while back but the next one I watched I DIDN'T GIVE A CHANCE because it seemed too long and boring. (Big dummy move)
I now realize the value of this form of content and see the true genius behind how Dan views/explains these different topics.
Thanks Dan, looking forward to the new book!
Hi Dan, you are a truly inspiration man, thanks for your work, greetings from Santiago, Chile
I love that you used music as an example here. Feels like you’re literally making this to help me self actualize.
This app sounds like everything i've been looking for. Can't wait!!
My copy of your book literally came when watching this video, cant wait to dive in and read it. Cheers Dan for the all work you put into the Creator Economy!
I have been waiting for your videos...
Thank you.
Synthesizer reminds me of a concept, "everything is a remix." There is nothing truly original under the sun but through mix of multiple things you can create something "new."
Watching at of 15 to change my life
Thank you for helping to establish a standardized framework for how to view & understand us “Synthesizers”. I had a similar epiphany maybe two years ago, and when I did, I put some effort into rewriting my LinkedIn bio. What I expressed in a part of it was this:
“I see myself as a wordsmith & synthesizer. Taking all that I have learned, mixing the substance of it all & outputting the unique correlations I perceive. Perhaps a master dilettante of many subjects, the role I play could be pivotal in galvanizing your company towards innovative changes, partnerships, & re-igniting your top performers by providing them with the friendly friction & creative catalyst that draws out of them the epiphanies they needed to exceed previous limitations.”
I always felt outside the box of how I wished to operate as a solo creative entrepreneur. This perspective you shared helped validate & substantiate the kind of role that I aim to fill in the world. Thank you 🙏🏾
Solid video with a ton of value...will have to watch it a few times to absorb it all 🙏🏼
Can't thank you enough, this hit me at the right time in my life. Looking forward to reading your book. Much love - Blessings John.
Are hard copy's gonna be available on amazon as well?
Let's go!
Just got to the gym. I can't wait to listen in
I'm looking forward to your book. Thank you for your work. I find it inspiring🩷
Thanks, Dan, for another great video. I've learned copywriting and I'm working on finding my first freelance client. My mantra is to learn a valuable skill, become really good at it, and strive to be irreplaceable.
Where have you learnt copywriting ?
@jadunathbesra6637 books and TH-cam. Books like The copywriter’s handbook, cashvertising, adweek copywriting, Ogilvy on Advertising, and more.

Dan, thank you again for amazing content. Your info has helped me get beyond started with my online presence. I get so much energy from your videos 🎉
Congratulations on your new book, Dan! Getting it with my new Amazon credit 😅
I’m love with this channel 🚀
As usual, really great info!
Thank you, Dan, for this enlightening share 🌟. It truly strikes a chord and presents a refreshing contrast to the current narrative of hyper-focus. I get the ease and algorithm benefits, but for months, I contemplated starting my own TH-cam channel, and probably delayed it by trying to figure out how to 'niche' down to an extremely specific area 🤔.
Your perspective offers a breath of fresh air for new creators like me who value the richness of diversity and the importance of an open, interconnected approach 🌐.
I'm just a few months and videos into my journey of sharing a unique approach that blends spirituality with psychology. It's a synthesis that respects and incorporates a vast array of psychological assessments, spiritual systems, and divination practices, aiming to expand and diversify teachings from various cultures and times 🌍.
Your video shines a light for those of us who believe in the power of integrating a wide range of ideas and disciplines to build a platform 🌈.
I'd love to hear people's thoughts on how they feel about being called a 'master of none' 😊. What are your experiences?
you are my Inspiration for change and development thank you
So helpful, thanks!
Ahh, as always I’m brought down to reality after watching your vids and reading the newsletter. You are both a blessing and a curse for my current life.
Thank you for the video! I continue learning! 🏵🌹🌺🌻🌼🌷
This is the best video you have done!
Or perhaps I was just in the right mindset for it to sink in...
Either way, Thanks!
Pre-ordered. Followed. Noted. Stay curious, my friends!
Can’t wait for the app. I need that app 🚀🚀
Cortex sounds promising. 🥰 None of the 2nd brain app I've used doesn't reflect the way I move ideas in my own mind. They either too limited or too complicated.
@10:30 you can’t just study all day and expect to make progress
That was a hard pill to swallow
Dan articulates just what I have in mind of what I want to do with my life perfectly
Curiosity is what keeps me alive! Allot of people are curious but afraid of judgment.. NOT ME! I want to learn. 📝💎
YOU'RE WAY TOO GOOD❤
This is captivating
Appreciate the music references
Hi Dan, how can I be holistically successful by creating meditation 🧘🏽 videos? Is this possible in your opinion? I’m a beginner, but I’m earning a degree in Communication Media. I’m in my late 50s, but that means nothing to me. What skills do I need to learn for my success? I’m researching how to receive yours and others answers? Thank you for your help time and content!!!
Hey man, I'm from Indonesia... I really stupid if its about making money, but finally I found a mentor that I really need for years... Thank you man...
@@Write_Me_Now_Digit_Above360 Glad to hear that man... From which media that we should do the conversation man...?
A synthesizer is someone Dan Koe made up. Bravo. Necessary.
As a non native speaker it's hard to wrap my head around all this information. Is everything you talk about in this video also in your book?
Bro thank you soo much ❤❤
@@Write_Me_Now_Digit_Above360 what sir??
I just subscribed to the cortex mewsletter
Good morning sir
Can't wait to share w/ the world all the crazy stuff I've been working on and start earning some money.
Hi Dan,
I've been following you for a few months and I want to apply what you teach
I'm interested in the programs you provide but I found myself a bit lost, it seem to me like Modern Mastery, Kortex, Digital Economics and 2H Writer are pretty much the same program with a twist but are teaching the same path which is to build an audience online and monetize it.
Since I can't DM you from now on X as suggested at the end of the 2H Writer page,
Which program should I go for, in what order or can you explain to me what is clearly the goal of each one of them ?
Thank you for your time answering this question, I think it would be a good idea to make it a video/short or something.
Off topic, but would be great to know: What Mic do you use? Sounds amazing, thx a bunch and keep rocking! Cheers 🍻
I’m glad you’re talked about music which what I’m building my audience for. I do have a question for anyone. I was thinking about starting other TH-cam channels for comedy and travel which are my interests. Should I just put it on my music channel? Seems like it may make things convoluted
Put it all in one channel. Dan Koe has videos on this, about whether to be niche and split up, or be yourself all together. It's easy for people to skip videos on topics they don't want from a channel. It makes a channel creator look more human too. It's much harder and less likely for people to look for multiple channels from one content creator, and bookmark or subscribe to all of them, and check all of them regularly for new content. The concept of a channel as if this is television is a limiting suggestion, because it simply doesn't work that way, that a channel just plays in real time streaming all its content to subscribers when they tune to that one channel.
Imagine if some band or orchestra or whatever sort of music creator you prefer, had a channel with not just all their music, but all the other personal creations and interests of its members they're enthusiastic enough about to make videos on, and all their merch. The amount of attention and revenue they'd pick up that way, compared with music creators of similar popularity in music plays, would be phenomenal. Why not be phenomenal?
@@SonnyMoonie you’re right. Thanks for taking the time to write this. Really helpful. I’ll give it a shot. It can’t hurt my channel. 🙏🏾
Amazing
Dan, serious question about your hair lol. When it was longer it was straighter. Did you do used to straighten your hair or anything to achieve that look?
Wish you good luck. Wish you beat those giants from Paypal like Thiel. Yeah? Good competition, good product.
Dans now an advertising synthesizer 😂… but fr love the content man, never stop
Hey Dan, will you need any beta testers for Cortex?
My brother and I were talking about lobbyists and how illegal it is for corporations to run our government
What are the best 2024 platforms to build the readership?
“A synthesizer is a DJ, but with ideas…” Nice one.
Who do I talk to to become sales representative for this project. ❤🎉. This is something I can get behind 100%.
Okay
it's not Toronto. it's Torono :) Canadian people say like this...
i agree
Sorry. Contrarian dude here. “Conformity is following someone else footsteps” this seems like a message that is critical of following someone else’s path. That is how I read it. Maybe not. However, following someone else’s steps is how a great deal of amazing work gets done. Spend some time listening and reading about how Kobe Bryant approached the game of basketball. He mimicked his idols. His words. So, following others is not necessarily a bad thing. And yet Dans message here in part seems to say that. 🤔
Bro i want to talk to you
Ikr ! If he did a in person seminar I’d have to be in the room
@@jessicagrant9748 we will be there bro
“Maybe.. I actually don’t know if that’s true” 😂
Why does the book have a pdf on telegram while its not released yet
Is being a Synthesizer is a tallent or a skill u can develope?
Seriously who is this guy and why should I listen to him? He just showed up all over in my feed.
If you can code, why hire developers to help build a Saas when you can do it yourself. It’s very expensive to hire developers. But actually making the app is very cheap, I guess other than paying for high scale usage of the app. And learning how to code isn’t hard at all.
I believe that this man never laughed in his life
There's a lot of tool-noise out there, Dan. If everyone creates a new tool based on their individual expertise, we're going to forget how to use the tools that got us here in the first place.

Kinda funny there's an atom bomb going off in the thumbnail. How unstoppable are we trying to get??
Is there a reason you don’t preach dropshipping for beginners ?
Selling cheap items from China for a profit? I don't see how that's even fulfilling or purposeful in the slightest let alone a good additive to a personal brand.

Touché 😂

"you will get rare results with rare goals"
if you're reading this what rare goals do you have?
Yo Dan your videos are eye-openers. But they are too long and finishing them may even take hours because there are a lot to stop and highlight. It would be awesome if you could just made them a bit shorter.
Magnified Simplicity,
Do not spend too much time trying to grasp each illustration through a perfect lens. Many of the ideologies are accompanied with half-truths, re-imagined in Dan’s chosen disposition. Which is exciting, yet you will lack the foundational definition of numerous concepts. This may end up as a net-positive, as Dan is honest in his elevated guidance to assist others ascend, predominantly through mastered efficiency practices, absent unnecessary set-backs. This is compounded with his own personal motivations. A high-level continuance, built upon consistency of personal and professional applications. This exemplifies a real time, thorough win-win, that presents itself through diligently crafted work. With that, you may also find that your own re-imagining of a concept is better suited to you, as you developed it. Both scenarios will come: first, through Dan’s extrinsic detail; second, an accompanied adoption through intrinsic adaptation, or assimilation. Your win-win, ensured with consistent application.
Give yourself a sense of reprieve in order to maintain motivated focus on the long term goals. This can change over time, while your base motivation acts as your fail-safe.
Remember, he didn’t accomplish his ambitions over night; take high-level action, but understand that personal dedication to consistency is your most valued asset.
Dan does a wonderful job, through proportional audience delivery; therefore, taking one or two concepts from each video & mastering the specific set-point, will result in a continued gain. As he surmises it, “time under attention,” a fantastic play on verbiage analogy.
Again, do not stress yourself out before you have brought upon warranted stress, which will inherently align with becoming welcomed stress, through seeing improvement. The stress we can use as a real tool of production.
Dan takes very simple ideas, puts them into practice, and delivers those constructs to his audience. If he were being honest, I believe he would admit that he enhances his material/scripts with a higher level of surface-verbiage, or language construction, through purposed intention. Simply, a calling card.
He could very easily tone this down, yet he has created his brand through this foundational lens: by establishing his own unique definitions assigned to common material; thus, proceeding to put them into successful practice, he must continue adhering to what garnered his success.
It would be unfair to posit that he complicates simple ideals, as he is proof of the outcome. What is fair, is to understand that everything he is presenting is valuable, real, and feeling a bit overwhelmed is merely gaining an understanding that you have validity of interest. This is the foundation of success, where motivation builds into proper schema. Success is not a derivative of grasping a concept quickly, it is built through a mindset that no concept cannot be grasped with motivation.
Notice, and I’ll end with this, when you begin to understand your strengths, lean into that.
It is better to strengthen your current strengths, by fundamentally understanding where you are weak, and establishing a plan that doesn’t allow energy to be spent in that space.
Energy should never be spent… rather, it should be utilized to enhance your current value into a place of continued ascension.
Magnified Simplicity, Brandon.
