Thanks for having me on and listening to our story! 😄
Loved the story. Many reasons why people don't create is because of the fear of failure. Your persistence is motivational. Stay safe and God bless💯🙏🏽
David seems so honest and legit. So refreshing to see.
Very inspiring, thanks for sharing!
crazy story. thank you for sharing
loved your story man. i think i in the same way, now i 25 yo and live in my parents house to build my business. thank you man
That line broke me "my parents were always so kind to me"..... thats what you can achieve with foundation....
Yes
❤❤
life is tough so just blame your parents and move on...
I wish my parents were that kind. I feel like my parents are only taking care of my needs because they are Christians and that's how they should act, not because they are purely good people. They sometimes say to me, "para kang damulag" which means, " you are like a bumbling fool'
@@zarihmanDont discount them yet, they may come through for you at a time of extreme need or sickness when you really need help
You were never a loser bro. You were always grinding, and learning. Its about progress, not perfection.
You're saying this now because you didn't see him during his difficult times. You would have advised him to focus on school instead of the things he was doing
@@poa2.0surface77 Well, I wasn't talking to you either
U selling you TH-cam page
That is 10 years of learning. Not 10 years of failure.
Failure is learning.
10 years of attempts
i agree 100%
Yeah. I studied longer and learned not that much to be honest.
Best thing you can do to become rich is drop out. Colleges train you to become a work slave, not a boss.
Good parenting makes such a difference, his parents love him and I'm glad he shows his appreciation for them with honest emotions!
have you ever had parents?
You got me at 04:20. No fancy stories about million-dollar startups, just the way people treated you in your early days. This really resonates with me! Thank you so much for sharing.
Shout out to his parents too for standing by his side not making him feel like a looser.
Well, this guy is not a loser. This guy is a winner is a real winner. He actually invested in passion and turned it into fortune. Congratulations mate.!
That story is full of massive rollercoasters which almost brought me to tears. It hits a little too hard with the cancer diagnosis aspect since my Dad passed from lung cancer literally 5 months ago.
That positive mindset with business, health, and relationships is something that I need to strive for more of in my life. Congrats David, you're an amazing legend!
This has got to be one of the craziest roller coaster stories ive ever seen. Your positive attitude speaks volumes on your success both in business and health. What a dude. Respect
yeahh....true
Wow, this story kept me listening. " My parents were always so kind to me". Beautiful.
Thanks, David Park for not giving up and thanks Pat from Starter Story.
Inspiring!
❤ moments of reflection like these can really bring you to tears. I’m happy for you and your success David! Onwards and upwards 🎉
Inspiring man and story, props to you for making it through it all !
So much power and honesty in this video. You are a beautiful person. Happy for your success!
Inspiring story, support from parents and grit were instrumental. I like this video format where the guest is clearly the main character of the show with no rambling two-cents from the host. Well done. Liked and subscribed.
Nothing but a legend. I wish you the best from now on. Inspiring and emotional story
Amazing story and amazing presentation here. Well done!!
Glad to be one newsletter that David sponsored to help share this tool to many more people.
David - you’re a rock star. From how you talk, I know you’ll be even more successful than whee you are!
Your channel reminds me of the Beehiiv founder and creator Tyler Denk as a side note! Building in public one of the best newsletter platforms on the planet. That's an amazing concept, Kevon! Keep it up!
Thanks Nate!@@thelifewithnate I've slowed down a bit on my video creation part but still going strong with my education business. I appreciate you taking the time to say this :) I'm checking out your videos, you rock on too!
Wow. What a beautiful and hard journey with so much knowledge along the way. Big respect 🙏❤️
In life when you’re living your purpose that doesn’t align with the norm of society, the journey is lonely and people criticise you but when you have somuch passion for what you want to become nothing can stop you but death. I’ll rather die than to give up mentality is something only some people have, I’m grateful that I have that mentality and heart.
This is outstanding content. The story, the editing, the music -- kudos to you.
Man it is so nice that the dude is successful!
Supporting Parents can really give you unbelievable Power!
Ugh! Thanks man! Now I'm in love with this guy because of how much he loves his mom & dad!
Phenomenal story. God bless him. And that verse, whew. More blessings!
This is so profound. Thank you for sharing us your story.

Damn David keep it going and all the best. Thanks for sharing this wonderful "real" startup story @Starter Story
Thank you to the nurses and the doctors!
Such an incredible story. I'm currently in the chapter 1 yet I won't give up!
thats it. Family is the foundation for everything and for every success. Supportive family lead to successful kids while broken family lead to broke kids. Its great to watch story of success like this eventhough im in the broken category.
thanks for the video, I really appreciate your work and hope you make it further !
Very inspiring and passionate man! Definitely learn so much from his sharing!❤️

Amazing story, every entrepreneur goes through phases in life.
Best wishes to David and team to keep kicking off even higher 😀
Amen brother. I am rooting for you
you give respect to your parents. that's how you succeed. salute man.
This was so worth the watch...indeed helpful
Guys this is beautiful! I am a founder and I can relate so much wtih David! Beautiful story. Specially the part of his parents believing in him! Go David!!!
What a story this man is amazing thanks you both for sharing his story 💖
I'm so happy for him that he had amazing parents. My parents were always kind to me but never believed in business or anything aside from going to school and getting a job. There was always food on the table and they helped me with what I needed for normal life but I never got any support doing what I wanted if it wasn't aligned with their point of view. Well, I got the opposite, they were discouraging me from doing it so I never believed in myself. Only after I went to live alone I could finally do what I wanted. There is still zero support from them in anything out of the ordinary and I am the only one who believes in myself, but at least there is no negative feedback. I just never talk about what I do.
Seems like such a genuine guy. Super happy that he succeeded!
What a lovely guy! Good for you David. Loved this story...
Such an amazing young man. I applaude you 🙏🏾🇬🇧
We are starting something I perceive as great start up company with great vision. We are currently in our about 2 years of developing and struggle and this video helps me ignite more the fire with me and continue the struggle because I know we will be successful. Maybe not this year but the year to come, when it is our time! Godspeed
All the very best.You can do it.
It may be hard, but once u start, dont stop.
You got this! You can do it! I believe in you!
I feel ya ... But where in this together... Good luck 🤞
Thanks you David, so inspiring ❤️
I need more stories like this.
How inspiring! I was bowling my eyes out through out the video. David is an amazing storyteller. What a journey. True testimony that leaving things to the Higher power changes life in ways that you never ever imagined. Good luck to David, thanks for sharing his journey with us.
Stay blessed 🙏🏽🙏🏽

I am so happy this guy loves his family and appreciates what they wanted him to do. His major skill is persistence!!! He deserves success!!! Thank you Starter Story!!! I don’t think anyone should have to go through this!!! Persistence is key to success. !!!
This is a great one thank you for sharing such an inspiring story, I have this dream of becoming a filmmaker, and it is such stories that keep me going even though many times it feels like a dream so hard to make happen due to the fact that am living a life filled with challenges that always make me feel its a dream that will never happen.
