1. Greedy Activity. 2. Dedication to Useless Tasks. 3. Drugs / Drinking. 4. Laziness. 5. Worrying about what other people think of you. 6. Servitude to people who don't give back. 7. Pursuing other people's money or worrying about your own endlessly. 8. Going after NO FIXED GOAL.
Damn straight! That's what we all need. We know what to do yet somehow we get fooled in to thinking that we need to be "taught" what to do next. Less social media + wasting time on the Internet... more doing.
+Jayden Lawson G! That's so true! You literally have just described me! It's so sad :( I've read so many self-help books and watched various motivational/inspirational TH-cam videos, but at the end of the day I always feel doubtful and think I need to learn what to do next. Just need to do it. Thanks! :-)
+Thee'Unequeltv Knowledge , Strategy then execution aka action towards your goal (must have a goal). If you have achieved the first two then what are you waiting for.
2015 Goals: Read 1 book a month Get in the best shape of my life Fire my boss Become 100% clean and sober Take my family on a vacation Take my wife on a vacation Earn more money than I ever have in my life in order to help others.
That's great! Do you find comfort in being better then others and putting other efforts down? Cause you can read a book a day but and still do nothing with your life youngster.
I wasn't putting your efforts down I was trying to show you , you can do better then that. And please don't tell me youngster. I'm doing more with my life than the 99% of the population of this planet. Sorry if I sounded a bit arrogant though. You can easily read at least 1 book per week.
***** From Donald Trump,biographies of great man like Einstein, Jobs, Julius Caesar, Alexander the Great and other "how to" or self development books to more spiritual books from authors such as Osho.
Roberto Avalos That is a defense mechanism protecting your ego. All he is saying is you have way way more potential that you can see in yourself. this quote is kinda overused but you have only scratched the surface".
really? there are some things that are lifelong lessons and not see results in 3 days like a how to manual. I suggest you focus on your life and btw I am being aggressive.
Damn, I really was hoping I would get through to you because you seemed so reasonable in your last threads. Dickrider oooooooo I feel real insecure now! Oh nooo. Finishing off my patting of the back. Yes, my following response is me caring about another person rather than myself. Damn, and now I'm a lame follower. I cannot go on living with these truths that you have enlightened me with; therefore, I will now have to kill myself smiley face. Good-bye forever almost friend but not really. Alright see you, don't reply to me because I said so!
Riley Nelson Of course "Google it" google is god and it has all the answer's to everything... Please stop you sound pathetic. GOOGLE is a SCAM if you didn't know that. Also if you haven't experienced something for yourself why would you read some crap online? The media brainwashed you.
***** she didn't say that he didn't use the word "um." He's knowledgeable and experienced enough on these subjects that you simply don't HEAR him stuttering or saying "um" every couple of sentences. Although you did take one good point from this video lol.
Mouse Emmerson I know right! I was thinking the same thing! Even during that long pause as he was processing that long statement into something more concise. Not, one, "um." He is so deliberate in was he does even his speech patterns are ultimately deliberate. IMHO.
+mai72 Pay attention in school, study, obey, and do good things and you will feel good about yourself and maby if you keep it up you will have a good future.
liu Lesley I would suggest you watch the ''how to touch everything in gold" video of tai and apply it in your life now that's great way mentality to have, you can do something customer service related and give a hundred percent with open mind
I'm in the 67 steps programa and this man is helping me to discover the full potential was not being used thank you very much Tai. Greetings from Mexico
THANK YOU! Your perspectives have helped me tremendously over the past 6 months. I combine your insight along with that of my own, and many many other master teachers Ive come across in my life. Your mentoring has been essential and impactful on my success, and continued success. I adore you, appreciate you, and love you! THANK YOU!!!!! THANK YOU!!! THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!
Gulalai Shah yes. Plus it's easier to find like minded encouragers on the internet versus real life. In real life people are too distracted and busy to have real conversations to find like mindedness for fellowship. I'm not gonna complain about it I'm just gonna be thankful for wisdom & inspiration I find when I seek. Seek & you shall find. Keep smiling ya'll!
Something about the way you present your ideas has changed my way of thinking and turned me into a being that has an absolute thirst for knowledge. I am more motivated than i have ever been in the past and it has really changed my lives: reading that is. Once i started reading i realized how much I love learning about just about everything there is to learn about. I just started reading "From the Shoulders of Giants" by Stephen Hawking and its crazy how little we, as individuals, know about past great people. All in all, thank you for inadvertently pushing me to become a great person. I'm gonna make it because of you. Thanks Tai.
I love your point about tipping vs time. You can always make more money, but you can't ever get that time back. I have always tipped 25%-50% and every now and then for excellent service I have tipped people 100%, and do that once a year at Christmas anyway since other people always need the money more than I do. I realized your point the other night at dinner where my wife and I go every Friday night. We have seats saved for us and the night we got there on prom night and the restaurant was full, except for our seats. Others were waiting an hour and half for a table but not us, our seats were waiting. We also got our drinks first, our food came out before any of the other people sitting at the bar. But we got to enjoy a nice 90 minute dinner and one-on-one time with my wife and we were leaving as the couple waiting for a table for the 90 minutes since we got there finally were being seated. How much is that time worth to you? The extra money in tip is always worth the better service and the time we save.
aly 884 everyone waiting had a reservation they were just that backed up and that busy. If people stay longer than projected or the kitchen gets backed up even if you have a reservation you can still end up waiting 90 minutes in this place.
End Goal: start up my art business, and eventually make 15 hundred a month to move out, then make more. Something to Cut: I think way too much Thing to do more of: read more about the successful people in my industry and take notes on how they do their work.
I would add TAKE ACTION from the knowledge you get from the people in your industry. It's easy to get lost in gaining so much knowledge without much action! All the best with it!
Hello tai, My name is Hector Carlos Avila. I am a 18 year old High School student who has recently been viewing your work. I have to say that you are really a true philosopher. You helped me realize that smoking and being down in the debt part of the pyramid isn't where you can find true happiness. After a week of pure dedicating my time to learning ways to become a better person, I have been able to help others gain a better understanding of what they can really be in life if they just stop procrastinating and go out and do what they want. I am going to a seminar in Twin Falls ID, for a Marketing seminar on the 19th of May to find company owners to become my mentors. Here i have provided you my answers for your questions. 1. my end goal is to be able to help give back to my community by being able to help those who are not at the best financial state to be able to succeed, as well as being able to open my own charity to help the homeless families, people, and/or poor students with food. 2. not spending so much time with the people that are below me in knowledge and the community i am in. i want to be able to have the access to have more mentors in my life that live closer to me. 3. i want to read more. I am really good at talking to others, I give them tips on how not to go through what I had to go through. I was heavily involved with smoking marijuana, and everyone in my school is starting to do those things. I want to be able to make a change in my community to help them realize that they are spending too much time of their lives around people who are going to end up scraping for money to satisfy their drug needs. I want to make an impact to those who are willing to understand what i have to say. That is something I want to do with reading more books about psychology. The crazy thing is, that i want to become a psychologist and I have already helped others get a better understanding of the world with my story. With what i had to say. I am a person who is humble and is was willing to get hurt just to help others. and i think i was wasting my time. Maybe you could help me out and give me some personal tips on how i could better myself
I love that your success never broke the person that you truly were, and are. That inspires me so much. Thank you for just being you! This world needs so many more people like you.
I watch many of our videos, and you are phenomenal. What you teach is phenomenal. I lean a lot from you, and I make sure to spend time each day to learn a bit from you. These videos are fantastic, thank you!To answer your questions, my end goal is to become the next youngest version of a Tony Robbins, sharing knowledge, inspiring people, and changing lives, (especially for other teens and youth). My main frivolous activity that I waste my time on is going on my phone, or using electronics for pointless reasons. Lastly, the biggest thing I can do to improve my philosopher side is to read more.
Tai you have changed my perspective of life forever. I'm a 17 year old trying to alleviate from failure. I have tried countless sources to improve myself but I could never truly make a change. Thank you for your help. I truely appreciate it. Thumbs up!
1:03 “It’s not that we have short time to live but that we waste a lot of it, life is long enough and sufficiently generous amount has been given to you for the highest achievement, if your time is well invested. But when it’s wasted in heles luxury and spent on no good activity we are forced to last by death to realize it has been passed away before we knew it was passing. So it is…” Damn.. Im boost up and not even going to waste my time by watching rest of 29 mins. Peace out.
We love you sir Tai. A lot of people disrespect other people. But I adore your craft no matter what other people say. I believe in your will to change the world one by one, one video at a time. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. It is with gratefulness that we share the same interest with reading books and adoring knowledge and wisdom. Take care!
I feel like this would be a good place to meet people who want to be successful in life and want to improve their lives in every aspect possible. I think it would be awesome to meet all of you, maybe even come together and help each other achieve our goals and dreams. The people that you surround yourself with affects and contributes to the progress you seek. I'm sure many of you have some sort of Social Network account for example; Facebook, Email, IG etc. If anyone would like to come together and maybe create a group on Facebook where we can discuss these types of things and possibly meet, that would be awesome.
Hey guys sorry, for some reason I just found out you guys commented here, I never got the notifications! but now that I'm here I would love to put this plan into action, reply to me if you're interested in this idea, and I mean absolutely everyone who liked and commented on my comment! Hope to hear from all of you soon.
tai lopez, man i use to just skip thru your ads, now i see that you are very inspirational person with soo much positivity and soo much dedication, i want to thank you. i got to say you are my mentor...
Maybe, or maybe it's his bragging about early age super mensa I.Q.,Bragging about his money, Bragging about his entrepreneurs skills, OR just the shitty audio quality and the annoying way he constantly moves his hands around
Tai I am on your 67 steps program In one of your tutorial you have mentioned this book and recommended to read it. Honestly the title of this book says many things "On the Shortness of Life" . I immediately got this book and trust me its amazing it has changed many things in my Life. In your this video those 8 points which you have discussed is really changed many things in me as a person and I am getting results. Reading good books is very important in life. I was lazy of reading books don't know why but during my 67 step journey I realised my biggest mistake of Life of not Reading books, I sincerely thank you very much. What Schools and Universities is not teaching which you are teaching "A real essence of life" being self taught is really cool. I wish you all the very best in your Goals you are the coolest person. God bless you.
My goal is to operate the BEST tutoring center for students in the whole WORLD. Reading, you have inspired me to read as many books as possible, sitting next to a stack as I type this comment, and it is such a wonderful thing, knowing I am growing as a person or as a "philosopher" every single day. Thank you Mr. Lopez
Brilliant one Tai. Im listening while at work and have this on 1.25 speed so it moves along quick. 1. end game: to leave at least 3 houses, cars and strong business to family 2. frivilous activity to cut: I dont know 3. which area in reading or ? makes more philosopher: to be strictly self employed working at my pace
1. Continue to develop my friendship skills, which includes being the best husband I can be, to the point at which I can teach others to do the same, and to use wisely the inspiration I receive from people close to me. 2. The only one I can currently think of is vaping, which I do a great deal of. 3. Getting back into reading (although not as an escape as it once was, instead reading for information to turn into knowledge), continue to watch your live talks when I am able to, and make sure I watch every single one of your videos.
I want to be financially free to travel, help those in need and enjoy exploring the world. I'm spending way too much time "thinking" of what to do instead of just doing. I've been having this surge of urge that something needs to be done. What? I don't know, everything I've done since it started has not been enough. Thus the deep thinking. What is IT. Watching your vids are helping me to reel in and get some grounding to make progress. I've started reading rich dad poor dad. I currently work so my partner can stay at home with our daughter, but my ambition has caught her eye. (Partner) I know like I know I know I can be doing more. Just not noticing it in full.
My end game goal is to become a great actor, I am a viner going by the name Howieazy. I started this year doing vines and almost have 7K followers. But I am burnt out. I went from doing one vine a day to 5. After watching this it helped me realize I need to step back. I love making people laugh. I never wanted something so bad which I guess made me obsessed to be the best. Tai your videos are amazing. You always have the answers I need. Thank you.
My end game? -Change the world. By means of Engineering, Music, and Love. What am I wasting my time doing? -Watching TH-cam videos. Thinking and not doing. What could make me more of a philosopher? -I am an avid philosopher. I constantly think about life to a point where it almost hinders my ability to act. That being said however, I could always read more. Thank you for your videos and your questions. I do not know your true intentions but I believe they are benign. I like your view on money, however the current monetary system is a farce, and should not be encouraged in my opinion. I think a public note needs to be introduced as Abraham Lincoln and John Kennedy did, and the value of these notes and the amount of notes should be based off of population and resources. The best way in my opinion to do this is to stop using federal reserve notes. I agree that currency is "freedom units", but the federal reserve notes are nothing but debt which can never be paid back. Interest is a scam, banks are thieves, and governments are bullies. No matter how you sugar coat it this seems true, though I could be wrong. It is my end game to change that by making resources plentiful by means of technology (which is already being done), but not slowing down production because the price of the product being sold is getting lower. That's agood thing! Resources are true wealth. Not currency. In the current system we restrict production to maintain value. Whenever something needs done they say "where's the money going to come from"? We don't need money to do anything! We need people and natural resources! There's 7 billion people on earth and contrary to popular belief and unlimited amount of resources (if we use the right ones). Needless to say, we can do a lot better. Everyone can be living "the life". Each person has to work hard yes, but first they have to have that opportunity. We're blessed with opportunity. Even me who dropped out at 16 and has no job atm. I have all the opportunity I could ask for, but many people don't have the opportunity to do anything and that's the biggest injustice there is. I choose change by first not participating in the current system. Second by embodiment of the change I want to see. Third by finding a way that works for me, and can work for everyone. No matter what financial status, faith, or political party you identify with. I do believe though that identifying with things only gives one the illusion that they know who they are, and I am antagonistic of that way if thinking. In my opinion, it is more beneficial to embody certain values by living them, but not identify with anything specific. At the end of the day, as far as I know, No one really knows what reality is. So I don't think it's beneficial to cling to your personal perception of it. But rather recognize truthfully the conditions of "reality" without flattering ones ego by thinking they know something absolutely. There is no obtainable objectivety through the human experience. It not seem like it but that may be a good thing, but who knows? Again thank you for your videos and I hope your able to help many people, and are able to ignite more critical thinking in more people. Take care, Bryce
I continue to take notes, as I watch your videos! This one is a GAME CHANGER! The Lightbulb went off! I was preoccupying my brain with worthless information! Also because of you, I AM reading more! AND it's motivating to know that I'M on my way to becoming Smarter than my College-Grad/VP of his Division at Work, Brother! My head is swimming with new information, and as I continue grabbing more of it from various places (your videos, books, talking to others, etc.), I am shedding layers of my old self/past way of thinking, and moving toward Goals and Happiness, rather than worry, and useless thoughts. You are Amazing, AND an answer to Prayer for me, so I thank you!
I just want to take a second to say to thank you Tai Lopez for spending some of your time on public access inspiration like TH-cam videos. Whether it be a form of advertisement or not, it makes waves among thousands of people. Waves that would have otherwise not existed.
My end game goal is to become an executive for a high profile company and further it by eventually becoming an entrepreneur. All while being a public speaker and a humanitarian, i believe that my purpose in life is to help others become the best version of themselves and help them realize that unity, compassion and equality is the way forward. I want to donate my wealth, time and energy into making this world a better place, one step at a time. I currently have no bad habits that i can think of, i try to be as productive and efficient as possible every single day. I am currently starting to read my only second book ever, its "Unlimited Power" By Anthony Robbins(The Life Coach you've probably heard of). I love it and i read it out loud whenever i have alone time just to emphasize the meaning of the words written. Once i finish that book, my next one will be Malcom X Autobiography by Alex Haley. I have recently begun taking my productivity on a whole another level and step by step i can already see the change happening. I already have a blog that i write on every single day, it's all my thoughts and ideas on motivation and philosophy, life advises and many other things. Totally worth to check out at nationofsuccess.blogspot.com Thank God a person like you exists Tai, you're simply immaculate when it comes to explaining complex ideas.
My boss actually asked me this question the other day, and I said that my end goal is really to share and to contribute. It has been, and always will be. I also shared this to my colleagues during our training. And I am deeply moved by this...sincerely from I can't exactly point where it is coming from.
1. I want to own and run a creative agency,where I can write and direct films and chase artistic ideas, a magazine, a eatery or foodtruck, and travel the world taking photos of the most beautiful women. 2. Spending time listening to people with no motivation to make their lives better. 3. I love to read and learn new things, but I'd really enjoy traveling and gaining a more global out look on the world.
THIS RIGHT HERE is the reason why I subscribed. TAI LOPEZ gives back to the community, to the general public, to those looking for answers. If you take the time to really listen to Tai, he will give you a heads up on what's up.
1. My life goals where given to me when I was 18 at party. They came to me in a vision that take forever to explain in detail, so the goals are a bit more defined. One bring heaven to earth or world peace. Two teach the truth and use of spirituality. Three open the doors of the universe for those in need of existing realms to achieve pure serenity. 2. I am going to be honest man I'm sure all 8 things that book listed I've been alowing to hold me back yet some i have seemed to conquer an be free from. On that note, Thank you for taking your time to make this video. It has opened my eyes an clarified things I've known but haven't manned up so to speak. Thank you. 3.Read books on or about theology, nerology, astrology and a little bit of everything that has to do with how people view life. Meditating on the things I've learned so I can use them in my life and understand the best way to achieve success. Talk with new people every day to spread the information I've gained and have a different or better view on what I have learned. Pray an always stay in contact with God every second/heat bet. No matter where I am or what I'm doing.
Great video. At first I didn't want to watch any Tai Lopez, because I was annoyed with all of his ads. but he puts out some really good videos. Volume was a little low on this one though. had a hard time hearing it on my morning "listening to TH-cam motivational speakers" walk.
3. Read more books and listen to more of Tai Lopez (Came across your ad for the first time today and I am so glad that I did...forever grateful) 2. I spend too much time on thinking about things like you said that I should give little thought to, my first priority is to change the way I've been thinking. 1. End game goal, start a new business and become financially secure, I look forward to learning from your experience and please be encouraged, what you are doing is a very great thing.
1. To find something I love to do and be the BEST st it. Right now, i am very into Competitive Programming and so i want to be the best at it. 2. games and movies. 3. books,tapes, seminars. Thank you Tai!
Tia, I know you probably here this all the time, but your an amazing person. Not many people would spend their time waiting to teach others to be better. The world needs more thinkers like you around. You do such a great job simplifying solutions so that it just clicks in the brain. I've found myself many times going "oh shit, its really just that easy" :-) Thank you. You've open my eyes to so much in just two weeks of watching your videos. I just wanted to thank you.
I seriously got so many gems from this on video! I just ordered the book! can't wait to read it! my end game goal - to become a successful well-known singer-entertainer /entrepreneur frivolous activity- sleeping too much and not socializing enough! whats going to make me more of a philosopher?- I already have a mentor whose showing and teaching me everyday to become a grown woman/singer/ independent etc... I'm going to continue to read as much books as I can and optimize my time to the best of my ability.
One thing I hate is that you're shut down a 33.3% of your life, as in, if you were to live 90 years you've spent 30 years sleeping, 30 freaking years of not living life! is ridiculous. If we were to modify our body and brain nature to just need 2hrs of sleep instead of 8hrs we'd technically have increased our life span.
+giorgiomx Sounds like you're being greedy... sleep will remind you that you need time to do the essential things properly, like sleep, eat, hydrate... without allocating time to the most important things to nurture life, how can you be expected to do so in other areas of your life?
Fei-Ling Tseng ??, just cheap marketing from your part, I can do better: use the time saved from sleeping to do "non-greedy" things or whatever you're referring to here, and ...while being awake. The rest of your comment doesn't make sense, sorry: _"Sleep will remind..."_ Well how about not needing a reminding?, or at least 33% of your life, right? _"without allocating time to the most important things to nurture life"_ By sleeping on it?, as in, being unconscious?, as in, not doing them? Remember... 33% of your life of not doing anything, not even think consciously.
Nwovance Well, yes, in regards to ...living your life, being asleep is like not being alive or not existing for 8hrs each day. Is like, I don't care about oxygen and I think you don't either, but I'm required to have it, requiring oxygen just gives us more ways to die and less freedom in our surroundings.
Let me just note, that doing something that you enjoy that others might find frivolous isn't a waste of time. Ultimately we do have a short life span. So anything that brings you joy, whether it be drawing, writing, etc. Is NOT a waste of time. If you feel compelled to do something then do it. I feel like everybody thinks that they have to be the next bill gates or steve jobs in order to be successful. But if your goal is something more humble like getting your kids to college or getting out of debt or simply getting a better job then that time is NOT wasteful. Everyone has their own ideas of what success is. You can be a success in your family, community, department, whatever. As long as it makes you happy. Success does not need to be determined by how much money you make. Success is what you make of it. So all in all configure your life to what YOU want in life so YOU are happy. That's what matters here.
I'm not sure everyone feels the need to be Bill Gates etc to prove to themselves that they are successful. Success in anyone's eyes should be achieving the goals that one sets out to achieve. What Seneca wanted to say was that we have enough time to achieve our goals but we spend so much of our it procrastinating and messing around that we stress about not having enough time to achieve them. The point is to prove to yourself that you are spending your time achieving your success, not success in the eyes of others.
My end-game goal is to absorb all of the 67 Steps program plus to eliminate procrastination and build on the momentum I'm already experiencing to get back into my life's mission of passing on God's blessings for the furthering of His kingdom here on earth. I'm stopping self-imposed servitude to thankless people and obsessing about the past. Reading history, biographies, the greats and classics like this are going to be my road to the philosophy I've been missing! Great share! Thanks so much TAI!!!
1. What is your end game goal? Earn my doctorate in medicine. 2. What frivolous activity are you doing? Videogames 3. Which area of your life is going to make you more of a philosopher? Read more, and think of how the new knowledge can build onto my life and my goals.
1. End game goal for me is to become an inspiration to kids or people that you really can do whatever you put your mind too, especially shy kids because I used to be shy and I want to show them and anyone that you can overcome anything in life. 2. Social Media I get on it wayyy too much. 3. Read more and more and more. I used to hate reading but after reading for a little while I'm starting to really like it.
Endgame: I want to get drafted by Major League Baseball, and sign a contract substantial enough that I could invest a portion of the money to my own business that I can bring to my hometown. I must fill my brain with more knowledge, primarily through reading philosophy everyday. I find myself planning out my life. I don't spend my time wisely enough to accomplish my daily goals.
I'm absolutely in love with your mind... I was skipping your ted talk for long time due to its title... I don't fancy people who brag about how much they read only to bust their egos, I have to say that you are not the case. You just gained a subscriber ;-)
You inspire me man .. i wake up every morning heating my job.. on my way to work i put up one of your videos and i notice that my job is a temporary thing ..your video has codes, need to listen carefully for the massage. .
Not me, I searched a topic and his video was the first on the list. Had no idea who the heck he was. Liked the content, watched more videos and subscribed. Still haven’t watched any with lambos or whatever else he’s famous for and don’t plan to.
I love the inspiration I get from each of your videos. I'm so grateful for the motivation that you put daily in my life. Here are my goals. 1.(End Goal) Become a true Disciple of Christ by.. 2. Avoiding video games and eliminating laziness by not planning too much and learning to manage my thoughts and goals to act more efficiently and.. 3. Making time to read more often. You have reminded me of a scripture.. "If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him. But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that waverth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed." -James 1:5-6 I personally believe that we all have a loving Heavenly Father who wants to bless us and all we have to do is ask. When we take time to meditate and listen to those good thoughts that bring us peace and joy we can have confidence to then act. I learned an important lesson from our beloved prophet, President Thomas S. Monson from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, that when God speaks and man obeys that man will always be right. Again I am grateful for your advice and it is always up lifting, and I hope as another brother in this world that I can share with you a little inspiration from myself. #BuildingBonds #LDS
Funny thing is that rather than doing my homework and assignments.... im watching you Tai... Im fucking procrastinating.... again.... In fact.... Im going to stop procrastinating! Starting tomorrow...
It's like building momentum, pick something small do it and pick a series of little goals then do them all one by one until your achieving at them easier then do two at once and when your ready and feel the fire burning inside you and your full of confidence take a bigger goal and smash it
kaboriginal You mean what if the universe and your place In it were a constantly shifting whole and the only way to fit in is to constantly shift. To flow like a river, bend like a reed in the wind, eternally surf the breaking wave. It will never catch on.
Maybe it's like Steve Jobs said in his commencement speech. You can't connect the dots looking forward, you can only connect them looking back. Sometimes doing the wrong thing is preparation for doing the right thing. I think the advise given in the earlier response is good advise.
Great video tai! Since you asked the questions, 1. I am currently in school and will apply to a graduate Physician Assistant program 2. Sleep 3. I think attending conferences or seminars would be best for me. I don't know how often or IF you even check these but, how do you be frugal with time when you have no time to be frugal with? I'm currently working 2 jobs, one full time the other part time, and going to school. I don't spend a lot of time going out or watching tv. At most, I'm on my phone at before bed.
I wish so badly Tai could be my mentor! So many of the things he says hits home with me. To have someone that could shine light on the road to your dream would be priceless!
He can be through his online mentorship, whether is free youtube videos, or you go through his 67 steps program. He has plenty of mentorship trainings that are just as awesome if not better than this video
I've read like a hundreds of articles about how to stop procrastinate, videos too, and It still doesn't get me going. What do you think is the problem here?
Not the proper motivation. I was in the same boat as you until I really found my passion and set up goals to make my dreams come to life. Start goal setting, it'll be one of the best things you ever discover
Tai you're very generous bringing this info for free for the greater good. I have to admit when I fist saw your "here in my garage" video, I assumed it was a get rich quick type scheme. Now that I have watched your videos I know you are a good person that helps others. Thank you very much
I just started watching your videos, at the beginning of this video I was so pissed off at my life now I feel I'm getting an inner peace halfway through video
Vi Nguyen 8 reasons you haven't accomplished your goal: 1. Greedy activity 2. Dedication to useless tasks 3. Drinking or drugs 4. Laziness 5. Worrying what others think 6. Self imposed servitude to thankless people 7. Pursing other people's money or worrying about your own 8. Going after no fixed goal, tossed about in ever changing plans by a fickleness which is shifting.
1- greedy activity 2 - Dedication to useless tasks 3 - Drink or drugs 4 - Laziness 5 - Worriyn what other people think about you 6- self impose servitude to thankless people 7- pursuing others people money, or worrying abou your own (make someone else rich or endless worrying about making youself rich) 8- going after no fix goal - (dont have a fixed goal in life, shifting around ) my english isnt very goo to but i think it is this
Vi Nguyen don't waste time with things that have no substance/don't mean anything to your final goal. that's summarized the whole thing pretty much 😂 just spend your time in the right way, down to the seconds wasted lying in bed trying to get up.
Honestly this Channel is what i've looking for it has opened my mind i wish that everyone who read this have accomplished their end game have a good day😃
If science could allow humans to get the equivalent of a full night's sleep in the period of one hour the extra length of time we are actively awake and alive would be incredible. This would add decades to our lives. I mean we would still be alive for the same amount of time but we would be awake and outside actively living for so much longer. Imagine if edison or hawking had all this extra time to live and think.
1. Greedy Activity.
2. Dedication to Useless Tasks.
3. Drugs / Drinking.
4. Laziness.
5. Worrying about what other people think of you.
6. Servitude to people who don't give back.
7. Pursuing other people's money or worrying about your own endlessly.
8. Going after NO FIXED GOAL.
thanks
The activity that I need to cut is watching all these self help videos. I need to take what I know and implement it.!
Damn straight! That's what we all need. We know what to do yet somehow we get fooled in to thinking that we need to be "taught" what to do next. Less social media + wasting time on the Internet... more doing.
+Jayden Lawson G! That's so true! You literally have just described me! It's so sad :( I've read so many self-help books and watched various motivational/inspirational TH-cam videos, but at the end of the day I always feel doubtful and think I need to learn what to do next. Just need to do it. Thanks! :-)
+Jayden Lawson Awesome comment,and everyone tweet it out!!
+Thee'Unequeltv lol xD
+Thee'Unequeltv Knowledge , Strategy then execution aka action towards your goal (must have a goal). If you have achieved the first two then what are you waiting for.
I read the book and I had tears in my eyes half the time. Ain't nothing worse than a wasted life
+Lucius Vorenus how come?
+Morocco Dude The book will really make you think and question the state of your life and what is happening to you and everyone else in today's world
Are you serious?????
We have eternal life with Christ you just have to repent trust me I've had amazing experiences with God the king of all things

2015 Goals:
Read 1 book a month
Get in the best shape of my life
Fire my boss
Become 100% clean and sober
Take my family on a vacation
Take my wife on a vacation
Earn more money than I ever have in my life in order to help others.
Read one book per MONTH? I'm 14 and I read one book per 3 days.
That's great! Do you find comfort in being better then others and putting other efforts down? Cause you can read a book a day but and still do nothing with your life youngster.
I wasn't putting your efforts down I was trying to show you , you can do better then that. And please don't tell me youngster. I'm doing more with my life than the 99% of the population of this planet. Sorry if I sounded a bit arrogant though. You can easily read at least 1 book per week.
***** From Donald Trump,biographies of great man like Einstein, Jobs, Julius Caesar, Alexander the Great and other "how to" or self development books to more spiritual books from authors such as Osho.
Roberto Avalos That is a defense mechanism protecting your ego. All he is saying is you have way way more potential that you can see in yourself. this quote is kinda overused but you have only scratched the surface".
My father gave me and my other siblings The Shortness of Life for our 16th birthday present. I urge every parent to do the same.
Your father really loves you and is a wise man!
What's the book about?
really? there are some things that are lifelong lessons and not see results in 3 days like a how to manual. I suggest you focus on your life and btw I am being aggressive.
You know guys, he doesn't have to do this. He's doing it because he wants to. He's doing this to help people achieve health wealth love and happiness.
haha he's promoting himself man, if there was nothing in it for himself im sure he wouldn't bother with this..
he has had funding from his mentors which he has said, starting form different level will
*****
but why what?
Damn, I really was hoping I would get through to you because you seemed so reasonable in your last threads. Dickrider oooooooo I feel real insecure now! Oh nooo. Finishing off my patting of the back. Yes, my following response is me caring about another person rather than myself. Damn, and now I'm a lame follower. I cannot go on living with these truths that you have enlightened me with; therefore, I will now have to kill myself smiley face. Good-bye forever almost friend but not really. Alright see you, don't reply to me because I said so!
Riley Nelson Of course "Google it" google is god and it has all the answer's to everything... Please stop you sound pathetic. GOOGLE is a SCAM if you didn't know that. Also if you haven't experienced something for yourself why would you read some crap online? The media brainwashed you.
Just finished reading this book. The brilliance of Seneca cannot be questioned. Timeless wisdom in this book.
I love how I didn't hear a single "um" in this video. Really informative!
Mouse Emmerson
0:58, 2:28, 4:44 ...Time spent on no good Activity... Yes.
***** she didn't say that he didn't use the word "um." He's knowledgeable and experienced enough on these subjects that you simply don't HEAR him stuttering or saying "um" every couple of sentences. Although you did take one good point from this video lol.
Beautiful, beautiful!
Mouse Emmerson I know right! I was thinking the same thing! Even during that long pause as he was processing that long statement into something more concise. Not, one, "um." He is so deliberate in was he does even his speech patterns are ultimately deliberate. IMHO.
LOL! Good point. Didn't even catch it! Hilarious! Maybe wisdom makes all kinds of noises or none at all. Who knows.
I'm only 12 and I have no idea what he is saying but I'm sure that it will help me in the future.
Same as me
I'm 10 and I feel the same way
+mai72 Pay attention in school, study, obey, and do good things and you will feel good about yourself and maby if you keep it up you will have a good future.
liu Lesley I would suggest you watch the ''how to touch everything in gold" video of tai and apply it in your life now that's great way mentality to have, you can do something customer service related and give a hundred percent with open mind
liu Lesley it will
I'm in the 67 steps programa and this man is helping me to discover the full potential was not being used thank you very much Tai.
Greetings from Mexico
how much does it cost? do you feel its worth it?
Ricardo Sosa when you finish, can I use it?
Ricardo Sosa who is this man that is helping you , can I reach out to him ? is he your mentor ?
1. make a lot of money to help people
2. stop procrastinating
3. read books
Make a lot of money helping people, think about it ;)
THANK YOU! Your perspectives have helped me tremendously over the past 6 months. I combine your insight along with that of my own, and many many other master teachers Ive come across in my life. Your mentoring has been essential and impactful on my success, and continued success. I adore you, appreciate you, and love you! THANK YOU!!!!! THANK YOU!!! THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!
I love the way he give the definitions of a word and shows examples. We can all learn from this great man.
He is *The Teacher*
thank you so so so much, i can't describe how blessed i feel to have internet as my guide rather than as my ruin as most people around me
Gulalai Shah yes. Plus it's easier to find like minded encouragers on the internet versus real life. In real life people are too distracted and busy to have real conversations to find like mindedness for fellowship. I'm not gonna complain about it I'm just gonna be thankful for wisdom & inspiration I find when I seek.
Seek & you shall find. Keep smiling ya'll!
WOW...one of the BEST videos I have ever seen...THANK YOU!
Something about the way you present your ideas has changed my way of thinking and turned me into a being that has an absolute thirst for knowledge. I am more motivated than i have ever been in the past and it has really changed my lives: reading that is. Once i started reading i realized how much I love learning about just about everything there is to learn about. I just started reading "From the Shoulders of Giants" by Stephen Hawking and its crazy how little we, as individuals, know about past great people. All in all, thank you for inadvertently pushing me to become a great person. I'm gonna make it because of you. Thanks Tai.
I love your point about tipping vs time. You can always make more money, but you can't ever get that time back. I have always tipped 25%-50% and every now and then for excellent service I have tipped people 100%, and do that once a year at Christmas anyway since other people always need the money more than I do. I realized your point the other night at dinner where my wife and I go every Friday night. We have seats saved for us and the night we got there on prom night and the restaurant was full, except for our seats. Others were waiting an hour and half for a table but not us, our seats were waiting. We also got our drinks first, our food came out before any of the other people sitting at the bar. But we got to enjoy a nice 90 minute dinner and one-on-one time with my wife and we were leaving as the couple waiting for a table for the 90 minutes since we got there finally were being seated. How much is that time worth to you? The extra money in tip is always worth the better service and the time we save.
I am a big tipper too, 50% few times. If I were that couple who waited 90 minutes, I would had made a reservation next time so not to have to wait.
aly 884 everyone waiting had a reservation they were just that backed up and that busy. If people stay longer than projected or the kitchen gets backed up even if you have a reservation you can still end up waiting 90 minutes in this place.
Gordon Miller awesome advice
Serena Williams Thanks
Gordon Miller wow great real world example to help ppl get a brighter understanding.
End Goal: start up my art business, and eventually make 15 hundred a month to move out, then make more.
Something to Cut: I think way too much
Thing to do more of: read more about the successful people in my industry and take notes on how they do their work.
Good Luck..U can do it
Go. Go. Go. You got this! ;D
I would add TAKE ACTION from the knowledge you get from the people in your industry. It's easy to get lost in gaining so much knowledge without much action! All the best with it!
Cam How is accomplishing your Art Business going?
Cam did you accomplish your end goal yet?
i can listen to you all day !!!! love how you just explain it smoothly!!
Hello tai,
My name is Hector Carlos Avila. I am a 18 year old High School student who has recently been viewing your work. I have to say that you are really a true philosopher. You helped me realize that smoking and being down in the debt part of the pyramid isn't where you can find true happiness. After a week of pure dedicating my time to learning ways to become a better person, I have been able to help others gain a better understanding of what they can really be in life if they just stop procrastinating and go out and do what they want. I am going to a seminar in Twin Falls ID, for a Marketing seminar on the 19th of May to find company owners to become my mentors. Here i have provided you my answers for your questions.
1. my end goal is to be able to help give back to my community by being able to help those who are not at the best financial state to be able to succeed, as well as being able to open my own charity to help the homeless families, people, and/or poor students with food.
2. not spending so much time with the people that are below me in knowledge and the community i am in. i want to be able to have the access to have more mentors in my life that live closer to me.
3. i want to read more. I am really good at talking to others, I give them tips on how not to go through what I had to go through. I was heavily involved with smoking marijuana, and everyone in my school is starting to do those things. I want to be able to make a change in my community to help them realize that they are spending too much time of their lives around people who are going to end up scraping for money to satisfy their drug needs. I want to make an impact to those who are willing to understand what i have to say. That is something I want to do with reading more books about psychology.
The crazy thing is, that i want to become a psychologist and I have already helped others get a better understanding of the world with my story. With what i had to say. I am a person who is humble and is was willing to get hurt just to help others. and i think i was wasting my time. Maybe you could help me out and give me some personal tips on how i could better myself
I love that your success never broke the person that you truly were, and are. That inspires me so much. Thank you for just being you! This world needs so many more people like you.
I cant help but feel like me being here is procrastinating...
But at the same time these videos are such eye openers.
I watch many of our videos, and you are phenomenal. What you teach is phenomenal. I lean a lot from you, and I make sure to spend time each day to learn a bit from you. These videos are fantastic, thank you!To answer your questions, my end goal is to become the next youngest version of a Tony Robbins, sharing knowledge, inspiring people, and changing lives, (especially for other teens and youth). My main frivolous activity that I waste my time on is going on my phone, or using electronics for pointless reasons. Lastly, the biggest thing I can do to improve my philosopher side is to read more.
I'm procrastinating on writing an essay by watching this video.
ur not the only one
Visualise the impact you will make on people who read what you wrote.
Same
Tai you have changed my perspective of life forever. I'm a 17 year old trying to alleviate from failure. I have tried countless sources to improve myself but I could never truly make a change. Thank you for your help. I truely appreciate it. Thumbs up!
Same Feeling...
1:03 “It’s not that we have short time to live but that we waste a lot of it, life is long enough and sufficiently generous amount has been given to you for the highest achievement, if your time is well invested. But when it’s wasted in heles luxury and spent on no good activity we are forced to last by death to realize it has been passed away before we knew it was passing. So it is…”
Damn.. Im boost up and not even going to waste my time by watching rest of 29 mins. Peace out.
We love you sir Tai. A lot of people disrespect other people. But I adore your craft no matter what other people say. I believe in your will to change the world one by one, one video at a time. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. It is with gratefulness that we share the same interest with reading books and adoring knowledge and wisdom. Take care!
I feel like this would be a good place to meet people who want to be successful in life and want to improve their lives in every aspect possible. I think it would be awesome to meet all of you, maybe even come together and help each other achieve our goals and dreams. The people that you surround yourself with affects and contributes to the progress you seek. I'm sure many of you have some sort of Social Network account for example; Facebook, Email, IG etc. If anyone would like to come together and maybe create a group on Facebook where we can discuss these types of things and possibly meet, that would be awesome.
oh i would be for it!
just let me know! :)
I would join let me know if you create it.
Totally in !
Hey guys sorry, for some reason I just found out you guys commented here, I never got the notifications! but now that I'm here I would love to put this plan into action, reply to me if you're interested in this idea, and I mean absolutely everyone who liked and commented on my comment! Hope to hear from all of you soon.
hardcorelifeforus000 I'm in !
tai lopez, man i use to just skip thru your ads, now i see that you are very inspirational person with soo much positivity and soo much dedication, i want to thank you. i got to say you are my mentor...
99% of people who come and hate on his videos aren't thinking hard enough about the things he is saying.
+Albert Ye That's what i was thinking. Maybe they don't pay enough attention.
Not even close guys. You have an insane amount of life to live, don't worry about that.
Maybe, or maybe it's his bragging about early age super mensa I.Q.,Bragging about his money, Bragging about his entrepreneurs skills, OR just the shitty audio quality and the annoying way he constantly moves his hands around
Tai I am on your 67 steps program In one of your tutorial you have mentioned this book and recommended to read it. Honestly the title of this book says many things "On the Shortness of Life" . I immediately got this book and trust me its amazing it has changed many things in my Life. In your this video those 8 points which you have discussed is really changed many things in me as a person and I am getting results. Reading good books is very important in life. I was lazy of reading books don't know why but during my 67 step journey I realised my biggest mistake of Life of not Reading books, I sincerely thank you very much. What Schools and Universities is not teaching which you are teaching "A real essence of life" being self taught is really cool. I wish you all the very best in your Goals you are the coolest person. God bless you.
In my previous life as a sperm I have risen above everyone else and won... Now it's time for me in this life as a man to rise above everyone else!
My goal is to operate the BEST tutoring center for students in the whole WORLD.
Reading, you have inspired me to read as many books as possible, sitting next to a stack as I type this comment, and it is such a wonderful thing, knowing I am growing as a person or as a "philosopher" every single day.
Thank you Mr. Lopez
I'm 16 and from London. I'm glad i found these videos, I procrastinate with absolutely everything and its fucking annoying . Very inspirational
Same thing.. but Im 13 lol... also, why do you have an American flag if you're one of us?
Londoner through and through. Just a funny pic thats all
Feel your pain bro. These vids are a god send. Also check out TylerRSD IF you want to take your thinking to the bext level.
Funny you say that. love Tyler and Julian. I'm into PUA too myself, check out Street Attraction on TH-cam.
francis Newman Wooooord, I'm 15 and about 2 or 3 years ago I found rsd. Don't know where I'd be without tyler. Probably crying in my bed daily
Brilliant one Tai. Im listening while at work and have this on 1.25 speed so it moves along quick.
1. end game: to leave at least 3 houses, cars and strong business to family
2. frivilous activity to cut: I dont know
3. which area in reading or ? makes more philosopher: to be strictly self employed working at my pace
I love ya Tai!!
You're a great influence on my life.
1. Continue to develop my friendship skills, which includes being the best husband I can be, to the point at which I can teach others to do the same, and to use wisely the inspiration I receive from people close to me.
2. The only one I can currently think of is vaping, which I do a great deal of.
3. Getting back into reading (although not as an escape as it once was, instead reading for information to turn into knowledge), continue to watch your live talks when I am able to, and make sure I watch every single one of your videos.
This video has been in my watch later list for 3 months now. I keep procrastinating.
I want to be financially free to travel, help those in need and enjoy exploring the world. I'm spending way too much time "thinking" of what to do instead of just doing. I've been having this surge of urge that something needs to be done. What? I don't know, everything I've done since it started has not been enough. Thus the deep thinking. What is IT. Watching your vids are helping me to reel in and get some grounding to make progress. I've started reading rich dad poor dad. I currently work so my partner can stay at home with our daughter, but my ambition has caught her eye. (Partner) I know like I know I know I can be doing more. Just not noticing it in full.
My end game goal is to become a great actor, I am a viner going by the name Howieazy. I started this year doing vines and almost have 7K followers. But I am burnt out. I went from doing one vine a day to 5. After watching this it helped me realize I need to step back. I love making people laugh. I never wanted something so bad which I guess made me obsessed to be the best. Tai your videos are amazing. You always have the answers I need. Thank you.
James James thank you very much I'm glad I can be of some help
Carlos Alejandro Torres-Montiel thank you for the advice
git gud scrub, 200 vines a day not that hard
Wow! 5 years later and this all stands to be true... I'm so in love with the truth
My end game?
-Change the world. By means of Engineering, Music, and Love.
What am I wasting my time doing?
-Watching TH-cam videos. Thinking and not doing.
What could make me more of a philosopher?
-I am an avid philosopher. I constantly think about life to a point where it almost hinders my ability to act. That being said however, I could always read more.
Thank you for your videos and your questions. I do not know your true intentions but I believe they are benign. I like your view on money, however the current monetary system is a farce, and should not be encouraged in my opinion. I think a public note needs to be introduced as Abraham Lincoln and John Kennedy did, and the value of these notes and the amount of notes should be based off of population and resources. The best way in my opinion to do this is to stop using federal reserve notes. I agree that currency is "freedom units", but the federal reserve notes are nothing but debt which can never be paid back. Interest is a scam, banks are thieves, and governments are bullies. No matter how you sugar coat it this seems true, though I could be wrong.
It is my end game to change that by making resources plentiful by means of technology (which is already being done), but not slowing down production because the price of the product being sold is getting lower. That's agood thing! Resources are true wealth. Not currency. In the current system we restrict production to maintain value. Whenever something needs done they say "where's the money going to come from"? We don't need money to do anything! We need people and natural resources! There's 7 billion people on earth and contrary to popular belief and unlimited amount of resources (if we use the right ones).
Needless to say, we can do a lot better. Everyone can be living "the life". Each person has to work hard yes, but first they have to have that opportunity. We're blessed with opportunity. Even me who dropped out at 16 and has no job atm. I have all the opportunity I could ask for, but many people don't have the opportunity to do anything and that's the biggest injustice there is.
I choose change by first not participating in the current system. Second by embodiment of the change I want to see. Third by finding a way that works for me, and can work for everyone. No matter what financial status, faith, or political party you identify with.
I do believe though that identifying with things only gives one the illusion that they know who they are, and I am antagonistic of that way if thinking. In my opinion, it is more beneficial to embody certain values by living them, but not identify with anything specific.
At the end of the day, as far as I know, No one really knows what reality is. So I don't think it's beneficial to cling to your personal perception of it. But rather recognize truthfully the conditions of "reality" without flattering ones ego by thinking they know something absolutely. There is no obtainable objectivety through the human experience. It not seem like it but that may be a good thing, but who knows?
Again thank you for your videos and I hope your able to help many people, and are able to ignite more critical thinking in more people.
Take care,
Bryce
I continue to take notes, as I watch your videos! This one is a GAME CHANGER! The Lightbulb went off! I was preoccupying my brain with worthless information! Also because of you, I AM reading more! AND it's motivating to know that I'M on my way to becoming Smarter than my College-Grad/VP of his Division at Work, Brother! My head is swimming with new information, and as I continue grabbing more of it from various places (your videos, books, talking to others, etc.), I am shedding layers of my old self/past way of thinking, and moving toward Goals and Happiness, rather than worry, and useless thoughts. You are Amazing, AND an answer to Prayer for me, so I thank you!
Just bought this book... should have it tomorrow .... there is something ironic in that ;)
I just want to take a second to say to thank you Tai Lopez for spending some of your time on public access inspiration like TH-cam videos. Whether it be a form of advertisement or not, it makes waves among thousands of people. Waves that would have otherwise not existed.
My end game goal is to become an executive for a high profile company and further it by eventually becoming an entrepreneur. All while being a public speaker and a humanitarian, i believe that my purpose in life is to help others become the best version of themselves and help them realize that unity, compassion and equality is the way forward.
I want to donate my wealth, time and energy into making this world a better place, one step at a time.
I currently have no bad habits that i can think of, i try to be as productive and efficient as possible every single day.
I am currently starting to read my only second book ever, its "Unlimited Power" By Anthony Robbins(The Life Coach you've probably heard of). I love it and i read it out loud whenever i have alone time just to emphasize the meaning of the words written.
Once i finish that book, my next one will be Malcom X Autobiography by Alex Haley. I have recently begun taking my productivity on a whole another level and step by step i can already see the change happening.
I already have a blog that i write on every single day, it's all my thoughts and ideas on motivation and philosophy, life advises and many other things. Totally worth to check out at nationofsuccess.blogspot.com
Thank God a person like you exists Tai, you're simply immaculate when it comes to explaining complex ideas.
My boss actually asked me this question the other day, and I said that my end goal is really to share and to contribute. It has been, and always will be. I also shared this to my colleagues during our training. And I am deeply moved by this...sincerely from I can't exactly point where it is coming from.
This is a great book it should be mandatory reading at school.
great review.
1. financial freedom and travel
2. social media
3. gotta think about
1. I want to own and run a creative agency,where I can write and direct films and chase artistic ideas, a magazine, a eatery or foodtruck, and travel the world taking photos of the most beautiful women.
2. Spending time listening to people with no motivation to make their lives better.
3. I love to read and learn new things, but I'd really enjoy traveling and gaining a more global out look on the world.
THIS RIGHT HERE is the reason why I subscribed. TAI LOPEZ gives back to the community, to the general public, to those looking for answers. If you take the time to really listen to Tai, he will give you a heads up on what's up.
Everyone should be thinking at this level
The great majority of humanity is spiritually and psychologically ill; we can't until that is resolved.
1. My life goals where given to me when I was 18 at party. They came to me in a vision that take forever to explain in detail, so the goals are a bit more defined. One bring heaven to earth or world peace. Two teach the truth and use of spirituality. Three open the doors of the universe for those in need of existing realms to achieve pure serenity.
2. I am going to be honest man I'm sure all 8 things that book listed I've been alowing to hold me back yet some i have seemed to conquer an be free from. On that note, Thank you for taking your time to make this video. It has opened my eyes an clarified things I've known but haven't manned up so to speak. Thank you.
3.Read books on or about theology, nerology, astrology and a little bit of everything that has to do with how people view life. Meditating on the things I've learned so I can use them in my life and understand the best way to achieve success. Talk with new people every day to spread the information I've gained and have a different or better view on what I have learned. Pray an always stay in contact with God every second/heat bet. No matter where I am or what I'm doing.
Great video. At first I didn't want to watch any Tai Lopez, because I was annoyed with all of his ads. but he puts out some really good videos.
Volume was a little low on this one though. had a hard time hearing it on my morning "listening to TH-cam motivational speakers" walk.
3. Read more books and listen to more of Tai Lopez (Came across your ad for the first time today and I am so glad that I did...forever grateful) 2. I spend too much time on thinking about things like you said that I should give little thought to, my first priority is to change the way I've been thinking. 1. End game goal, start a new business and become financially secure, I look forward to learning from your experience and please be encouraged, what you are doing is a very great thing.
Another good one man, thank you.
1. To find something I love to do and be the BEST st it. Right now, i am very into Competitive Programming and so i want to be the best at it.
2. games and movies.
3. books,tapes, seminars.
Thank you Tai!
Will check out Seneca on the Shortness of Life!
it's on TH-cam as an audio worth paper back do both!
I've been studying success and discovered a fantastic resource at Magic Progress Shortcut (google it if you are interested)
Tia, I know you probably here this all the time, but your an amazing person. Not many people would spend their time waiting to teach others to be better. The world needs more thinkers like you around. You do such a great job simplifying solutions so that it just clicks in the brain. I've found myself many times going "oh shit, its really just that easy" :-) Thank you. You've open my eyes to so much in just two weeks of watching your videos. I just wanted to thank you.
it's a great book about time and life....... i actually read that book in one day
Need a coach like you!
"Mentor"
All the top points just were hitting me like a bullet
🙏🏻
so happy I found your channel
I seriously got so many gems from this on video! I just ordered the book! can't wait to read it! my end game goal - to become a successful well-known singer-entertainer /entrepreneur
frivolous activity- sleeping too much and not socializing enough!
whats going to make me more of a philosopher?- I already have a mentor whose showing and teaching me everyday to become a grown woman/singer/ independent etc... I'm going to continue to read as much books as I can and optimize my time to the best of my ability.
You should read "Guide to the Good Life"
It contains everything that is in the "shortness of life" and ...a ...lot ...more
Have a good read!
Unnain Connu can u tell aurther name please.

Unnain Connu Thank You
I love how someone from nothing came to be such an amazing inspiration..and rich too
One thing I hate is that you're shut down a 33.3% of your life, as in, if you were to live 90 years you've spent 30 years sleeping, 30 freaking years of not living life! is ridiculous.
If we were to modify our body and brain nature to just need 2hrs of sleep instead of 8hrs we'd technically have increased our life span.
+giorgiomx Sounds like you're being greedy... sleep will remind you that you need time to do the essential things properly, like sleep, eat, hydrate... without allocating time to the most important things to nurture life, how can you be expected to do so in other areas of your life?
Fei-Ling Tseng
??, just cheap marketing from your part, I can do better: use the time saved from sleeping to do "non-greedy" things or whatever you're referring to here, and ...while being awake.
The rest of your comment doesn't make sense, sorry:
_"Sleep will remind..."_
Well how about not needing a reminding?, or at least 33% of your life, right?
_"without allocating time to the most important things to nurture life"_
By sleeping on it?, as in, being unconscious?, as in, not doing them?
Remember... 33% of your life of not doing anything, not even think consciously.
This is on the basis that being asleep you have no activity, but i understood your point.
Nwovance
Well, yes, in regards to ...living your life, being asleep is like not being alive or not existing for 8hrs each day.
Is like, I don't care about oxygen and I think you don't either, but I'm required to have it, requiring oxygen just gives us more ways to die and less freedom in our surroundings.
the sleep is the goal. dweeb.
Started watching Tai's videos after all the parodies of his ad, but damn I actually love his videos. Glad I found them.
Let me just note, that doing something that you enjoy that others might find frivolous isn't a waste of time. Ultimately we do have a short life span. So anything that brings you joy, whether it be drawing, writing, etc. Is NOT a waste of time. If you feel compelled to do something then do it.
I feel like everybody thinks that they have to be the next bill gates or steve jobs in order to be successful.
But if your goal is something more humble like getting your kids to college or getting out of debt or simply getting a better job then that time is NOT wasteful. Everyone has their own ideas of what success is. You can be a success in your family, community, department, whatever. As long as it makes you happy. Success does not need to be determined by how much money you make. Success is what you make of it.
So all in all configure your life to what YOU want in life so YOU are happy. That's what matters here.

I'm not sure everyone feels the need to be Bill Gates etc to prove to themselves that they are successful. Success in anyone's eyes should be achieving the goals that one sets out to achieve. What Seneca wanted to say was that we have enough time to achieve our goals but we spend so much of our it procrastinating and messing around that we stress about not having enough time to achieve them.
The point is to prove to yourself that you are spending your time achieving your success, not success in the eyes of others.
Dude I love how you think. I'm not surprised that you are where you're at in life. Keep up the videos they are gold.
Whoa this video is amazing! 🙌🏾
My endgoal is pretty much helping the world and being happy while doing that and now im gonna read a book. Peace and thanks for the value tai
I love the background of stacks of books!
My end-game goal is to absorb all of the 67 Steps program plus to eliminate procrastination and build on the momentum I'm already experiencing to get back into my life's mission of passing on God's blessings for the furthering of His kingdom here on earth.
I'm stopping self-imposed servitude to thankless people and obsessing about the past.
Reading history, biographies, the greats and classics like this are going to be my road to the philosophy I've been missing!
Great share! Thanks so much TAI!!!
1. What is your end game goal? Earn my doctorate in medicine.
2. What frivolous activity are you doing? Videogames
3. Which area of your life is going to make you more of a philosopher? Read more, and think of how the new knowledge can build onto my life and my goals.
Aaron Marin just commenting to remind you to check over this again and see your progress. :)
Gears of War? :D
This is the only video I have watched of Tai Lopez and I must say this was very informative.
I may not read a book a day, but I watch one of your videos a day ;)
This guy GRASPS the value of knowledge and therefore markets himself. Self made man. Respect that.
"be stingy with your time" - AWESOME
1. End game goal for me is to become an inspiration to kids or people that you really can do whatever you put your mind too, especially shy kids because I used to be shy and I want to show them and anyone that you can overcome anything in life.
2. Social Media I get on it wayyy too much.
3. Read more and more and more. I used to hate reading but after reading for a little while I'm starting to really like it.
Endgame: I want to get drafted by Major League Baseball, and sign a contract substantial enough that I could invest a portion of the money to my own business that I can bring to my hometown.
I must fill my brain with more knowledge, primarily through reading philosophy everyday.
I find myself planning out my life. I don't spend my time wisely enough to accomplish my daily goals.
I'm absolutely in love with your mind... I was skipping your ted talk for long time due to its title... I don't fancy people who brag about how much they read only to bust their egos, I have to say that you are not the case. You just gained a subscriber ;-)
Great video, Tai. I'm motivated.
You inspire me man .. i wake up every morning heating my job.. on my way to work i put up one of your videos and i notice that my job is a temporary thing ..your video has codes, need to listen carefully for the massage. .
More videos like this. Fewer of the Lambo.
lambo got you into watching him (grabbed your attention), these videos made you stay and continue watching him.
Not me, I searched a topic and his video was the first on the list. Had no idea who the heck he was. Liked the content, watched more videos and subscribed. Still haven’t watched any with lambos or whatever else he’s famous for and don’t plan to.
I love the inspiration I get from each of your videos. I'm so grateful for the motivation that you put daily in my life. Here are my goals.
1.(End Goal) Become a true Disciple of Christ by..
2. Avoiding video games and eliminating laziness by not planning too much and learning to manage my thoughts and goals to act more efficiently and..
3. Making time to read more often.
You have reminded me of a scripture..
"If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.
But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that waverth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed."
-James 1:5-6
I personally believe that we all have a loving Heavenly Father who wants to bless us and all we have to do is ask. When we take time to meditate and listen to those good thoughts that bring us peace and joy we can have confidence to then act. I learned an important lesson from our beloved prophet, President Thomas S. Monson from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, that when God speaks and man obeys that man will always be right.
Again I am grateful for your advice and it is always up lifting, and I hope as another brother in this world that I can share with you a little inspiration from myself.

Funny thing is that rather than doing my homework and assignments.... im watching you Tai... Im fucking procrastinating.... again....
In fact.... Im going to stop procrastinating! Starting tomorrow...
You're pointing toward(what I personally refer to as,) productive hobbies- crochet, creating "happy accidents" in the kitchen, yoga, ect.
what if your end game keeps changing.. leaving you in a constant state of indecision?
It's like building momentum, pick something small do it and pick a series of little goals then do them all one by one until your achieving at them easier then do two at once and when your ready and feel the fire burning inside you and your full of confidence take a bigger goal and smash it
Find a solid end goal.
kaboriginal You mean what if the universe and your place In it were a constantly shifting whole and the only way to fit in is to constantly shift. To flow like a river, bend like a reed in the wind, eternally surf the breaking wave. It will never catch on.
Maybe it's like Steve Jobs said in his commencement speech. You can't connect the dots looking forward, you can only connect them looking back. Sometimes doing the wrong thing is preparation for doing the right thing. I think the advise given in the earlier response is good advise.
Huzar1683w was ugh we can aqqml aty were
Great video tai! Since you asked the questions, 1. I am currently in school and will apply to a graduate Physician Assistant program 2. Sleep 3. I think attending conferences or seminars would be best for me.
I don't know how often or IF you even check these but, how do you be frugal with time when you have no time to be frugal with? I'm currently working 2 jobs, one full time the other part time, and going to school. I don't spend a lot of time going out or watching tv. At most, I'm on my phone at before bed.

I wish so badly Tai could be my mentor! So many of the things he says hits home with me. To have someone that could shine light on the road to your dream would be priceless!
He can be through his online mentorship, whether is free youtube videos, or you go through his 67 steps program. He has plenty of mentorship trainings that are just as awesome if not better than this video
I've read like a hundreds of articles about how to stop procrastinate, videos too, and It still doesn't get me going. What do you think is the problem here?
Deeper rooted problem maybe? Depression? Can't give you the answers but I suspect you have a true idea
laziness. admit it
You not willing to act upon what you have learned
The problem is that you need more KNOWLEDGE!!!
Not the proper motivation. I was in the same boat as you until I really found my passion and set up goals to make my dreams come to life. Start goal setting, it'll be one of the best things you ever discover
Tai you're very generous bringing this info for free for the greater good. I have to admit when I fist saw your "here in my garage" video, I assumed it was a get rich quick type scheme. Now that I have watched your videos I know you are a good person that helps others. Thank you very much
Because a 30 minute video on how not to procrastinate was a good idea.
People make fun of him but he has an extremely well balanced lifestyle
who makes fun of him? wow ..oh well.. we know about not caring what others think/say
I just started watching your videos, at the beginning of this video I was so pissed off at my life now I feel I'm getting an inner peace halfway through video
can anybody be good enough to summarize the 8 ways? my English is not that bad but I couldn't make out what he was saying.
Vi Nguyen
8 reasons you haven't accomplished your goal:
1. Greedy activity
2. Dedication to useless tasks
3. Drinking or drugs
4. Laziness
5. Worrying what others think
6. Self imposed servitude to thankless people
7. Pursing other people's money or worrying about your own
8. Going after no fixed goal, tossed about in ever changing plans by a fickleness which is shifting.
1- greedy activity
2 - Dedication to useless tasks
3 - Drink or drugs
4 - Laziness
5 - Worriyn what other people think about you
6- self impose servitude to thankless people
7- pursuing others people money, or worrying abou your own (make someone else rich or endless worrying about making youself rich)
8- going after no fix goal - (dont have a fixed goal in life, shifting around )
my english isnt very goo to but i think it is this
Vi Nguyen don't waste time with things that have no substance/don't mean anything to your final goal. that's summarized the whole thing pretty much 😂 just spend your time in the right way, down to the seconds wasted lying in bed trying to get up.
Honestly this Channel is what i've looking for it has opened my mind i wish that everyone who read this have accomplished their end game have a good day😃
If science could allow humans to get the equivalent of a full night's sleep in the period of one hour the extra length of time we are actively awake and alive would be incredible. This would add decades to our lives. I mean we would still be alive for the same amount of time but we would be awake and outside actively living for so much longer.
Imagine if edison or hawking had all this extra time to live and think.
