Im 41 , best advice I can give is make as many mistakes as you can. Try to calculate the risk so the aren’t that severe but enough where you can get out what you needed. I’ve tried many different jobs and have been great at almost all of them. Being great doesn’t mean you are happy with what you do, just means you are good at it. The older working generation mistook this as being happy. You are happy with what you work at when Sunday comes around and you cannot wait untill Monday to get back to your passion. Not your work. Dan Koe is exactly the person I was looking for too know I wasn’t crazy. So glad I found him after so many years of searching.
The biggest problem we face in our journey towards achieving our goals is failure, and here you are showing us that the basis of success is accumulated failure in a simple way. Thank you Dan
Newer to Dan but I stumbled upon him at the perfect time in life. It is incredible living these experiences and seeing Dan speak on them and further back what I’m feeling and thinking. Now as I create my own unique story I’m just documenting and sharing it for anyone who is right behind me on the journey in hopes they can gain the same kind of value that Dan is creating as I move to my next cycle of life.
This is great Dan, speaking on nature’s compass! I believe we all have this compass/intuition, we just have to remove fear and act on it. What most people fail to realize is the world will not grind them other under once they do act, but it will lift them up and support them. The mere act of trying puts you ahead of 90% of people. Thank you for your insight man, your videos and book is amazing. keep it up!
This video shouldn't have even been free. It's so good and resonates with my life experiences. As a token of my gratitude, I'm purchasing your 'Art of Focus' book-the audiobook version. Really good F video.
I'm really enjoying your videos bro ! I love all the psychology you put into it. Awesome information...love your bluntness and straight forward honesty...even when you get pissed off..I totally feel ya... Much appreciation over here. Namaste
seriously the way you word things is incredible! I see you as my online mentor. I am 100% buying your book also! I am a freelancer and don't enjoy it no more after 6 years, so I am ready for a new path
You’re on another level with your philosophy and approach - SO glad i discovered you and your channel ❤ I hear a lot of stoic philosophy in your communication 👏🏻👏🏻
We more easily know what we don’t want - from experience - than what we do want - from imagination. That was incredibly helpful, I’m always grateful for the synthesis you provide us Dan!
As a singer songwriter I always wondered what problem I was solving…. And even if it’s reaching a ton of people with music, the only option that aligns with me is being independent.
As a 17 old and 3 months and as a Brazilian guy i have to say that: Bro your job is amazing and im so greateful for this. Im learning english yet but i'll buy your book.
Arrived in America with $500, 7 years ago. Built out 2 sprinter vans, working on third. (Never picked up tools before) Traded those vans for a house, built out the unfinished part of house, now that rent covers our mortgage. Ready to work part time on building an online income somehow, Dan has been the perfect catalyst/mentor to keep perusing the path, brainstorming and learning skills while working on a project. Highly recommend his book, currently re reading it, with a highlighter and notepad.
As a 17-year-old dude, I'm starting to catch glimpses of the real world, and man, it's kinda scary. I'm supposed to figure out my 'career' or whatever, but how can I know for sure if it's the right path for me? It's like being told to pick my favorite ice cream flavor to eat for the next four years without ever having a single scoop. Talk about pressure, right?"
He’s right just do the stuff, I am stuck in indecision and never made up my mind and now I’m working a sales job at a car wash that just feels boring and slacking in college, can’t focus on anything or get anything done, I feel doomed but the only way out is to do new things join every club u can spend all your time learning what interests you and build upon that
Dude it's so cool how the ideas of the universe come through at the same time. Damn. Like I've been writing about this for a couple days now, it's just weird to see this pop up in my feed. Damn lol
31yr old and I'm still proud that I've subbed to this channel. So much value every upload. Even though a lot of these lessons are things i have some type of knowledge to, it's ALWAYS great to keep them on especially at work to keep myself on track. DO NOT GIVE UP ON YOURSELF, WORLD!!! YOU ONLY [HAVE] YOURSELF!!!!!
humans evolved to be social and keep track of who only looks out for them selves and how contributes and recipricates, your advice is a great way to get people to not want to listen to you
I've found ur channel only very recently n i binge watched ur videos.. what you say makes sooooo much sense that I cant help but listen to it with all my attention... Which is great for me cuz I'm severely attention deficit wn it comes to yt .. much love dan❤
I already fixed my happiness, relationships and health with a sick obsession. I always knew this was good. Where others told me my obsession is unhealty. Obsession is the only thing to truly solving your problems
I am at the end of phase 2. It took me a few years. I thought I wanted to be many things (graphic designer, web designer and many more) This wandering might be considered being lost by some but this wandering led me to Dan's content. Do NOT give up. Keep searching. I am 37. Will be 38 in one day since writing this. With todays technology you can be further ahead in 3 years than 95% of people that have been working all their life. It might take you 5 or 10 years - who cares. You can do it!

Dan, this comment is completely unrelated to the content in the video, which is fantastic by the way. Is your camera set to Auto white balance? There is a constant variation in color temperature during this video. This is usually due to Auto white balance. It will make color correction and grading very hard for the editor. I apologize, I am a video editor by trade and it is staring me in the face. Thanks for the absolutely amazing content! It is life-changing.
This sounds like how most of the people in my community live. There is so much depression and poverty. A lot of people begging for money. On lotto day sometimes the line will be out the door. Sad situation. Feels like people are just trying to survive.
Been following you since few days and I must say you are doing amazing job for the people to share knowledge about digital economy from Starving Creator.
Amazing to see that Dan basically just created a consumable way of showing us searching souls that it's possible for us too. Then those souls pop out of nowhere saying "This changed my life! This is how I did it!" - And the ball keeps rolling
You’re the first TH-camr that I sit down, turn off all distractions and take notes during their videos. Made me realize I should be taking notes on all the self improvement videos I watch. I actually learn when I focus and take notes.
Dear viewer, what would you say, what problem does entertainment solve. Does it even solve a problem that falls into the 4 eternal markets? Does it solve multiple problems?
People worry about others and society instead of thinking and doing the best thing for themselves, that's where the main problems lies. Whereas the top 1 or 5 % rich people always do what's best for themselves instead of worrying about the society. Hence they continue to grow wealthier and the middle class and the poor continue to live a safe but mediocre life.
I broke free from the golden handcuffs at 56 : you can reinvent yourself at ANY age and create a new life. Let yourself BE FREE.
Congrats... I'm 48 and ravenously consuming whatever I can get my hands on that will help me get there.
This is profound and inspiring. I'm 38 and have yet to have lived.
Agree. 48 here. reinvention in progress

Written 2 articles.
My three favorite channels: Dan Koe, Stock Brotha, & How Money Works. Make my week complete! 🔥 🔥 🔥
Wo woh these are also my favourite channels.

A mistake I have made in the past, watch a video and take consistent action. Else the knowledge is useless.
Just wow. Speechless. What a great mind. You help me a lot. Thank you so much. Much blessing in your direction !!
Dan the man. I finished your book yesterday
How was it?
@@dmxdwt3145 very insightful, definitely recommend
Crap... Just loads of philosophical musings.
It's dense af. I'd suggest getting a hard copy as you need to take it one paragraph at a time.

You are so valuable. Thank you for your clarity!

Thanks, Dan! Just bought the book today as well. Enjoy your Sunday brother!
Looking forward to day 2 of the workshop today.
Keep going bro🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Can't recommend your book and content enough. But I'll sure try.
Lost to curious to obsession 💥. Go deep, stepping into the deep! Thank you, Dan!
This must be the best advice ever

Caring about what they think is a vestige from another time. A time when our numbers were small.
A time when what others think of you could mean life or death
