Life Pro Tip, go hiking I swear when you're alone in the mountains there's some strange things that go through your mind and these things make you realize a shit ton of things about you and what REALLY matters.
totally agree with this one. When you are alone, all tired and somewhere far away from everyone else and nobody can hear your stupid problems, that time is magical for self exploration. When you're tired, there is no energy for bullshit, so you see real yourself and with that comes realisation what you want from life...
@@dragonjay7277 he meant that you still have a 5 yr window to risk it all for a dream you have. The world out there is really difficult and hateful and will chew you to bones if are naive enough to just enter without thinking (means just get any job for the big money.) He rather advises to live a bit scarce instead with roomates but try to get the dream job if possible. And even if you fail in that window, try to find a "enough" job with enough money and enough work load. No need for extra too much.
im 23 its been a year and a half into my grind...no results yet, its hard and massive risk but ive doubled and tripled my knowledge and experience and still going.. stay strong!
Haha thanks! Going back to fitness and health! Helping people get results through sustainable actions and motivating people to becoming the best versions of themselves!
Hey man! Well I have always shown entrepreneurial traits as a kid, selling sweets, chinese takeaway after schools, etc etc so they had faith in me. Lucky for me they have my happiness as their number 1 priority and they knew i wasn't in the corp world!
Daniel Yeung great that you are taking the risks now! This is the best time to do it as he says before you have responsibilities. I have spent my 20s feeling obligated...largely by parental expectations...to jump into a "safe" job.
Just graduated and everyone's starting to get their life together, and here I am getting rejected from jobs, but thank you Gary Vee, I definitely needed to hear this!
After college, (Two year associate), i went straight into the trades, paid off what little I owed to the school the first year. Don't get me wrong, I'm not exactly rich, I never went a day hungry.
@@Lily-ow5wm In my case, the course was related. I took electrical engineering technology, which was more technician level. After that, I went into the electrical trade. I highly recommend a two year program as a first step rather than dive head first into a university. Way more affordable, easier to change courses, and many of them offer certification programs as well.
@bharat ahirmost of the consumption of content is by average mentality people. He's just cashing that opportunity. There is million times better talks but only high intellect consumer hence making those real talented people less famous for example ken wilber !
Listen to this guy! I'm 31 with a wife and kid now. I still have a lot of chances left, still young, but I tell you, it just gets harder and harder. It's so easy to piss away your time, work hard while you can!
I graduated with a science degree...started a business right after graduating and my parents are Soo disappointed lol I showed my parents this video and they said Gary has no idea what he's talking about 😂 my parents believe school is the only way and I have to stop listening to them! It's hard enough focusing on your biz without haters lol I have haters in my own home 😂😂
Same...and the fact that i have no clue what to do and seeing all my friends doing stuff that earn money...it feels like i am just a waste of space in the world....
@Zohal Azizi Maybe she's too busy with the hustle game to the point she doesn't have time to check youtube's notifications. We should do like her and drown to the hustle and grind as well
Awesome man but watch out you don't become a 'sugar ' addict only doing this until the sweet taste goes off then only doing that for a bit. The grass is greener where you water it bro! Best of luck to you
I should say. Now I’m 32 and I’ve been searching for that 3000$ job when I was young. However, I suddenly realized that everything’s fine even when I seek my own purpose and leave the job. Now I get paid more than ever and am happy as fuck. What he’s talking is absolutely true. Thx for good videos.
I glad that u r living ur life the way u want. I'm 17 and still in highschool, but I feel that I could do and achieve more. Thanks to the motivation of u guys give.
@@akashverma4280 bro i am also 19 years old i have a best plan for business but there is two option to complete graduation or doing my business plz help me ?????
I grew up in a very bad environment and spent my teenage years being a worthless thug, but I realised I wanted to do something more with my life so I did the swedish version of SAT. I did it well enough to get into a nice university and education (master of science in industrial engineering and management), but it was hard seeing as I never had studied seriously before and had to learn the high school stuff as well as the things on our curriculum. I failed the first year "epically", but I retook all classes and got through it. My grades were horrible at first, but I will graduate next month with really good grades; a real struggle I might add. I was a late bloomer though. When all the 24 year olds started to leave the university, I entered it. It took time to mentally get from being a low-life who more or less ignored life and whatever it entails to become someone who enjoys life, wants to learn and grow and, instead of wasting time, gets things done. I'm 30 now and behind most of my kin in that sense, but I'm working part time just to get enough money for rent and food so I can spend as much time as possible to grow my business and doing what I want to do. I'm confident that it's not too late; that I will succeed and do what I want to do. My "five year window" is just beginning even if I'm "too old" for some people.
Watched this in May 2017 when I graduated uni. It gave me the drive I needed. Since graduating, I worked my way up and now make $170k. But I hate my job (software engineer) and I plan to make a career switch when I’m 26. Every time I decide to do something big and daring, I rewatch this. Gary, I hope you realize how thankful I am for seeing this when I was young
Omg exactly the same story. I just took a job that I don't like because I wanted to be independent. Now I'm quitting without any idea of what I'm going to do next. It's scary but it's also liberating. I do get carried with the thought that my friends are earning better money or having a better life, but then I realize that's not what I want.
At 21 years old, I decided to not follow my classmates who were straight trying to find a job. I had a strong desire for traveling and decided to leave France to go one year hitchhiking in NewZealand and meeting tones of people’s from everywhere in the world. In just 2 years (I’m 23 now) it’s insane how much I feel I changed and grow. Not just that traveling opened my mind, it help me to know myself ! And learn English, and get experience in other industry, and discovering meditation, and learning so much things through people and books, and gave me the drive to start my business in video. Today, just 2 years after, I’m in Australia, willing to travel over the world now for at least the next 5 years. At the time I’m saving money working in my industry, video and social media, enjoying my hobby which has been to create a TH-cam channel about my travel, and just living the dream. Thanks Gary for saying this to everyone, I really believe that following what drive you is the key for fulfilment, but more than that, you will learn that when you believe hard in something, and that everyday you try even to do a little things in that way to achieve your goal, you always get something from it. Not that you will for sure get what exactly you want, but you will embrace a journey that will make you proud of yourself and gives you hips of opportunities to discover yourself. I wish you a good day everyone, and hope that this kind of videos can be life changing for you ❤️
yeah im glad i seen this i actually blew my refund check on trying to pursue my music career and failed miserably but after seeing this ive realized i still have a chance
I did that from Age 16-24. Huge set back. Yeah, I toured the country and made a lot of memories, but basically it set me back BIG time financially and education wise.
I'm 22 man. Fuck yeah. I'm allowing all opportunities to come my way and I'm taking them all to find out what I'm good at. I have little responsibilities and I'm ready to sleep under a bridge. I've been grinding for a couple months and I'm determined to keep momentum. I'm excited for life Gary! I fucking swear I am.
Gary, I'm 21 and about to graduate in a couple weeks. There is so much I want to do with my life and I know I won't achieve it if I work a 9-5. This is my promise to you that I will take every risk possible to achieve my goals... Thank you for this message!!
I'm 20 this year(in college) and running my own startup to bridge the gap between university students and the workplace. My startup got selected to exhibit at RISE Hong Kong 2017 and I'll be flying there from Malaysia this July. I hope I get a chance to meet you as you will be attending too. You have been one of my biggest inspirations!!
Hey I’m in the same situation! I’m 20 years old and have already started a startup for college students to find, view, attend, and create parties and events on an exclusive server. Except you are much more ahead of me😂 I’ll get there though check out my progress at www.kegg.co
I was lucky enough to watch this video 6 years ago as I was graduating at 23. The message was always in the back of my head since then. I moved countries, completed my studies, worked at different companies, gained an incredible amount of experience, became a different person, and still haven't forgotten this video, still grinding with hunger. Thanks man for these life changing 5 minutes.
Many people make the mistake of comparing themselves to others in terms of age, and thinking, "Ah, I'm good, I'm only 16/18/20 now, I still have time", and go back to playing that video game, or partying, or whatever else falls under #yolo. If you're reading this - don't procrastinate. I quit the office job I hated a few months ago, never looked back. All that "office job" time I now dedicate to TH-cam (it's a Russian channel, so I'm not self-advertising). Amazing video.
I am 18 and I've dropped out of university (one semester in ahaha..) to pursue my passion in music. I know exactly what I want to do and won't stop until I get there. I have been grinding for the past month and have seen nothing but results so no way I am stopping now. btw, if anyone needs music for vlogs/videos feel free to use some of mine :)
Hey I'm 22! This year I started a TH-cam channel I actually like, I started to write articles on medium and I'm finally trying to sell some on my smaller paintings online. Because of my chronic illness I will never be able to gring 18 hours a day, but I will give my best effort to making my dreams come true and having fun doing it. Thanks for the advice, I will reach out to a media team and try to get an internship and learn from them.
I figured out at age 28 when I got laid off from a job (with a Masters Degree by the way) that it was time to go after my Dreams!!!!!!! Everything Gary is saying is true and I am glad I started taking control of my life in my early 30s by leaving my job and starting my own business :)
I’m 22, just graduated from the college. I’ve been watching this same video again and again to sync in with the advice. Now when I’m actually graduated I can really relate, how hard is the world outside, forcing us to live the laterally -structured life and goals. When we have our passion and dreams set up against the dogma of structured ones. And Here I’ve decided to go completely uncertain about the terms of life following my passion. Trying hard to be process oriented and being happy with the moment itself. Doing what I love. Thank you Gary for such life changing advice 🙌🏻🙌🏻
I'm 24 and I just lost my dream job about 2 weeks ago. I just stumbled on this video again and I can't even begin to explain how encouraging and insightful and motivating this is right now, beyond grateful for it :)
sorry if this is personal but could i ask how did you lose the job? I am 18 and worried about future job security, and have no experience in the 'real world'
@@lavaboy1565 well i had just been hired in january at a start up and then in march covid hit and the quarantine dramatically changed how the company operated and they weren't sure if there was going to be enough work for me so I was laid off. I was unemployed for a couple months trying to find a new job but then in like July I texted them just to catch up and they were actually back in a place where they could hire me again so I got my job back and I've been working there full time since! :) I had absolutely no real world experience at 18 and only got my first job at 19 and it was at a chickfila haha, so I feel that, definitely is terrifying attempting to enter the workforce and build a career but the more experience you get the easier it gets to handle it, just try things and find people to help you figure it out. never be afraid to reach out and ask for help :)
@@brebytheway that’s awesome. Im 22 and about to graduate this May with a degree in finance. I know I want to become a financial advisor, but I haven’t had an internship. COVID hit when I became a senior, so there was a lot of uncertainty. I have a very good GPA, and I have passed an unlicensed finance exam that separates me from most applicants. However, I just feel intimidated as I’m entering a new chapter. I guess my question is, will not having an internship lose my chances of getting an entry job?
I'm 19, not going to college nor do I want to, literally the day after high school I started a door to door sales job, worked 15 hours a day... Did this for about a month. After that month, got another sales job going b2b selling credit card processing machines, did that for about a month. After this, got another sales job selling cable tv out of huge retail stores.Through this 3-4 month period, fresh out of high school, gained valuable hustler experience ... developing the hustle, the mindset I needed to pursue my dreams, developing empathy to understand how to talk w/ & to people, etc. About 3 months ago, I quit all jobs (learned all I needed to learn) started my own thing (creative(s) marketing)... From the jump, it wasn't easy... Now, with God, the mindset... So much is happening, RAPIDLY, in the span of 6-10 months. AND THIS ISN'T EVEN THE BEGINNING... The resources/knowledge I'm now being exposed to, the work ethic I'm developing... Man... Thanks God & thanks Gary 😂
Gary, the year you made this video I was 22 years old. I'm now 26, and have a delivery business. This video has made all the difference. Thank you for giving me the courage to take the leap and also move with urgency. I'm gonna take your advice and grind harder than ever while I still have youth and time.
I graduated college just last year. I am 29 now. It took me 10 long years to finish college because I basically didnt like the degree my mother wanted me to take in college so I really had a hard time finishing it. Now, I kinda have an idea on what I really want to do and explore ever since. But it really is scary taking that huge leap of faith, to believe in what I am yet to do and achieve. I do hope it's not yet too late to start this journey. I do hope I succeed.
@@devindhoojeet905 I'm living the life I wanted now after almost 3 years of posting this comment. Everything's much clearer and aligned now. I actually didn't want to comment when you checked on me before coz I was still in the process of figuring things out but hey, the journey was so worth it. 🙌
graduating college in 3 weeks with no debt. i have no job currently. i have no clue what i even want to do! this video helped a lot. but still need to get some type of money and really find myself. awesome video
Aesthetic Eric I feel ya man! I graduated 3 months ago and in the same boat. Only difference is I do have a debt but it's not a lot. If I'm going to be in debt I might as well invest in something important, such as education.
I'm 20. I have a decision. Go to college in september to study business which everybody around me is telling me to do. Or, learn from home and start executing an online business now.
Best video I've seen from you... "Go and travel and learn" it was like you were validating everything I am currently doing while all the others sit back hate and judge. I dropped out of college at 18 years old so I could pursue my dream: TRAVEL THE WORLD. I've been traveling consistently for over 3 years now. I'm learning so much and collecting so many experiences. Sure I've been homeless and slept in train stations, slept on floors in many countries, ate at fast food joints because of the little money I had. Even though it was a struggle... I fuckin' loved every bit of it. Now I'm building the business of my dreams to help others make traveling the world affordable so they can capitalize on their youth. Thank you Gary. I promise I will never stop nor quit.
Love this video, as a 23 year old CPA who just recently left his corporate job last week to pursue business, this has been on my consistently, awesome video
I'm not in my early twenties, I'm 28, but God damn do I feel like I have the spirit of a 20 year old. I think this video has made me decide to quit my corporate job in a nice city to move back to my small hometown, get a much easier job, and just start hustling at my dreams of becoming an entrepreneurial artist :)
Love to hear that. I’m turning 26 in a couple weeks and have certainly learned plenty of things I don’t want to do since I graduated 2 years ago... good luck to you! Ya gotta follow your passions
I’m 23 and this is the first year I became my own business owner and did my first $8,500 day Best decision I’ve ever made in my entire life was believing in myself
Holy shit, thank you Gary! My roommate and I just decided last month this was our last semester in college. I'm 22 and have two years left in college. My roommate is 21 and was headed towards grad school. We started our own business in December and decided to RISK. We just got a deal with a large, million dollar grossing brewery in NC and our website has been live maybe two weeks?! TAKE A CHANCE PEOPLE. YOUR DREAMS ARE POSSIBLE.
+Noordeen Abunamous We own a candle company in Boone, NC. Our website is brewcandle.co . We make beer inspired pint glass candles, made with all natural ingredients. I love it. I can't wait to make it my full time job.
Kennedy Washington got any advice for an accounting major? Going into junior year, trying to decide if I want to internship next summer or just take classes. Idk man.
Spent 4 years in college and it was the worst decision of my life. Here I am with a degree in a field I'm no longer interested in and not much for job prospects. This video helped me open up my eyes and realize how lucky i am tho
Same here. Studied something for 4 years only to realize in the last week of my study and internship that it wasn't what I wanted. My dad got ill and realized that I wanted to pursue something else. Trying to get into medicine now. But need to do more pre education for courses. Gonna give it a go. And if doesn't work. Then hey, at least I tried. Trying to get more serious with my photography and make a business out of it. It's gonna be difficult. But no one said it was easy.
Same, except I have wasted almost 7 years. Mostly for the sake of finishing the studies, cause quitting studying before the Master’s degree is almost unacceptable where I come from.
I'm 26 and it's been 4 years since I've graduated. I went the "safe" route for those first few years because I let my student loans hold me back. I wish I had heard this when I needed it most 4 years ago but now is better than never. With $4000 left in loans but nothing else to be proud of for the last couple of years, I'm taking those chances now to do what I want to do.
This is exactly what I needed to hear. I’m 22 and just graduated college and have no idea what I want to do. I don’t have any debt thankfully and I know I’m in a fantastic position compared to a lot of people but my biggest struggle is picking a direction. I don’t have one thing that I am passionate about and know I want to go after so it’s hard to come up with a plan
Starting to grind now. I'm 14 with a TH-cam channel with 20K subscribers and 2M+ views. I'm also just getting into graphic design, filmmaking and video editing. This is what I want to do for my entire life. I want anyone reading this to go and get it.
THANKS FOR THIS. I'm trying to build my brand and this positive environment and grind ethic is contagious. More needed all the best. Nothing but positive vibes to everyone out here hustling..
I'm 21, but I'm also married. At least my husband is working and tells me that I should do what I want and follow my dreams. Although I do feel guilty when he is working at his job and I just work part time. But I hope that I can build income streams for our family.
Wow! I am not married but I definitely find myself in a very similar situation... i understand the struggle of dreaming of being able to generate a bit more just because helping family is the dream so many people long for... Let me tell you something --> never give up on that desire. It is hard, but very much possible 💪🏻. I'm commenting because I actually found myself realizing that I needed to move quicker so that I could get to a point where I could actually help family and I found the most awesome fell-out-the-sky video about a month ago. Lol I dont wanna sound annoying, but this video I found really helped me and it sounds like it could help you as well. I'll drop it here since there's no way to dm on TH-cam 😂. Regardless of whether or not you think it could help you... Hey! Just expressing your thoughts here is really good progress Best of luck to you Here's the video link if you happen to be interested www.unfoldaffiliates.co/masterclass ✌🏻

Goddamn I'm one of those people graduating today, and this is why I fucking love your videos Gary... I'm moving to NYC in 2 months to follow my dreams and I couldn't be more scared and excited
First generation college graduate here. I just graduated business school in May 2021, currently age 22. I've had zero guidance and input from both of my parents in anything I do. I'm getting ready to take my real estate license exam along with pursuing music as my passion. Thanks Gary for helping me realize how lucky I am and how I can take risks and get the best out of life.
I graduated two days ago literally. I have passions, goals but my family and society want me to join this system and follow the rest of the world. But despite that I'm gonna apply your method Gary, right away, I promise !!
Let's freakin go! For the past 5 months I've started my journey with TH-cam, and my freelance graphic design business. I graduated 2 years ago from college with a massive amount of debt. Gary, you're right. The loans and massive payments will be there REGARDLESS if you chase after your dream or not. I'm chasing after my dreams and taking risk because these ARE my grinding years! Let's make it happen.
Gary. I'm a fan of your success. I tried to do the entrepreneurial thing at a young age, just a few years out of university. What I learned is that I needed more real world experience to drastically increase my chances of being a successful entrepreneur (i've seen many people fail, a lot of people). I honestly feel that someone out of college should go work for a company to get the necessary skill set that they need, regardless of how low the salary may be; this allows for the future-preneur to get real world experience on some one else's dime and from professionals in the field. When the entrepreneur starts his/her venture, they will actually know what they are doing and have a better chance at success. I started my first business venture with the wrong skill set and had to learn new skills which was a huge mistake as this wasted my time. Another point, get the specific skills set that you need for your business venture through a job before running off on your own. I feel that going directly into a business venture without the necessary experience not only wastes money, but wastes the more valuable thing of all TIME. Although, the experience of being an entrepreneur is way more valuable than being an employee that's forsure. Those are my thoughts, what do you think?
happygolucky. What many fans don't realize is that by age 8-10 Gary knew exactly what he was going to do for the rest of his life. he also knew what his skillset was. If you have this level of self-awareness at that young age go for it, go all in. If you haven't got self-awareness yet, find it FIRST!!! because once you find your place in the world, you can then deploy all the hard work and patience and it will pay off big time. I know that I am a late bloomer, I will win, but it took me a long time to get to a decent level of self awareness. Gary is the last internet Guru I will need to follow, haha. long journey to get here tho.
Gary made me feel like I have nothing to worry about as a 22 yr old. I just have to adopt the right mindset and realize I could do whatever I set my mind to! Thanks Gary!
I needed this.... I'm about to start something I've always wanted to for as long as I can remember...... I've finally gotten the courage I needed... wish me luck.... I really feel at peace about it
Why the heck wasn't this video link attached with my degree? The only thing that frustrates me is not seeing this sooner, this message is the truth #FollowIt
Just graduated this week. Was squandering all over for job interviews. Why? Just to pay off a little debt, when I could be pushing my art freelance career. It took this entire week to finally realize that this summer's that 'make it or break it' moment. If I don't start now, I'll regret it forever when I'm stuck with a 9-5 job because I wanted to play it safe in marketing when I was 22. Thanks again for making this terrific video, Gary.
I can related man... I have family expectations which are pulling me down specialy when i gave up on two job opportunity just coz I wanted to work for a startup... All the best mate...
thank You I have been trying to tell my parents this shit, they don't want to listen. I have been doing random stuff for 2 years now to figure out what I'm good at I feel like I'm almost there. Thank you for confirming.
Hello, I am a 25-year-old young man living in Korea. After watching this video, I thought a lot about it. It gave me a lot of motivation. Thank you very much. I will try my best to secure my youth for my life. Please cheer for me. I will do my best to be a valuable life, and I will try my best to live a life that is more valuable than anyone else. I will never give up. I will use my youth and energy to my heart's content. Thank you. And I support you.
He's right kids. Ditch the "Once I..." Mentality and go for it. It's much harder at 38 married with a daughter to jump ship and go for it! Though I'm still gonna try!

Listen to this guy! I'm 31 with a wife and kid now. I still have a lot of chances left, still young, but I tell you, it just gets harder and harder. It's so easy to piss away your time, work hard while you can!
I graduated with a science degree...started a business right after graduating and my parents are Soo disappointed lol I showed my parents this video and they said Gary has no idea what he's talking about 😂 my parents believe school is the only way and I have to stop listening to them!

I grew up in a very bad environment and spent my teenage years being a worthless thug, but I realised I wanted to do something more with my life so I did the swedish version of SAT. I did it well enough to get into a nice university and education (master of science in industrial engineering and management), but it was hard seeing as I never had studied seriously before and had to learn the high school stuff as well as the things on our curriculum. I failed the first year "epically", but I retook all classes and got through it. My grades were horrible at first, but I will graduate next month with really good grades; a real struggle I might add.
I was a late bloomer though. When all the 24 year olds started to leave the university, I entered it. It took time to mentally get from being a low-life who more or less ignored life and whatever it entails to become someone who enjoys life, wants to learn and grow and, instead of wasting time, gets things done. I'm 30 now and behind most of my kin in that sense, but I'm working part time just to get enough money for rent and food so I can spend as much time as possible to grow my business and doing what I want to do.
I'm confident that it's not too late; that I will succeed and do what I want to do. My "five year window" is just beginning even if I'm "too old" for some people.

Watched this in May 2017 when I graduated uni. It gave me the drive I needed. Since graduating, I worked my way up and now make $170k. But I hate my job (software engineer) and I plan to make a career switch when I’m 26. Every time I decide to do something big and daring, I rewatch this. Gary, I hope you realize how thankful I am for seeing this when I was young
same after getting an engineer degree i dont see my self doing this after 10 years.
@@Tokyo_Drift-k3u and i am here to see what to do after i graduate from software engineering in next june...
why do you hate being a software engineer? thats the field im considering on doing and would like to know your experience and thoughts on it
Omg exactly the same story. I just took a job that I don't like because I wanted to be independent. Now I'm quitting without any idea of what I'm going to do next. It's scary but it's also liberating. I do get carried with the thought that my friends are earning better money or having a better life, but then I realize that's not what I want.
Well... U missed the point
At 21 years old, I decided to not follow my classmates who were straight trying to find a job. I had a strong desire for traveling and decided to leave France to go one year hitchhiking in NewZealand and meeting tones of people’s from everywhere in the world. In just 2 years (I’m 23 now) it’s insane how much I feel I changed and grow. Not just that traveling opened my mind, it help me to know myself ! And learn English, and get experience in other industry, and discovering meditation, and learning so much things through people and books, and gave me the drive to start my business in video. Today, just 2 years after, I’m in Australia, willing to travel over the world now for at least the next 5 years. At the time I’m saving money working in my industry, video and social media, enjoying my hobby which has been to create a TH-cam channel about my travel, and just living the dream. Thanks Gary for saying this to everyone, I really believe that following what drive you is the key for fulfilment, but more than that, you will learn that when you believe hard in something, and that everyday you try even to do a little things in that way to achieve your goal, you always get something from it. Not that you will for sure get what exactly you want, but you will embrace a journey that will make you proud of yourself and gives you hips of opportunities to discover yourself. I wish you a good day everyone, and hope that this kind of videos can be life changing for you ❤️
good to hear that! Have fun in Australia mate!
How do you get the money to travel ?

I was lucky enough to watch this video 6 years ago as I was graduating at 23. The message was always in the back of my head since then. I moved countries, completed my studies, worked at different companies, gained an incredible amount of experience, became a different person, and still haven't forgotten this video, still grinding with hunger. Thanks man for these life changing 5 minutes.
Happy for u bro! Hope I will be able to do the same
Many people make the mistake of comparing themselves to others in terms of age, and thinking, "Ah, I'm good, I'm only 16/18/20 now, I still have time", and go back to playing that video game, or partying, or whatever else falls under #yolo.
If you're reading this - don't procrastinate. I quit the office job I hated a few months ago, never looked back. All that "office job" time I now dedicate to TH-cam (it's a Russian channel, so I'm not self-advertising).
Amazing video.
I am 18 and I've dropped out of university (one semester in ahaha..) to pursue my passion in music. I know exactly what I want to do and won't stop until I get there. I have been grinding for the past month and have seen nothing but results so no way I am stopping now. btw, if anyone needs music for vlogs/videos feel free to use some of mine :)

Hey I'm 22! This year I started a TH-cam channel I actually like, I started to write articles on medium and I'm finally trying to sell some on my smaller paintings online. Because of my chronic illness I will never be able to gring 18 hours a day, but I will give my best effort to making my dreams come true and having fun doing it. Thanks for the advice, I will reach out to a media team and try to get an internship and learn from them.

i just feel like cleaning my room after watching this video
lmao
Nice work, bucko
Roughly speaking
Lol
I’m 22, just graduated from the college. I’ve been watching this same video again and again to sync in with the advice. Now when I’m actually graduated I can really relate, how hard is the world outside, forcing us to live the laterally -structured life and goals. When we have our passion and dreams set up against the dogma of structured ones. And Here I’ve decided to go completely uncertain about the terms of life following my passion. Trying hard to be process oriented and being happy with the moment itself. Doing what I love. Thank you Gary for such life changing advice 🙌🏻🙌🏻
What are u doing
I'm 24 and I just lost my dream job about 2 weeks ago. I just stumbled on this video again and I can't even begin to explain how encouraging and insightful and motivating this is right now, beyond grateful for it :)
sorry if this is personal but could i ask how did you lose the job? I am 18 and worried about future job security, and have no experience in the 'real world'
@@lavaboy1565 well i had just been hired in january at a start up and then in march covid hit and the quarantine dramatically changed how the company operated and they weren't sure if there was going to be enough work for me so I was laid off. I was unemployed for a couple months trying to find a new job but then in like July I texted them just to catch up and they were actually back in a place where they could hire me again so I got my job back and I've been working there full time since! :)
I had absolutely no real world experience at 18 and only got my first job at 19 and it was at a chickfila haha, so I feel that, definitely is terrifying attempting to enter the workforce and build a career but the more experience you get the easier it gets to handle it, just try things and find people to help you figure it out. never be afraid to reach out and ask for help :)
@@brebytheway that’s awesome. Im 22 and about to graduate this May with a degree in finance. I know I want to become a financial advisor, but I haven’t had an internship. COVID hit when I became a senior, so there was a lot of uncertainty. I have a very good GPA, and I have passed an unlicensed finance exam that separates me from most applicants. However, I just feel intimidated as I’m entering a new chapter. I guess my question is, will not having an internship lose my chances of getting an entry job?
Did you go to college? What’s your job now?
@@MarioAguilera1957 sorry just saw this reply, how are things going now? :)
I'm 19, not going to college nor do I want to, literally the day after high school I started a door to door sales job, worked 15 hours a day... Did this for about a month. After that month, got another sales job going b2b selling credit card processing machines, did that for about a month. After this, got another sales job selling cable tv out of huge retail stores.Through this 3-4 month period, fresh out of high school, gained valuable hustler experience ... developing the hustle, the mindset I needed to pursue my dreams, developing empathy to understand how to talk w/ & to people, etc. About 3 months ago, I quit all jobs (learned all I needed to learn) started my own thing (creative(s) marketing)... From the jump, it wasn't easy... Now, with God, the mindset... So much is happening, RAPIDLY, in the span of 6-10 months. AND THIS ISN'T EVEN THE BEGINNING... The resources/knowledge I'm now being exposed to, the work ethic I'm developing... Man... Thanks God & thanks Gary 😂
Gary, the year you made this video I was 22 years old. I'm now 26, and have a delivery business. This video has made all the difference. Thank you for giving me the courage to take the leap and also move with urgency. I'm gonna take your advice and grind harder than ever while I still have youth and time.
I graduated college just last year. I am 29 now. It took me 10 long years to finish college because I basically didnt like the degree my mother wanted me to take in college so I really had a hard time finishing it. Now, I kinda have an idea on what I really want to do and explore ever since. But it really is scary taking that huge leap of faith, to believe in what I am yet to do and achieve. I do hope it's not yet too late to start this journey. I do hope I succeed.

Or, learn from home and start executing an online business now.

What is your dream?
Best video I've seen from you... "Go and travel and learn" it was like you were validating everything I am currently doing while all the others sit back hate and judge. I dropped out of college at 18 years old so I could pursue my dream: TRAVEL THE WORLD. I've been traveling consistently for over 3 years now. I'm learning so much and collecting so many experiences. Sure I've been homeless and slept in train stations, slept on floors in many countries, ate at fast food joints because of the little money I had. Even though it was a struggle... I fuckin' loved every bit of it. Now I'm building the business of my dreams to help others make traveling the world affordable so they can capitalize on their youth. Thank you Gary. I promise I will never stop nor quit.

Kennedy Washington got any advice for an accounting major? Going into junior year, trying to decide if I want to internship next summer or just take classes. Idk man.
Spent 4 years in college and it was the worst decision of my life. Here I am with a degree in a field I'm no longer interested in and not much for job prospects. This video helped me open up my eyes and realize how lucky i am tho
Can I ask what field
same problem
Same here. Studied something for 4 years only to realize in the last week of my study and internship that it wasn't what I wanted. My dad got ill and realized that I wanted to pursue something else. Trying to get into medicine now. But need to do more pre education for courses. Gonna give it a go. And if doesn't work. Then hey, at least I tried. Trying to get more serious with my photography and make a business out of it. It's gonna be difficult. But no one said it was easy.
Synchronizer Be confident and never give up, you got this bro !
Same, except I have wasted almost 7 years. Mostly for the sake of finishing the studies, cause quitting studying before the Master’s degree is almost unacceptable where I come from.
I'm 26 and it's been 4 years since I've graduated. I went the "safe" route for those first few years because I let my student loans hold me back. I wish I had heard this when I needed it most 4 years ago but now is better than never. With $4000 left in loans but nothing else to be proud of for the last couple of years, I'm taking those chances now to do what I want to do.
This is exactly what I needed to hear. I’m 22 and just graduated college and have no idea what I want to do. I don’t have any debt thankfully and I know I’m in a fantastic position compared to a lot of people but my biggest struggle is picking a direction. I don’t have one thing that I am passionate about and know I want to go after so it’s hard to come up with a plan

I'm 21, but I'm also married. At least my husband is working and tells me that I should do what I want and follow my dreams. Although I do feel guilty when he is working at his job and I just work part time. But I hope that I can build income streams for our family.
I think you guys have to build passive income so that you can chase your dreams without worry.
Wow! I am not married but I definitely find myself in a very similar situation... i understand the struggle of dreaming of being able to generate a bit more just because helping family is the dream so many people long for...
Let me tell you something --> never give up on that desire. It is hard, but very much possible 💪🏻.
I'm commenting because I actually found myself realizing that I needed to move quicker so that I could get to a point where I could actually help family and I found the most awesome fell-out-the-sky video about a month ago.
Lol I dont wanna sound annoying, but this video I found really helped me and it sounds like it could help you as well.
I'll drop it here since there's no way to dm on TH-cam 😂.

First generation college graduate here. I just graduated business school in May 2021, currently age 22. I've had zero guidance and input from both of my parents in anything I do. I'm getting ready to take my real estate license exam along with pursuing music as my passion. Thanks Gary for helping me realize how lucky I am and how I can take risks and get the best out of life.
I graduated two days ago literally. I have passions, goals but my family and society want me to join this system and follow the rest of the world. But despite that I'm gonna apply your method Gary, right away, I promise !!
Let's freakin go! For the past 5 months I've started my journey with TH-cam, and my freelance graphic design business. I graduated 2 years ago from college with a massive amount of debt. Gary, you're right. The loans and massive payments will be there REGARDLESS if you chase after your dream or not. I'm chasing after my dreams and taking risk because these ARE my grinding years! Let's make it happen.
Gary. I'm a fan of your success. I tried to do the entrepreneurial thing at a young age, just a few years out of university.
What I learned is that I needed more real world experience to drastically increase my chances of being a successful entrepreneur (i've seen many people fail, a lot of people). I honestly feel that someone out of college should go work for a company to get the necessary skill set that they need, regardless of how low the salary may be; this allows for the future-preneur to get real world experience on some one else's dime and from professionals in the field. When the entrepreneur starts his/her venture, they will actually know what they are doing and have a better chance at success.
I started my first business venture with the wrong skill set and had to learn new skills which was a huge mistake as this wasted my time. Another point, get the specific skills set that you need for your business venture through a job before running off on your own.
I feel that going directly into a business venture without the necessary experience not only wastes money, but wastes the more valuable thing of all TIME. Although, the experience of being an entrepreneur is way more valuable than being an employee that's forsure.
Those are my thoughts, what do you think?
happygolucky. What many fans don't realize is that by age 8-10 Gary knew exactly what he was going to do for the rest of his life. he also knew what his skillset was.
If you have this level of self-awareness at that young age go for it, go all in. If you haven't got self-awareness yet, find it FIRST!!! because once you find your place in the world, you can then deploy all the hard work and patience and it will pay off big time.
I know that I am a late bloomer, I will win, but it took me a long time to get to a decent level of self awareness.
Gary is the last internet Guru I will need to follow, haha. long journey to get here tho.
Dylan Graham how to find what to do and what are my passions to work upon?
Gary made me feel like I have nothing to worry about as a 22 yr old. I just have to adopt the right mindset and realize I could do whatever I set my mind to! Thanks Gary!

Yikes a kid following her mothers foot steps

This video pushed me to go for my dreams. Just turned 23, and can already see an opening for it. Thank you Gary, hope to meet you one day!
i graduated 3 weeks ago and have been (dramatically) feeling like i was drowning both leading up to it and ever since, this video is a godsend
Watched this at the end of my freshman year. Now here we are, 22, graduating in 2 weeks and pumped for the next 5 years!!
Christian Tango-an starting college this fall, how hard is it? Lol
Why the heck wasn't this video link attached with my degree? The only thing that frustrates me is not seeing this sooner, this message is the truth #FollowIt
Love you Gary!

+Skyla Shanell im 25 it was what i needed to hear
Just graduated this week. Was squandering all over for job interviews. Why? Just to pay off a little debt, when I could be pushing my art freelance career. It took this entire week to finally realize that this summer's that 'make it or break it' moment. If I don't start now, I'll regret it forever when I'm stuck with a 9-5 job because I wanted to play it safe in marketing when I was 22. Thanks again for making this terrific video, Gary.
I can related man... I have family expectations which are pulling me down specialy when i gave up on two job opportunity just coz I wanted to work for a startup... All the best mate...
This video showed up to me as an pre-roll ad in May 2017. I'm so grateful for all that has come after.
thank You I have been trying to tell my parents this shit, they don't want to listen. I have been doing random stuff for 2 years now to figure out what I'm good at I feel like I'm almost there. Thank you for confirming.
I’m 20 and graduating college and I needed this

You fucking go and get 'em
I wish you luck on your journey!
Hello, I am a 25-year-old young man living in Korea. After watching this video, I thought a lot about it. It gave me a lot of motivation. Thank you very much. I will try my best to secure my youth for my life. Please cheer for me. I will do my best to be a valuable life, and I will try my best to live a life that is more valuable than anyone else. I will never give up. I will use my youth and energy to my heart's content. Thank you. And I support you.
Gary.. you are like a father I never had.
+Sauron The Sausage Feeling exactly the same type of way!
He's right kids. Ditch the "Once I..." Mentality and go for it. It's much harder at 38 married with a daughter to jump ship and go for it! Though I'm still gonna try!
Graduated in lockdown, and tbh Idk what exactly I wanna do, but I love training in parkour, martial arts and calisthenics, and I've been training at them hard lately
hope you can find what you really love
Wait.. so you graduated with a 4 years for absoutely nothing? What did u major
assassin Highschool
People do TH-cam videos in this kind of stuff maybe you should try that.
🙌
It amazes me time and time again how a person who is in constant action manages to produce videos that will help people mentally, successfully Gray
I'm 21& totally freaked out and scared of how to figure out things....but 5yrs frm now I'm gonna be the best version of myself!!!!
From the past couple of days I was messed up, I'm a college student from India, after watching this right now, I just put some weights off my shoulders.
Thanks for making this video, you're awesome.
Damn this is the ice cold truth. I wish I was listening to this 5 years ago.
17 years old listening to you right now, very much appreciated.
