Wow the youth of today is so lucky to have this content (and words of affirmation for some) accessible and free. Will be referencing this video anytime someone tries to shove their pencil pushing job on me while I’m earning less for now but creating and building for a better tomorrow. Thank you Garry Tan!
I'm feeling like the happiest person in the world since I got to know and also Invested started investing my bitcoins with Mr Gary's mining pool, he's really been helping me take care of myself and my kids.
One of the main obstacles to my success has been dogma. Like Steve Jobs said, “Don’t live with the results of other people’s thinking.” It’s something I have had to fight constantly for by surrounding myself with like minded entrepreneurs. This channel is incredible, I can feel the Valley vibes already :).
2:11-3:28 is the biggest gem of the whole video, once you understand that creating value (building) is far better than signaling value (credentials) opportunities are limitless. It's just a matter of getting started, no matter how small
Garry, this might go unnoticed , but I really got shivers and got hooked at 9:25 where you look at the audience, have a more direct and intense tone which makes it so great because it feels sincere. Guessing this is the sort of feedback a creator wants to get.
I am Frontend Web Developer . I have been learning it for about 7 months and I have been applying for frontend jobs for a while now but I haven't been lucky. Taking Garry's advice I will continue learning and now I'll move on to the backend to become a full stack. Thanks for your advice Garry.
Hi Gary, we met during ASES Summit '17 at Stanford and at the end of the summit, your quote was the biggest learning for me "Either you're learning or earning, if both, that's the best, if neither, you need to move to another opportunity"!! Glad to see this learning and knowledge is being democratized and a lot of youth are benefitting from your insights :)
2 years ago this advice revalidated what I always wanted and changed my life... for 8 years I was watching, watching, watching and afraid to leave my coporate career... I quit, start from scratch to learn code, asked my friends to join, now we are building company, we have lunched, and lunched again... and moving towards my goals one step at the time... Thank you garry for this ❤❤❤❤
Garry, I cannot tell you how happy I feel when I listen to your videos. Quite a value addition for listeners. I love how you breakdown concepts into good structures
Learning about yourself - first question in the row should be: who/what am I? Know thyself. Not in ego sense, but in being/essence sense. 🌸 All other questions are spot on!
I feel so grateful to have access to these great content from successful founders like Garry Tan, Justin Kan every week. All the best to you @Garry Tan.
I happened to have a reflection about what you mean you love your work. True love is "tested" whether you can endure long hours but also willing to find time to get back on it naturally when difficulties happen especially when no one seems to have passion like you do. "Can you spend the 10,000 hours to become great?" is a good test indeed.
As somebody who genuinely loves learning and went down a finance/economics/investing rabbit hole last year and can't stop, this is channel is absolutely amazing! Keep it up :)
This reminds me of what Steve Jobs shared, “ Always hungry, always foolish” and to have that drive/obsession on what one believes for themselves, not moved by noises that don’t add values. Great content! 🙏🏽
Right! What a wonderful place would it be if people actually do what they're passionate about. What would you have done if you've seen this video before?
@@garrytan9352 I’ve gotta crazy idea I’ve been working on for 5 years, if you believe someone can build a revolutionary company- group without having spending single cent, Wanna here more?
One of my favorite vids yet. Sounds like I left my first startup a bit too late, but I did learn a LOT for most of it. Without that learning (and suffering) I don't think I would have been kicked in the butt the same way to start my own business that actually worked. You live, you learn!!
Garry first of all super quality content, inspiring! I'd also like to add on the "Neither learning, nor earning" part, can happen to many founders/entrepreneurs too! (myself included). Especially when yes, your startup has an existing customer base, however growth is either slow or limited. Founders often can find themselves buried in non-stop routine work (customer service/ accounting/ marketing/ R&D, etc.) and often having a small team, you're stuck in the loop of not having time to learn better methods, as well as limited income growth.
This is essential advice not just for people in their jobs, but for entrepreneurs as well. I think about the years NASA existed before their first successful launch. It's nearly impossible to tackle a problem while anticipating everything before going in. It takes a necessary amount of assessment, evaluation and reflection to solve life's hardest challenges. Anything worth doing is hard!
What I appreciated most about this video is the underlying theme of initiative, which translates into being bold enough to start learning and prioritize it over simply earning-being brave enough to make those cold calls and reach out to strangers. Although it's scary, I've seen the most success when I've acted in such a manner, and it's a quality of some of the most successful people I know. Thanks for a great video.
All the theories on happiness you shared are practically correct but not from first principle. The reason happiness comes from "discipline" is because happiness is merely the opposite emotion to frustration and sadness (which you will inevitably experience forcing yourself to learn something). Happiness only exists after you've done something difficult because it is not an absolute emotion but a relative one: you're happy for a period of time because you were frustrated for a period of time and vise versa. On a macro scale, it's always cycles of trying and trying (frustrated) -> succeeding (happy) -> feeling empty -> finding a new challenge to get frustrated about all over again. This also applies to the concept of "living" and "working". the concept of "living" only exists relative to "working". And in general, people associate working to be the generally frustrating experience and living to be the emotions opposite to frustration. The more frustrating it is at work, the more one would cherish "living" and resent "working". On the contrary, if you "love your work" you treat it more like living, and you blur the lines between living and working because to you, working is part of living. In the end, all this is saying is that living comfortably gives the same emotional sum as living a challenging one but has a much smaller amplitude (less ups and downs). However, the ultimate difference is that living a comfortable life results in less net change exerted onto the world. And remember, emotions don't stay, they will always balance with its relative emotion. But the changes you make to the world does. So always choose a challenging life, not a comfortable one. And always remember: creating frustration for yourself is the exact same thing as creating happiness, vise versa.
I really needed to watch this video. I spent the past 4 years learning and building up some extremely valuable skills. Now I feel ready to make the leap and join something early stage and build it from 0 to 1. As someone going through the process of finding my next adventure, I find this series of videos extremely valuable and thought provoking. Thank you Garry!

Hi Garry, may God Bless you for all these videos, Your content, production quality, the script, your camera, colour correction, the list won't end. I am on my own personal journey about being at a YC backed startup / TH-camr and your videos are always a boost of eneergy and inspiration for me! Take care man
Sir , I could not believe this content is for free. Sometimes there are some videos that really "impact". This is probably one of them. Thanks Garry , have a great week ahead.
Thanks Garry, I have a 100+ k job in a big corporation and it's exactly how've described it: hamster wheel. Have you tried setting up your own start-up while raising kids? I did, and I can tell you this is another level as compared to what you're describing (unless you want to "abandon" your children and not get involved at all). In the end it's a trade-off: safety of my family vs. building your own future as a company owner.
Thank you so much Garry for sharing your experience and wisdom. I stumbled upon your channel by accident and it's made my week. Needless to say I took notes as you spoke and got an inspiration to start up something. Thanks for being that catalyst.
I agree 100%. As we move into the future I would also like to add you can either add to the algorithm/create value or be a consumer. Keep moving forward and give 100% of your soul to build and earn in this life to something you have a deep desire for. Remember nobody has life figured out, but what they do have is years of wisdom and personal experience that can help you along your journey. Peace and much love yal
When you're young and first starting out, you can learn from any job even if it's considered "bs". There are still a lot of smart people to learn and teach you about any industry. It's also ok for people to work average, everyday jobs that still contribute to society and pay the bills to support their family and lifestyle. That being said, most jobs can be mastered within 2-3 years in my opinion and learning new things may require a job or career change.
Great life and business experiences! I wish I had seen this video 20 years ago. Many of the experiences you shared I can absolutely relate with except I was missing the earn + learn combination. Thanks for the great stories and insights!
Garry, your content just resonates with me immensely, you convey information that I wish I had from people in my life. Although, I believe you need nothing outside of yourself to become successful, as long as you align yourself, the information, the lessons they will come to you. Garry, you don't know this yet but you are basically my CEO coach right now, and you are apart of my journey. Thank you!
Absolutely on point, as always Garry.. Your content is so relevant for most of us..In life's rat race where a lot of our lives are on autopilot, your thought provoking perspectives on steps to live life with a purpose are absolute gold dust.. Kudos man, keep up the amazing work 👍
11:58 >If you are not learning, yout don't have a way to earn equity or even a good salary AND ESPECIALLY IF IT'S NOT FUN OR MEANINGFUL FOR YOU, you gotta quit. This just gave me a huge relief that I left my previous job.
Good morning from Asturias (Spain). We just found you a couple a weeks ago looking for financial independence...and we found you. Great videos and great spich... we are learning a lot from you. Thank you.
Funny thing is we have an annual Holiday celebration for all of my students (Govcon Giants) that we call, Earn or Learn. We just had this event last Tuesday. It is always a great time. I love hearing all the feedback for how they did this year.
I've put a ton of important quotes and lessons on my whole sheet pad just straight out from this video and I have to say thank you for the wisdom that you're bringing! You're shedding the light for what seems to be the future of companies where they'll start from scratch as well. I am an aspiring startup founder too though I'm still a teen haha and knowing that it won't be easy, but your content brings so much impact to where I want to delegate my future moves. Thank you, Garry!
fro knows photo in the house! You are the very first photographer i learned photography with through youtube. first video i watched was the Hermit the frog one years back!
I am a musician for 20years. I pressure myself when thinking about learning new things i wont be as good as a my musician side....i am struggling with this. Big time. Thank you for this video.
I love the gradebook software thing. My first programs were to help my FFA advisor manage our fruit-sale fundraisers and for us to practice test-based competitions. Now I'm a Software Engineer at Amazon looking to start a company of my own.
I'm trapped earning money....I know it and its hard to break the cycle. I'm not learning at my job either, but I make good $$$. I'm not truly happy. I'm trying some other things that I really enjoy and looking for ways to earn. Glad I found your channel bro. Appreciate your content!! :)
TH-cam algorithm recommended your video to me abs I am so happy. I am watching all your videos with my daughter who is an aspiring engineer. While she has not decided her engineering stream yet, she is getting clarity with such videos. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
Thank you, Garry! I have been in a sad mood about my position for a long time. Previously I thought I lost interest in tech or felt too tired to be happy. I have tried all possible solutions I can think of to change that. Your video is a light for me to understand what I really like and want to do in the future. I LIKE CODING and I am just too tired of not learning!
I can see both a sense gratification and fulfillment in the things you speak of. While you are learning and earning, you are also giving an unbelievable amount of value per your experience. I am only now beginning to open up my mind and grasp the potential of these concepts. I appreciate it and I know many others do as well. Thank you, Garry!!!
It’s scary to quit the main job and really put the whole spotlight on the previous side hustle labor of love, especially in medicine. But in another way, it’s scary not to... Even in a field that is set up to oppose change, your points still apply!
Amazing content. As a college student, where it seems like everyone around me wants to get a finance job and live a comfortable life, the hedonic treadmill theory really resonates.
Yes, have to learn all the time every year - especially, the way the world is trending with technology and how Internet marketing keeps changing. What you learn today will help you in the future, for sure, even if you don't currently see how it fits into the future puzzle... this is especially true w/ Internet marketing. Sometimes the learning process involves a lot of failures but the more failures you accrue over time - the closer you get to your ultimate goals. It can be a long, challenging process/path. Love the content. 👍
Thanks for the video, I just start started learning visual programming some weeks back and I'm close to building something that might be of value with some hard work. Yes, learning always enriches one.
Garry, I want to express how grateful I am to get these content through this beautiful platform. You are 15 years ahead of me in life and have walked through the very opportunities I call my goals today. Thank You for such genuine educative videos at a time where we are drowned by flashy contents of fake gurus. Keep them Coming. Hopefully, one day, one fine day, we get to meet in person.
I'm a PLC programmer. Been bugging the EE & MachE boys to teach me the skills to build rigs. I used update docs for a small manufactoring company while I was in college. I got paid minimum wage. Best thing I ever did was bug the EE guy to teach me how to program PLCs. We used to elope a lot. He'd take me out to the factory floor and teach me as much as he can. Long story short, don't be afraid to bug people in your workplace. Ask you manager how the business is going, what the targets are and how he plans to meet them, etc.
Thank you Garry for these awesome educational and motivational videos. My son is a coder and still in elementary. He watches your videos every time for inspiration :)
superb video! I can relate to all of that. Just one personal addition: in fact, I guess you can learn something while participating in a dodgy startup (which happened to me): you learn how not to do it, which can be super valuable.
Earning a lot of money with ''no credentials'' only works in the US and a few other countries. Not in Europe - in my country and a lot others you actually NEED credentials, official diplomas/certifications. This is required by law in order to get hired or become a freelancer in ANY area of activity, not only in web/app development. It doesn't matter how good you are if you don't have the required credentials - no employer would risk breaking the law by hiring you. Let me give you another example - if I suddenly get thousands of subscribers on my TH-cam channel and start montizing my content, I also have to earn some kind of credential in order to legally register as a freelancer. It may sound absurd but that's the way it is.

“You are not busy being born, you are busy dying”. The day we stop learning is the day we died, we must study and reinvent ourselves relentlessly.
Learning about yourself - first question in the row should be: who/what am I? Know thyself. Not in ego sense, but in being/essence sense. 🌸 All other questions are spot on!
Oh that is a good point. Meditation is wonderful for “noticing yourself”
"Be fanatical enough to keep going." Do what you're passionate about, makes life better long term.
Awesome video, Garry!
While learning < earning:

Everyone in the world should see this video. Profound, wise, and concise. Darn good work Garry!
Thank you! Very kind of you to say.
Super obsessed with your channel Garry! You’re a legend! Much love and God bless 🙏🏼

Great life and business experiences! I wish I had seen this video 20 years ago. Many of the experiences you shared I can absolutely relate with except I was missing the earn + learn combination.
Thanks for the great stories and insights!
It's really a shame to find your youtube channel late in the game, but still thankful! Thank you for being awesome
Garry, your content just resonates with me immensely, you convey information that I wish I had from people in my life. Although, I believe you need nothing outside of yourself to become successful, as long as you align yourself, the information, the lessons they will come to you. Garry, you don't know this yet but you are basically my CEO coach right now, and you are apart of my journey. Thank you!
Your work makes you stand apart. Thanks for sharing ❤️🙏🙏
Absolutely on point, as always Garry.. Your content is so relevant for most of us..In life's rat race where a lot of our lives are on autopilot, your thought provoking perspectives on steps to live life with a purpose are absolute gold dust.. Kudos man, keep up the amazing work 👍
Gary, I love authenticity you demonstrate. Thanks for investing your time in creating highly valuable videos.

>If you are not learning, yout don't have a way to earn equity or even a good salary AND ESPECIALLY IF IT'S NOT FUN OR MEANINGFUL FOR YOU, you gotta quit.
This just gave me a huge relief that I left my previous job.

Funny thing is we have an annual Holiday celebration for all of my students (Govcon Giants) that we call, Earn or Learn. We just had this event last Tuesday. It is always a great time. I love hearing all the feedback for how they did this year.
I've put a ton of important quotes and lessons on my whole sheet pad just straight out from this video and I have to say thank you for the wisdom that you're bringing! You're shedding the light for what seems to be the future of companies where they'll start from scratch as well. I am an aspiring startup founder too though I'm still a teen haha and knowing that it won't be easy, but your content brings so much impact to where I want to delegate my future moves. Thank you, Garry!

Another fantastic video!!!!
fro knows photo in the house! You are the very first photographer i learned photography with through youtube. first video i watched was the Hermit the frog one years back!
I am a musician for 20years. I pressure myself when thinking about learning new things i wont be as good as a my musician side....i am struggling with this. Big time. Thank you for this video.
I love his content, and the heart behind it. He’s brilliant, humble, generous and kind hearted. I found this piece inspiring and informative.
I love the gradebook software thing. My first programs were to help my FFA advisor manage our fruit-sale fundraisers and for us to practice test-based competitions. Now I'm a Software Engineer at Amazon looking to start a company of my own.
I'm trapped earning money....I know it and its hard to break the cycle. I'm not learning at my job either, but I make good $$$. I'm not truly happy. I'm trying some other things that I really enjoy and looking for ways to earn. Glad I found your channel bro. Appreciate your content!! :)
Amazing content and production quality as always.
Great wake up call to those who are just running on a treadmill to nowhere!
TH-cam algorithm recommended your video to me abs I am so happy. I am watching all your videos with my daughter who is an aspiring engineer. While she has not decided her engineering stream yet, she is getting clarity with such videos. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
Thank you, Garry! I have been in a sad mood about my position for a long time. Previously I thought I lost interest in tech or felt too tired to be happy. I have tried all possible solutions I can think of to change that. Your video is a light for me to understand what I really like and want to do in the future. I LIKE CODING and I am just too tired of not learning!
I can see both a sense gratification and fulfillment in the things you speak of. While you are learning and earning, you are also giving an unbelievable amount of value per your experience. I am only now beginning to open up my mind and grasp the potential of these concepts. I appreciate it and I know many others do as well. Thank you, Garry!!!
This channel is a goldmine. Thanks for all the insight you've shared on this video and others.
Thank you for reminding the most treasure thing we have is time and don’t wast it for anything which we didn’t learn or earn. Thanks!
Garry Tan - you're an absolute legend
It’s scary to quit the main job and really put the whole spotlight on the previous side hustle labor of love, especially in medicine. But in another way, it’s scary not to...
Even in a field that is set up to oppose change, your points still apply!

Amazing content. As a college student, where it seems like everyone around me wants to get a finance job and live a comfortable life, the hedonic treadmill theory really resonates.
This channel is definitely slept on.
Yes, have to learn all the time every year - especially, the way the world is trending with technology and how Internet marketing keeps changing. What you learn today will help you in the future, for sure, even if you don't currently see how it fits into the future puzzle... this is especially true w/ Internet marketing. Sometimes the learning process involves a lot of failures but the more failures you accrue over time - the closer you get to your ultimate goals. It can be a long, challenging process/path. Love the content. 👍
Thanks for the video, I just start started learning visual programming some weeks back and I'm close to building something that might be of value with some hard work. Yes, learning always enriches one.
Garry, I want to express how grateful I am to get these content through this beautiful platform. You are 15 years ahead of me in life and have walked through the very opportunities I call my goals today. Thank You for such genuine educative videos at a time where we are drowned by flashy contents of fake gurus. Keep them Coming. Hopefully, one day, one fine day, we get to meet in person.
Alert: the above reply was written by a scammer who is trying to impoersonate Garry Tan. Please don't fall for it!
Send a customer to a founder and they will always take your email. So true.
I'm a PLC programmer. Been bugging the EE & MachE boys to teach me the skills to build rigs.
I used update docs for a small manufactoring company while I was in college. I got paid minimum wage. Best thing I ever did was bug the EE guy to teach me how to program PLCs. We used to elope a lot. He'd take me out to the factory floor and teach me as much as he can.
Long story short, don't be afraid to bug people in your workplace. Ask you manager how the business is going, what the targets are and how he plans to meet them, etc.
Garry you are the mentor I didn't have in college, I love you.
Thanks for watching

superb video! I can relate to all of that. Just one personal addition: in fact, I guess you can learn something while participating in a dodgy startup (which happened to me): you learn how not to do it, which can be super valuable.
Earning a lot of money with ''no credentials'' only works in the US and a few other countries. Not in Europe - in my country and a lot others you actually NEED credentials, official diplomas/certifications. This is required by law in order to get hired or become a freelancer in ANY area of activity, not only in web/app development. It doesn't matter how good you are if you don't have the required credentials - no employer would risk breaking the law by hiring you.
Let me give you another example - if I suddenly get thousands of subscribers on my TH-cam channel and start montizing my content, I also have to earn some kind of credential in order to legally register as a freelancer. It may sound absurd but that's the way it is.
Great reminder! would need to listen to this every week
Can't believe I just found this channel. Deeply appreciate the amount of great information you're sharing with us. Thanks!
