Writing a book has been a dream of mine since I was a child.
And I can say for a fact that this book wouldn't be what it is without you all. The feedback on my ideas in videos, newsletters, and content has been invaluable.
After 3 years, 2 scrapped drafts, and banging my head against the keyboard almost every morning, I'm grateful I finally get to share this.
Thank you. I truly hope you enjoy the book.
Congrats!🎉 My copy should be arriving today! Looking forward to reading it.📖
Since you made this, it would be great to make a maybe 5-10 pager summary as well and then also link to your book in it.. (example: ray dalio's principles book summary)
@DanKoeTalks you're absolutely genius 😮. For someone so young you're philosophical mind is just mind-blowing. I read all your emails and getting so much help from them. I bet when you were starting this your target audience was for young males like you but here I am, a 47yr old mum of 4 who gets invaluable help from you. Thank you so much for your content and keep spreading your genius. We need to clone you to teach the young kids in all our schools 🙏👍
Hi Dan, I can listen to this any given time of the day, even years from now. More power! You are changing lives.
Did you read the book "Esoteric Mind Power" by Vernon Howard? you're saying different words but the thought and idea are similar, that is leading to ONE.
I understand its difficult for authors to do their own audiobooks, but it just makes them sooo much better when they do.
100% especially if you know thier voice so well
where is the audiobook link??
Yeah I feel that not having the author's voice in the audiobook shows a lack of commitment to what they wrote
@@911RoyMansometimes people just don't have time to do that...
If the book will sell very well, I'm sure authors could find time to record audiobooks
The biggest problem of this video is that it ends. I would honestly keep listening for hours. We're all blessed that the universe made us come to your content.
What a good problem to have though. All jokes aside, agreed mate. Dan's content is pretty unmatched when it comes to the niche of self-improvement as well as others.
Dan Koe this is pure gold. This is everything someone who is striving for personal improvement and riches needs to read/listen to.
A mahatma whose thoughts purify the souls
Totally agree
All I can say is thank you for your knowledge and insights in this book. I'm 48 yrs old and listening to this has given me the building blocks for a better me both in my family life and also my professional life. Dan you are THE MAN.. Lol 👊🏽🙌🏽🙏
This man's going to change my life and I promise I'll meet him one day and thank him for what he has done. Thank you much.
he can help you, but at the end of the day its up to you to change your life.

I'm thoroughly grateful for this book. The 27 principles are gold, and I'm going to print and frame them to place on the wall near my desk for daily reading, reflection, and meditation. Thank you Dan Koe 🙏 Blessed Be ✌️🤟🤙
I think it's really great you are creating the summary yourself. The first time I saw any author do that by themselves was Mark Manson - and I really liked it.
Well done and congrats for the book launch by the way 🙏🏼
I must be living under a rock, because I had to search up who that was. Turns out Mark Manson is the author of the subtle art of not giving a F*ck. lol, thanks for the recommendation.
Hello 👋🏻I am from India I have watched the full video and now I reflect on that , then I know that this was pure gold but then also I am not able to apply this in real world (practicle knowledge vs theoretical) I can't remember much and after some time I will forget this .
Thank you Dan koe this was an amazing video but if you and anyone here can help me then comment what you have learnt and Dan koe please make a video and tell about the practical knowledge, at this present time how to make our life better practically
Anyone can comment on this and tell what they have learnt practically and applied in real world
Thank you
Dan, thank you for being you. I wish I had met you earlier, but now is the time for action. I will continue to enjoy your content and character, and hope to have your paperback book in my hand tomorrow.
I feel reassured that these are concepts that I though about myself, but Dan Koe clarified them even more. This is incredibly helpful given that AI will indeed take jobs. What most people don't know, in my opinion, is that, for the moment being, you can use AI programs to leverage your skillset both in the internet and in real life, but you need a foundation of "deep knowledge" that focus will give you.
What a changing world that we live in. I am curious, how do you use AI in either your work, business, or hobbies? I find it somewhat limiting with all the tools out there which is an irony.
I mainly use ChatGPT to give me title ideas for my own newsletter. However, for actual content creation, I find it can be somewhat lacking.
First content creator to actually make an effect. A lot of content on TH-cam is a distraction, Wake yourself up with Dan Koe!
Update; As I finish the video, this is very powerful information. It is crazy how its woken me up to realization of the prison I have been holding myself in, leading me to wake up to the path of my potential. Wow. Thank You Dan Koe!
So happy to be a part of the history you’re making, Dan. I got the early edition…so stoked!
Ngl, this is very insightful and powerful, no wonder only 86k views as of 6/14/24. For those who watched this was your sign don't waste it.
00:00 📚 The Art Of Focus is a philosophy for finding meaning, reinventing yourself, and creating your ideal future, shared by the author, Dan Koe.
00:57 🔄 Society conditions people into a default path, leading to a dull and mechanical life; breaking away requires setting and sticking to personal goals.
01:56 🧐 Distractions lead away from self-discovery; overcoming the default path requires focus, as humans process 10-50 bits of information per second consciously.
03:24 🕰 The book outlines 27 principles, emphasizing the timeless nature of principles over temporary tactics in various domains of life.
05:51 💡 Success involves accepting the present, practicing radical acceptance, exploring the unknown, and becoming a holistic synthesizer.
07:17 🔍 Reality is nuanced, and a positive perspective is shaped by questioning everything; the ego should be developed, not eliminated.
08:44 🎯 The three pillars to a good life: Focus, Energy, and Experience. Training focus involves setting personal goals and embracing radical open-mindedness.
11:38 🌌 Viewing life as a game involves creating personal goals, constructing paths to achieve them, and understanding situations as challenges to enjoy.
14:31 🔄 Society conditions individuals into narrow perspectives; critical thinking, self-generated goals, and problem-solving lead to conscious personal creation.
17:23 🎮 Life parallels a video game; individuals can change their "character" at any time, leveling up through skills, networks, and environmental changes.
20:18 📷 Perspective is a lens; embracing multiple ideologies allows a broader view of reality, enhancing decision-making and reducing reactive behavior.
22:15 🤔 Actively making decisions, even if they lead to failure, is crucial for progress and high-quality decision-making.
22:45 🧘♂ To combat negativity and chaos, align your purpose, path, and priority with your ideal future to ground your attention.
23:15 🚀 Embrace difficulty; a quick-fix attitude is a trap. Masters persist through difficulty and find enjoyment beyond the challenges.
24:11 🔄 Avoid stagnation by continually learning, building, and discovering. Change requires stepping into the unknown to find interests and gain clarity.
25:08 🤔 Create an anti-vision and vision by understanding what you don't want, leading to insights about what you do want in life.
26:35 💪 Solve personal problems first (health, wealth, relationships) before tackling broader societal issues. Your purpose evolves from superficial to metaphysical.
27:34 🚀 Curiosity is crucial; appreciate, understand, master, and monetize your interests. Dive into the unknown, following a hierarchy of goals.
28:33 🌐 We are in a second Golden Age; formal education is challenged. Deep knowledge is vital for the future, and online learning with creators as teachers is the way forward.
30:27 💼 Deep knowledge is a zip file for the mind. Craft your future by learning valuable skills, contributing to humanity through business, and creating an independent income.
32:55 🏝 Intentional lifestyle design is essential. Aim for a four-hour workday, prioritize meaningful work, and follow a system to maximize mental output and enjoyment.
35:21 🧠 Focus on results-oriented skills in the digital world; constantly adapt to advancements. Writing, speaking, marketing, and sales are foundational for success.
36:50 🛠 Specialize in a domain but stack skills to solve broader problems. Value exchange is essential; spread valuable information through writing and speaking.
41:45 🌟 Personal projects bring fulfillment. Projects are tangible hierarchies of goals, and continuous learning through struggle is the source of true learning.
43:11 🧠 Learning is turning knowledge into understanding, and projects frame what you learn.
43:38 🚀 To learn efficiently, create a project, build, teach, identify knowledge gaps, study, and repeat.
44:05 🤔 Self-experimentation is crucial; it's the opposite of blind trust and leads to discovering what works for you.
44:35 💡 Research various solutions, test them, note results, and create your own personalized solution.
45:33 💼 Everyone is an entrepreneur; solve personal problems, turn solutions into products, and tap into eternal markets (health, wealth, relationships, happiness).
46:32 💰 Your most profitable niche is you; your purpose is your brand, path is your product, and priorities are your content.
47:00 🌐 In modern business, you are the niche; saturation ceases to exist, and everyone offers a unique product.
47:58 🌍 The fate of humanity depends on individuals shaping progress; turning yourself into a business is how you contribute on a spiritual level.
Thank you
Bro worked hard to write a comment
@@MdRiyaz-sp9tv Thank you for your appreciation.
Thanks bro ❤❤❤❤
Harpa Ai aur any other notes taking Ai??
You have the power to impact me to do more in my life and give people what I have and inner quality within. Definitely going to read, study and apply in life and teach people, those unaware of it. Thankful to you @Dan
I've read into chapter 2 so far. And I have enjoyed what I've listened to. It feels like getting an in-depth view into the mind of Dan Koe. Will be listening to 30 more min of the audiobook on my run today! Keep it up
Huge fan of you, Dan.
Your every word of vedios, threads and quotes directly hit my mind and heart. Love the way you always cover the reality, the art of focus. Yes, THE ART OF FOCUS.
Congratulations on your launch 🎉
No matter how bad I feel, the content you produce always makes me feel better. It gives hope. Thank you for that
In a world of distractions, this channel has helped me so much.

Very high quality and profound stuff, kudos to you Dan for thinking through, reflecting and sharing rhis wisdom.
I already got the audio book, I think I would need a physical copy more than that I need to read it multiple times to be able to apply, thanks Dan again!!
Oh wow, there is so much here that I pretty much have to get the book and then read it slowly, really contemplate, write about, this looks like an ongoing read, reread, contemplate, apply, come back to for sure. Thank you!!
The simplicity with which you described so many complex things that we experience and think about on a daily basis is nothing short of amazing. Great video. Great book. Great ideas. All hail Dan Koe - the modern day philosopher🙌

Paper back is not available in India 🗿
Not sure what's up with Amazon and that. I'll be selling through my site soon and will be able to ship anywhere. Apologies for the wait :/
@@DanKoeTalks Tysm brother, This is Ensuring!!
I trust you @@DanKoeTalks
We will be waiting brother
Neither kindle is available in mexico, I just can't buy any format of the book
Worth the time. Thank you
Thank you so much sir, LOVE FROM INDIA
Three points: One, you should spend at least one day just considering the implications of each sentence/bullet point; two, there's enough gold in this free content here to change anyone's life, if they implement it; and three, I'll be getting the audiobook only because I spend too many hours staring at a monitor for my work (and I'm working on a few writing projects for myself). I much prefer paper books, and I'll probably get them both anyways! Thanks, Dan - much appreciated :)
Was looking for something a bit longer and boom got me a free audio book ! Honestly I must admit
Finding your yt channel was almost perfect timing! Everything you talk about just clicks
I wish I could like this 500 times. You are the goat dude.
We are witnessing the birth of a classic, congratulations. Excellent work with wich I feel really identified from my personal experience.
Thank you, finished reading.
Been waiting for this!!-

Thanks man❤
Thank you
What a legend you are
Good job man
Everytime I solved a problem for myself I almost immediately felt I need to make a product out of it - and felt somehow childish for the idea - thanks for the relief
YOU ARE AWESOME ❤️
Fire!!!🔥🔥🔥
that 's so great
Bullseye!! 🎯 Brilliant.
Great content. I am going through the kindle book (+ audio book). Goid to get a consolidated and sequenced view on the whole thing.
I am a little surprised that there are no illustrations in it, like in the newsletters.
Any comments about that decision?
Got the audiobook. Whole thing feels nebulous and impractical. I know this is deliberate as its stated at the start.
You mean it's more philosophical? Like what aspects you liked and you didn't like about it?
@@PCWorld2adyexactly. He's already summarised the practical steps in other places. It's just too vague for my liking.
Legend.
Sir, Do you know OSHO, Have you read upnishads, Gita, Astavakra gita...etc or other high level philosophys❤
Hey dude thanks for the summary; thought i’d let you know 18:05 seem to have an unintended cut
WHAT THE HECKKK. WOAHHHH I DOWNLOADED IT. THANKS A BUNCH
Watching this while commuting hits different
Thanks
