The reason this guy is so good is because he is not trying to sell you anything. He is trying to help create a change of mindset in all of our working environments. Very inspirational!
While I agree with Sinek's message, David, I disagree with you about him selling something. He's selling a way of thinking/acting. What's more, it doesn't matter that I agree with what he says here, it's simply his opinion. Which is, of course, no more or less than my opinion.
"Made to" would defeat the purpose. Have 10-15 mins of Simon every few months, just enough to make him a reference point. Then see which manager says "Hmm, the thoughts of this guy resonate with me" and which ones don't.
"That means 90% of people still have a job". This is the first time I've heard Simon say something absolutely, horrifyingly incorrect. What is even scarier is how he proceeds to tell a fable regarding the US military with complete disregard to the fact that almost ALL taxpayer money goes entirely to US Dept of Defense, year after year AFTER YEAR...
This was shown in my Nursing Leadership class today...the part about hospital culture is what I vowed to help change 3 years ago when I started my bachelor of nursing degree..I graduate in summer! I come from a theatre background. We work crazy hours, it's stressful and we have very high intensity jobs. Things we do in theatre that work are trust each other, we know each other intimately (each others' families, health, personalities) and we socialize with our colleagues (opening nights are fun!). Also in theatre we LOVE our jobs. We make art! But I truly believe that those mentalities can also be applied to healthcare and will work. Thank you Simon for instilling passion and ideas in people like me in order to make positive changes, in small ways!
No. I'm a Store Manager. I listen to him on my days off. He's changing my way of thinking and managing. I know I'm a good manager,damn good. He makes things make sense and he's very inspiring. The first video I watched was amazing. I feel like he helps me sharpen tools.
40 minutes of caring about other people. woman walks up and talks about herself till the clip ends. /amazing view of the world. thanks for helping me wake up just a little more.
Simon, true leader, true servant!! I want you to know I share the same idea of a caring loving world... Thanks for sharing your passion and wisdom, it's crazy idealists like us who usually do change the world. Love Ellie
This is what the made the WWII generation great. They suffered through and endured depression and war AND laid the societal foundation of freedom that we enjoy down to this very day. They didn't do it for themselves. They selflessly did it for everyone else; for the towns and cities that they liberated. They did it for their own communities. We are sorely missing that nowadays.
Actually, the WWII generation did it for many reasons, but especially for Mom. So you're wrong. Your logic is missing an integral piece. Why did so many volunteer to begin with, before they were even issued a uniform? They weren't in a foxhole yet. There were no "friends" to fight for yet. They DID do it for Mom, God and Country AND eventually for their buddies.
Gaining Satisfaction in the fulfillment of "others" is truly the greatest feeling of confidence you can get. Once you realize that, your mind will be open to so much more things. You will be a more stronger person once you get this generalization in your head mentally. This mans words truly changed my LIFE.
Give and help because it's the right thing to do, not with an expectation of something in return. When you do this people appreciate you and relationship ensues. If you need their help in the future most people are very willing to help if asked because they remember when you did something for them without expectation.
Building trust in every team is very important!I experienced a back stabbing colleague who crushed any prospects I had for advancement or movement at my workplace 3 years ago.Fortunately I focused on working really hard, attended a self-development career class, and applied a few of the skills learnt -among them building trust with some of the people I work with.I have began to see results-positive ones. I am happier now at work than I've ever been!
It was great to hear all of this. We just studied John Wooden, UCLA coach, on Leadership. This had a great twist and chemical background. It made you think and gave you hope. My job is to go interact with either young students or older, unwell people. I improve their day by leaps and bounds. Dreaming that more people get this message. Thanks Simon
This is really inspiring! I really likes how Simon Sinek resonates my mind, and that he just has the ability to explain it effortlessly, with full of confidence. This is a must watch for everyone who seeks happiness in your daily life! Oh and by the way I've made myself a resume of what is really important along this inspiring talk, and I thought it could be useful for you: 13:10 - Risk when you do good to others 15:38 - Reason why confidence is important 21:05 - The impact of doing good to others 22:23 - Best part of doing good to others! (This is actually my favorite because it is true! And you have to try it) 25:25 - Don't expect anything when you do good to other, you can ask them what you want 26:55 - Building trusts 34:10 - People who overly being congratulated VS The Average 35:55 - Doing things you don't expect you would do, as a team 37:10 - Having a clear vision is important! Oh how I really agree with all that Simon talks about! Our world truly needs more people like Simon. Have a nice day! :)
Sounds so simple, yet so few take the time to put someone else first who deserves to be helped. Help those to help themselves; and they will help others. Great lesson!
Where have I been? This guy is deep. Perfect? No but who is? Go Simon! I just found you and will add you to my list of folks that ARE changing the World!
I can only pray and WORK hard to change my views - it's "the deal I make". I promise to make this sit in my grown adult kids' minds, too...... it's SO DAMN GREAT!!!!
Great words Simon Sinek. One of the best orator in the world. Inspirational words. I am 100% agree with your words, but most of folks who are listening to you, your words come to their one ear and come out from another. Majority of people HEARTLESS nowadays
Three years later I found this and I am so inspired. If you are reading this Simon Sinek thank you soo much. I am planning on becoming a motivational speaker myself, and I am learning allot from you. God Bless.
I like the comparison with the hospital. It is so powerful. You might care for the business, for the product, for the future of the company, and how you as the individual are you being cared for? Often company politics win over people. With this experience, people will not put 200% of their effort and engagement. People learn not to trust, which makes their engagement next time even harder.
I did a team building weekend as an undergraduate in an honors program that resulted in the same thing. What we need is a shift in this country from finding and exposing differences within our culture to banding together as Americans, as people to solve the bigger problems.
There is an old concept from philosophy that focuses on the distinction between substance and form. Form is an attribute of substance, one of many. It is within substance that all value and meaning exists. What Simon so beautifully illustrates in this talk are the consequences of substituting form over substance in our interactions and our institutions.
This guy is documenting the management structure of so many companies! This is great stuff! I'm a little late to the party, but wow, this is great. Thanks, Simon!
I can 100% confirm that I know the teacher that took me under her wing. Thank you Ms Tucci. In a way, I would have to say that I could leave my job if greed was what I wanted and make 2x as much, but why? I find my glee from trying to leave this earth better.
Actually, today I bought a cup of coffee for a lady I did not know. It was simply a very cold NYC and I struck a conversation with her and she recently had surgery on her foot tendons. It was cold and she was sitting on a bench. I just offerred to buy her a cup of coffee. She accepted and I felt truly great because I felt that I contributed to keeping her warm during a moment in which she might have been cold. :) ... Now I hear this and feel doubly better. :)
I love simon sineks lecture's, frist i saw his video on topic that how mobiles phones destroying are lifes. After that i start watching his video his lecture is helping me a lot. (Sorry if any grammatical mistakes, english in not my native language m still learning it)
You might begin to implement the message of doing good to others but you got to be confident also to keep some boundaries, to not let others take advantege for that and be a people pleaser, and become a doormat.
thinkin of setting up a business . I'm a natural leader I've been told . I would like to be the best kind of leader I possibly can . your teaching me thank you .
I love this guy - he has a back to the future approach showing the 'why' and the 'how' to adapt the basics in life business or personal... while others talk about the 'what'
Precisely why I work for myself; I choose my own missions that truly matter and I ensure that I receive as well as provide adequate treatment. The job gets done well and it makes me and the world better one tiny corner at a time. What would the world be like if the prevailing global focus was on healthy, constructive exchanges instead of on simply making money, gaining power, or having a job to keep your neck above water?
Bravo- your speech is wonderful! I am inspired to become that leader! Even when you are kind & no one cares, it becomes ingrained in your character and character builds strength.
34:03 I had a teacher once told me that students whose grades are 9 and 10 will work under the supervision of 8 and 7s in the companies of 5 and 6s. I kind of got the idea then, but now I fully understand this. Great teacher by the way. He was doing this in front of a class where most students were trying to be 10s. :) (Sorry for the unconventional grading system, I live in Europe :) )
True, am changing my job for the third time in two years and one month, this past one was horrendous, I have never been in such a toxic work environment before. I was literally harassed and mobbed by co-workers for the better part of a year. I cannot say I was passionate about the previous job, but I did like it more, and there was a higher sense of being part of a "team".
I've worked for some companies the vast majority treat their employees like cattle, when things went south emotional blackmail shows up asking for sacrifices while they're firing employes at ease. I worked in a project for a hotel group with 24x7 abusive schedules, after six months I asked the transfer to another project, human resources grant me the transfer, on my last day in that project I found out two more coworkers were leaving the proyect for the same reasons.
This is extremely inspiring to watch. 40 mins just flew by. Even though I've heard some of these things in other talks from Simon, it still hits as hard!
Excellent! I work in an organization that lives and breathes this way!! With that said, the only thing I have ever heard Simon say that I believe isn't true or right on the money, is the piece on Mother Theresa! I think that was inaccurate and a not a good example. Spiritual motives are just that, spiritual and inexplicable to the untrained heart and mind!! Other than that, EXCELLENT! xo
I feel like a lot of what both Simon Sinek and Russell Brand are talking about comes from the same place and addresses similar problems only they do it in very different styles. Especially when it comes to addiction, their assessment of the problem is spot on. Does anyone know whether the two have ever met? That would be an insightful conversation to listen to.
Simon is a very good speaker and all the context and ideas he shared is really inspiring to let everyone knows how fullfillment has an important role and would lead into Achievable results. Thank you for sharing this video, I'll share it to my team as well.
1.5M views, only 15k likes and only 339 comments. Very inspiring. Click the like button! Share the love, it costs you nothing to click it. Amazing speech and great advice.
Simon SInek, love the talk, you are a GREAT person, i do have a little problem with the strong wording of the title "LOVE MY JOB" like you truly said, its not the money we doing what we do, but because you love our jobs, right? love is charitable, its a deed, i love my wife, therefor i don`t expect money from her, however..., what if your superior tells you to work for free because you love your job.. just a thought, love your talks non the less and i am also sharing this at our workplace too. keep up the good work
The reason this guy is so good is because he is not trying to sell you anything. He is trying to help create a change of mindset in all of our working environments. Very inspirational!
David McCallum true well said .... Have A Amazing Life .. Lol
So true!
True. Except he makes a killing doing these talks. And he has books he sells. But i get what you're saying.
While I agree with Sinek's message, David, I disagree with you about him selling something.
He's selling a way of thinking/acting.
What's more, it doesn't matter that I agree with what he says here, it's simply his opinion.
Which is, of course, no more or less than my opinion.
He's not trying to sell the "what". He's trying to sell the "why".
And that's why we bought it.
I can hear him all day. Every leader/manager should be made to listen to him 30 mins daily.
I'm listening anything from him everyday...
"Made to" would defeat the purpose. Have 10-15 mins of Simon every few months, just enough to make him a reference point. Then see which manager says "Hmm, the thoughts of this guy resonate with me" and which ones don't.
I really like the way this guy talks. Plainly, coherently and persuasively!
Олег Горбунов kjk
He's really good.
"That means 90% of people still have a job". This is the first time I've heard Simon say something absolutely, horrifyingly incorrect. What is even scarier is how he proceeds to tell a fable regarding the US military with complete disregard to the fact that almost ALL taxpayer money goes entirely to US Dept of Defense, year after year AFTER YEAR...
If he could stop all the and,um and ahs.
It's lectures like these that demonstrate the power of the internet to teach rather than the classroom.
About fucking time if you ask me.
I can't get enough of Simon. He is amazing!
This was shown in my Nursing Leadership class today...the part about hospital culture is what I vowed to help change 3 years ago when I started my bachelor of nursing degree..I graduate in summer! I come from a theatre background. We work crazy hours, it's stressful and we have very high intensity jobs.

Thank you Simon for instilling passion and ideas in people like me in order to make positive changes, in small ways!
I knew it was going to be a great talk when he started talking about the Marines! Great post Meghan.
How is nursing going 6 years later?
After all world never appreciated a man with money and power than a man who offer helping hand to others.
my favorite line: Do MORE with what you HAVE.......really liked it!!!!
I feel good hearing him, is it just me?
No, he is very inspiring.
L Desiron his cadence is really smooth too, it carries the message in a very soothing manner.
No. I'm a Store Manager. I listen to him on my days off. He's changing my way of thinking and managing. I know I'm a good manager,damn good. He makes things make sense and he's very inspiring. The first video I watched was amazing. I feel like he helps me sharpen tools.
It's not just you. For a millennial such as myself he talks about the world and everything else in a way that is so much easier to understand!
all of us .... love all his concepts
40 minutes of caring about other people. woman walks up and talks about herself till the clip ends. /amazing view of the world. thanks for helping me wake up just a little more.
Simon, true leader, true servant!! I want you to know I share the same idea of a caring loving world... Thanks for sharing your passion and wisdom, it's crazy idealists like us who usually do change the world. Love Ellie
Simon's always on the right track and only a few can match him. Well done, Simon!
"If we don't love our work, we don't look out for each other.." - Simon Sinek
The story about the marines is powerful.
Companies don't do business with companies. People do business with people. Amazing insight
This is what the made the WWII generation great. They suffered through and endured depression and war AND laid the societal foundation of freedom that we enjoy down to this very day. They didn't do it for themselves. They selflessly did it for everyone else; for the towns and cities that they liberated. They did it for their own communities. We are sorely missing that nowadays.
Actually soldiers fight for the friend next to them in the foxhole, not mom and apple pie back home.

Could watch this dude for hours, talks plain sense with no bullsh*t
Love the clients who respect you and appreciate your generosity. Reject the narcisistic clients.
Oh was that 40 minutes? I seriously just jumped to the future. This guy makes some amazing points.
It was great to hear all of this. We just studied John Wooden, UCLA coach, on Leadership. This had a great twist and chemical background. It made you think and gave you hope.

I quite enjoy listening to this guy.
Where have I been? This guy is deep. Perfect? No but who is? Go Simon! I just found you and will add you to my list of folks that ARE changing the World!
This guys has dominating speech and makes you to listen his words. It’s magical
I can only pray and WORK hard to change my views - it's "the deal I make". I promise to make this sit in my grown adult kids' minds, too...... it's SO DAMN GREAT!!!!
This is so completely true. We have to take the risk to make ourselves vulnerable. I find this presentation very well worth watching.
Great words Simon Sinek. One of the best orator in the world. Inspirational words. I am 100% agree with your words, but most of folks who are listening to you, your words come to their one ear and come out from another. Majority of people HEARTLESS nowadays

I cant get enough of this Guy!!!
The power of helping others recognize their own value and strengths. Wow. Great talk by #SimonSinek
great message. I will try my best to bring it to my work and life
This made me emotional. You are amazing Simon!
This guy is documenting the management structure of so many companies! This is great stuff! I'm a little late to the party, but wow, this is great. Thanks, Simon!
This is nothing new, but every generation needs to learn it
There is indeed big power in all those "no big deals" things we do for people we do not know.
I love this! We need more people like him. We need more people like us who understand and appreciate what he's saying. thank you Simon Sinek.
I can 100% confirm that I know the teacher that took me under her wing. Thank you Ms Tucci. In a way, I would have to say that I could leave my job if greed was what I wanted and make 2x as much, but why? I find my glee from trying to leave this earth better.
Simon is a great communicator. This is a very helpful clip. I also think Nancy Duarte's "The Structure of Great Presentations" ted talk is powerful.
Actually, today I bought a cup of coffee for a lady I did not know. It was simply a very cold NYC and I struck a conversation with her and she recently had surgery on her foot tendons. It was cold and she was sitting on a bench. I just offerred to buy her a cup of coffee. She accepted and I felt truly great because I felt that I contributed to keeping her warm during a moment in which she might have been cold. :) ... Now I hear this and feel doubly better. :)
Another awesome talk by Simon Sinek!

You might begin to implement the message of doing good to others but you got to be confident also to keep some boundaries, to not let others take advantege for that and be a people pleaser, and become a doormat.
Profound! Now here is someone I would pay to listen to.
thinkin of setting up a business . I'm a natural leader I've been told . I would like to be the best kind of leader I possibly can . your teaching me thank you .
FYI, Grunts are not the lowest of the lowest.. They are the bravest of the bravest!! the cream of the crop, the ones who determine victory!
Yeah, I caught that too. He was just illustrating, but he could have put it a little different.
if you have a job, u ll relate to this. this would be story of you and your company
i clicked on this thinking it was going to be a stand up comedian.......but i learned things. works for me!
Clearly the most inspiring message I've heard in few years. And the most realistic and believable too. Thanks.
Life bible. Thank you Simon. I bought/read your book START WITH WAY several years ago, I'm from/live in Panama.
Thanks so much Simon... Just what all middle management and CEO's need to watch and hopefully they may begin to understand their staff!
Excellent from beginning to end.
Simple healing
Yeyette Albert
Thats how you change the world
I love this guy - he has a back to the future approach showing the 'why' and the 'how' to adapt the basics in life business or personal... while others talk about the 'what'
this is fire. best talk ever and I'm 20 minutes in.
Это православная икона, ты из россии?
Simon always inspire me.After all thank you.
I've shared this with all my friends. It's a must-watch! 👥
The way you talk the way of your expressions its just wow just wwwoowww really its natural love it
Precisely why I work for myself; I choose my own missions that truly matter and I ensure that I receive as well as provide adequate treatment. The job gets done well and it makes me and the world better one tiny corner at a time. What would the world be like if the prevailing global focus was on healthy, constructive exchanges instead of on simply making money, gaining power, or having a job to keep your neck above water?

This is outstanding. I really think this talk just changed my life.
That teacher example at 17 mins was awesome.
Unfortunate that I cannot name one.
+Yoo Ten Sill same
Amazing wisdom and insight, thank you for sharing Simon
I've worked for some companies the vast majority treat their employees like cattle, when things went south emotional blackmail shows up asking for sacrifices while they're firing employes at ease.
I worked in a project for a hotel group with 24x7 abusive schedules, after six months I asked the transfer to another project, human resources grant me the transfer, on my last day in that project I found out two more coworkers were leaving the proyect for the same reasons.
I can listen to him forever ❤
Another powerful, inspiring & talk from Sinek.
...This is like a Hypnotic Session...AMAZING!
This is extremely inspiring to watch. 40 mins just flew by. Even though I've heard some of these things in other talks from Simon, it still hits as hard!
I love the way he explains things. Great words of encouragement 🙏
Excellent! I work in an organization that lives and breathes this way!! With that said, the only thing I have ever heard Simon say that I believe isn't true or right on the money, is the piece on Mother Theresa! I think that was inaccurate and a not a good example. Spiritual motives are just that, spiritual and inexplicable to the untrained heart and mind!! Other than that, EXCELLENT! xo
I feel like a lot of what both Simon Sinek and Russell Brand are talking about comes from the same place and addresses similar problems only they do it in very different styles. Especially when it comes to addiction, their assessment of the problem is spot on. Does anyone know whether the two have ever met? That would be an insightful conversation to listen to.
Simon is a very good speaker and all the context and ideas he shared is really inspiring to let everyone knows how fullfillment has an important role and would lead into Achievable results. Thank you for sharing this video, I'll share it to my team as well.
I really love the way he explained very inspiring message to take on ..
Great compilation, nice job! More motivated, this helps me to keep going in the right direction.
25:31-26:40 is a great example of good communication
blessed to be a coach I get to do this everyday

The best movie I can think of about being a good person is... PAY IT FORWARD!
Thanks for changing my perspective
That's why I'm a network marketer I feel fulfilled every time I help some achieve their goals! The corporate life aint for me
Besides being brilliant, he sounds EXACTLY like Ted Mosby. It just doesn't get any better than that.
Yes!!! Which is probably why he seems very familiar. :)
Simon SInek, love the talk, you are a GREAT person,
i do have a little problem with the strong wording of the title "LOVE MY JOB"
like you truly said, its not the money we doing what we do, but because you love our jobs, right?
love is charitable, its a deed, i love my wife, therefor i don`t expect money from her,
however..., what if your superior tells you to work for free because you love your job..
just a thought,
love your talks non the less and i am also sharing this at our workplace too.
keep up the good work
his words r enough to just heard n get cool in a stressful life..
thanks for this wonderful video!
You are so smart I'm binge watching ☺ Thanks...
it was a very inspiring video
thank you for uploading it
Leaned a lot from it
I am gonna change myself.
enjoyed every moment.
Awesome Speaker ever 👍🏼
