Happy Birthday Ali! It's always so inspirational to watch your videos ✨
We do love this type of content Ali! Hearing your genuine thoughts and realizations!
One thing I'd like to see more of are videos of you talking about different topics based on scientific research, much like how you did it in your book!
You did a great job breaking down the results/finding of these studies in your book, would love to see those in a video format! ❤
Life is a succession of lessons which must be lived to be understood." - Helen Keller .. Happy birthday Ali
U continue to inspire me Ali. And thank you for remaining a kind and caring person throughout the years. Although I don’t know you personally, I just know you have the kindest soul. Looking forward to following your journey for the many more years to come x
hey ali love you're content but i have to ask. Have you ever had the feeling when you do start doing something good and everything is starting to work out and go well but then everything just changes and goes bad fast? I have that feeling when ever i get back up on my feet something bad comes my way im not sure how i would go pass that barrier. Would you have any tips on if you have handle that kind of barrier before in life? would love to know
I loved this video. Genuinely took notes after so long:
1. Just get started, think later
2. Enjoy the process, 5K subscribers or 5M, you're still the same person with same interests (I read the blog post too - the day I became a millionaire)
3. Add friction to overcome bad habits, remove friction and make obvious to create good ones
4. Progress comes when you're having fun
5. Less (3-5) projects is more progress and fun
6. Ok to leave money on the table, don't get so serious that you forget to enjoy the journey
These advices are accumulated from your real life experiences over years, which is why I know these are fundamentally important.
I'm 22, super grateful to have a channel like yours to follow. Ngl you might be my favourite youtuber. Been following you since the early days of the pandemic, you're the reason why I got obsessed with notion. You made studying cool, blew my mind. I'm proudly an "og fan", I could say I've seen your journey. Always been one of the first people to click when you upload. You are genuinely a friendly big brother figure. Will always be here no matter what man, keep growing🍀
Thanks 🙏
I'm literally overwhelmed, You are a blessing to the world. I can't thank you enough *DaleValskov* for helping me with my account recovery. My prayers will always be with you and your team. Keep it up guys. Love from Maldives. There are many people out there I pray everybody get help.
Congratulations, *DaleValskov* I am relieved that you are out there fighting these thugs, We musttake every precaution to protect the elderly and the general public from these despicable con artists. Congratulations to You!! You deserve the Nobel Peace Prize for ensuring our security.
"I thought 7 years ago would be 2013 or something, but I can't believe it's actually 2017!"
its 2024 :/ almost a decade
True that!
I am not the only one then. Fsr my brain is still stuck in 2020..
It's such a mind F.
I did not believe that after the whole FTX drama there's any good to get this year but *DaleValskov* proved otherwise. Bad timing maybe but it's a great adoption to get this more to the mainstream and raise awareness. Probably a high contender for a top 100 growth
As a person and professional you couldn't get any better than *DaleValskov* he is a very reliable person and an excellent professional in the IT field. He is the type of person you want to work that's passionate, hardworking and knowledgeable. You’re The Best 100%
Okay thanks
The efficiency of this *DaleValskov* is next level. To juggle walk throughs of various angles on the topic delivered to-camera, differnet content per topic from various folks underneath the umbrella of the track list of the larger big band concert itself is engaging and refined. To make a dense taccess like this so digestible is really something. Awesome work jack!!
We have been on a recession since the beginning of 2022, but big media and governments all over the world didn’t want to admit it. We need to be wise and use our brains. Knowledge is power and I’d like all the family to be powerful! Just purchased some *DaleValskov* Thanks for keeping us informed during this times of doubt?
Great thanks
My heart goes to the entire community for *DaleValskov* building up something even my grandpa can understand. This is so smart by them to launch it to shatter the doubts and fears of the common folk which is not even correct to begin with. Everyone knows the state of inflation and recession now and the way out is already in progress. Now it's just about catching the big fish
Happy birthday! 🎉 I turn 40 this year, it goes so fast! One thing I wish I would have known or realized at 20 is how much better life gets with time; I was so afraid to get older when I was a teenage and early 20s and it’s actually amazing being here later in life.
You took the words right out of my mouth.
*DaleValskov* has the most potential to do more than X10. ETH and BTC will most likely do a X5-X6, but that's fine for me. Gotta look for better entry points while I stake IRIS and PGEN, then wait for Polygen's next raise as I also look at their new partnership with Kenzo Ventures
"the way I spent the last two years is not how I would choose to spend the rest of my life"
"if I could design my life completely from scratch, what would it look like?"
"focusing on enjoying the process leads to better results than focusing on trying to get better results"
I think you may have just changed my perspective of life!
June 2017-It is amazing how much has happened in 7 short years! I'm 15 years older than Ali, but 7 years ago, I began my master's, and now I'm in a Ph.D. program and about to travel to study for 4 weeks in Germany. I love these kinds of reflective videos!!!
I want to know how your career and life would be different after masters vs after PhD, please explain
Very inspiring right
Nice! I’m similar. What is your field?
@@sanjeevsethi6330 I am a high school teacher, so my career is still in education, but being a student again helps me to be more helpful for my 9th grade students. The PhD is helping me answer questions I have that are hidden in German and Latin that I’m looking forward to researching. This process has also opened speaking opportunities, something I love to do. Hope that’s helpful

I feel that the last bull run was bolstered by all the money being printed. Major returns next bull run but I think they will be tamer in my humble opinion. A 10x on *DaleValskov* and a 15x on polygon are fair considering how much those two coins are interwov
Your longer videos make the process of folding my mountain of laundry every weekend much less painful. I consider it a form of habit-stacking.
Happy 30th Ali! Just turned 30 myself in January, thanks for sharing this was a great watch and reminder that life is short and we need to take action now and just enjoy the journey
These type of videos you've started making- has such a rawness in it... In a sense that it is genuine, unfiltered, calming and assuring. Love that you're continuing to work on your pace, Ali! You're doing great, as you always have.
Looking forward to your next videos.
As someone just starting out my journey here on YT trying to tell stories of my 30 rescue cats and 6 dogs, this is profound, Ali. Thank you for all the lessons, your journey is an inspiration especially to us, the creators. Happy Birthday!
I am an OG fan of the channel! 😭 it’s crazy to see how you’ve grown and how ur channel has grown. I just wanna say I’m so proud of you and you’re literally the most cognizant and humble UA-camr I know. Thank you Ali 🌟
I discovered your channel in jan 2024, and thanks to you, it's been my best year so far. I've never clarified my goals this well or approached my passions with such focus. While others often say generic things, you make us ask ourselves deep but very basic questions that lead us to reflect mindfully. Thank you Ali
One of the things I envy about you Ali, is how you have been able to build your life and business such that views aren’t the core objective anymore.
Freeing yourself from that cycle must be absolutely freeing!
I hope to get to that position one day.
am 25 now and more optimistic looking forward to focusing, aligning my goals and working on my dreams relentlessly, the time frame is these 5 years to 30 and everytime i look up people like you, am persauded that it is actually more than possible, SO THANK YOU Big bro.
When I was a teenager ,I downloaded your video about things you wish knew about being a teenager and only watched half ,nowthat I am 20 i will download this one

Happy Birthday Ali! I’m so grateful I found your channel in 2023! Thank you for sharing your journey with us and all the hard work you put in your YT channel. Greatly appreciate all the valuable content you provide ❤️
Ali, this video is my favorite video of yours. I’ve been following you for about three years, you’ve always been the UA-camr I watched to learn. Thank you so much for everything ❤
You’re changing lives, and it’s not an exaggeration. All the best!
Happy Birthday Ali. It's amazing how this is one of my favorite of your videos.
I just love the fact that you showed me how your journey was like. And I really loved that I'm just here after deleting most apps that waste my time, scrolling and looking for what to do. I stumbled upon this video and it's like heart to heart conversation of my journey right now. One thing that stood out is 'the journey is the destination'.
Hey Ali, I have been watching your videos since last year and I feel grateful that I discovered your channel. Videos like these really helps teenagers like me (I am 17 btw) to grow in life and not make the same mistakes that you guys did, or atleast minimize them.
I love your philosophy that it’s not about more, it’s about enjoying the journey. It’s definitetly something I struggle with and something I want to flip the script on.
Dear Ali,
Firstly, happy birthday 🌷
Secondly, I absolutely love these long, from the heart videos you're doing now. I watch/listen to every one of them from start to finish, and more of often than not, several times.
tearing up watching the growth of my favorite youtuber, thank you for bringing so much joy and inspiration to us. happy birthday Ali!!!
Thank you so much for this video Ali. I'm 20 and felt purposeless and lost. You've been like a virtual friend or wise internet friend who I can rely on. Happy Birthday
I love this type of content. It's a great practice to what you preach on taking the time for reflection, even in this 7-year kind of retrospect. Thanks for sharing what you've learned! Learning from someone who's one to two, or ten steps ahead of me is wonderful and I appreciate your wisdom!
This video made me so emotional. I've been watching you for years and you've always been a huge inspiration to me and my channel, but it's also hard to not feel like I am behind compared to other people my age. I'm 24 and somewhat feel like I have no idea what I'm doing with my life. Focusing on these lessons really felt like everything would probably be okay - thank you for sharing, Ali!
The type of videos that I enjoyed more from you is when you are sharing your life and thoughts without any script or based on any books.
Of course books might be the place we get inspiration from, but I love to see you sharing your thoughts genuinely like this one, it is kinda like heart to heart talk. It feels like I am actually sitting in front of you hearing you.
Thanks for making so much great content over the years. Happy Birthday Ali 🎈
Agreed! I mostly watch his most vulnerable videos❤ happy birthday🎉
Hi Ali! I've just been looking at this channel for the past two days and just wanted to say thank you. I was originally drawn in by the financial freedom side of your videos, but after seeing your demeanor and character I started watching some of the other videos as well, and it's really helped me see how much more there is to life. Financial freedom is still a goal, but there are so many other things that can add fulfillment and I learned a lot from this video. It was so genuine, and you have such a kind and gentle soul! I'm only 18 but hoping to bring some of these lessons along with me in life.
Hi Ali, I never commented before, but the things you said regarding "old" and "recent" Ali vs the "middle" Ali I feel. I want to say I harbor no grudges or blame or negative affect towards you, chasing goals and monetizing the channel and business to support yourself. Glad to see you "speaking from the heart" again. Keep it coming! Also congrats on 30!
Those kind of videos are my favorite. Not too planed, and reflective on what you did right and the thought process behind it . Best of all, what you did wrong. It helps us figure out what we are doing wrong.
Ali, happy birthday! Your videos have been quite valuable to me. I always like unwinding after a long day with your videos; they are pure gold.
I also turned 30 this year and am chasing the life I desire while enjoying the journey, no matter how difficult it is.
In about a month, I'll start reading your book. I just wanted to share that with you and thank you for the inspiration. 🙌
I will be turning 20 this November. "Have a bias to action" is what I'm most pleased to hear about. I always wanted to try new things but doubted whether they were worth it, so I never started. Glad to watch this video ❤ and looking forward to applying these in my life.
whats the thing youre wanting to try at the moment
Thank you, Ali! I started following you during the pandemic and every time I watch your videos, I feel like I have a friend who’s always there to give me advice or inspiration. ❤ God Bless you and the rest of your journey. 🙏 Continue inspiring people.
Enjoying the process and the journey... Also doing less and being content with what you have are the resounding advice I got from this video. Thank you Ali and appreciate you for staying authentic as well, I still feel you haven't lost the script or plot in your journey unlike other creators I've seen over the years.
Happy 30 years old! And thanks for all useful contents you shared with us through these years. We're all looking forward other life lessons and wish u a good health😊
Can’t emphasise how much I absolutely LOVE these rambly videos. They genuinely feel so natural like it’s my big brother talking and giving me life advice lol.
Happy birthday to an amazing teacher and mentor! You've guided me on how to improve my life and live it to the fullest. Your wisdom and knowledge are invaluable, and your impact is like having written 1000 productive books. Thank you for your inspiration and guidance.
Hey there, Ali. I'm currently 20, working on my shifting from Statistics to pursue my study of Philosophy and a working student as well. Im about to turn 21 in a few days and I got to say that I feel too overwhelmed in life.
Thank you for making this video. This helped me so much. "Focusing on enjoying the process will bring the rest" hits me to the core.
Love lots from the Philippines.
Belated happy birthday, Ali! I've been following you since I was in high school (~late 2018/ early 2019) and am now in my 20's (so this advice is especially relevant right now). It's been amazing following your growth over the past few years, and I appreciate you taking us viewers along on the journey : ).
My daughter was following you since she was in highschool, when she was going through stressful times your videos helped her,
I remeber watching few with her, she is in a top undergard college now and you were a good influence and I am proud of your journey too....congratulations on your book launch it feels like someone in the family launched a book! we are ordering your book. Good luck to you Ali!!
I watched it till the end and i loved how you were reflecting on younger Ali, i like to see people evolve and reflect on their hard times or unsure times and eventually all these thoughts and worry resolve. This video motivated me to reflect on my self and even do more so i can reflect on my succes in years after
I really appreciate how you enjoyed the process, me always procrastinating pushing to share what I believe I have with me, and I’m good at😊
I used to watch your videos back in the day before the lockdown and I agree that something felt off since then, but I'm glad you're doing what you love and genuinely find joy in, which is reflected in the videos.
Got very emotional watching this video, I am 24 and I have been watching your videos since 2019. It’s been a long time. I appreciate the videos and your efforts for making these videos so they can add some positivity to our lives.
As always, this is inspiring Ali! I’ll be turning 23 next month, and I just realized you were same age when you took the bold step of starting this journey. I’m definitely taking these lessons very seriously. Thank you and happy birthday once again!
Thank you, Ali. I am very happy to watch this video. I am really happy. You gave me hope in life. I am 20 years old and I always say that I am a failure. I have not achieved anything. I am in a wheelchair and I always felt like I was just a failure. After that, it changed my outlook on life. Thank you. Many
Thank you so much Ali! I'm from Mexico. I've been following your channel for almost a year now, and I've heard the first advice in previous videos of yours... but it somehow really clicked with me today. I can't believe I actually did it and literally just picked up my phone, plugged in my mic, and started recording. I've now officially posted my first crappy video, and I truly can't believe it. Thanks so much for the inspiration. It's okay to just get started even if it's not good at first.
Fantastic!
Crazy to see how far you've come. I started watching you 5 years ago when I was half-way through my undergrad for studying and productivity techniques, that's why I came, but why I stayed is because I loved watching you grow and the value you have given me over the last 5 years is priceless. BTW - I finished my degree and at the top of my class, thanks to your videos and Make It Stick recommendation ❤
Wow am undergrad right now
Happy birthday, Ali. This video is an indication that you practice what you preach - focusing on enjoying the process as opposed to focusing on the goal.
Happy birthday Ali! 🎂 30 years is a nice milestone. Things change abit. Best wishes from Virginia, USA. Thanks for educating. Many more🎉
Happy 30th, Ali! I believe it is so amazing that we have this platform to be able to share these tips on this life journey we are all trying to navigate. You keep inspiring with each video and I thank you for that.Your view on making work feel more enjoyable has shifted the way I see life/work myself.
love watching the transformation throughout your journey- and how authentic you are and true to yourself and what actually makes you happy - not working for the sake of the cheque.
You have no idea how your each and every video has always given me hope and showed me a better way. I wish I could thank you one day for all that you keep doing for me even without knowing me❤❤❤❤
Happy Birthday Ali. I turned 33 today. I started watching your channel in your early days. So much to reflect!
PTYA Cohort 2 student here! I’m surprised to hear you say something about your phase of optimizing your content and losing that “authentic” self that was once in the beginning of the channel. Everyone has the right to experiment and change, but it’s wholesome to see that you’re taking your foot off the pressure of peak optimization.
I actually took notes when I was watching this video! It's been a long time since you posted such an insightful and fresh piece of content. (Not that the other recent ones were bad, but this one's just too good!) Thank you!
I look up to u and I'm almost turning 20. The fact that this video has genuine intentions to shared lessons of your life is priceless. I Hope u achieve to always relearn how to stay true to yourself ❤.
I don’t tend to leave comments but I really appreciated this video. I’ve been watching your videos for years now and always admired your eloquent speech and ideas and just passion for learning and figuring out life. I have to agree that for a period I stopped watching your videos because I felt they were lacking as you mentioned “soul” but I’m very happy to see that “you’re back” :)
Hey Ali, I’ve started following the channel recently, I don’t usually post comments on youtube, but I really appreciate how honest you are. Feels like you’re speaking from the heart and it’s so good to have an example of someone who reached their goals without any trace of toxic productivity.
I’d love to hear more about having a long list of goals but aiming to do 1-5 at a time. I really struggle with this :)
Happy Birthday, Ali! Thank you for sharing 20 profound lessons from your journey from 23 to 30. I love the valuable content you're sharing, especially the insight about choosing to be yourself rather than constantly chasing more.
In your next video, I'd love to hear about the sacrifices you've made to get where you are now. While it's clear you enjoy creating content, it would be valuable for those aspiring to be like you to understand the behind-the-scenes challenges and tips, so they know what they're signing up for.
Hey Ali! Happy birthday. Thank you for being an inspiration and your early videos on how to study for exams. The lesson I'm taking away from this one is to enjoy the journey and not care too much about the outcome. Please share more on how to be a person who is bias to action! Thank you!
Amazing, honest, and pure. I am a big fan of yours. It's so inspiring to see how much you grew as a person, it makes me want to move my ass for my seat and do something I want to do about my life to improve it. Thank you for sharing. Thank you for helping. My 30th birthday was for me a sad realization, that was hard to cope with/ it felt that the countdown started it's so refreshing to see your happiness and gratitude for your choices and your achievements. Keep up the good work Ali! 👍
I have been watching you from past 7 years or so and It feels great to look at you growing this good. and this documentary of reflecting back on personal and professional growth is a motivation for others. good job.
This is the genuine authentic smart Ali type video that made me follow you several years ago, thanks for this🙏🙏sharing truth heart to heart
can't believe i watched it from the start until the end without skipping anything THIS IS SUCH AN INTERESTING VIDEOOOO like its soo coool to flashback and see how you are back then vs now
Happy Birthday Ali, my lifetime friend. 🎉I will turn 30 in early July.
I do not see you as a UA-camr but a real and an honest friend.
In a world crowded with theories and people who fight to prove themselves and give their “only right” way of doing things and dealing with things, you are honest, realistic, you make sense to me.
Love the content Ali. You’ve been a huge inspiration of mine since I’m currently in the medical field and am working on growing a youtube channel.
Just want to say thank you for guidance and motivation to keep pushing forward.
Keep up the great content and looking forward to more. Cheers!
You're a very inspiring person, and quite honestly, you give me hope for the future.
Hope that good things can happen, and more importantly, that we can make them happen. If I had to describe you in one sentence, that would be: "Be the change you wish to see in the world".
Happy birthday!
Your content has genuinly changed my life. Thank you, Ali!
"It's ok to leave money on the table." is the one that resonates with me the most. Loved it six months ago. Love it still.
This is my first comment on UA-cam. The time was right, as this video was exactly what I needed. I find this video the most genuine and helpful and humble of all your content. Thank you!
Also turned 30 this year and have followed you for a long time. Congrats on your journey, you are a big inspiration! I would love to see more tips about helping and coaching others, so that I can do that in my local community. Thanks👍🏼
I’m 22, a recent college graduate, and I got my real estate license at 19, but I’ve been struggling to find my internal happiness. I’m starting to do real estate full-time. My mother is also an agent who got her license around the same time as me, and she’s killing it. Still, I’m struggling to find fun in the process of being an agent and someday making a business to become financially free. Every day, I feel disconnected from my work; I don’t feel like I’m good enough to be successful; I feel like the character traits I was given were not meant to be a successful in business, and I feel like time is going away so fast. I’m not sure if anyone else feels the same way or is going through these issues, but your lessons on having a bias toward action and, even more importantly, trying to figure out how to make the process fun have really changed my perspective on stuff.
Happy birthday Ali. You are such a blessing to me.
ALI calling out his OG viewers at the end , always connects with me , honestly we should be thanking you for the value you provide to our lives.
Happy Birthday Ali! What a great journey you've shared with us! I was literally getting emotional 2mins in, anyone?!
Happy birthday mate!
Thanks so much for all your advice over the years. You've definitely helped me an awful lot. And I'm looking forward to reading your book this summer to help me with my final year in my MPhys! 😊
You're amazing Ali, happy birthday!!
Video I'd like to watch next: Your tips on how to make the thing we are doing fun. Or how to change our perspective so that we work more joyfully.
I fall in the same trap over and over again (no bueno) where I take work too seriously and work on too many projects at once and then when I realize the work lost the fun it had initially I wonder if it is worth continuing, because, well, it's no longer fun.
I have your book at home to read next where I'm sure you explore this issue but a video would be great too 😁🙏🏻
Big fan of your work! I started watching your videos in 2019 when I wanted to learn how to study for exams and take notes on my iPad, all the best man!
I love your videos! You are so down to earth and authentic while provide extreme value. You deserve all of the success you have had and I hope you continue to influence the world around you!
What sets you apart from many other UA-camrs is your frequent reflection on your journey and your authenticity. I would love to see a series on entrepreneurship. You've talked about online businesses, which I appreciate. Could you also please discuss other types, such as getting into manufacturing businesses, if you think that suits your content? Additionally, it would be great to hear your thoughts on considering a career change in 30s (e.g., transitioning from science academia to industry/entrepreneurship without prior industry experience) and dealing with overcoming perfectionism. No matter how long your content is, we will watch it until the very last second. Thanks Ali! Stay blessed!!
Probably one of the most thoughtful and introspective videos I have watched on UA-cam.
Happy Belated Birthday to you!
Cheers💫
You definitely have my sub. This content is next level. For me Eledator was the turning point. Please keep doing what you do and keep being you, love it.
I love this video, It is the end of my school year and I am turning 20 in 5 months from now. I am also an og subscriber from the pandemic days. I really took my time this time and wrote down notes for a fresh start (and really reflected with myself with your questions) and hopefully apply this in my upcoming years.cheers Ali. Wish me luck
happy birthday,Ali!! keep going the way you enjoy
Happy birthday brother, I wish you even further success and happiness for the next 7 years 😁🙏🏼🙌🏼
Happy Birthday!! 🥳 So insightful and full of good advice. Some things seem so obvious, but we keep forgetting about them. Thank you for the reminders 😊
Personally, my life changed when I watched your "A Productive Day on Vacation in the Canary Islands" video, it became my new "comfort video" on UA-cam whenever I feel "off". I started working remotely around the world because of it and it and it even led me to the Canary Islands as well last year where I stayed 3 months (not very popular for us Canadians)! Now, I'm writing to you from Guadeloupe as I travel and work from the island! I live for those vlogs and wish you would pump them out (even the ones where you think they are boring, we truly love them I swear).
In 2017 I subscribed to your channel because I wanted to learn from you, to be like you, you were the mentor I never had , wanted to become a doctor like you, I remember you spoke so fast many people couldn't understand, you worked on it , tgats a sign of high intelligence , plus you were from Cambridge you told the world about the power of productivity , then your brothers podcast videos , your friends sheen gurreeb i follow her too , everything is flashing in front of me right now. It feels like I was with you on your journey , I remember you giving up your medical license, I was with you that time. Thanks for being my virtual mentor ❤ and my friend . You have given me many life lessons than anybody else could ever give. ❤ keep growing ali abdaal
This is amazing, Ali and a very Happy Birthday man! You have inspired me to push myself over the years. Keep growing and I hope to meet you someday!
Happy birthday Coach Ali 🎈 Wishing you a new year filled with blessings and peace 😊
I have only recently started watching your videos because one day I wanted to get out of the cycle of procrastination and feeling that my life is being wasted, and your videos along with some others from other UA-camrs have been helping me a lot. I am currently reading the millionaire fast lane and some other books that you recommended on the channel and I feel like I’ve gained a completely new understanding of life, time management and financial freedom. Thank you very much for all the work that you do
