I can't believe in this coincidence, Dan. For perhaps last two weeks I've been going through a real battle within me in that exact topic. As a software engineer I could see a decline in my productivity and very depressive moods due to various "cheap dopamine" sources. I'm also a fitness enthusiast which helps me to break the cycle, and just few days ago I decided to take aggressive action to take back control - I deleted all UA-cam history, turned off "auto-play" and unsubscribed many channels to start "fresh", which is the curating you mentioned. I also printed a calendar for next two months and I write down daily my deep-work hours. The message you are spreading is so important and I am so glad to see people trying to raise awareness on these topics.
Interesting, I just got into learning coding as well & it's hard for me to stay motivated every day. Yesterday I also deleted & turned off my YT history. Now I can focus on my subscriptions & not on the algorithm generated feed, it can be very distracting. And that's how I ended up watching this video today.
I’ve been DIGESTING your content for a few weeks now and it really is a WEDGE of sanity and SUBSTANCE within the flitters of social media… it actually take me some time to take on everything you’re saying because it’s so packed. Really great video man thanks.
I started watching this video and a few minutes later I took my phone, restarted the video, and began taking notes. It seemed extremely important to fully understand and not miss anything. Edit: This video has lasting effects. It changed my life. I cut off all the "fast food", and I suddenly wanted to do stuff that I had been postponing for months, even years! And I have very little urge to go back to these distractions for longer than a few minutes a day.
The whole 30 minutes can be summarized in two points: 1. Focus on long format content that challenges and enriches your perspective. 2. Implement the knowledge you learnt by working on a meaningful project and creating value. There, you don't have to watch the video now. yw
What's more impressive than Dan's lack of emotional expression... his ability to communicate a wide-ranging spectrum of information. Love the channel man.
I disagree about the emotional part. His voice is very empathic and calming, very pleasant to listen to. Instead of an absence of emotion in his tone which is actually anxiety inducing - it's more like a controlled emotion.
Thank you for this important message and shining light on how chasing cheap dopamine hits affects us individually and can shape our collective future. It is concerning how quickly our brains adapt to these dopamine-driven algorithms, and it's so refreshing to hear someone advocate for meaningful learning and useful creative output, and you are a perfect example of it. Your message about being intentional creators rather than passive consumers really resonates. You're right - we either architect our own lives or let algorithms architect it for us. This reminder to curate content we're exposing ourselves so our society can continue evolving is so important, and I hope your video finds its way into the echo chambers of those who really need this message.
It’s time to take back our skills of focus and attention~ No more falling for cheap instant gratification, but rising in personal and societal strength~ We can do this!
It's all about fast, quick, low retention, clout, looking or feeling cool. We are truly going backwards but there still are the good and valuable out here. Just like you my man. Stay Uncommon!
I think people now realized being chronically online is bad that's why we seeing digital camera, magazines and physical media slowly making a comeback especially among gen z. On the other hand, being online now, we are bombarded with too many personal opinion and young people having hard times to differentiate something that applied to everyone or just your own personal experiences. That's why we felt overwhelming and more divided now. It's sad though.
Weed is the fast food of mindfulness and introspection. Thanks for the awesome analogy. I will remind myself of this before considering indulging in my vices! Thanks for showing us all the truth🔥🔥
Thank you for validating a believe I came up with in my 20s! I always refer to the appreciation of boredom bu stating "boredom us a blessing" exactly for the reasons described. If you allow yourself to sit in it you come up with the wildest ideas.
It's also one reason I don't use online productivity system. Paper and pen is king in my world. It's one less screen time to deal with. I'm surrounded by too much dopamine already, ads, social, media, fast paced living, it's all too much for my HSP mind. Thanks for yet another insightful video Dan 👍
You should do a mindset for people working a 9-5. It’s ambitious and all, but majority of us have to make ends meet. I quit the freelance world recently because of it
Cal Newport's idea of building "career capital" for me seems quite valid. It might seem slow, especially if you want to change field or expand, but it is sustainable
Thanks for your videos. I'm an undergrad and your channel really motivated me to get away from the repetitive routine of college and has inspired me to think outside the past.
You really deserve all the success you have, your content is not only interesting but also can change people's lives. My journey into becoming a content creator myself is also being aware of this things and the more I consume, the less I am aware of reality. It's like, I switch off. This video is very accurate and helped me understand better. Thank you 🎉
very intrespective. I've always known the concepts of centropy and entropy but never knew these labels existed till now. I've always just called them cheap happiness or earned joy.
Agency is a key topic across various fields today, from economics to AI. It deserves greater attention, particularly regarding its aspects and significance within the many multi-scale systems that surround us.
The problem is not really any of these things, but lack of understanding how your default consciousness works and that you lived in this autopilot mode almost every second of your life
The whole 30 minutes can be summarized in two points: 1. Focus on long format content that challenges and enriches your perspective. 2. Implement the knowledge you learnt by working on a meaningful project and creating value. (copied comment from someone else)
Great messages! They remind me of the concept of the Aeons-Isis (c. 2400 BCE), Osiris (c. 2400 BCE - 1904 CE), and Horus (1904 - Present)-which outline humanity's evolution. The Aeon of Isis celebrated nature and the feminine (birth and growth), the Aeon of Osiris emphasized structure and sacrifice (patriarchy and cycles of life), and now the Aeon of Horus embodies individualism, innovation, and balance. It's fascinating how these stages align with personal and societal growth! I wonder if you considered them when writing this script. Regards!
I think assosciating matriarchy-patriarchy and other social shifts due to some objective darwinian traits is deep misunderstanding of how societies are build and who gains power and how they maintain it. Soscieties are not build due to objective arguments but rather due to policies that in most of the history prioritize the wealthy in control of the power.
This might be a dumb question but: of these techno-economic bases why were women considered as deities of the horticultural age & why weren't men of those times involved in horticulture with women ? What were they engaged in ?
The answer isn't to detox less, but to try to "dopamine detox" more. Because you can't "dopamine detox" since its a neurotransmitter literally needed to move. Thus to "dopamine detox" is literally to reprioritize the things in your life.
I wonder if the cause and effect were flipped between deities and food production would paint a more accurate picture. The inspiration for the technology has to exist before the technology is built.

Thank you for your videos.. . Crypto education is what the world needs the most right now. I don’t think that buy and hold is a valid investment strategy anymore. Not too diluted and to a degree, follow Sophia’s trading ideas and signal tips for your portfolio growth and aggressiveness. She is a woman who has not only taught me what the cryptocurrency trading world looks like but a secret to uplift my finance. Buying crypto and waiting for the price to shoot up is not the best way to invest in the market but buying and trading is. Sophia Haney’s trade signaIs does the heavy lifting, generating competitive returns for crypto traders and investors in the form of money and peace of mind. Time in the market vs. timing the market. If you keep that mentality as an investor, you will stay calm during the storm! Within some months I was making a lot more money and have continued on that same path...
Can't share much here, I take guidance from ‘Sophia E Haney’ a renowned figure in her industry with over two decades of work experience. I'd suggest you research her further on the web.
I agree that there are strategies that could be put in place for solid gains regardless of economy or market condition, but such executions are usually carried out by investment experts or advisors with experience…
Love the video Dan. How would you recommend one find that meaningful project? I watched your recent video on purpose as well, but for the life of me I have been unable to come to any meaningful things in life? For the past few months I've jumped between 10+ different projects and couldnt stick to any of them. What's the secret sauce?
Please guys i want to ask, i bought now Dan Koe's Kortex Course, Im trying to start youtube channel and wanted to learn from him how to write scripts, do you reccomend me to also buy 2 hour writer course?
I bought the course and i must say i love Dan Koe as a person and as a youtuber, but that course is actually worst course i ever bought its so hard for someone new to start doing something with this program and dan koes informations on it.
I found your video very interesting; for the most part I agree about the points towards technology but some of your points towards historical aspects seem a little swayed. There is new evidence about hunter a gather societies. A 2020 study published in Science Advances analyzed a 9,000-year-old burial in the Andes. The remains of a young woman were found alongside a hunter’s toolkit, challenging the idea that hunting was exclusively a male domain. Similar evidence has been uncovered in other parts of the world, suggesting women actively participated in hunting. Ethnographic studies of contemporary hunter-gatherer societies, like the Hadza in Tanzania, show a more fluid division of labor, with women contributing to hunting in certain contexts and men participating in gathering (Wood & Marlowe, 2013). The concept of rigid gender roles appears to be a cultural construct rather than a universal rule. In prehistoric societies, survival likely depended on flexibility and shared responsibilities, rather than strictly divided tasks.
Always great to have new perspectives. I love it when someone reinforces outside perspectives because it's like a daily reminder to not narrow our thinking, to focus on binomial distributions and not binomial dispositions! I almost got defensive and asked why you had to respond to the video like this, but you could be making a point with a few breadcrumbs; all I need to do is get my head out of potential echo chambers and search. Thanks for _your_ insights. I wonder how it factors into the video, but nonetheless times have changed to a great extent with at least technological innovation and game theory. What do you think this has to do with game-theory as described in this video, if you have the time on your hands? If you don't I'll keep this in mind when thinking about how far we've come.
@@internetscavanger6746 Hey, and thank you for the thoughtful reply. I do appreciate the opportunity to reflect on this. I was more curious myself, as these new findings about gender roles in ancient societies could connect to broader themes like game theory and the video's exploration. From my perspective, game theory provides a useful lens to explore how societal roles evolve and adapt based on survival strategies and incentives. For example, if early humans operated in flexible, situational roles, it suggests that cooperative strategies often took precedence over rigid hierarchies in ensuring group survival. This aligns with a game-theoretic framework where mutual benefit can outweigh individual dominance in certain scenarios. I think these findings challenge us to revisit assumptions about progress. If societal norms historically allowed for greater fluidity in roles based on context and necessity, it might suggest that rigid hierarchies, like those solidified during the agrarian era, weren’t inevitable. Perhaps understanding these dynamics can help us better navigate the systems we create today. What's your thoughts? :) Do you see parallels, or did I just have too much energy drink and got over stimulated 😂
Hey Dan which book did you reffered to for this video on the techno economic history? The idea sounds interesting to me.. So I want to go deeper into it
Social media addiction is real and it is so sad to see everybody staring at their phones, almost like a slot machine at a casino with random peoples post, opinions, outburst of enthusiasm/positivity or disgust/negativity. Our brains were not made with the cognitive capacity to taken all this infinite information not to mention that it's not even relevant to our lives or our future. The hours that people spend on social media will total years cumulatively. imagine all the things that could've done instead with their time and human potential and energy! I mean, what is gonna be sad about these people in their eulogy? That they spent most of their days scrolling, spectating, and consuming social media, only fans, video games, Instagram, and porn ? It is really pathetic . Companies are ready to take advantage of that cheap dopamine, intermediate gratification. a lot of these people have other addictions to drugs, alcohol, and shopping online I guess
Hey Dan , I have a question. Do you think it is okay that I try to make videos on self improvement even though I am young and still learning on how to self improve ? Or should I learn as much as I can and then start posting once I have a really good understanding like yourself ?
I'm not Dan but do it now! Document and share your progress. Your experience, insight and lessons can help others regardless of age. Just be honest, this is my experience or journey and don't try to be a fake guru.
One question that I would like to ask in part just to play devil's advocate is what is the purpose of meaning? What I mean is to what extent is it important that our pursuits have some sort of deeper meaning or profound important to ourselves and others? It is possible to live a "happy" life where you are just going through the motions or does one have to have a sense of meaning that drives them and defines their purpose?

Hey Dan which book did you reffered to for this video on the techno economic history? The idea sounds interesting to me.. So I want to go deeper into it
Going to need some citations….
Social media addiction is real and it is so sad to see everybody staring at their phones, almost like a slot machine at a casino with random peoples post, opinions, outburst of enthusiasm/positivity or disgust/negativity. Our brains were not made with the cognitive capacity to taken all this infinite information not to mention that it's not even relevant to our lives or our future. The hours that people spend on social media will total years cumulatively. imagine all the things that could've done instead with their time and human potential and energy! I mean, what is gonna be sad about these people in their eulogy? That they spent most of their days scrolling, spectating, and consuming social media, only fans, video games, Instagram, and porn ?
It is really pathetic . Companies are ready to take advantage of that cheap dopamine, intermediate gratification. a lot of these people have other addictions to drugs, alcohol, and shopping online I guess
Dan plz make a video about loneliness
bro you look like mike from breaking bad
Hey Dan , I have a question. Do you think it is okay that I try to make videos on self improvement even though I am young and still learning on how to self improve ? Or should I learn as much as I can and then start posting once I have a really good understanding like yourself ?
I'm not Dan but do it now! Document and share your progress. Your experience, insight and lessons can help others regardless of age. Just be honest, this is my experience or journey and don't try to be a fake guru.
This points are from Adlerian psychology
One question that I would like to ask in part just to play devil's advocate is what is the purpose of meaning? What I mean is to what extent is it important that our pursuits have some sort of deeper meaning or profound important to ourselves and others? It is possible to live a "happy" life where you are just going through the motions or does one have to have a sense of meaning that drives them and defines their purpose?
The meaning of life is to live.
The need to have something to look forward to…without that…it all seems pointless and unnecessary
from the point of this video I guess money and selling others self improvement courses
@@arkadiusztypkiewicz6809 🤣👍
Dan you’re a fucking genius
Has anyone purchased the One-Person Business Launchpad course as yet. What are your thoughts?
The classic Big Mac is tried and tested. I don’t need any new renditions, it is the perfect salt, fat & carb ratio. PS - for those of you that get it, we’re living in a simulation, so none of this matters, really. 🐇🎞️🐇
