Dan, you are such a gem of human being. I'm going through a transition at the moment and struggling inwardly and outwardly, somehow I stumbled upon your content and I'm finding so many answers for my personal and professional life. You inspire me to explore more and deeper, take actions and dare to fail. I'm so grateful for the great work you spread out to the world and man I love you genuinely. Will order your book to dive deeper.
10am - 2pm on a Sunday are my most fulfilling hours of the week. Church and worship with my family, lunch together with family and friends, and then back home to rest with each other. If you're not religious, it still seems like the perfect block to do something you find pure joy from when there is little chaos around.
As soon as he said that I thought, “Gee, if only there was something that consistently happened during that time that people say gives their lives meaning…”
Dan, while watching the video, I couldn't help but notice how you highlighted the importance of building systems over habits. This approach indeed creates a life-long action plan and brings clarity to our journey. Your insights on leveraging dopamine and creating a process in flow were truly enlightening! 🌟
The line you said about people not needing motivation, but clarity. Wow that hit deep. As someone who just came to this conclusion literally just a few days ago, this is so true. I was overwhelmed with the amount of work that needed to be done. Once I began setting and STICKING to a schedule, things got so much better after that.
🔑 The most important points from the video are: - **🔦 Intrinsic philosophy:** Taking something superficial and using it to create deeper meaning in life. - **🕯 Life as a dark room:** Finding candles (metaphorical sources of vision and direction) in life, but knowing that they will eventually burn out. - **🧠 Balancing order and chaos:** The human mind seeks clarity through ordered information, while avoiding psychic entropy (unordered state of mind). - **🔑 Clarity and fulfillment:** Clarity is essential for enjoyment, while fulfillment comes from self-generated and society-generated goals. - **🌉 Motivation and clarity:** Motivation is like standing on one side of a canyon, while clarity is the first plank of the bridge to the other side. - **🧠 Neurotransmitters and clarity:** Dopamine drives dreams, but sustainable long-term clarity comes from other neurotransmitters like serotonin, oxytocin, endorphins, and endocannabinoids. - **🧘 Mindfulness and intrinsic philosophy:** Practicing mindfulness and developing an intrinsic philosophy bring satisfaction, fulfillment, and enjoyment into life. - **🔮 Creating a meaningful life:** Creating an anti-vision to avoid future regret and an inspiring vision to strive for. - **📚 Self-education and skill acquisition:** Self-education is necessary to acquire skills and knowledge for personal growth and a better life. - **📝 Writing down interests and skills:** Writing down 10-20 specific interests, curiosities, or skills aligned with one's vision. - **🔍 Leveraging dopamine and pattern recognition:** Using dopamine and momentum to connect ideas, recognize patterns, and eliminate useless information. - **📈 Developing a strategy:** Zooming out, developing a strategy, and building a business to present one's perspective to millions. - **🎯 Goal setting and project development:** Breaking down the vision into goals, turning them into projects, and working on them daily. - **🌍 Real-world problem-solving:** Encountering real-world problems, conducting research to solve them, and applying the knowledge gained.
I normally watch videos sped up - but for this one I slowed it down! Thank YOU for your 🙌 wisdom. Also, when you notice the details, the Universe / Divinity communicates with you leading you to people, places, food etc that helps you in life. Speaking from personal experience.
Yep, I slowed it down a notch from my usual speed so I could make sure I digested the information. Unlike most people, he's already speaking at a decent speed and he's not belaboring a point so you hear it repeatedly. You need to catch it the first time around.
I've watched countless hours of guru talks. You make the most practical and actionable sense. As in the most philosophical step 1 step 2 procedures ever. Thanks!
Dan's 'A Full Guide To Reinvent Your Life (In 6-12 Months)' is a veritable tour-de-force in life transformation. What sets this apart from any run-of-the-mill self-help content is Dan's meticulous research and keen understanding of the human psyche. Every minute of the guide is crafted to engage, enlighten, and ultimately empower the viewer to enact tangible changes in their life. But it's not just the content that deserves applause-his video skills elevate the message to new heights. From crisp visuals and well-timed edits to the excellent pacing that keeps viewers engaged but never overwhelmed, Dan's video production techniques complement his content perfectly. It's a harmonious blend of substance and style, making complex concepts accessible and compelling. Watching his guide doesn't just give you information; it offers you a transformative experience.
I was like scrolling thru videos on UA-cam and I saw title like many others - first thing in my mind that occurred was ''Oh, one more scammy seller of his improvement program'' and then another thought came in ''give it a shot'' and I clicked and immediately I resonated with the video because it was hitting every single problem I have talked with my junger brother who is so focused man and he was telling me all this but he didn't know how to articulate it when I asked him questions for improvement. You explained it in a very systematic and understandable way. Thank you for doing that, I'll go now and write everything down.
“Life is like a dark room. On occasion, we find a candle so that we can see, but not for long. The candle provides vision and direction. But the flame will die out.” The words are filled with wisdom.
My son is sooooo good at picking out the subtle details of a song. He's always like, "Mom! mom! Listen to this part! They're saying things in the background."
When writing these down, I found that going through my list of who I look up to and gaining insight from there, really helps. Writing down what I admire about the people I look up to, and then writing how I can implement their practices into my daily life in my own unique way, really helps. I went through my subscriptions, the people I follow, the people who inspire me, and those in my inner circle. I also found that many of their practices are already practices I experience on a daily/weekly basis. We are not so far off from living the life we want as we may think.
Great video as usual. Wrote down a few notes from this - It’s better to pursue something superficial than it is to do nothing with your life Literally the key to life is just ZOOMING OUT and not being focused on what might you pleasure right now Life itself is a practice and most people are not showing up Goals and projects provide boundaries for your learning and creativity START then, learn
Dan has done such a good job pointing our one MASSIVE problem: That so many people spend their lives distracted by fear and confusion. In so many different facets he teaches us to become our own brands and that we can creatively take inspiration from the people we want to be like, and turn our ideal lifestyles into a reality. The reality is that education is moving online and into the hands of creators who speak from EXPERIENCE. If we truly dedicate ourselves to documenting our philosophical, spiritual, financial and really all realization as they happen, we ourselves, become and infinite reservoir of content and value. Thank you, Dan.
I found your channel a few days ago and can only be thankful for having found it. This video impacted me in such a heavy way. I analyzed, dissected and studied it as far as possible in this short time. Thank you so much for your effort. This brought so much clarity to my life. I can only imagine how much my life will improve when continuing consuming this content. Not only consume, finally getting things done. I just finished 2,5h of constant work trying to grab every piece of information and this as a ADHD person, not native english speaker. I am just blown away. thanks man.
I actually was prompted yesterday to write in my notebook (these things have happened for the past 3 weeks now). What I wrote in that journal is what became my podcast episode, which otherwise would have been skipped this week---had it not been for that prompt. So, I did the journaling between 7-745 am. And throughout the day (I have two kiddos, and work part-time, so this is what I do) began the process of typing it out---making it make sense, collecting other thoughts as I had them. Much to my surprise, I ended up with 6 pages or a 24 minute podcast!!! You'd be amazed if you listen, and pay attention to signs and signals of God, Universe, Source whatever you believe, how much work can be done to fulfill your dream. I literally haven't had to force a single podcast episode in 3 weeks, I've been in a flow state and it comes naturally now!
The first part of the video when you talked about when we're not doing something we think about death, and the universe exploding, etc... That really hit for me because I am currently watching this video at 10:10 trying to go to sleep like I always do because I cannot sleep without noise to distract me from my existential dread.
not long ago i heard a psychiatrist talk about the difference between dopamine and serotonin and its exactly the same as mentioned here. true value indeed thank you very much!
Wow this video was 🤯🤯🤯 This is my first time watching one of your videos. I constantly watch videos every single day around the topics of self improvement, personal growth, etc, so I’m well accustomed to that space, but this video was literally like next level. I’m gonna have to rewatch this 3-4x to try and digest the amount of wisdom here, thank you!
This is my first time hearing about you and listening to you and I am absolutely amazed! This video can be a long seminar/webinar and you would make a fortune on it! So much value! Thank you 💜
The gas prices example is exactly how I started to look at my life. I started thinking just like how he said in that example. Taking control and changing the things I don’t like
Yes! I have been thinking about this for a long time now. I'm the sort of person who makes a change when I really want something and I go after it until I get it. I know what I want and I feel like I'm in control of my life (even if it takes a while to get what I want). On the other hand, I have a friend who seems to be a victim of life. She will be unhappy with her circumstances for a very long time before she changes them (if at all). Sometimes I want to give her a good shake and say, "Then do something about it! Make a plan right now!" Life lives her, not the other way around. She floats around like a dandelion seed, going wherever she is pushed by the wind, never realizing she's a bird who can fly anywhere she wants, wind be damned.
Man, if I could’ve watched these videos 25 years ago when I was just starting as an adult I can imagine where I’d be right now. Everything you speak to is what I aspire to be but your blueprint is just so very clear and I have to thank you for this channel. Little by little it’s changing me.
This video, one of the best on the internet! Thankyou for putting this information out in a video in such an orderly way, you have helped me more than any of these self help books could ever have!
Love your videos Dan. At first I wasnt sure but find them so practical and useful. I'm listening almost every day. Between you, Robert Greene, Dr Peterson and Andrew Hubberman. I find so much information that's useful. I'm in my early 30s and after having fucked up a ton of opportunities and felt like I squandered a lot of things in my life, I'm trying to get back to who I am and realize what I want again in my life. I'm moving towards different things now. Trying to make money online and attempting to figure out how I can create a life for myself that I want.
Dan Koe is the teacher we all never had growing up. I am grateful to you with all my heart. It's difficult to execute this and at times I don't want to listen to you. But you are like that mirror or reality check that we need everyday
This is high level S tier wisdom. Thanks for sharing with us. I appreciated your take on dialectics or being able to hold multiple truths at once- i often have difficulty explaining that. Will be spreading these tools in my mens group work-- much thanks brother 🙏
This is amazing content and exactly what I've been looking for. I already started implementing some of the tips mentioned but it's incredibly helpful to have everything laid out in a framework like this. One thing I think would be helpful to add is to write down a list of everything that is important to you in life - things that you want to make sure you continue to have time for or make time for. You don't want to lose sight of important things like spending quality time with friends and family because you're so blinded by chasing your vision. Continue to include the great things you already have as part of your vision while chasing the amazing things you want. In a recent time in my life, I had achieved my highest goal and did so in a much shorter time than anticipated. I was grateful but my mistake was not setting a new goal. I lived aimlessly and began regressing in my skills and life overall. I developed constant anxiety and lost all motivation. Don't make the same mistake I made and continue to set new goals while being grateful for what you already have. If you don't know where to start, this video is a great place to do just that.
I really enjoy your videos and instagram contents. As someone who also enjoys writing and personal growth/ spirituality, I’m inspired by the way you communicate your ideas. Thank you 😊
Yesterday I was asked on a gaming stream, which game I am actually playing. I answered: non. I use my time for reading, learning, creating and thinking. So I'm leveling myself instead of a virtual character. I enjoy this much more. Years before, I was playing games most of my time. I even worked as a programmer and wanted to create games (maybe I do this one day). On the side, I always learned or created something new. I never went to parties, therefore I had the time to do this. I need to create things from and for myself, or my soul will slowly die. This was a hard lesson to learn. Today, some people are wondering, how I can do all the things I can do. I can't image to do it any other way anymore. For me, it's normal. Thanks for creating these videos. They gave me another interesting perspective.
Reality is the eternal NOW. I so resonate with this message & apprectiate the clarity you instill in the message. You are a beacon of light that shines through all the muck.
110% relatable with my experiences. You just gave words to them in a most precise way that I couldn't object even a single phrase that you utterred. Worth more than attending 6 months of University lectures.
🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation: 00:00 🕯️ Life is a balance between order and chaos; clarity comes from ordered information in the mind. 01:25 🧘 Meditation, metacognition, and learning to be alone can help order your mind for enjoyment. 03:22 🌟 Sustainable clarity comes from self-generated and society-generated goals aligned with conscious and unconscious futures. 03:51 💡 Motivation is essential, but clarity is the first step to achieving your goals. 09:41 🤹 Enjoyment comes from investing attention in long-term goals, while pleasure is short-term and outcome-focused; choose your dopamine sources wisely. 19:47 🤔 People often choose to vote rather than change their lives, but zooming out and taking control of your future is more powerful. 20:46 📝 To bring your vision to life, set clear goals and turn them into tangible projects with daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly milestones. 21:16 🚀 Start building and learning even if you don't know what you're doing; real-world problems will guide your learning process. 21:44 💡 Encountering and solving problems in your projects is the best way to learn and build momentum. Made with HARPA AI
00:00 🕯 Life is likened to a dark room, where finding candles symbolizes brief clarity in chaos, prompting movement with faith. 03:29 🧭 Most people need clarity more than motivation, as clarity lays the foundation for progress. 09:30 💡 Enjoyment stems from investing attention, while pleasure comes from spending it; choose dopamine sources wisely. 10:30 🔍 Develop an "anti-vision" to realize what you don't want, aiding in decision-making for a more purposeful life. 12:47 🌟 Craft a clear vision for the future to guide daily actions and make better decisions in alignment with goals. 14:19 🎓 Learn and build continuously, utilizing self-education to acquire skills and experience for progress. 15:29 📝 Write down specific skills, interests, or topics relevant to your vision to drive daily actions and focus. 17:31 🔄 Leverage dopamine through pattern recognition and momentum to stay engaged and make progress in alignment with your goals.
Life is a balance between chaos and clarity; chaos is default, clarity comes from ordered information. People often feel discontent when alone with their thoughts, seeking structure and activities to avoid psychic entropy.
Dan,your words are new and powerful.new and meaningful...i met with accident,mild head injury....im not able to follow you in video....i subscribed your channel...can you please teach me in person????
This kinda blew my mind today (as I was ingesting exo cannabanoids in my back yard while listening to you 😂). Zooming out. Been advocating that for a while now and living it to varying degrees of sustainability. As a stalled out psychotherapist, I feel like it’s kind of cute to pretend like I have a choice…. I can’t operate in alignment with my personal philosophy and have an assigned career in an ant-human system. I have to do my own healing thing in some kind of system-adjacent way I haven’t created yet. I’m also in the thick of motherhood and humbled by the process of carrying, birthing, nourishing and supporting tiny humans. I have somehow forgotten my selfhood in the endeavor of motherhood- something I never thought would happen to me. Your delivery has a directness that I can really appreciate and I subscribed out of curiosity.
hi, i just decided to make an app on mobile, this is an personal project i work on at morning before going to work. then i saw you video, your idea is align with my thought, thank you very much. I'm your new fan, by the way i am an ITNJ in mbti test, i wonder if you have the same personality as i am.
“Most people don’t need motivation. They need clarity”. I haven’t had something resonate with me like this for a very long time
You might want to read Atomic Habits by James Clear, there is some phrase like that and overall the book is spectacular for this topic)
@@dianag.1997 thanks for the suggestion
Absolutely!
Fasting helps a lot with clarity
Words have said
"Play at your level, but try to make it to the next level." Love it
Dan, you are such a gem of human being. I'm going through a transition at the moment and struggling inwardly and outwardly, somehow I stumbled upon your content and I'm finding so many answers for my personal and professional life. You inspire me to explore more and deeper, take actions and dare to fail. I'm so grateful for the great work you spread out to the world and man I love you genuinely. Will order your book to dive deeper.
My sentiments as well.
10am - 2pm on a Sunday are my most fulfilling hours of the week. Church and worship with my family, lunch together with family and friends, and then back home to rest with each other. If you're not religious, it still seems like the perfect block to do something you find pure joy from when there is little chaos around.
As soon as he said that I thought, “Gee, if only there was something that consistently happened during that time that people say gives their lives meaning…”
Amen! Best part of the week! 🎉❤
Dan, while watching the video, I couldn't help but notice how you highlighted the importance of building systems over habits. This approach indeed creates a life-long action plan and brings clarity to our journey. Your insights on leveraging dopamine and creating a process in flow were truly enlightening! 🌟
Such as the 5 times daily prayer
@@dea369bahri7 what do u mean ?
R.a.s. 😊
It's not the motivation that drives you. It’s CLARITY.
Thanks for the lesson.
btw this line is from a book called Atomic Habits
The line you said about people not needing motivation, but clarity. Wow that hit deep. As someone who just came to this conclusion literally just a few days ago, this is so true. I was overwhelmed with the amount of work that needed to be done. Once I began setting and STICKING to a schedule, things got so much better after that.
🔑 The most important points from the video are:
- **🔦 Intrinsic philosophy:** Taking something superficial and using it to create deeper meaning in life.
- **🕯 Life as a dark room:** Finding candles (metaphorical sources of vision and direction) in life, but knowing that they will eventually burn out.
- **🧠 Balancing order and chaos:** The human mind seeks clarity through ordered information, while avoiding psychic entropy (unordered state of mind).
- **🔑 Clarity and fulfillment:** Clarity is essential for enjoyment, while fulfillment comes from self-generated and society-generated goals.
- **🌉 Motivation and clarity:** Motivation is like standing on one side of a canyon, while clarity is the first plank of the bridge to the other side.
- **🧠 Neurotransmitters and clarity:** Dopamine drives dreams, but sustainable long-term clarity comes from other neurotransmitters like serotonin, oxytocin, endorphins, and endocannabinoids.
- **🧘 Mindfulness and intrinsic philosophy:** Practicing mindfulness and developing an intrinsic philosophy bring satisfaction, fulfillment, and enjoyment into life.
- **🔮 Creating a meaningful life:** Creating an anti-vision to avoid future regret and an inspiring vision to strive for.
- **📚 Self-education and skill acquisition:** Self-education is necessary to acquire skills and knowledge for personal growth and a better life.
- **📝 Writing down interests and skills:** Writing down 10-20 specific interests, curiosities, or skills aligned with one's vision.
- **🔍 Leveraging dopamine and pattern recognition:** Using dopamine and momentum to connect ideas, recognize patterns, and eliminate useless information.
- **📈 Developing a strategy:** Zooming out, developing a strategy, and building a business to present one's perspective to millions.
- **🎯 Goal setting and project development:** Breaking down the vision into goals, turning them into projects, and working on them daily.
- **🌍 Real-world problem-solving:** Encountering real-world problems, conducting research to solve them, and applying the knowledge gained.
Thanks for your effort- much appreciated.

Congrats on being one of the few UA-camrs that I watch at 0.75 speed because there's such a density of good, thought provoking information.
Great video as usual. Wrote down a few notes from this -
It’s better to pursue something superficial than it is to do nothing with your life
Literally the key to life is just ZOOMING OUT and not being focused on what might you pleasure right now
Life itself is a practice and most people are not showing up
Goals and projects provide boundaries for your learning and creativity
START then, learn
🤯🤯🧘🏾♀️♥️ thank you for honoring your gift in making this video!
Your videos are in another level of detail. The terms and conceps is somethings that I have never seen before. So thank you Dan and keep learning.
Thank you very much Dan !
Sometimes we live things which are completely upsetting our lives and this video is very helpful !
Have an amazing day !
The fact that this deep content itself is free shows how great!
Underatted this is such a genius level of break down
I love the anti-vision. Even if we don't know exactly what we want we can look at what we DON'T want to be. Thank you for this.

The first part of the video when you talked about when we're not doing something we think about death, and the universe exploding, etc... That really hit for me because I am currently watching this video at 10:10 trying to go to sleep like I always do because I cannot sleep without noise to distract me from my existential dread.

A video full of clarity without motivations.
This is one of the most important and useful youtube channel I came across, thank you.
Usually, I avoid videos like these, but u have some good points here. Thank u.
The gas prices example is exactly how I started to look at my life. I started thinking just like how he said in that example. Taking control and changing the things I don’t like
Yes! I have been thinking about this for a long time now. I'm the sort of person who makes a change when I really want something and I go after it until I get it. I know what I want and I feel like I'm in control of my life (even if it takes a while to get what I want). On the other hand, I have a friend who seems to be a victim of life.

"Nothing is more important than your own goals". Amen.
Love your newsletter and being part of your community Dan. 😊
Love the earlier upload! I look forward to these every week. Thanks Dan! Timing couldn’t be better.

This guy is a genius. All his concepts and systems of thinking are great. Watch, take notes, re-watch, more notes and then implement.
I agree. Also, his explanation is direct and concise. He gets the concept and comprehensive meanings right.

i love the way this guy explains shit, really hits the nail on the head
Dan Koe Is an Angel on Earth❣️💥💙
Thank you so much for your videos. They are helping me get into a journey of self-improvement in a concise way that fits with my mentality
amazing content- in depth and in easy to digest form- did not pause and was sucked in and found it to be great
This guy is absolutely amazing.
that's mindblowing! love your videos, they goes straight to the point ... and nobodyelse is talking about it ! That's great
"mindfulness in detail" reminds me of a line from a poem, "to see heaven in a wildflower..."
I have been reading your book and its changing my life
This is amazing content and exactly what I've been looking for. I already started implementing some of the tips mentioned but it's incredibly helpful to have everything laid out in a framework like this. One thing I think would be helpful to add is to write down a list of everything that is important to you in life - things that you want to make sure you continue to have time for or make time for. You don't want to lose sight of important things like spending quality time with friends and family because you're so blinded by chasing your vision. Continue to include the great things you already have as part of your vision while chasing the amazing things you want.
In a recent time in my life, I had achieved my highest goal and did so in a much shorter time than anticipated. I was grateful but my mistake was not setting a new goal. I lived aimlessly and began regressing in my skills and life overall. I developed constant anxiety and lost all motivation. Don't make the same mistake I made and continue to set new goals while being grateful for what you already have. If you don't know where to start, this video is a great place to do just that.
These are GEMS. EVERY WORD. Thought provoking leads to questioning life leads to transformation.
Thanks for your tips Dan, you are the man! You have no idea of how much you're helping a poor brazilian guy to grow up in his life ♥
Wooooooooow Ruth you keep on giving us your best ❤
I really enjoy your videos and instagram contents. As someone who also enjoys writing and personal growth/ spirituality, I’m inspired by the way you communicate your ideas. Thank you 😊

A mahatma. Golden words..every touched my being.Salutation sir.
Yesterday I was asked on a gaming stream, which game I am actually playing. I answered: non. I use my time for reading, learning, creating and thinking. So I'm leveling myself instead of a virtual character. I enjoy this much more. Years before, I was playing games most of my time. I even worked as a programmer and wanted to create games (maybe I do this one day). On the side, I always learned or created something new. I never went to parties, therefore I had the time to do this. I need to create things from and for myself, or my soul will slowly die. This was a hard lesson to learn. Today, some people are wondering, how I can do all the things I can do.
I can't image to do it any other way anymore. For me, it's normal.
Thanks for creating these videos. They gave me another interesting perspective.
I ❤ and value my free time! I ❤ Sundays 😊
I’m liking this dude more and more. Spot on content
Reality is the eternal NOW. I so resonate with this message & apprectiate the clarity you instill in the message.
You are a beacon of light that shines through all the muck.
110% relatable with my experiences. You just gave words to them in a most precise way that I couldn't object even a single phrase that you utterred.
Worth more than attending 6 months of University lectures.
Wow this content vibrates like what’s actually legit about anything

What People Need Is Balance In Their Life.
Life is a balance between chaos and clarity; chaos is default, clarity comes from ordered information. People often feel discontent when alone with their thoughts, seeking structure and activities to avoid psychic entropy.
I like the way your mind works
Actually 15 years in a job becomes my 'training ground' for starting my own business

@15:29 is the start of this video. Thanks Dan.
Love your videos, such a deep thinker
Thank you Dan
This kinda blew my mind today (as I was ingesting exo cannabanoids in my back yard while listening to you 😂).
Zooming out. Been advocating that for a while now and living it to varying degrees of sustainability.
As a stalled out psychotherapist, I feel like it’s kind of cute to pretend like I have a choice…. I can’t operate in alignment with my personal philosophy and have an assigned career in an ant-human system.
I have to do my own healing thing in some kind of system-adjacent way I haven’t created yet.
I’m also in the thick of motherhood and humbled by the process of carrying, birthing, nourishing and supporting tiny humans.
I have somehow forgotten my selfhood in the endeavor of motherhood- something I never thought would happen to me.
Your delivery has a directness that I can really appreciate and I subscribed out of curiosity.
thank you for this meaningful video, i think i need to rewatch this soon to understand more what you said
“We think we want freedom what we want is autonomy’
You just gave me the therapy i was going to spend a lot of money for. Thanks
I just did the anti-vision exercise! Loved it
