I have to say- I just recently discovered your work and it is very direct and unambiguous. I am 62 yo and working towards creating my own niche online and get out of healthcare. I feel like there are so many younger people online who try to portray themselves as experts without having done the work or have very limited life experiences. You are a very wise and visionary young man. Totally refreshing in the online space. Thank you so much for this work! 🙏🏻 ❤
I appreciate that Jennifer. I understand where they're coming from with positioning as experts... they feel like they have to. The contradictory thing is that they will be able to help / sell more with brutal honesty with where they are at and how they can start helping
@@DanKoeTalks I agree - it is the nature of the times. I actually admire most the ones that are honest about where they are and invite others on the journey with them ! More authentic 🙏🏻❤️
I agree wholeheartedly. I'm 55 yo with over thirty years of experience in my field, and I still don't consider myself an expert, but instead always learning and fine tuning. I've been working on shifting my perspective that three decades really does carry value and wisdom. And while I respect the inexperienced's fresh perspective, they most likely only have the highlights around the subject, not decades of actually living it. And very importantly, I'd be remiss if I didn't mention that the fresh perspective is just as valuable as the experienced.
@@DanKoeTalks Hi Dan, thank goodness that I found you! Real talk is what I hear without the nonsense. People just want to make a fast buck. Thank you for telling like it is. It really puts my faith back into people and the online business.
the youth have answers. There's wisdom in age and also wisdom in the youth. Very important to see things from a new perspective, and to also learn what has been done before.
Yo Dan, just wanted to say thank you for triggering a paradigm shift in my thinking..
In the last couple of months I completely 180'd from: "I want to build huge ass businesses and build out bases all over the world" to: "I want to optimize my life for freedom and flexibilty with just a handful of close friends, so I can focus on health, creativity & family".
Thanks for being the spark of my own solopreneurship journey. Hope to learn a lot more from you man👊
Dude. I just watched your 2nd to last video you posted (99%)
Amazing cinematography. Great story telling. Well done.
I guess no matter where you're at on your journey, you're still trying to improve.
Even you.
I just subscribed. Looking forward to following along.
Me too. 🕊🦋
This 🎯
That’s what’s most important
A unique problem I've noticed is that, even with such great content, people won't start anything. I use to be on the same boat, I'd watch self help, business, philosophical etc videos and noticed, it has become a source of entertainment for me rather than something that's actually taking me forward. Motion vs Action as James Clear would say.
What truly brings about change is action. While plans, ideas, and intentions are important, change can only be achieved through putting them into practice. Only by taking proactive measures and putting in effort can we attain our goals and change our lives.
However, action is not always easy or natural. Many people may encounter obstacles and challenges such as procrastination, lack of motivation, fear, and uncertainty. To overcome these obstacles, we can take the following actions:
1. Develop specific plans and goals to better organize time and resources and achieve objectives more effectively.
2. Establish good habits and behavior patterns to improve self-discipline and efficiency, such as exercising every morning, eating regularly, and checking emails regularly.
3. Seek motivation and inspiration by communicating with others, seeking feedback and support, and finding role models.
4. Overcome fear and uncertainty by taking small steps, seeking help and support, and trying new methods and experiences.
In summary, truly achieving change requires taking proactive action and overcoming various obstacles and challenges. By taking determined steps, developing good plans and goals, taking proactive action, and overcoming fear and uncertainty, we can achieve real change.
I am and have been here for the last 2 years. Thank you for sharing the words in my head.
@@naemamanyara5679 just get started. I started my YT and IG less than a year back and I'm already making decent income as well as have grown my following to 12k+ combined. It's only getting better with time as things have started to compound. Start today, seriously today.
It is the same anywhere in the world. And we also have people like me who started, stoped, and are trying to start again! Dan is helping on it!
Thanks for sharing this thought, @_DSRajput
Yes, most people never start living, let alone start a UA-cam Channel. Who really feels alive and fully present. How many people really do anything with their lives, except basic survival. If you can figure out how to start living, you might be able to start a UA-cam channel.
Instead of just consuming content, also create your digital social proof as your story based on things that you suppose to own (new skills with old principles).
My philosophy is based on common things that most human pass throught
- The curiosity of your inner child
- The attitude of your adolescense
- The responsability of your adult
- And wisdom from your old self
Thanks Dan. Keep up the work.
Well said.
amazing word salad. how is that philosophy paying your rent and who is willing to pay you $$$ for such services.
@@yuriib5483 In my case provinding a digital service on demand and being good at it delivering.
The compound effect is slowly creating a reputation based on market needs and genuine self-interest
Dan Koe makes video. I click. Simple
Big facts
Agreed
Precisely
The same
But do you do anything? 🤔
It’s hard to describe what I want to do with my life, but this guy nails it on the head. I feel understood and not alone on this journey.
Definitely not alone. UA-cam is great, but if I could recommend one thing, it would be finding people in the replies of good twitter / instagram accounts. I don't mean to promote my own, but you can find some incredible people in the replies to some of my content - especially since a lot of them are on the same page
Jesus loves you !
Yessssssss
First encounter with you and you're a brother from another mother. No question. I think the demand for this kind of content is so underestimated. Thank you!
Wow! You articulated what I’ve been thinking about for a long time….I’m a Holistic Synthesizer….. I’ve always told myself I wanted to learn various creative skills not merely to make money but to serve a higher purpose that gives meaning to my life and offers a contribution to the world. I see these skills as serving my ultimate why.
“A Holistic Synthesizer is someone who documents their journey to the good life in an educational and persuasive manner.” -- this is amazing!
“At the end of everyone’s life journey they are a life coach”
“Your brand is your story”
“Your content is your school- sharing your life’s journey”
“Your product is the map-the holistic approach to life”
All of these quotes are amazing! Inspired by you today! ❤ thank you!
i’ve been binge watching this series over the weekend & FINALLY laid out the structure of my consulting biz. grateful for your actionable advice!
Hell yeah, glad it helps🙏
What videos are part of the series?
Yes, I would like to explore this series. Thank you.
"We need more individuals that are truth seekers." Amen to that! Holism is the way of the future. At 60 years old, I'm finally ready to live this path and share it with the world. I'm finishing my first health and wellness book that will blend intermittent fasting, whole food, meditation, and exercise. Your discussion fits perfectly with what's happening in my life right now. I really appreciate 🙏 your work!
Easily one of the most unique, useful, and authentic creators on UA-cam. I have to say Dan, you're a cut above. I never feel like you're offering a gimmick or are trying to push me towards a sponsor. Real, raw, honest, and very rare nowadays. Much appreciated!
I am a modern conqueror 🤘 Awesome to see how your content aligns with what you teach… got the newsletter yesterday and the UA-cam video dropped today 🙌 Gotta walk the walk and talk the talk, I appreciate your truth and value to help others 🙏
I started my own business in 1999 and still own it to this day. I can't "coach" anyone how to do it because my business is an extension of me and no one can duplicate exactly what I do. So, the "one size fits all" approach of "learn how to do something and then teach it to others" does not and CANNOT apply in my case.
This is absolutely amazing, and I have been trying for almost a year now, to articulate or make sense of any of this! I have started two businesses, and while both were successful, there came a point where there was no more room for growth in my OWN holistic and satisfying way. Essentially, I’ve been in the middle of such a bad existential crisis for over a year, and ended myself in a story similar to many spiritual stories - I had it all. Everything one could ever dream, but I was empty and I sought something else. THIS is what I’ve been trying to put words to this whole time while everyone is watching me throw my 15 year career into a state of chaos publicly 😅 You are an absolute genius! So thankful I found you!
This is probably the most honest and most valuable piece of content I’ve ever watched.I’m brand new on my UA-cam journey and you literally just said everything I needed to hear and laid out all the keys,new sub gang.thanks Dan 👊🏼😊
When YT began showing me your content, I didn't really resonate. But the algorithm knows me better than I do. Lately you've been more and more relevant. Or I'm just now getting the message. I've run an agency since 2010 for the money. I'm burnt, frustrated and depressed. Doing something I actually love is what I need!
Dan thanks for sharing your experience and knowledge with us. I am about to be an empty nester and your videos are really helping me sort out what I want to do with myself and perhaps a new career in this new chapter of my life. Thanks for getting down to the nitty gritty without a bunch of pomp and circumstance. Cheers!
Valuable info Dan. Your consistency is King.
Great video. It's really nice to hear somebody else say out loud to the world what I have been telling myself my whole life. It's literally the opposite of what We are taught in school and what our parents try to make us feel bad for thinking about. Good stuff man second video i've watched of yours I'll be a subscriber for life
thank you so much Dan! this video made me ruminate on my past lifestyle and what things led me to change, what helped me to feel better. I even wrote a whole post about one of those things(questioning my daily choices), and recorded a video of me talking about it (which is getting out of my comfort zone) it is inspirational, thank you!
'your product is a map - a holistic system that helps people gets to where you are with less trials and errors" - loved it
I love your content, I just have a hard time consuming it so I usually just keep your new videos on my playlists so that I can take my time to flesh it all out.
All of your most recent videos seem increasingly relevant to my present unfolding.. Thank you Dan for being a valuable human that I can resonate with and giving actionable advice in achieving the dream.
It's just so funny how you're describing concepts that seem so simple to me, however when I attempt to share the same concepts with others it falls flat. lol
So grateful to have run into your channel here .
First time ever
This is the most amazing advice I stumbled across. So many friends have encouraged me to start making videos and share my life on topics they feel I have inspired in their lives. I haven't taken any action because I'm not sure where to start or what my end goal should be. I love the idea of putting myself out there imperfect, learning, evolving, and having people that resonate with what I am doing and then inspire them to do the same. This was the first video I have watched of yours and I'm now a subscriber :)
Each sentence you speak holds so much value. Thank you for your channel 🔥
Excellent...
I just discovered you today.
I like step-by-step, but with the micro spaces filled in in-between the steps.
Thanks for sharing this!
James
Just Thanks. Talking about clarity you have the skill of clear communication and that is enjoyable.
Thank you for leading by example! 🙌
I heard first 10min, and got so much resonance 💥
You are the real deal ✨
Your videos are everything. Thank you for the depth & realness. It is super motivational. Here for the fluff ✨✨✨
Holy shit man, how did I not find you sooner. You just fully described what I have been telling people I am trying to do, far better than I was able to. I feel seen, validated and educated. Thank you
Awesome as per usual. Very keen for your next video, as I think that’s the clarity I’m currently chasing, but always gain something from your content.
Brother you hit it out the park and clarified where I was headed but you are already there..I been creating a holistic life enhancement niche combining the essentials all in one , my background is philosophy eastern philosophy merging it with neuroscience to come out with best solutions for every problem humans are facing ..thanks again definitely joining one of your courses
thankful for coming across your videos
this is absolute masterpiece
This really flicked my third eye. Thanks for sharing, I love it!
Greetings Dan I’m so glad I came upon your channel I appreciate your point of view and deliverance. Keep it coming thank you much peace and blessings to you
Your content is The Most Useful that I have found!!! I have been so stuck until I found you today.
So motivating. Thank you!
These videos are so helpful with real, actionable advice on creating your own path online and contributing to society while making a living that you enjoy! Your videos always come at the best time with what i'm trying to figure out to do, keep up the great work Dan!
A small little soulless lashlight 😂 everything you're talkin about I've already written in a Google document. But it really means a lot to me that you're talking about value. I'm writing one of those books just for myself. On the idea of magic money. Just understanding value it all just really comes down to just appreciating things just the way they are. So thank you for this amazing content and helps me get organized and my. ❤
Thanks Dan for your talks, because they help me a lot to gain clarity and perspective about my project.
Thank you Dan, your message is great and amazing
Wow! I could listen and watch you.... all day long! Holy. Loving your content! Thank you! Fun things it is!
Thank you for the quality content you make 👍🏾
Thank you ❤💥. Greatly appreciate your teaching
Best advise I’ve seen. Thank you for this. ❤
I have to say this was one of your best videos in quite some time.
I like the idea of going wide and then reaching down within your viewers for nieche.
This is gold! Gives me so much motivation to grow my personal brand.
Your videos are the best, I really resonate with what you say. You really understand.
i was beset on my self improvement journey by my interest in philosophy. this is the first video of yours i’ve seen. glad to see someone approaches this with the same mindset i do.
Really enjoy your content my friend. Always helpful and insightful.
I really appreciate this! Thank you
This is gold…i absolutely felt this in my soul. There was something so pure and raw and authentic that really turned a button on within me. Thank you so much for posting this. New Subscriber
Great video! One of your best yet.
Dan your content is a gust of fresh air in this space.
Thank you for encouraging us to be better, to think and to do act.
Damn bro I feel so weak to cry about this but after being abused, used, scammed, betrayed and left alone. I feel no empathy or hope anymore. The only thing I want right now is to be free. Dan gives me so much clarity even if I have no clue what I’m gonna do . Hope everyone who’s in difficult situations will fight and conquer.
You can do it!
You got this! One day at a time💪
Keep going forward, champ!
This right here is the story, skills and experiences that can be converted into your life’s work, philosophy, “public school” and holistic solution as a product. You’re an Asset, Gratian.
@@fbdeploy well said 👏
You have true clarity of thought.
I love the insight in these talks
I’m so happy I came across your channel.
Thank you for amazing video. Really resonates
Incredibly well explained! ❤
Omg 🎉 so my mind spinning listen to you ❤Thank you so much .
Man this is exactly what I needed to hear.
I started making UA-cam videos and podcasts in the beginning of 2020 but fell off. I’m only now just starting again but I feel much more qualified to speak on things like self-development, spirituality, and philosophy.
It’s good to hear people put the things you want to do into perspective because some of us deal with imposter syndrome. So thanks for this 🙏🏼
Thanks Dan for sharing this freely. what you have just shared a clear blue print to starting the one person business which is 100% very clear. people pay lots of money to get this kind of knowledge from a master class.
Fabulous fabulous fabulous! Authentic and pragmatic. Good one:
Great video Dan. I quit my job last week. Tomorrow starts my creator journey. You’re an inspiration. 🙏
Good luck !)
Planning on putting in my two week notice next week and doing the same. Best of luck to you!
@@iamadampace best of luck to you too!
just realized i'm totally into that fluff 👍 thanks for your great work, it totally gives the necesary hints on how to find the purpose that's not just materialistic. and it just takes everything to another level! 👏
Dan, thanks for your authenticity
Super informative videos. Dan is always on point.
WOW! blew my mind TRUTH!!! keep enlightening others 🙏
You have put my thoughts into words accurately! I have been pushing relaunching my arts and crafts website for the very same concept you explained in this video. Thank you for organizing my thoughts 🙏🏼 very helpful
Dan, your videos have VALUE-packed stuff. Resonating with your content.
Something woke up in me watching this. Thank you 🙏🏾🔥
So do happy i found your channel ❤❤❤❤
wow i love this, way of thinking , very inspiring ! thx
I think in the long term ethical, meaningful and purposeful practices will always come out on top. We already see that with many people and companies today.
If you want short term success, do as you please.
But if you want long term success and fullfilment then cultivate meaning, pursue your passions and remember: COMPASSION over competition.
Warren Buffett said something along the lines: "if you take the high road, it's never crowded."
@@edheldude That's very well put, ill have to remember that one.
Your work is amazing and always on point.
This was good content,subscribed!
Love your videos and channel. 👌 Best motivation and boost people can get...
I wrote 4 pages of notes from this video. Thank you for the knowledge Dan ❤
Thanking the Universe for aligning me with this frequency 💜🦋👑
Love this, each one of us has something important to offer, that someone else will find useful. Inspiring me to get to work!
Hey girl
Thank you Dan.
Thank you so much for this video man, I feel exactly like this. I've been really struggling to pick one thing, there are so many things I believe I have good knowledge in that I could monetise, so thank you for this video!
I loved this video. I am already doing most of what you discuss, and it feels good to hear that I'm on the right track! I love my life and I'm extremely happy with where my future is headed.
Thank you, Dan for sharing your knowledge. I always come away with more clarity after watching your videos. Being a musician in the creator space, I've been wondering how to apply this knowledge so your ZubyMusic example was also very insightful.
The Hill quote on a community with a shared purpose seems to be the piece of the puzzle I was missing. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you!
Completely agree re: niching! I just started my YT people when I finally decided I would just talk about what would serve my community. Being told to niche down (spirituality, business or health) kept me off YT for years. I have been talking about this for years and now that people are talking about this I feel less crazy.
Dude, I feel you 100%. Thanks for verbalizing and sharing your thoughts in such a clear and actionable way.
Great content, I'm super happy for my friend to point me to your direction.
I'm on the same road actually. Just started a couple of months ago and haven't really seen any direct measurable benefit of it, but at least it does feel good to do and publicise stuff.
great video as always dan, on track more than ever many thanks to you.
Your work is simply superb n easy to understand ❤️
I didn't care for what I heard on this channel when I saw the last video (cheap dopamine). It sounded like everything I heard everywhere else, but with this video I'm hooked.
Thanks for sharing your perspectives and mission!
Great video start: Shadow / Shadow work?!
Thanks again for the holistic approach and clarity!
This is pure gold! 🔥
Dan you're a G bro. This is my language. Timely and resonates fully.
Dude, I have no idea who you are and how I stumbled upon this video, but damn, this hits hard. I ran an online education business and the way I saw the bullshit of marketing moving towards the Clickfunnels route (scarcity, countdown timers, bullshit) just turned me off of it so much that I hated even being associated with 'those people who sell courses online'.
It's been a real struggle to wrestle with over the years in terms of what I enjoy doing and creating for 'work' because I love making things that are helpful (beyond the dopamine level hit of 'get rich courses'), and this video is giving me some new insights in how to go about that in a fresh way / reframe how I'm thinking about this, so thanks for creating the video, Dan. Subbed!
the most valuable youtube channel by far ❤️🔥
Man you are speaking my language. Thank you for these wise words. Love the way you communicate all of this!
