@Clark
i just found you recently. your video on the gnostic gospels. loved it, as well as your other stuff. subscribed. hit that like button people.
kinda lookin like a 70s porn star today, but you pull it off my man 💋🥴 lol
I KNOW EXACTLY WHAT YOURE TALKING ABOUT AND IM GOING TO CHANGE THE WORLD THANK YOU EVER SO MUCH FOR THIS 😭
Thanks I needed this am going through a deep depression in my life my dreams is to be an influencer or UA-camr been dreaming about this since I was in 2015 seeing logan Paul makes me so jealous of the success they have achieved I feel so bad seeing them living the life I want for myself also starting a graphic and fashion company this will make me recommit

Hardest part of realizing your dreams is to define what that looks like, instead of it being simply an abstract idea.
Having a reasonable dream with an attainable goal and being proactive toward this, is what we would consider ideal. But in order to truly be in control, we must first relinquish it to our Creator
Defining what your dream life looks like specifically is important, and to add onto that, defining what it FEELS like is your operating system of how to get there! EMbodying the qualities of the Future YOU that is within that Dream life.
Do the best thing you can think of. You'll learn along the way where you need to change the plan
It has to be meaningful. You have to know your why
@@vickyshort5682for me personally it's not about HOW is it but WHAT is it? I don't care if it needs hardwork, patience bla bla. I just can't figure out what to do 😢? That's my problem. thts why I watch this video.
I feel like this can be applied to those without "big" dreams. Not everyone wants to be rich and famous, but knowing what you want in life and especially WHY is crucial.
Exactly me here .I can't figure out how to reorganize myself but I know I love fashion designing and sewing .Am just so stuck somewhere somehow😓
I couldn't agree more with you, Ken! Everybody has his own dream.
🙏❤️
Absolutely!! Just being clear on what you want is a thing as rare as a Unicorn! That IS big!
Exactly, A simple life is just as profound as a lavish life. Both have beautiful responsibility and deep novelty.
These past two years have taught me so much about timing and fate it’s practically absurd. Go from being 25 with a family with a great job to my mother passing moving to a different state and the mother of my child leaving and totally starting over from scratch at 26. All of those things had to happen to put me into a position to get to the life I wanted it was one hell of a long and heart breaking detour but it was obviously absolutely necessary.
wow man what a crazy 2 years. hope the best for you. you're gonna crush it this year!
Giving you all my blessings, I’m on a similar journey and I know you’ll achieve everything you desire.
Sorry to hear about your mom passing while u are still so young . I'm 41 , single mom of 2 . Looking back , the moments in my life that felt like I couldn't go on bc it was too heavy & too hard ... Are what's shaped me into who I am .One day , u wake up and realize that u have navigated your way out of that pain and heartache & kept going. I would never have the strength and wisdom that I have now, had it not been from the hardest parts of my life. KEEP GOING .. u owe it to yourself ❤blessings .
I feel you man.. the power of attraction not only brings the nicey nice things, but comes with the storm.. we see ourselves in certain positions in life, we move towards that and what we must understand is that allng the way, we’re going to have to give up certain parts of ourselves that will screw up the chances of being in the positions we want to be in. Its not easy, but we must try to remember to stick to the plan. Always.
@@klintonkamogelo3471 absolutely fantastically said.
You have no idea what this video meant to me just now. It feels like faith that I’m watching this video at this exact moment in my life. You are a blessing and thank you so much for all that you do for us!
Life is so beautiful in that light! We always receive exactly what we need in the exact moment we truly need it!
01:04 Dream Suppression is a real thing. Love how you addresses it. I heard a quote by JoeRogan yesterday that said “You aren’t the same person that made the mistakes of your past, you’re the person that’s learned from them”. Thanks for putting this together. Great content
Beautiful quote!🤍
beautiful quote! Its am amazing when we realize that we always have agency on how we perceive, and how we can learn!
awesome quote!!! 💜
I'm gonna be the king of the pirates!
From the age of 12 I had wanted to be a singer… trouble was I was cripplingly shy. I got to age 36 and realised I didn’t want to get to 80 yrs and think “what if?”…. So I bit the bullet and had singing lessons for 2 months to see if I had a voice to work with (I didn’t trust my own judgement)… then after 2 months There was an advert in the local paper by a band looking for a singer…. Scary stuff but I went for the audition and got the job……. Which led to a 25 year singing career. My desire was strong enough (and time was ticking) to push through the practicing with nervous sweat dripping down my back….. in an empty room! I discovered I was very good at it. 😊 …. Here’s the kicker…. From gig one… I was never nervous…. Go figure!
Recommitment is grossly undervalued in our culture. We expect everything to work perfectly the first time. And then we give up when it inevitably doesn't. I've fallen into this trap multiple times. So THANK YOU for making this video. Loads of value here!
I was heavily into Muay Thai no matter how many years passed even getting sober for 4 years and being in toxic relationships doing the internal/shadow work.I couldn’t escape it and then just recommitted to it. Best decision I ever made.
absolutely.. grit and perseverance have become ever more endangered in this day and age!
Such a delicate balance we have to navigate in life. The ability to feel free to adapt and pivot, just the same as the perseverance to to commit, re-commit, to the path you feel called to.
Great pep talk! Too often the person standing in your way - is You. It’s much easier to stick to your comfort zone and what you know, coz with doing something different comes “the unknown” and too much perceived risk. Great reminder to break down that big goal into little steps and just take one step everyday to reaching that next goal - and the great thing about coaching is having someone in your corner to help give you that push and also to keep you going when things get hard. Nice one, Clark!
My detour at the moment is my health with breast cancer and double mastectomy and reconstruction recovery with two small children so this video is helping me realize I can still do anything thank you for your videos Clark truly ❤❤❤
Best wishes on your health journey
You have to have a clearly defined goal and work towards it every day. The process is more important than the destination. Keep going.
I’ve been watching a ton of videos for the past year and this is hands down the BEST one so far. I’ve never been this motivated before! Thank you for sharing this!
I love your focus on identity shifts - I set a "becoming" goal every year, or a word/quality that I'm hoping to embody. That way, even if I end up unable to complete a specific habit, I can still make some sort of effort to embody that quality. This year it's "resilient" and last year it was "tidy"
Came to tears multiple times during this video. Thank you for putting it out there 🙏🏼
Good morning! Definitely needed this right now. 💛 Thank you! 😊
Holy cow💩 Clark! This video gave me chills & tears bc the I feel like Justin. Something happened to me while pursuing a DJ career that put me in a bad place in my mind. I got burnt out and stopped making music & DJing. I own & operate a successful food truck, but deep down I want to accomplish my true goal of being a digital music artist.
Your videos have helped me SO MUCH during those hard times. They opened the door to other great people like Dr. Joe Dispenza & Bruce Lipton, among many others. You are truly an inspiration, thank you man.
Why don't you Dj out of the food truck?!?!? 🤯
@@air... This is actually a very useful comment.
I realize that I can't even get to step one because I have suppressed my hopes and ideas for so long that I only have a vague idea of what i want my future to be. It's extremely hard when you're in your thirties and life gets flipped upside down so now you are trying to define what the rest of your like will look like.
The point at 05:40-06:55 where if you knew with certainty the vision would come true and you would continue to stick on the process more and more for it to manifest faster. That point really hit home. BRING THE CERTAINTY NOW TO THIS PRESENT MOMENT THAT YOU WILL ACHIEVE YOUR VISION.
Great video. Thank you Clark
My 2.0 has changed many times since I was a teen. My current 2.0 goal is to become an author. I have started taking small steps toward that goal by enrolling in a writing class, writing a short story draft, and letting other people see it to provide feedback. Inwardly I feel I should be farther along, but I have never formatted any of my story notes for anyone to read before. So this is actually a huge step for me! 🎉
As one of your recent subscribers I'd like to congratulate you on hitting 1 million!!!
I love how I can relate to all of this. In a way we are all on the same journey, the goal might be different, but it's all about getting clarity, making a plan and comitting to it.
There's about 20 steps that come before 'write original music' though. That part is a whole hero's journey on its own lol
Just to say how well timed this video is; I put it on my watch later playlist some time ago and I watched it 10mins ago. And the next video on my playlist was from Marie who is a holistic health coach. I was so shocked and amazed that I had to share this.
What a gem of a video. Thanks for this. Also love how long the video is
I just made my niece and nephew listen to this. I think it is the best example of your dreams and the divine order of life❤
True Attention on your dreams, Reshapes your Observation of problems in life.
Best point from this vid: It's not about the "One True Big Commitment", it's the small recommitment that decides the flow of future.☸️
I recently got in a car accident about a month ago, and dam that has been one of the best things that’s happened in a while. It made me go back and rethink my path, I got really distracted with just making money that I just threw saving up for a business and practicing the technical skills that I need to have in order to get there right out the window, it’s like something just said, this isn’t going to work and just crumbled my life into a ball and threw it away and got a new sheet of paper to do it the right way
Clark I love your videos, super inspiring,you really helped me getting through some hard times and I want to thank you for this. I got the chills when you talked about drumming, at 15 I really wanted to become a drummer but a car accident left me with limited use of my left arm and my dream out the window. Last year at the age of 52 I reconnected with that dream. It's been a year now and I'm having the time of my life! Thank you for all you do, I'm super proud of you. You're making a difference in people's life 🤗
“Sometimes comparing yourself with other peoples finished product, instead of their first draft is often misleading.” Words that people should use as a reminder everyday.
One of my favorite affirmation formulas is this, "I don't know how I (achieve big scary goal), I just know that I do. And I am fulfilled." Keep going everyone!!
@Awakened creators thank you...🙏
As a fellow drummer you're story of how you ended up drumming for Andrew WK AND doing awesome work on this channel is super inspiring! Im aiming to inspire other metalheads through my brand to overcome struggle and be their greatest version! 🤘Steve
Holy shit! This video was a clear synchronisty/message for me. That women is me! I literally had a calling to help other mums through motherhood once I had my Son. I've been dipping in and out and not fully committing because of distraction and life. Now today during meditation a thought popped in my head saying I'm just waiting around for it happen but I'm the only one that can make it happen, then later I saw this video! Thank you, it was just what I needed to see today and helped me get clearer about my mission.
I love how you make spiritual ideas and practices so incredibly easy, “no nonsense”…. I’ve used your 3, 6, 9 method for manifesting. So I guess thank you! I really do appreciate you! Thank you, Clark! ✌️
I have to say "i love you"! Thank you for all these amazing videos, now it is on me to act on them!
Looking at this I realized, we don't have just one goal, we have various different goals, and the problem is - sometimes (or most of the time) these are in conflict. Sometimes I feel thet we exist in this loops of setbacks and D tours... I personally have achieved many dreams and came to the point where Idk what I want that next version to be.
My friend, you got this! Keep moving toward your deeper dreams!🥂 And thank you, Clark!
Really needed this right now! Thanks so much Clark. And congrats on recommitting to drumming!! So proud of you 🥳
My issue to reaching my goals is I’ll do great toward achieving a fit body. I’ll be running 2-3 x/week, weight training 2-3x/week, eating clean, then hiking, biking, walking the days I’m not running. I’ll be getting fit and feeling great! Then comes my illness. I didn’t know why I felt sick, sore, and fatigued until a couple months ago when I was diagnosed, but apparently fibromyalgia kicks in. Everything falls apart. I try to get back on track but the migraines and pain can last a long time… it’s very frustrating. I do meditate daily despite feeling ill. I don’t even “overdo” it like I was advised not to while feeling good. I limit myself and prevent my “go hard or go home” instinct 😂
Something similar always happens me too... I get to a certain level of fitness then I get some silly injury or get sick... just last weekend I had like a migraine for 2 days plus my skin was sore to the touch & feeling drained... I refuse to give up though & I'm pretty sure it's a mental block or limiting belief deep down! I feel your pain man but keep working on it!🤘Steve
Abraham hicks has a nice input on that issue
You might want to look at an antidepressant or supplement with l dopa and or 5 htp. There are studies showing a link between fibromyalgia and low levels of serotonin, dopamine and norepinephrine.
this guy sure knows how to provide you with some goose bumps
This is absolutely the video for anyone who feels they are lost. I love the power of visualisation and then working backwards. This applies not just to your life. You can also use the same thing for planning almost anything.
Ok, about life, I know if you believe it, it will happen. But, this is more true for some than others. You have to acknowledge the environment and circumstances and the role they play in your journey. Everyone’s story has a set of constraints that they have to overcome. But for some, they are harder to overcome. If you are a child born in a refugee camp vs someone from California, chances of one of them achieving their dreams is higher than other. It is not impossible.
This is such a great video. I lowkey judged the title but after watching wow I feel inspired to recommit! More please 💜
Your judgment was low-key because no one cared about your opinion.
Another amazing video, Clark! Thanks for sharing with us!
Cheers from Brazil!
How can I like this video more than once? This was so good.
Wow. Feels like this video was made for me. Don't even touch my instrument anymore for same reasons said, fully believed my songs were "good enough" to start "something" never even got to play out once. Friends got married moved away. One left here, super talented keyboard player, more concerned with drugs, toxic relationships, I gave up, fell asleep, been working dead end 9-5 job for YEARS. That spark has been reignited, it's the "how" that stops people dead in their tracks 🛑
I have experienced those detours as well. Last year was exactly that and caused by a relationship. So true. We must get back on course and say No to everything that causes us a detour and gets us off course. Thanks for sharing your brilliance!
Clark, your ideas are always spot on! I'm always like, "right!". I'm 20, btw. Been watching your videos for at least 3 years now!
I just started listening to you and I'm locked in.
Great reminder to help with my new dreams (middle grade author-new book in a month! ), and feeling not so alone for lost old dreams. I still feel pain watching opera, as after getting a degree, I gave up on that dream due to chronic illness. I still sing professionally, but it’s not the same. Part of me would still give anything to have a career with my voice. But I can’t go after both. 😢
Peace.
Thank you Clark. I just discovered your channel and it's been a game changer. No visible changes in my life yet but for the first time I am optimistic and I have faith. Your coach different from all manifest channels I've watched. Thank you
This video made me subscribe. It also made me shed a tear. I didnt realize I have forgotten about what I truly wanted to do with my life after getting caught up with all my responsibilities day to day. Ill make that my focus this month, Recommitment, so I can start the year with better intention and therefore attract more happiness and abundance. With all my heart, thank you so much for the clarity!
This video saved my life. To have this structure laid out with takeaway exercises to apply to my life.... thank you so much for this.
When you touched upon 'How did I get here?' I thought you would delve deeper into that aspect. A lot of times, understanding how we reached a place so far away from our True North helps us to recalibrate.
Amazing video! Congratulations!! I've watched it a year ago and everytime I re watch it helps me to know where I am in my Journey and it gives me that little boost to not give up. Thanks!!
Thanks for inspiring me to know it’s possible to be a mentor and a performer.
Thank you so much for this! And congrats on the 1M subs my man! 🙏
I hit a major setback a few years back and lost hope but honestly I’ve recently been trying to get back on track so thanks for this video!
Your channel is my best discovery at the end of this year. Perfect timing with my life's choices actually. Just thx
I agree with a lot of what you said, I like the ideas such as knowing where you're at as objectively as you can, dreaming, cuz that's a really important and accurate term I believe, and the detours and setbacks are well said too, the path forward changes.
There's no such thing as certainty. To do things believing things will turn out well, 5 years down the road. Things might go well, but they certainly won't go the way you plan. The only thing you can be certain of is uncertainty, and regardless of that, how will you move forward? That kinda mindset moves you forward at a rate you wouldn't think was possible before.
Wow Clark!!!!! Thank you!!! I double majored in business management and accounting, (math not my strong suite either) i got pregnant, and have been a mom for 16 years no career, i feel like im not successful because i dont have my own source of income, my husband supports me, i hustle here and there, but i needed to hear this!!!!❤❤❤
One of your best videos. Thank you so much for this, keep up the good work!
This is powerful to me. One day I will meet you Sir and thank you personally as my 2.0 version.
After watching and learning from your videos, i always read the comments afterwards and gain even more insight! Thank you everyone for sharing 🤗 bless you all
I love the concept of recommitment. I have always thought of myself as someone with commitment issues. I know it sounds trivial but the concept of recommitment I think will help me a ton. Thank you
Sounds great!! I'm 74 and don't have the slightest clue what kind of Goal to set. I've had this problem ALL my life, I never went anywhere because I was interested in SO many things I didn't know where to go, what direction to start in.
Dang! This vid has hit home!! Been drumming for 25 plus years! And.. Been doing research on a FBA business feeling a bit like the dj in your examples. Thanks for the inspiration 🙏
Sounds a lot like Bob Procter stuff. Tony Robbins told us years ago that Bob was one of his first mentors. Bob’s stuff is still online, though he died early this year.
Bro when you talk about drumming i got into tears coz mine is lil similar. I used to sing alot from the time i saw the world even before i was talking properly there was this tune that comes in my head. I was introduced to stage at a very young age and i love the crowd cheering for me. And as years past idk how but i left singing and its been almost 10 years since i have never been on a stage. Bro i m really crying rn coz i know if i don't do something about it im really gonna regret it on my dead bed and i really don't know how to start all over again.
Thank you. Thank you so much Clark. This really helped, A LOT.
I think this video was meant for me, the universe is guiding me. The example you used about holistic that’s me, that’s my dream . I can cry right now 🥹 I need to stick to my vison. Thank you for this video. No dream is impossible. I hope one day I get to meet you and talk about this exact moment.
The recomitment reaaaally sticked onto me. Ive been painting and drawing since i could hold pencil then i went to artschool was thrilled but after the first year they sucked the motivation and inspiration out of me. Im glad i came to this video at the right time ❤
Thank you!
I so so soo needed this video! Thank you Clark!
Dear friend, designing your life is all about intentional choices and actions. Start by identifying your values, passions, and strengths. Set clear goals and create an action plan with achievable steps. Embrace flexibility and adaptability as you navigate challenges and opportunities. Remember, the key to designing a fulfilling life is to make choices that align with your true self. Best of luck on your journey to designing the life you want.
‘Its not your fault, but it is your responsibilty’. I fuckin grunted when I heard that, what a great line!
I mentally have this step-by-step for my goal of being a successful author. Step one, write and publish as much as possible! This was a great video!!
Inspiring! You just moved me to take action again. I started watching some of your videos years ago because I liked what you were doing and I found value. I think you were at around 300k subs. Maybe less. Now you're at 1M. That in itself is inspiring. Because of guys like you I paid off all my debt exept for the mortgage by upping my game and working way more. I have everything I need to start getting more serious and making better videos. Like you I'm a musician and also big into personal development. I'd be fine staying at mt current job but I'm always envious when I see others playing gigs and speaking to an audience like you! Good job and thanks for the influence 👍.
Wish me luck 🙏
All the best to hit 1 million subs🌈✨🎉
I subscribed to Support
I really enjoy how you put this into a proper perspective! Love it. Just what I needed to hear today too! Because I have been beating myself up for not focusing and following my plan, and allowing myself to get detoured by a friend. In which I suffered all the same situations.
I really needed to hear this as I'm re-finding myself and making a comeback!!! Thank you 🙏🏽
My dream is to be an author! (Literary fiction and non-fiction). I’ve reached one dream of becoming a professor, but haven’t had luck getting a literary agent (yet!).
It’s not about the virtualization it’s more about the emotionalization. It’s like, I want a big career, but the imagination of no time for rest, family and and and makes me sad. I choose a good feeling life. I work less, I consume what I really need! What do I really need? The world is soo beautiful and cheap when you are happy and in love. I swear!
Feeling good is the goal. Not possession what never belongs really to you.
Several videos of personal growth and how to achieve your goals and dreams. I would like to see a video on how to find new dreams when you feel lost
I have too many dreams and I am afraid of having to choose between them. So I let life take me where it wants. Maybe I should start to take more control over it.
"The sobering truth, guys, everything is not your fault...but it damn sure is your responsibility. Ev-er-y-thing in your life is your responsibility." - BOOM! YES! Subscribed!
I love your videos, thank you Clark for making such productive videos and guiding us all ❤ HNY in advance ❤
Congrats on 1M subs Clark :)
Hey Clark, I'm a new subscriber. I love a lot of the stuff your saying and about this whole 2.0 of yourself and I feel like I'm stuck. In life, in not finding the right people, women, dead end job and the worst part is...I'm just watching myself sink and it's so hard to admit your drowning and need help. I scotch tape on a smile everyday and I'll be honest I haven't truly been happy or felt that I'm no where near the best version of myself. Honestly where do I even start 😮💨
Start with your health!
I needed this Clark really thank you so much! 😭 time to get back to my dream and my skill! 💪🏻
May all reading this be well and inspiring to hit your goals and so be it it is done 🌈
This video really pierced through me, made me realize what I am not doing. Thanks for this.
Thank you for this! "What would you do if you knew you could not fail?"
I really like they you speak, the sound and rhythm. It sounds friendly but also reassuring I guess. Cheers, dude!
I know exactly what I want. I know it’s big. And I know it’s mine. Rest in the assumption that you are already who you want to be.🙏🏽✨🙌🏽☀️
drum part. you were just lucky
Excellent 👌🏻 Greetings from Scotland 😊 Have a great day everyone 🌻
So glad I came across this, thank you!!!!! Such an inspirational video that has me thinking....about to watch this 20 more times!
10:11 He makes a good example. Be careful who you marry and who is in your life.
My dream is to at least have a dream to dream of
Dude! You are so freakin GOOD! Bless you my friend! Thank you for all of this! Love from Mumbai 💜
As someone who turned 18 this year
Am actually grateful for this video 😌✨
Edit: am also a drummer 🙌😂
Awesome video!
