One of the best pieces of advice I ever got was. "Start then figure out how" Before this advice I was waiting for the perfect time to start my business. Once I changed my viewpoint I was in business from that day on.
Agree with this 100%. Failing is the best education.
how is that going now?
@@sibikarthikeyan2426 Very well thank you, living the dream!
Excellent advice
@@tapuzak sky is the limit🤞👍👍🙌...i my self a medical student ,figuring out some idea for a startup .
This was smooth, as someone that founded a startup that eventually failed my biggest lesson was to do shit myself instead of waiting on outside help. For example: if you're not an engineer but have a great app idea, learn how to code and build a barebone version yourself even if your work is at a D level you'll start to attract others that will be willing to help you take it to a C and eventually to a B
Thank you for this. I've been sitting on an app idea specific to my professional expertise unable to move forward due to not knowing where to start.
How did we get so lucky to have free videos like this
I just asked myself the same question. This video changed my life. crazy.
Thank UA-cam and Garry Tan
Easy, lot of dumb people don't know stuff like this exist.
One fine day, people no smarter than you decided to build a video sharing platform.
Well nothing is free dude you are paying in time to watch this.
You can tell Garry is an awesome designer by the fantastic production and editing he does on his videos. In my opinion this is one of the best channels on UA-cam. Thanks Gary for this amazing ‘free’ content ❤️
I've never met someone that I love to hear from so much. I just launched my Startup and I'm running around trying to figure everything out - it's awesome... I've had to recondition my mind as my first passion in Music forced me into the mindset that everything had to be perfect before you released it. This however is so liberating! Thanks, Garry. Seriously can't wait to grab a drink and chill with you!
Note to self: I have everything I need right now.
Thank you Garry Tan, this video is liberating and energizing.
Garry, this is my new favorite YT channel, yet interestingly, almost none of this information is new to me. I do however like your clarity of thought and your ability to express those thoughts in ways everyone can understand and be inspired by. That’s a powerful and rare art. Much love & support. 🙌🏾
Such a good way to articulate it, clarity of thought. Exactly what this is. Garry makes it sound so simple and achievable.
I love your content, but more importantly, I love your delivery. It is clear that you care. It is clear that the videos are part of a larger vision to make this world a better place. Thank you 🙏.
I love that you inspire courage among all virtues, Garry. We need so much more of it, especially for starting movements.
Woohoo, I've been binge watching your videos while doing other work on the side. You are my people. I'm so thankful for people like you finally giving me a place to call home. I've been working on something for almost 3 years now that has a lot of potential to change the dentist career field that I'm in. Do it yourself is the only reason why I survived the difficult times. I know that it had about a 100 percent chance of success because it solves a serious problem
Garry's videos have this incredible knack for completely reshaping how I view the world. Thank you so much for that!
Garry, out of all the channels on YT I watch I feel like yours is your most quality, selfless, and overall insightful. Thank you.. planning on doing a deep dive on all your content soon
Sheesh and I just noticed that all of the revenue from the channel is donated... you the real MVP
Garry Tan, Your decision to help people with this valuable advice has made you truly stand out, am indebted to you, for helping me START, i come from a little country in Africa called Uganda, and these videos have really inspired me alot, Thank you sooo much, keep them coming..
Garry, you’re such a great speaker! It’s invaluable to learn from someone like yourself and above all else, inspiring. Appreciate your advice
My pleasure!
Oh my gosh, your speech is so good, I get to work before you finish the video.
"Fk perfection" best quote from the video. If schools focused on teaching that early, I feel students would be way more creative and willing to fail
Whenever I see your videos, I take something with me that'll stay with me forever.
In college I was so appalled that since I don't have any money, my company would have to wait. I even sat for job interviews and I used to have panic attacks thinking that I am not devoting 100% to my company and the product would get delayed.
Now, I still don't earn any money but I am so content that I working on making my company a reality, I just went ahead with what I had (no money, no resources) and now I have the greatest thing of my life to date.
The value that I get from this video is priceless. This is beyond motivation. This is a pure treasure for someone who wants to change the world. Thank you Gary for sharing your thoughts.
Cannot agree more on this! It's truely a treasure for any founders.
Absolutely awesome!
Garry, I watch your video for inspiration at any time I feel down. These videos mean a lot for a tech founder/professional. I hope I still can access these videos when I'm 70 after 50 years. It would be perfect memories for life.
Garry you'll be the first to see my next deck
Who else noticed Gary reads every comment?
Ups to you
The dancing part of the video truly showcases the difference between a being leader vs a follower...well put video overall!
Incredible, thank you for reminding us to do great work Garry!
Appreciate you!
Hi Garry can I get your email address? Thank you.
This is one of the best videos from Garry that really connected with personally. As a DIY artist it's hard because you want everything to be so perfect while fighting doubt This is a big deal when you create your own videos, trying to do SEO while creating the songs sometimes you just got to let things fly and learn as you go.
I can't hold my tears back while watching this video. You inspire my to be bold and not give up for the thing that I have been always dreaming. Thank you Garry! I hope I can meet you someday.
Amazing video, Garry! So often we think/feel that it whatever we do needs to be perfect before showing the world... But this video challenges that! Will share with my friends and co-founder!
I have learnt so much from your short videos than I learned from many of the University courses that took me a semester. Thanks. Keep impacting our lives.
Ahhhh... Good stuff! This reminds me of when I'm so frustrated when I made mistakes that could easily be avoided with some guidance/code review from a senior, but yet I'm glad that I made it, and I fix it and move on. 🤘
We all NEED this encouragement! Thanks for the lift.
Great content, Thank you Sir.
A Garry Tan message. You just made my day! Thank you, friend.
Thanks for watching!
Sir, Garry Tan I'm following you since last year and you have change my life from zero to hero thanks a lot!
What a gem of a video in a Wednesday midnight. Thank you for such an amazing wisdom filled content that you're providing to us!
Garry man, all your videos are so motivating. A friend like you would be invaluable
I do really appreciate Garry's vision share. It's definitely one of the most valuable youtube channels you could subscribe to.
Thanks, Garry! you are actually the life mentor that I have not met yet, hope I could meet you one day in my life.
F*** perfection, embrace exploration at all cost! thanks Garry you made my day!
Thank you so much for these videos Garry. I didnt grow up surrounded by people with ambition or success. I've never had anyone to look up to and learn from. These videos are so eye opening and empowering.
Wheow! You struck me with affirmation that I don't need affirmation to start what I have been dreaming to create. I wanted to rationalize but yes f**k perfection, it has to start. I just need to begin it. Thanks, Gary!
Really glad I found this channel Garry. Literally the only bell notification I have turned on on UA-cam :)
just found your content and its super inspiring! I'm trying to start this whole youtube thing and its cool to keep in mind that 'if you poke the world, the world pokes back' hahaha time to create a movement... cheers Garry!
Your videos are like my check points, i come to it to remember.
This man just drops knowledge, still think this the most valuable channel emerging on UA-cam. Go Garry
So valuable. It’s great to see in a world full of course a man with true in-depth experience is mentoring us through his videos.
Brother Garry, I love and am super inspired by your vlogs of words of wisdom and knowledge.

I watched this video 20+ to fully grasp. But it's fun to listen such an insight and under the skin momentum of making a different experience . I m also a designer and trying to make a dent in this life. Hope for the best and enjoying my work from the bottom of my heart. That's true. I felt a real connection of these videos.
I just discovered your channel today and I really love it! Thanks for your videos!!
Just outlined this video and your Stop Chasing Money video. Gold! Thank you so much for organizing your thoughts and articulating everything so clearly. Love the Steve Jobs quotes/videos!
You and your channel are absolute gems. Thank you for doing what you do
thank you, Garry
Fabulous Garry .. I am in process of starting a social movement and this was so well put and incredible timing .. Love your videos
That clip of "First leader and first follower" was so good.
This is the type of content that makes me smash the bell icon. Thank you for this and please keep it up!
thank you soo much for the videos... one of the best thing happened to me after Justin's UA-cam channel !!!!
is this my new favourite youtube channel???? ammmmazing content
Dude, yes! 🤘 I was literally JUST thinking over the weekend how my hardcore punk rock youth and upbringing has a lot to do with my love for start ups and my drive to be a founder. Tech startups and their founders are on a course to disrupt the status quo, as was I in my youth as a young anarchist punk rocker. Being a founder will be a way to keep my youth spirit alive and hopefully change the world for the better.
Thanks! Garry. It gave me a great motivation to stick to my plan rather than seek approvals from others. So inspirational content 👍
Absolutely amazing! How have I not come across someone like you?
Love this advice! It's something I've learnt going through this. Just start getting something out there!
Thank you really, that helped a lot
brilliant advice 💯
Gary, thanks for putting out excellent, free, educational content! Super inspiring for the next generation of founders.
YASSSSSS!!! Thank you! Thank you! Starting a movement 🤩
after the first 20 sec, I was convinced to quit my job and go full time on my project., thank you
Garry this is an amazing video. So many people have ideas and plans but never execute. The key is to start.
Reminds me of tony Horton’s p90X program if anyone reading this remembers it! “The hardest part is pressing play “
After that it’s easy !
Gosh, am I glad I subscribed to this channel. Good content, well thought out Great ideas and excellent practical advice.
