I want to become financially independent, I'm 15 yo, I always wondered how you make money, and what kinda work?
1. therapy / investing in mental health
2. build your passion business - start that thing you've thought about a million times - fail and learn and fail and learn...
3. find a mentor
4. invest in bettering your skills
5. outsource stuff - trade money for time in your life
6. get rid of your crap - declutter
7. do something you think you can't do - train yourself to do hard things and get out of your comfort zone
8. get rid of a bad habit
9. go somewhere - go places and do things - make memories!
10. take care of your health - food and fitness
I’m so glad someone pointed out you have ADHD. So many of the things you have tried, your thinking outside the square, working for yourself, taking risks…… and the way you speak/move/bounce around I knew it from the 1st video I watched. As an ADHD mom of 3 ADHD kids, you will have the gift of hyper focus for the things you are passionate about. You will be able to research everything you are interested in to extreme levels. And yes, you will go for something that captures your imagination only to find you hate it or just can’t do it, but you will always learn from it. It is full of really good things plus the “never quite fitting into the box prescribed for you by society” can be one of the hard things. Most I know don’t go to college, but if they stay out of trouble they are inventive enough to become entrepreneurs and make more money than if they had gone to college. For inspiration look at famous people who have it -Richard Branson is one. Winston Churchill had it.
Lovely comment. ❤
"Training yourself to do hard things gets you out of your comfort zone". Great insight!
As an almost 50 year old, growing up in a time when ADD was almost unheard of, itt was tough being a very intelligent “bad” kid 😂. Learning how to capitalize on it is the key. I still struggle but having a very organized awesome wife who has permission to “steer” me has helped tremendously. Also the old fashioned linear trajectory of life is less socially enforced. Thanks for making these videos 💪💪💪
Why would people feel like they need to point out 'flaws'?? And I put 'flaws' in quote marks because they are not good or bad, just how your brain works - like being funny or shy or empathetic
Have a great Vacation! See you next week!
Thanks 🙏 on our way to the airport rn
I just finished a class today, there is no self sabotaging. You want what’s best for yourself just gotta remove roadblocks.
I think the quote is “if you haven’t failed, you haven’t tried”……it’s how we learn and how we build our resilience
Your channel has easily become my new favorite place to relax and decompress, to feel inspired and optimistic! You have built a beautiful life. 🙏🏻
One of my favorites of yours so far! Thanks for sharing, Gabe!
After investing in putting my authentic-self in the driver seat, this is what I discovered: 1. Check my patterns. Habits that are unhealthy (effecting my life negatively) are simply patterns. The ego loves when you invest in patterns. It knows I survived yesterday so it wants me to do it again today. It doesn't know what is healthy or unhealthy, it only knows patterns. Thankfully my authentic-self is stronger than a pattern. I invest in breaking them and create healthier patterns by investing in something different. Oh sure the thoughts moaned, groaned and bitched the first time, but I knew those very thoughts are the ones that got me into the predicament, and wouldn't get me out no matter how much I begged, pleaded, and cried. Thankfully I invested wisely and my authentic-self stepped up. The trick, I found is to be consistent, no matter what, and 100% committed and invested to the new pattern (this stops decision fatigue, excuses and justifications- the crazy thoughts driving patterns). 2. Invest in listening. It's amazing what I learn by listening and paying attention to others. 3. Invest in curiosity. It's amazing how much I have grown by being curious and have gained many more interests. Plus getting a different perspective about a multitude of subjects not only keeps me open-minded, but broadens my knowledge. 4. Invest in becoming aware when I am in my head (thoughts galore). Knowing how sneaky and manipulative the thoughts in my head are, throughout the day I will announce, "thinking," or "listening" or "wanting" or "complaining" or "judging" doing this is like turning on the light and catching a kids hand in the cookie jar. This causes whatever is going on within to cease. This also lets the thoughts (ego) know my authentic-self is witnessing and paying attention while not taking the bait. However when I get triggered/upset I will invest and sit with whatever is going on within. I get still and present and search my body for sensations. I will usually find and feel a tightness or squeezing, which I "allow" until it dissipates on its own. In order for me to heal unprocessed emotions from the past I have to feel them now. So, I allow anger and sadness to be felt without investing my energy. I just allow it to run its course. Immediately, after doing this I no longer feel the intensity of what just happened. Eventually I no longer get triggered about the same scenario, and for the most part it never happens again, or maybe it's because I don't notice it anymore. Not sure. 5. I've known since I was little that I am here to enjoy this experience and that I can trust Life. Knowing this taught me that any struggle is the ego resisting reality. Ego loves theatrics and it distorts and complicates everything when it is in control. To stop it, I either dissect the thoughts to find the truth, (Byron Katie The Work is an excellent investment *Free*) or I remove the emotions by looking at the facts of the situation only. Once the mind knows the truth it can't unknow it. 6. Acceptance is the ultimate place I want to invest in. Many times when I surrender to the truth, knowing it is really happening and there is nothing I can do about it, will lead me to acceptance. Once I accept it I instantly know how to move forward. Acceptance and truth/reality is where peace resides. There is safety in acceptance and truth. With the egos dramatics there is no safety to invest in. 7. I am invested and get excited about uncertainty. I look forward to not knowing but staying open to whatever the day may bring. If it appears unwanted I search until I can see the benefit or if I don't know what the benefit is I'll still agree with Life. The alternative is to invest my energy in the melodramatics of the ego which will only bring suffering on top of whatever is going on. No thanks. 8. Doing the right thing for me, takes an investment in courage. Not caring what others think of me, takes an investment in courage. Letting go of perfectionism and control, takes an investment in courage. The courage to be who I was intended to be. Living with the authentic-self in control allows me all the courage I need 9. Expectations will disappoint every time, it's a bad investment. Failing, however is a great investment to learn and grow. 10. Another bad investment is taking things personal. I invest in knowing it isn't about me. Thank you for your ten!
Your ten investments work for me. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you so much for this video, it's a great one all really solid advice and applicable to me rn
I just found one of my best mentors in you in terms of minimalism+ finance. Thank you.. you are very helpful 🙂👍
Thank you for this video mister! super!
Hello Gabe. Thank you for a wonderful video. I started to become a minimalist few yeas ago. It has been a relief! I realized I was keeping more stuff that needed to be taken away. Thank you for the advices. You are a champion! Always looking forward to your next video. Cheers.
It definitely is a relief 🔥
I can get discouraged easily and it can take me out for a few days until I either figure out what is the matter or change things up to stay encouraged.
I am 57 and just started a sit up challenge with my team, I plan on doing 50 sit ups a day for the whole month of Nov. Everyone sets their own target, it has to be a stretch target & if you don't do the target each day you have to donate a gold coin to a local mental heath support service. I started at 10 sit ups & increasing 5 each day to get to 50...currently at 30/day. Only 5 days till the start of November... wish me luck.
You have great insight, especially for being a young man. Keep up your fantastic work!
I love that you say it’s okay to fail so much I don’t start stuff unless I really know what I am doing. Your totally right everything we do is learning experience. Love your channel.
Thanks 🙏 it sucks and is scary at the time for for me it’s helped me so much
You are amazing! Thank you for the advice!
Thank you, Gabe! This video was great!
Awesome upload as always.., really can relate to everything that you have said.
Watched this at the right time - it’s like you read my mind. Have a good day peeps 💙
Gabe you are a true gift to me and our community! Keep us the awesome work Champ :)
Thanks John really appreciate it
Thanks Gabe!
Excellent. Thank you
You never disappoint!
I appreciate you!!!
Yay!!!! Don’t be afraid to fail! I love that you put that in here. Better to have tried and failed than never to have tried at all, because we also may succeed!! Getting comfortable with being uncomfortable should be a new lesson in elementary school.
Great video as always 👍👍👍👍
Thank you
I always enjoy you videos.
Thanks for watching!
Find a mentor…. You became my mentor Gabe. Your advices and suggestions does help me .
You have been one of my best minimalism mentors Gabe. Decluttering my home has been life changing. I love my simple home so much, I feel safer and more content. Working on decluttering the rest of my life to have time for what is most important for me. Removing FB from my phone gave me back an hour every day. Thank you!
This video actually took us 20 minutes to watch because we kept pausing to discuss 😂
So true!
Something I've been doing lately: I make a list every evening for the next day of stuff that needs to happen, and, that next day, I take the task that I really dread doing and I DO IT first. I mean, like pulling a tooth, jumping in ice water - just do it right away and get it over with. And it's really freeing. It's over, it usually takes a very short amount of time, and the rest of the day is much more pleasant. I'm to the point now that I often almost look forward to it, like Ok, I can do that, because I do it all the time - I'm successful with that method of getting crappy stuff done. Highly recommended.
Good advice
Hi Gabe
Great video
Could you make a video o some recommendations about how start a business on US?
Hello Gabe, been loving you’re videos, keep it going 💪🏽 I’m wondering if you can make videos on credit cards, debit cards, bank account tips and tricks that beginners should know.
Thank you for the help!
Great video buddy
Thanks reg
Hey there from the Czech Republic 🇨🇿. Love your videos, very informative and inspirational 👍. As a mother of a child with dyslexia I want to ask you - how come you read so much? Do you actually enjoy it? My daughter hates it so much. Did you have to push and train yourself? Any tips and tricks how to make it easier?
Where did you take your sales course? I love buying books. 😁🍒 Your videos are inspiring.
Your videos are inspiring. They both make me think and your advice is good for all stages of life. Example I am not at your stage. Raising babies earning extra for life and retirement. I am at retirement age. My goal now is trying to learn how relax and enjoy my new stage of life. It is hard to go from go,go go to enjoy and still go go. Boring if have no go go hobbies jobs. So back to your videos they inspire to still me do the go go parts. Ideas to help us retirees to stay movtaved to stay moving and going. Staying part of life. And enjoying my stage of life. Thank you from my ❤️.
These are so well done and concise. Your values are exceptional, imo. Living a conscious life - Yay!
Thanks 🙏
Fantastic video
Toastmasters did it for me; it didn't cost me anything. It was the hardest work I've ever done but it is by far the most rewarding.
There are a handfuls of channels that I’ve followed almost since their start - I believe I started following your channel when you were below 50 subscribers. It’s been really fun watching you get more comfortable in what you do. Congratulations on your success.
Thanks so much for watching me that long! That’s super cool
Awesome video 📹
I’m impressed you can do that leg exercise at the end bc I just fall over lol
Me too!
It’s not too hard. You start off by holding on to the back of a chair for balance and then just slowly lowering yourself to get used to the movement pattern. Over time you will build up the stabiliser muscles and the strength to do it. Eventually you will get it without the chair
The fact that you have ADHD is making me stay because I'm tired of getting advice from people who don't have ADHD and they don't have the same struggles, so their advice often doesn't work for me. Thanks for making good videos!
Gabe, you're a great inspiration to all of your followers! Liked your videos from the get-go!
Thank you. Very much.
Thanks 🙏 I appreciate you all
The first time I realized I had a mild dyslexia was when I set a table at a restaurant backwards. Keep people next to you so they can notice where you need help.
You have overcome🥰
I learn a bunch of things with you, and you don’t even know I exist too!
Well I do now :p
That’s hilarious I was watching a diff video of yours and said to myself “this guys is def ADHD” but I s to lol love you! That’s prob what makes you so awesome! ❤
Decluttering was GOLDEN for me! I totally agree.
I know after talking to someone at Liberty University they have counseling for people.
What is the song you use in lots of your videos please??? It's around 7 mins.. I lost the name of it, used to love putting on the 2 hour loop 😂😁
Lol... You've got Matt D's speech cadance down pat. 😄
Ehhh I wouldn’t let people diagnose you. Best advice. Don’t give that kind of behavior any of your attention. What do they know
I might throw ocd in there too. I relate to your videos.
I feel like I should watch this everyday
Awwwwww it's the chubby baby for me 😍😍
ADD is a huge gift! Use it.
watching from Hong Kong
Thanks for watching!
Now I'm overwhelmed with all the great advice I don't know where to start! 🤣🤣 great video! Thanks!
Lol 😂
Great vid Gabe! Investing in yourself is one of the most important things you can do, if you invest in yourself you will never regret it! Iam like you not a morning person so might have to try the 5 am one haha
It’s the best investment you can make
Hy hy man your teachings a gud
How do you start investing on a small busness
I'm studying both Atomic habits and Emotional intelligence books, paid £20 for the EQ test and man. I have never felt so close to God in all my life.
Love what you say about saving half an hour a day for yourself. Now I have to cut my UA-cam hours by 30 mins every day:)
YT can be addicting for sure
Same here. Addicted to UA-cam. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Only a medical professional can really say if you have something

Excellent video! Been watching your channel for a couple of years now, and it's pretty cool to see the quality consistently improve and to see your personality in them more. Fellow ADHDer here and sometimes seeing something new/taking a walk unlocks a part of my brain that can finally get the procrastinated "hard thing done". Or I just let myself be in nature for as much free time as I need and then scramble at the self imposed deadline 😅. Thanks for the valuable content
Hi I'm Tijay From Philippines
Hola!
ADHD is a condition ,not a problem..... It is manageable!
Hi Gabe. I know you would like to try acting. You look good on You Tube. I'm an independent playwright/filmmaker. Maybe one of these days you could read my play.
What software do you use to edit your videos?
Adobe premier
Yes Gabe, you do exist. LOL
😂
I wounder if scaler can teach me how to be a youtuber
When you invest time and energy into improving yourself, you become more knowledgeable, skilled, and confident.
Hey does anyone know the background song at 1:30?
Would you do a video about how you tackle procrastination? I suffer this from a lot, developed some methods (like deleting entertaning apps), but I'd love to know more about yours.
Sure that’s something I’m working on
@@GabeBult Great, thanks!
I second that. I know it's an ADD thing but geez I'm the worst.
As soon as something becomes a business it seems it ceases to become a passion.
awee! I do really appreciate all your videos. I can say that you can be a good mentor too to others. Hugs! 😊☁️
Aw Sugar you're fine,
Getting your house deep cleaned once a month... interesting you mentioned that.
I've looked into home cleaning and thought it was a rip off to have them come in frequently, I'll have to check out something like that to help me save some time around the house
Since you have a real estate agent license, you might enjoy managing short-term rental properties. If interested, let's chat! I'm in the industry.
Gabe-Just remember we are all humans who survived a global pandemic (and attempted insurrection in our nation). Give yourself the credit you deserve in recognition that all of us are so much more than our brain chemistry or our past. Sending hugs to you and yours!
Someone commented that you have ADHD? How rude! You're awesome just the way you are and proven by the fact that you have almost 200K subscribers! Keep your chin up! 🙂
@@krasna_jedza Are you a doctor or psychologist?
I can see that Gabe is hyper, a lot of energy. Nothing wrong with it?
I'm hoping you got a diagnosis after viewers suggested you may have adhd. Only professional can give you an official diagnosis! Great video as always
👍❤️
I have many UA-cam mentors. About two weeks ago I started cleaning areas of my home that annoyed me such as piles of clutter. Now Im having a harder time finding those areas because I made a list for myself of things I needs to do daily, and I stick to that list.

Hello
Long term investor’s know that the market and economy will recover eventually, and investors should be positioned for such a rebound, I gained $270k from bitcoin of 2021. Before the market crash and now am buying again, adding more at a time.Having a good financial advisor like Mrs Jocelyn Marie, it will add to your success in the crypto market.
I’m surprised you know her too. I’ve been making a lot of profits investing with her for a few months now.
Mrs Jocelyn changed my life because of the huge profits I got from investing with her.
I’m new at this, how can I reach your broker?
I was skeptical at first until I decided to try. It’s huge returns is awesome! I can’t say much.
Is it time for another baby video yet?
Yes why does Family think they deserve the right to all your time?
Barefoot on the trail? Tough feet.
Can you be my mentor?
A challenge you may not like: do 30 days of BBBE - it is all over youtube right now as a strict form of the carnivore diet. You can only eat Beef, Butter, Bacon, and Eggs. I highly recommend this for you specifically because of your issues with mental clarity, ADHD, and depression. Our brains run at their peak performance on ketones and this diet will get you there in about 8-10 days. I'm 12 days into my 30 days, started August 1st. I'm 63 and feel like I'm 30! 💞
