Dan, are you happy? I know this may seem like an odd question to ask you, but after watching loads of you amazingly intelligent and focused content, I never see you smile. You are driven and intense, ‘I get that, but ‘I hope you have some simple joy in your life. Thank you so much for sharing the level of detail that you do and for trying to help us be a better version of ourselves. Take care dude.
Yeah, who knows what he does offline, we really know Dan only through his videos. It could be just how he decided to present himself to his public, or maybe that's just who he is, an intense guy. Or is just a moment in his life where ain't nothing funny to him but his business.
As someone with a Bachelor of Education, 10 years of teaching, a Master of Education and decades of writing experience, including copywriting and lyrics, I can say, “You’re a very impressive teacher Dan.” If I could award you with a modern e-teaching certification, I would. Qualified and certified. Curious to know about the learning environment in your home growing up. 🧠
I bet you've been told this a thousand times, but whenever i need to learn something, you make a video about. Its just like magic. And for that I will be forever gratefull. Thank you from my heart.
Writing is something I loathe, and am very resistant to. But its been bashed into my head for the last week and several times today. That is God telling me this is how I grow.
There are lots of ways to write. Try a bunch of things until you find what works. I loathed writing until I found the right frameworks and writing groups. Since the writing class I took in October, I’ve written and published 17 weekly essays
I am overwhelmed by the amount of content and wisdom and generous sharing in this video. Dan, you are gold. I will be keeping up with you, and you absolutey will be the next source of puchases I make towards "becoming everything I can be."
@actiona419 awwww is somebody jealous of someone else's success? Well, the world needs ditch diggers. I'll send you a shovel if you can't get one. Hearts and chocolates for you. 🍑🍑🍑🍑🍑🍑💩💩💩💩💩💩
Hey Dan, been seeing your videos pop up on my feed for quite a while but have finally started tuning in and watching. The amount of value you deliver is honestly astounding. Thank you for your hard work. Its amazing you are giving out this info for free.
Waw! 😅✨ Went on IG straight thinking that I had missed a reel - The surprise of you specifically merging the animation skill for the YT audience to promote the book - What a touch! 🤓✨ Speechless 👏🏾
Ask yourself today: * Is my name written in the book of life? * If I were to die today will I go to heaven or to hell? * Have all of my sins been forgiven? * Am I in a right relationship with God? * Have I been saved from my sin and the eternal consequences of sin? * Am I spiritually satisfied? * Am I living in victory over sin, the world, the devil? * Have I come to know God’s love for me? * Have I been delivered from darkness? * Have I received the Holy Spirit? * Have I been born again spiritually? * Do I have fellowship with Christ? * Do I come boldly before God in prayer? * Am I cured of all of my anxiety? * Am I at peace with God? * Do I have inexpressible joy in my heart? * Am I longing for my future home in heaven? If yes, then you’ll be spending your eternity with the Lord. If no, then you should be crying out to God to save you.
This was so helpful! Thank you for all your amazing contributions and insights! I'm learning so much from you and really enjoying The Art of Focus as well. Cheers!
You are just the absolute kindest and best version of a young entrepreneur I can possibly imagine. And you get more empathetic and intuitive by the year. You are a triumph. A lot of what you say changes my entire day and life trajectory and I thank you deeply. Thank you for sharing your wisdom, success, and challenges for as long as it makes you happy to do so. It really changes my life direction towards what I want to be and whom I want to become. ❤
First time here, Love your ideas,I mean your work. Hard to be in a 3rd world country, where poverty is your daily norm. Don't even know what to do with my life,honestly it really sucks. Wish I can enroll in your course but sadly I'm worse than broke. I looked at your page,scrolled and watch 3 of your videos, It's a nice and honest manuscript of a gifted writer like you Now, I will study and try to learn from your content I really wanted to change the course of my ship, So, I will digest everything you have written. Wish me luck, brother. Hope I'll make it. I hate living on a 200 dollars month's worth. Kudos.
@@lukasluan10 I once heard during the pandemic that your money lost its value by 50% it feels kinda scary. But you can be footballer and be set for life lol
Third world countries have massive opportunities which unfortunately we dont see due to lack of interest or just not looking hard enough. Third world countries are not like an american dream but they have resources like water land minerals wild life and a youthful population which requires advice. Just made an investment that will earn me 3,717.51 United States Dollar in less than 1 year passively.. not much but its a good way to start..I also trying other issues.. Third world countries have their problems but so do so called rich countries.. imagine if Mike Tyson had investing in Agriculture in Africa....Good luck to everyone
The future is unknown, yet so are we. Shine a light on your own path and others may follow, the world shall be inherited by the teachers but first you must teach your self, whoever is reading this you know what needs to be done so do it...
This guy is a beast! Where were you when I needed this guidance back in 2003! I was way ahead of my time, but didn’t know where to turn. I struggled in 2009 and my wife left me lol. I woke up in 2011, but got distracted. I got remarried in 2016 and got distracted again, but this time I discovered the power of writing. I did twelve books on Amazon, but didn’t promote well. My web and graphic design business failed. I went into educational products. Did good until pandemic threw me off. Now I’m back with a vengeance and more guidance from people like you. Imagine where I could have been if I had direction from back is 2003.
💯🎯 *Dan Koe's mind is above the standard of this world.* And don't beat yourself up about the past. You still have life, will and hope to course correct your future. I pray you get things right and actually ace it this time around.
Hi Dan, I recently started watching your videos. I haven't created content in over a year because I felt stuck and overwhelmed. You have truly inspired me and for the first time in a long time I started writing again! Thank you so very much for your amazing and energizing content! 😍😊🎉
Superb content and deliverablity Dan Koe! I purchased your book on the art of focus. Impressed by your wisdom! Thank you for the emphasis on writing as the secret to success. Wishing you longevity, joy and zen, Dan! ☮️❤️✨
"Choosing a topic you can't shut up about" This is perhaps the best advice of the video. Also, what you can't shut up about may NOT be the same as what your most knowledgeable about. Passion vs. education. Thanks for these insights, Dan.
When someone tells me we don't need a coach or mentor to improve our skillset, how should we call someone like Dan? The structure of this video is a GOLD! Once again! Thanks for your guidance!
@Write_Me_Now_Digit_Above2 what do you for now? When you talk about insights! Teach what you already know to create pure gold and create wisdom! Everybody should realize we are wisdom machines. Because in order to improve who we are, we got to identify our weaknesses and wisdom will come from there.
You are not your projects. You are not your relationships. You are not your goals. You will never rise above your anxiety/depression/ helplessness etc, if you'll keep binding your sense of wellness to external things. Doesn't matter if they're positive or negative. Freedom lies within your soul. Professional fulfillment and/or financial security are merely forms of freedom, but they're not the Ultimate form of freedom.
External things are required but you are correct that spiritual joy is different from material satisfaction as the latter always has scope for creating anxiety as soon as (or some time later) we achieve what we desired.
I find this coincidental. I'm at a point in my life where I've really had to lean on writing to keep myself going. I don't have much more to lose in life so I write a lot to keep things in perspective. I feel like it's the last thing you have at the end of the day. Your thoughts and the words that make them up. Writing is a very powerful tool. If I was ever completely down and out I would keep some pens and a lined note book and I would write.
Each night I wake up, pick my up journal and head over to Dan Joe's UA-cam channel jotting down nuggets of wisdom. It's with sincere hope that I testify probably in 5 month' from now how much of value consuming Dans content has brought me where I am(where I'll be hypothetically speaking) 🎉. 🎉🎉... I know I'm not alone on this.
This information is legit. I fell back on writing as a skill because it was the one thing that I had always enjoyed in school. Because of that, even though it was hard to explain to family and friends, it has led to my best life. If you can communicate clearly, especially with complex ideas, people will gravitate around that. STEM wouldn't exist without writing. :) I love how practical your video is.
*Jeeeeez!!!🙇* *The amount of value of in this 29 mins video is inestimable.* I spent hours watching it to write the action plan I need to take my brand to the next level.

Now it's time to metabolize all these into something productive 🏋️♂️ *Dan Koe is a GENIUS*
I had never heard of you or seen any of your content before this video. After watching this video I bought your book. I am not the kind of a person that goes around buying books and courses. I have bought maybe 10 books in my entire life. This video resonated with me like nothing else. Just the fact that you managed to get ME to buy your book is in itself proof that I need to start doing this. I will copy the sh*t out of your methods and start writing. You got me dude.

Someone made me wonder how unreal the concept of anxiety and stress and negative emotions could be for someone on the path of success and made me feel terrible and unworthy for going through it. 1:26 hit me. Going through a tough stage. I know I'll make it out of this
@DanKoeTalks I think there might be a misspelling in the free dropbox file. First slide, the bottom: "These slides alone can and should FROM the foundation..." Shouldn't it be "FORM" instead? Sorry if I'm wrong, still learning English. And thank you so much for everything!
Jeeeeez!!! The amount of value of in this 29 mins video is inestimable. I spent hours watching it to write the action plan I need to take my brand to the next level.

Now it's time to metabolize all these into something productive ️️ Dan Koe is a GENIUS
I’m also (obviously) incredibly impressed with the amount of amazing content you pulled off all these years. It is helping me so much moving forward. I was just wondering what your experience is on rest. I’ve been struggling for months to calm down my mind so I can sleep at night, I keep experimenting all different things (meditation, amount of coffee during the day etc), but I feel like my mind is just telling me that night is the period when all my creativity comes out and I’ve no other option than adapting my routine if I confirm it within the next days. What are your thoughts? Thank you so much for everything Dan, keep up with the brilliant work, and mostly living a great life ☺️
Doesn't ChatGPT remove the necessity for many writers? At the very least, doesn't it dramatically lower the barrier to entry of becoming a writer and hence lower the value?
Yes I was thinking about taking a grammar course, because I’ve been struggling to make my writing more juicy and vivid. And not so straight to the point.
What you’re saying here is also an excellent solution to songwriting where you write lyrics but they don’t ‘attach’ to other people in the outside world, they’re just your own internal mumbling written down and sung out, and a lot of budding songwriters write lyrics that don’t ‘connect’ yet - making them a story is the key, and the chorus is simply the periodically repeated advert for it itself - yes, a song is it’s own advert, I almost said ironically there but there’s no such thing… …ironically
I would love to suggest one thing ....for the people who are first timer here or New to writing Please plz watch the video twice or more ... The content in the video is tooo much valueable to be free i want all of you to absorb it, use it...❤ Good luck for future y'll
Dan, are you happy? I know this may seem like an odd question to ask you, but after watching loads of you amazingly intelligent and focused content, I never see you smile. You are driven and intense, ‘I get that, but ‘I hope you have some simple joy in your life. Thank you so much for sharing the level of detail that you do and for trying to help us be a better version of ourselves. Take care dude.
I've seen him smile once. It looks to me like he is just professional with his videos.
Reminds me of some people I know who are on anti depressants.
@@richardsimba1313 he just always seems so intense, there needs to be more fun in his life too :)
Yeah, who knows what he does offline, we really know Dan only through his videos. It could be just how he decided to present himself to his public, or maybe that's just who he is, an intense guy.
Or is just a moment in his life where ain't nothing funny to him but his business.
@@justincase4812 If it helps.. We wish him the best tho

If I could award you with a modern e-teaching certification, I would. Qualified and certified.
Curious to know about the learning environment in your home growing up. 🧠
oh dear it's a marketing strategy not someone who really want others to grow h🤣
So the video has no value because of that?
@@growwithanshumanat least he's selling us something. What are you selling? 😂
The best marketing strategy comes from wanting others to grow@@growwithanshuman
@@growwithanshuman everybody gotta get paid. Pairing $$$ with self-actualisation and self-transcendence is the most fulfilling way to do it.
I bet you've been told this a thousand times, but whenever i need to learn something, you make a video about. Its just like magic. And for that I will be forever gratefull. Thank you from my heart.
He found his audience and welcome to algorithm. Dan is the man.
Writing is something I loathe, and am very resistant to. But its been bashed into my head for the last week and several times today. That is God telling me this is how I grow.
🙏
Its not God, its Dan telling you that
@@TraciLMiller 🤣
There are lots of ways to write. Try a bunch of things until you find what works. I loathed writing until I found the right frameworks and writing groups. Since the writing class I took in October, I’ve written and published 17 weekly essays

Who replied and what's written? Can't view the reply due to unending UA-cam's technical glitches in India.
Hey Dan, been seeing your videos pop up on my feed for quite a while but have finally started tuning in and watching. The amount of value you deliver is honestly astounding. Thank you for your hard work. Its amazing you are giving out this info for free.
Lol you're cute
This guy is so inspiring, motivating and provides useful advices for all of us, let’s all support him to reach 1million and more subscribers🙌🏼❤️

Watching your videos show me how much knowledge I lack . I Love people that are more smarter than me
Dan Koe, all I can say is Thank you.
Waw! 😅✨ Went on IG straight thinking that I had missed a reel - The surprise of you specifically merging the animation skill for the YT audience to promote the book - What a touch! 🤓✨
Speechless 👏🏾
Starting to look forward to these synthesizer Sundays ✍🏾
The authenticity is inspiring 🙏🏽 thanks for sharing.
Fantastic information - love the way you are literally doing exactly what you lay out in this video - time to implement on my end, thank you.
Ask yourself today:
* Is my name written in the book of life?
* If I were to die today will I go to heaven or to hell?
* Have all of my sins been forgiven?
* Am I in a right relationship with God?
* Have I been saved from my sin and the eternal consequences of sin?
* Am I spiritually satisfied?
* Am I living in victory over sin, the world, the devil?
* Have I come to know God’s love for me?
* Have I been delivered from darkness?
* Have I received the Holy Spirit?
* Have I been born again spiritually?
* Do I have fellowship with Christ?
* Do I come boldly before God in prayer?
* Am I cured of all of my anxiety?
* Am I at peace with God?
* Do I have inexpressible joy in my heart?
* Am I longing for my future home in heaven?
If yes, then you’ll be spending your eternity with the Lord. If no, then you should be crying out to God to save you.
Doesn’t God invite you to take agency in your own life too?
Thank God there is someone online that speaks truths and is not burned. You are a light source. Thanks.

I looked at your page,scrolled and watch 3 of your videos,
It's a nice and honest manuscript of a gifted writer like you
Now, I will study and try to learn from your content
I really wanted to change the course of my ship,
So, I will digest everything you have written.
Wish me luck, brother.
Hope I'll make it.

We've come to a crazy place in the West if 28 minutes is "a very long video".
I've been in meetings that took 5 hours...
Hi Dan, I recently started watching your videos. I haven't created content in over a year because I felt stuck and overwhelmed. You have truly inspired me and for the first time in a long time I started writing again! Thank you so very much for your amazing and energizing content! 😍😊🎉
Superb content and deliverablity Dan Koe! I purchased your book on the art of focus. Impressed by your wisdom! Thank you for the emphasis on writing as the secret to success.

Bro. I am so grateful to be alive at the same time as you. I want to become just like you.
"Choosing a topic you can't shut up about"
This is perhaps the best advice of the video.
Also, what you can't shut up about may NOT be the same as what your most knowledgeable about.
Passion vs. education.
Thanks for these insights, Dan.
Gotta say I've been following for a little bit I've watched almost all the videos in the Playlists atleast once if not 3 times now I'm taking notes
When someone tells me we don't need a coach or mentor to improve our skillset, how should we call someone like Dan?
The structure of this video is a GOLD!
Once again!
Thanks for your guidance!
@Write_Me_Now_Digit_Above2 what do you for now? When you talk about insights! Teach what you already know to create pure gold and create wisdom!
Everybody should realize we are wisdom machines. Because in order to improve who we are, we got to identify our weaknesses and wisdom will come from there.
Appreciate you and the way you write, speak and share information! Thank you for teaching us how you do it!

Yay, new video! Thanks, Dan! 🎉
Cheers to experience, content and copywriting skills. Thanks for directing!
THE WISDOM BRO HAS POSTED ❤
Dan Koe is on the top of it to listen to for 2024. Also I just received my copy of The Art of Focus.
1. Start of the video was very motivation enducing
2. Writing is a very valuable basic skill
3. Vision is a great skill for intrinsic motivation
I find this coincidental. I'm at a point in my life where I've really had to lean on writing to keep myself going. I don't have much more to lose in life so I write a lot to keep things in perspective. I feel like it's the last thing you have at the end of the day. Your thoughts and the words that make them up. Writing is a very powerful tool. If I was ever completely down and out I would keep some pens and a lined note book and I would write.
Dude, that was good.
Thanks for sharing so unselfishly.
best motto to begin my week!!!!!! thanks dan

I love how you promote writing by writing . Wrting is the s-kill . Thank you
That's some real organic content, in your video itself you demonstrated your framework, you're encouraging a lot, hats off to you
I love your animated shorts, but this intro was something else! The flow of animations and sounddesign is just perfect!
My first Dan Koe video! I am so impressed. I will be deep diving into your content and you better believe I am taking notes ! ⚡️

The Power of Writing: Unleashing Your Potential
Someone made me wonder how unreal the concept of anxiety and stress and negative emotions could be for someone on the path of success and made me feel terrible and unworthy for going through it. 1:26 hit me. Going through a tough stage. I know I'll make it out of this
@DanKoeTalks I think there might be a misspelling in the free dropbox file. First slide, the bottom: "These slides alone can and should FROM the foundation..." Shouldn't it be "FORM" instead? Sorry if I'm wrong, still learning English. And thank you so much for everything!
Jeeeeez!!!
The amount of value of in this 29 mins video is inestimable.
I spent hours watching it to write the action plan I need to take my brand to the next level.
Man overdelivered a ton of light bulbs for me to squash any overwhelm I had.
After listening to the podcast, I had to come here and watch the video so as not to miss any visuals.
Now it's time to metabolize all these into something productive ️️
Dan Koe is a GENIUS
@Dan Koe! Love your content dude! Keep it coming.
Instantly a hit ima have to show people this
sheesh first video i come across, posted 3 hours ago, and i'm subscribed
Thank you for appearing on my home page
I’m also (obviously) incredibly impressed with the amount of amazing content you pulled off all these years. It is helping me so much moving forward. I was just wondering what your experience is on rest. I’ve been struggling for months to calm down my mind so I can sleep at night, I keep experimenting all different things (meditation, amount of coffee during the day etc), but I feel like my mind is just telling me that night is the period when all my creativity comes out and I’ve no other option than adapting my routine if I confirm it within the next days. What are your thoughts? Thank you so much for everything Dan, keep up with the brilliant work, and mostly living a great life ☺️
Dan, I’ll be honest with you. Chapter 1 of this just made me your follower indefinitely
Awesome Dan! Awesome!When we focus on what we love ad believe in we create REALITY!!!
The hook was really good at the beginning of the video.
Doesn't ChatGPT remove the necessity for many writers? At the very least, doesn't it dramatically lower the barrier to entry of becoming a writer and hence lower the value?
Yes I was thinking about taking a grammar course, because I’ve been struggling to make my writing more juicy and vivid. And not so straight to the point.
a skill yall need i think is to not sit through 30 minutes of yapping and get a youtube video summarizer
Just say your attention span is cooked
Thank you for providing all of this for free!
YES IT IS WHAT WE WANT!
What an upgrade fantastic!
Your voice make me feel so sleepy after i have listening for a while BUT your Content is so AMAZING. Thank you very much for creating this video.
Dan the 21st century philosopher you a goat bro ✨
These are some of my favorite videos to take notes on. Love it Dan. Just got the masters course.
As a writer this kind of talk about writing is both interesting and offensive to the craft
Dan, very interesting
The only thing I can say is thank you for sharing a very nice thoughts... Keep up the good work!
Good luck...
I Don't know how to thank you for all these valuable content. Pure gold
I can’t believe it took me so long to find this guy unbelievable I don’t find this before 🎯🎯🎯
You have no idea how much I needed to hear this right now
I remember when this channel was less than 50k subs
What you’re saying here is also an excellent solution to songwriting where you write lyrics but they don’t ‘attach’ to other people in the outside world, they’re just your own internal mumbling written down and sung out, and a lot of budding songwriters write lyrics that don’t ‘connect’ yet - making them a story is the key, and the chorus is simply the periodically repeated advert for it itself - yes, a song is it’s own advert, I almost said ironically there but there’s no such thing…
…ironically
if you don't have ideas read. great but how to find what to read? things that interest you? trending things? what is it that one should read?
I just picked up the Art of Focus Audiobook. Thank you Dan!
But as far as Tech is concerned, it is true, side and real experimental projects from agencies or software houses can be a breakthru!
Ordering The Mind
