Your support over the last 8 years has taken us further than any of us ever thought we could get. The next videos are going to be some of the best this channel has ever seen and we're excited to take you alongside us in these incredible adventures. With Love from a group of weirdos that somehow made something really cool happen, Yes Theory
You all probably get this a lot, but I wanted to let y’all know that my brother found comfort in watching Yes Theory videos in the last few months of his life. We would stay up all night watching every video you all have posted, even rewatching them multiple times. I witnessed him find some form of peace in the end while he was suffering. Thank you all for giving me that peace after his passing earlier this year.
far from i enjoy their videos a lot and have been watching from the beginning. but the fac doesnt change that they got into money and semi fame with this stuf and will eventually move on @@Ge.no.va13
He was such a great member of the team and I missed a lot in the channel, even in this video. But I'm glad for what he did for us ! Same will be for Matt of course. I think I can speak on behalf of everybody when I say that we wish all of team the very best for their futur projects
"I truly believe that on each of our deathbeds, what we'll look back at is not the amount of things we accomplished, places we traveled to, or wealth we accumulated, but the depth in which we connected with those we love." Yes indeed.
I legit cried when I saw you guys made it « home ». I show your stuff to my students to teach storytelling and always end up showing them Project 30 videos to show how a brand evolves. I love seeing their faces recognize the streets of Montreal. I’m so proud Yes Theory was born here!
Seeing Matt in videos makes me SO SO SO happy. I love you guys from the bottom of my heart, thanks for being such a light in so many people's lives! Much love from Brazil!
I am 47 years old and I'm a week into my journey of saving myself. I listened to several of Matt's conversations and realized how much I had in common with that young man. A bit embarrassed that I'm 47 and I'm just understanding I have serious mental issues. I thank you gentlemen for being consistent with yourselves and with us.
Don’t be embarassed, my dad was diagnosed with bipolar and found out he had brain damage from a previous accident from when he was a child , and he is 57 years old. You are never to old to begin your self healing journey and I’m so proud of you for being able to even admit too yourself that you need help ❤ props g
No need to be embarrased at all, I started suffering from mental health issues at 27 after never having previously suffered, I'm 29 now and I'm still learning each day, it's an ongoing thing but you should be proud of yourself no matter what. At this early stage of it just take it day by day and be easy on yourself, you got this 👊
Hai. There's no need to feel embarrassed. I am 26 years old (soon to be 27) and i ve been suffering from mental health issues for the last couple of years. but i have learned a lot in this process. it just takes time and it is a self learning , continuously improving process. process it one day at a time sir. remember, you are not alone and also remember that each and every person in this world has a story and a long battle they are facing in their daily lives. Cheer up sir. You got this!!!
Dont be, you are amazing. The fact that you are able to accept the issues your dealing with is such an achievement. No matter how old or young you are. Accepting and facing the fears and problems we all have is a blessing. Now you can learn how to ‘heal’ yourself and be more self aware then ever before. It can be a rollercoaster sometimes, but don’t be hard on yourself. Give yourself time and love, you deserve it!
Don't be embarrassed. They say that life is a journey of learning about the world around you as well as a journey of learning about yourself. Everyone's journey will be different, but it doesn't change the destination. As long as you feel you are on your right path of healing, then you will eventually find your destination as long as you take small steps to get there. Don't feel bad if you stumble a bit or have to rest, and remember that many others are also on this road to give you a hand if you need it. You aren't alone.
I’ve been watching you guys ever since I was in high school and now I’m 24… it feels insane to be here with you guys. You all created a community like no other and I just want to thank you for including us as if we were family ❤
Same man. This goodbye also feels like a final goodbye from me. A goodbye to the part of Yes Theory that I fantasized over with the three of them being together. Now it's time to move on. Own adventures to start. New stories to tell. I sadly don't have the Yes Fam community, but there love and fraternity is unequaled.
My grandmother bought a book that came out on the day I was born, which she left a note inside of it just for me. I have a daughter on the way and she is expected to be here December 3rd. I just wanted to let you know that I will be buying your book so my daughter knows about the group I watched for so many years and has encouraged me to laugh at myself. Thank you Yes Theory, love you guys!
I’ve just watched this video 4 months later, and seeing this brought me to tears, it was so beautiful. You guys did a reunion with the mtl yes fam while you where here and I missed it coz I was feeling low, but I regret not going and showing you guys how much these videos mean to me. Love what you’re doing
I am a 54 year old Mexican lady, two days ago I discovered a video of yours, since then I have seen I think 10 more. I am in love with your achievements and the meaning of Yes Theory. This video is very moving, I hope you always continue with your achievements, you are an example of what is possible..
You guys have made a huge difference in my life in a very positive way. I got my new POV towards this world. And I'm just happy to be a part of your community. 💙
This video shows exactly why I don't think of Yes Theory as just another UA-cam channel I watch to pass time or learn something. Looking at these old photos of you guys, and your journey, I'm reminded of something that I know would be good for me but I hadn't done. Which is being ok with being vulnerable around people, that's the only way to find and form the kinds of connections that will enrich your life enough to be something which brings you joy even on your death bed. It's really not worth hiding your feelings to one day find yourself with people who never got to know YOU but only the image you let them know, and you lose sight of what your feelings even are when live long enough to fit an image. Well this was written half for me, and half for someone who might resonate with this. Anyways thank you guys for being you, Yes theory ♥️
I rarely leave comments in UA-cam videos or social media in particular. But I've been a fan/subscriber since the project 30 days the painting at the restaurant stuff, until you moved to LA and that new place you had, with TD joining and felt real sad when Derin moved away, and when the old LA apartment got demolished. I was in 1st years of college and now been living alone working, for few years and I admit I have not been watching your videos that much for adulting reasons. But this feel so surreal, I feel like I am saying hello and goodbye to a family member. All the nostalgic feeling situations back when I was watching your videos came back into me. I tried commenting before to have Derin comeback for few days and I'm just glad to see him again. And the newsletters of Matt is what gives me life, hope and new perspective in life everytime. Thank you so much for being part of my life and bringing this kind of warmth into my heart. Cheers to the new journey, and celebrate the history. Love y'all yes theory guys
I’m a 65 year old woman… feeling creepy I’m watching yr videos. But…. I have a son who had a gang of boys that I so enjoyed watching their crazy antics. I made sure my home was the place that they hung out. Each of u have a place in my heart and yr work has encouraged me to be a better person. Feeling grateful!!!
It isn't creepy. They actually have met so many people decades older than them that they find so relatable because they have similar passions and personalities. I think it's beautiful you're getting something out of their videos that brings you happiness. They would also be happy to hear that, I promise. They're all such sweet souls.
Hi Yes Theory! Mental health professional here. The work you guys have done is truly amazing. In a world where social anxiety is high, channels like yours that do things like this are so amazing! With social anxiety, one of the top treatment approaches in terms of successful outcomes is exposure therapy! Often, when we feel anxious in social situations, we want to avoid them. Unfortunately, this avoidance feels good in the short term but negatively reinforces feelings of anxiety in the long run -- you're basically telling your brain you can't handle the interaction. With general anxiety, much of the time we're helping people see that, "hey, those thoughts you're having might not occur or occur with the severity that you think." With social anxiety, we're showing people, "hey, what you think might happen *COULD* actually happen"' (because human behavior isn't always predictable), but if it did, could you handle it? What assumptions do you make about the interaction that impact your perception of the interaction? In mental health, this ability to endure these uncomfortable situations is called distress tolerance. The higher your distress tolerance, the less likely you are to let these social situations impact you and make you anxious. All of these exposure-type things you're doing is showing people that, hey, this discomfort can be *really* uncomfy, but it allows for so much growth!
I am not crying, you are crying 😢 such a beautiful video. Who would have thought a young man in a Montreal bedroom with big dreams and 3 other dreamer friends would create a movement that has inspired,motivated and transformed so many life’s. Thanks you for existing, thank for for saying YES and for never failing to seek discomfort. Ps. As a Canadian-Colombian who has also been enchanted with the city of Montreal, so proud of all started there 🍁
For me, this was what it was all about from the beginning on: Your friendship. Your connection. "Yes Theory" is just the vehicle you rode on, but it was you guys who were changing lives, including mine. Thank you so damn much.
Re-bienvenue à la maison, boys! It was really special to spend some time with Matt for his last Yes Theory Fam meet up in Montreal. A moment that I'll never forget. Thank you for everything. 🙏💙
As a Montrealer who has been watching for the past 8 years, all I can say is I’m so proud of you boys and how far each of you have come❤️ watching you guys be back where it all began made me smile so much but also brought tears to my eyes. Keep being a light to the world🙏🏼
Time flies! I was a 2nd year in university when this channel was created. Now I’m 27 and married. I’ve been watching your channel since then and this video was everything! Thank you for all these great videos guys🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Yes Theory has provided a different type of evolution in my life that I can’t fully explain. I brag about this channel to those around me as ppl wonder where my mindset of seeking discomfort comes from. Despite the channel being up for 8 years, I’ve only been apart of 6.5 years. I’ve seen how this channel has changed my mindset in life. Seeing Thomas and Matt in the cafe made my heart light up because it’s exactly how I pictured it after reading the chapter previews of Matt’s book. It was lovely to see Derin. I am only 10 minutes into the episode and I have plenty to express. Ugh I love this channel and group of guys. Thank you for creating such a wonderful community. I hope it remains pure, fresh, and happy for many more years. I hope others will eventually feel the same way. Edit: my heart feels so full after this episode. Tears actually dwelled up.
I've almost never dropped a comment on a UA-cam video before, but I simply can't leave this one. I first knew you guys in 2020, and yes, I might not be a day one follower. But I'm ever so grateful for how you carved a wonderful path in my life by teaching me to say yes to life! Back in 2020 it was really some rough times for me. Being a newly arrived international student in France in the midst of pandemic was the most challenging thing I've ever faced. Yet, those times also held some of the most joyful memorable epoch of my life : the best around Europe travelling experience cause it's my first time staying in strangers' house, hitchhiking, and having a real taste of humanity by saying YES. Ever since, I managed to adopt a more optimistic POV in the middle of a somewhat dark world I live in. So thank you guys for giving me new adventures and fresh air in life, keep on keeping on !! -Yoel
Just a few minutes in, and I'm legit in tears, dude. You all meant the world to me for the longest time. It's wild to see how you've all evolved. Yes Theory has been like a whole new level of transformation in my life that's kinda hard to put into words. Thanks to you, I've got this crazy sense of strength and confidence, and I can totally step out of my comfort zone. Feeling so grateful and amped to be part of the YesFam
This is incredible. Instead of mourning the loss of a co- creator & fearing the changing friendship dynamic. You are celebrating all of your adventures, your growth as a unit and every other life experience you were able to traverse as a team. Now you are moving forward to the next chapter of all of your lives with gratitude! Absolutely Beautiful 😊
I woke up this morning after being terminated from my job of six years because someone did not like my hair color. I am halfway finished obtaining my MBA. I am embarking on my a new chapter in my life. This video is what I needed. You guys have been my inspiration for over two years. I have y'alls logo tattooed on my hand as a reminder to see discomfort. Thank you guys so much! 😁
I had the chance to meet Thomas in Montreal many years ago. We spoke about some projects we were working on and i left that small 10 minutes conversation with a new outlook on how i was engaging with the people around me. Yes Theory has been life changing for me. Thank you, both the crew and yes fam, for the impact you've had on both me and the people of my generation. I can't wait to meet more of you in the coming years!
If you guys only knew back then how many people you’d be inspiring today. Thank you for sharing your roots with us, for continuing to grow and inspiring us through all of your adventures. To Thomas, Ammar, Matt, Derin, and all of the Yes Theory fam, it’s been a wonderful ride and we can’t wait to see what lies ahead. ❤
I cried seeing Derin, it brings back so many memories ! I’ve been a day one follower and this video is an absolut gem ! Looking forward to this next chapter 😊
The OG YES THEORY team will never be beaten! I love seeing videos with the 4 of you guys, brings back memories of this channel that'll never be the same.
Wow. This video made me so emotional. I started following you guys when I was 14 years old. Now I'm 18 and it feels like I grew up with you. I love watching your journey and your adventures. I think it's safe to say that I've seen all of your videos. It's so nice to see the original 4 back together! I'm an alpine skier and the moment when I realized I want to be the best was at the age of 14. That means I've been watching you throughout my journey and I think you made me the person I'm today. I have the words "seek discomfort" written in my heart and it motivates me to do uncomfortable things necessary to become the best in the world. I've got your "mantra necklace" around my neck every time I'm going 60 miles per hour down the mountain. It gives me the confidence I need. Your videos always cheer me up when I need it and they give me the feeling that I can conquer the world. Thanks to you guys my life makes sense. I'm excited for what comes next! THANK YOU!! Sending love from Czech Republic❤️🇨🇿
Been watching Yes Theory from day 1 and it is hard to fathom how far you guys have come, how many adventures you have documented, how much adversity has been faced, and most importantly how much of an impact you have had, not only on myself, but to millions of people across the world. I am so beyond proud, and cannot put into words how much gratitude I have for you and this channel. It has opened my mind and expanded my perspective on life and I have found myself more willing to seek discomfort every single day. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
It is December of 2024 and I JUST discovered your channel and am HOOKED! I am a Canadian living in Colorado and wanted to let you know what your videos are still inspiring viewers years after posting. I am inspired by your raw honesty, joie de vivre, brilliant storytelling and special ability to connect to people (both young and old) from different cultures all over the world! Thank you for offering such a gift to the world! I own a video production company and wanted to express how your storytelling has inspired me and brought back new passion for what I do. Thank you from the bottom of my heart! ❤️
I think a lot I love about this channel is that it sparks the inner me. I love the whole methodology about Yes Theory. A group of guys from all different walks of life who decided to live spontaneously, take risks, seek discomfort, and turn a blind eye to certain social norms. I love that! One of my favorite quotes is “And then there is the most dangerous risk of them all. The risk of not doing what you want, on the bet that you can buy yourself the freedom to do it later”. So why work a 9-5 in your home town when the world has so much to offer. This is what I love about Yes Theory. Talking to strangers to live in their apartment. Why? Because it’s different. Fear kills more dreams than failure ever will.
I know it's not the same, but just that YesTheroy was born in Canada makes me so proud! I am so excited to watch this final journey for Matt, although I wish he was never leaving, I'm so proud of him for being strong enough to do what's so hard to walk away!! Love this family you've created amongst yourselves, and the Yes Fam worldwide ❤
As I'm sitting here at work balling my eyes out as a 44 year old Man watching your growth seeing where it all started. I feel proud of you as if you were my own family. The team have helped me grow. I used to be a big believer in what if? in my view very similar to yes theory. What if i didn't do this or that? Let me tell you tho, Every video i watch - (And as soon as each video comes out) helps that spark in me grow again. I believe in your yes theory movement but the hardest thing is to step into seeking discomfort for the first time again. I have plans to seek discomfort again but sadly haven't crossed that imaginary line yet. I would love you all to come and see New Zealand one day and help the movement grow here. Lots of Love from a Man who has learn't that its OK to cry and show emotion. Love Ya all!!
I still feel he is still struggling something more deeper. I hope he is ok and wish him all the success.And if he is going through something, hope he gets the help he needs.
Don't you all feel it? Like this life isn't offering us everything it's meant to be. Something is off, something is wrong. Even those who are "successful", still, somethings missing. And this feeling, this realization, often separates you from those you love. Because you sense and know, there is something deeper and more pressing here, that we should be talking about and dealing with. And you want nothing more than to express it to those around you, and do something about it, with them. but they often don't understand. Or sometimes they might get little pieces of it, but they stop there and don't want to delve further. Seems like people are very slowly, catching on. some of us are ahead of the curve. It is painful and isolating.
@@SuperiorRobyn That's called Depression and you aren't 'ahead of the curve', you're suffering. I've been there, depression doesn't make us special. Seek help, talk to your friends and your family. Take a breather, do what you enjoy!
@@smithynoir9980 nah this world is the bad place you don't get it. Everything is backwards here. Depression is normal reaction to living in this world.
I came across a Yes Theory video for the first time a few years ago (I think the “yes” tattoo episode), and became a subscriber after watching it. These guys are complete strangers to me, yet they feel like close personal friends. It is absolutely amazing to see how far they’ve come since the creation of Yes Theory. I was filled with emotions watching this video, from tears to laughter. There is something cinematic about this 21 minute video. The contrast in quality from the older videos to what they are now is incredible. The older clips of the guys with their lack of facial hair made this feel so nostalgic. It is awesome that you three got the chance to go back to where it all began for this full-circle moment. The impact Yes Theory has created is so spectacular, and I’m willing to bet that millions of people have been encouraged to seek discomfort in their own ways. Despite the darkness and despair in this world, it’s assuring knowing that there truly are wonderful people on this planet. There are now over 8 billion humans inhabiting this earth. That’s a lot of people. Conversations are waiting to happen even with people you may not know. Thank you to Yes Theory for existing and creating beautiful content. I wish everyone reading this the best with whatever they may be dealing with in life. Humans innately do not like to be uncomfortable, but as this channel has proven, discomfort can lead to growth, adventures, friendships, and memories. Life is too short to be comfortable all the time. Take the risk, get out of your comfort zone, and see what this world has to offer. I can’t wait to read Matt’s book when it releases next month. Cheers to Matt for grinding the book out after the last two years, cheers to Yes Theory for starting this community, and cheers to everyone who is still reading this long comment ❤
Was anyone else feeling tears about to fall when watching this or was it just me? Truly a really nice tribute to what you guys have created and I am thankful to live in the time to be able to witness the journey of Yes Theory over the years.
The ending, when they were together in the same bed they exchanged their first brojobs in 8 years earlier had me an emotional mess! 😭❤️
Рік тому+7
Yes Theory changed my life. You are what motivated me to leave my couch and go see the world. I'm now on country #25 and I've met people from over 100 countries. "A stranger is just a friend you've never met" ❤ From the bottom of my heart, thank you.
You guys have absolutely changed my life… I’ve never been so inspired. As a cinematographer and photographer you’ve really inspired and challenged my thoughts on the fact that you can do something that makes zero sense to others but makes totally ridiculous transformations in the way we view the world around us. I sincerely hope I can travel with you guys one day.
Man you guys have done so much good. I found this channel in 2019 after I had a late term pregnancy loss. I didn’t want to get out of bed. With my depressed mood I looked forward to your videos as I still do to this day. You made me smile again and helped me through the hardest time in my life. I will be a forever fan. I hope that as an LA resident I see you guys walking down the street one day. Thank you all for being such amazing human beings.
NGL I teared up a little because I started watching YES Theory during the most difficult times of my life where everything felt meaningless, and this Channel gave me inspiration to make it meaningful. I love you guys, still waiting for you to knock on my door on one of your adventures.
You are a beautiful group of souls, who inspire greatness in the world. 'Losing' Matt is sad, but he'll always be a part of the family. He'll be free to continue to inspire the world in his own way. Keep shining brightly guys ❤
It’s scary that they eventually break apart but it’s part of our life, people change and grow apart. So might as well appreciate it while it lasts. Thank you guys for everything you did. You really changed my life for the better
been a Yes Fam member since 2018 - yall really changed my life n my mindset. I'm not the same person I was before I discovered your videos and I just want to thank you all for the gift you've given us. we love you guys
A nice detail in this video is that - despite your YT celebrity status - it’s not given that strangers let you sleep in their apartment. So the way you gave back to them with the gifts for their apartment really made a difference here. It wasn’t expected, the dudes were just happy to let you in. But they still got a reward for being nice, for saying ‚yes‘.
It was truly special to watch the three of you share this moment. I've been around for years and you continue to deeply inspire me in different ways. What a huge thing. I can only imagine what that must have felt like for you, Thomas, being back in the space of that first spark.
Couldn't stop smiling throughout this video. So glad you guys came. So grateful to have been able to see Derin and Matt. Was already gonna get the book but NOW, Matt needs to do the flip
I am so full of smiles and soaked with tears watching this video. You guys didn't just explore different parts of the world but have taken us with you in the journey as if we were there with you. This video gives a more clear meaning to why we love to watch you guys!
You have not only inspired me but an entire generation to go out in the world and connect with people. I just want to say thank you for everything you guys have done for the world ❤❤❤
i wasted all my life on youtube, i been in every side of youtube and yours is the most positive one i came across and keep coming back to!! You guys are amazing! i never leave comments but heres yalls you guys deserve it
Feel like we've all been there along for the ride with you guys. Bittersweet is a perfect word for these feelings, but with a little bitterness, is a ton of sweetness. LOVE THE YES FAM.. From Savannah, GA
This was the breath of fresh air that I needed today. Thank you so much for the years of inspiration and happiness that you have provided everyone in this community.
I landed in montreal when first moving to canada from germany. Seeing that airport had me emotional. Grand father passed the year after me and my family moved when i was 8. Im now turning 24 in january and on the verge of going back to germany. I dont want to go back but after trial and error, homelessness and many other struggles im still no closer to living my dream life in canada with friends and family. Even tho this country is pretty well all i know and i spent nearly my whole life here i feel i have no options left and the thought of leaving my family and friends is the most discomfort ive ever experienced. Yet i still try to stay positive and share great vibes with everyone. Its hard knowing not only did my journey start in that same airport as your guyses journey but hearing of your adversity gives me hope that i can make it through and come out successful on the other end. Thank you yes theory for showing me discomfort can be crippling but if used right it will be the greatest asset and tool to propel yourself ahead. In the face of struggle never give up always adapt and over come. Friends make the journey easier and never be afraid to step out of your bubble. It is when we are uncomfortable that we truelly find ourselves and you learn you can over come any obstacle. Thanks again for giving me hope and motivation.
I watched you since grade school while searching for string theory, now im graduate of astronomy and currently working as a developer. Time really do flies ❤❤❤
You shaped all of our lives in the past 8 years, maybe more than you and all of us can imagine. Thanks for being there so far and can't wait to see where it's going.
you guys are the most genuine guys ever :")) being vulnerable in front of the camera isn't something everyone could do but you guys are not afraid to do so :")) this video is so extremely nice, thanks for reminding me the importance of never forgetting good memories and where we came from :")
Growing up in my small island sandbar where I never saw anything besides the beach, the sound, and this one highway that was the path elsewhere, we never really left. I’d been to probably three states and visited China once to meet family. During COVID, locked in our homes during my first year of college, I was living vicariously through old yes theory videos with a vision and urge to travel. After COVID, these last two years, I went to Europe for the first time, solo traveled across Italy for 2.5 weeks without speaking the language, went back with friends and am now studying abroad in Spain and traveling to other European countries weekly. Thank you, Yes Theory. For inspiring so many like me, to dream, to travel, and to seek discomfort. I would’ve never had such inspiration or courage to live the way I do now. Excited for the future of Yes Theory! ❤
I just preordered a hard signed copy! I'm so excited. You guys LITERALLY saved me. I thank you all so much for all you've done not just for me, but everyone around the world you've impacted. Thank you so much for all the hard work you all put into these amazing videos and journeys you've taken us on. I'm currently trying to get over my own discomfort (random fear of flying after I experienced my first panic attack) and you all have been helping me try to get over this. Thank you all again for everything you do. Maybe one day I'll have the absolute honor and being able to meet you
Your love for each other is remarkable. It truly makes me wanna be a better person. And your channel is still to this day the only one that can bring a tear to my eye. Can't wait to see many more years of saying... Yes.
The tears are flowing as much as the flow of life has brought me so much further since I unlocked the power of yes theory. From all the international strangers I was able to connect with with on the many international and national meetups Ive done now to having the Living room concerts dance parties as a light in a bad time of the pandemic, to just the 5 years of memories living as an active community member. To the boys, to this community and to all the friends Ive made. Thank you you! Truly! I guess I could start writing my book now with all the experiences you guys and this community has allowed to me experience.. I'm so grateful!!!
So heart felt. I immediately shared and texted all my old grade school friends, who I am so blessed to still have in my life. Friendship is SUCH a blessing. Love you guys and all that you do. I travel plenty and seek discomfort. Aloha. I immediately started plans for a reunion in Sacramento. Go Kings!
67 year old grandma living vacariously through Yes Theory. If I was a millennial would totally seek discomfort with these guys. BRAVO Thomas, Matt, Ammar, Derin
I know I didn't help with the monthly rent on that place but it felt like I was entering my old apartment as well, having followed your story since then. I love you guys, I had a smile throughout the entire video and my heart is warm. Can't wait for the book to arrive in my mailbox! And as that Fam member said on the street "What you guys do is awesome, please don't stop, ever, thank you guys". I remember the exact moment and the exact video where I thought "These guys are just having fun and want to share it with us". Thank you for the friendships you guys allowed me to create. I truly appreciate you for creating the space for it to happen daily in our community and I wish you all the best in your next chapter. Will be watching closely
Your support over the last 8 years has taken us further than any of us ever thought we could get.
The next videos are going to be some of the best this channel has ever seen and we're excited to take you alongside us in these incredible adventures.
With Love from a group of weirdos that somehow made something really cool happen,
Yes Theory
What we're all creating together, with this worldwide community, gives me faith in humanity

I am an 85 year old woman leaving in Hawaii who has watched so much of “yes” and I am literally in tears watching this!!!! Love ALL of you kids!❤
😂
@@stank1071 ?
Beautiful. I love you too...
Love this so much 💛
ok
This whole friend group is basically one big bromance and I’m here for it.
The fact lads have been doing YT for 8 years is insane dedication, respect
Yeah not like this is their full time jobs and are making alotta money 🤦♂️
And get to do alot of fun and interesting things like whaat@@wyattlevy
still it takes a lot of work, admire what they have built. its incredible@@wyattlevy
Bro this is creepy I'm seeing you in all video comment sections that I watch XD
Are you in my walls?
This is just their job and how they make money lmao
Seeing Derin again healed something in me, can’t believe I have been watching you since I was 15, now I am 23 😮
I feel the same way but just turned 24. I remember going back and watching videos with him in it.
He was such a great member of the team and I missed a lot in the channel, even in this video. But I'm glad for what he did for us !
Same will be for Matt of course. I think I can speak on behalf of everybody when I say that we wish all of team the very best for their futur projects
Im 23 too 😂 and I watched since Derin’s era
Same omg 24 in November feel like ive grown into a man whilst watching them
Same
This video was such good vibes throughout
Thumbs up
It is good🎥💯 for freedom with enjoying
👍
👍
Nice
"I truly believe that on each of our deathbeds, what we'll look back at is not the amount of things we accomplished, places we traveled to, or wealth we accumulated, but the depth in which we connected with those we love." Yes indeed.
I legit cried when I saw you guys made it « home ». I show your stuff to my students to teach storytelling and always end up showing them Project 30 videos to show how a brand evolves. I love seeing their faces recognize the streets of Montreal. I’m so proud Yes Theory was born here!
Seeing Matt in videos makes me SO SO SO happy. I love you guys from the bottom of my heart, thanks for being such a light in so many people's lives! Much love from Brazil!
eles são incríveis, e ainda curtiram teu comentario hehehe// they are amazing, and they even liked ur comment
damn i wished to meet them
I am 47 years old and I'm a week into my journey of saving myself. I listened to several of Matt's conversations and realized how much I had in common with that young man. A bit embarrassed that I'm 47 and I'm just understanding I have serious mental issues. I thank you gentlemen for being consistent with yourselves and with us.
Don’t be embarassed, my dad was diagnosed with bipolar and found out he had brain damage from a previous accident from when he was a child , and he is 57 years old. You are never to old to begin your self healing journey and I’m so proud of you for being able to even admit too yourself that you need help ❤ props g
No need to be embarrased at all, I started suffering from mental health issues at 27 after never having previously suffered, I'm 29 now and I'm still learning each day, it's an ongoing thing but you should be proud of yourself no matter what. At this early stage of it just take it day by day and be easy on yourself, you got this 👊
Hai. There's no need to feel embarrassed. I am 26 years old (soon to be 27) and i ve been suffering from mental health issues for the last couple of years. but i have learned a lot in this process. it just takes time and it is a self learning , continuously improving process. process it one day at a time sir. remember, you are not alone and also remember that each and every person in this world has a story and a long battle they are facing in their daily lives.
Cheer up sir. You got this!!!
Dont be, you are amazing. The fact that you are able to accept the issues your dealing with is such an achievement. No matter how old or young you are. Accepting and facing the fears and problems we all have is a blessing. Now you can learn how to ‘heal’ yourself and be more self aware then ever before. It can be a rollercoaster sometimes, but don’t be hard on yourself. Give yourself time and love, you deserve it!
Don't be embarrassed. They say that life is a journey of learning about the world around you as well as a journey of learning about yourself. Everyone's journey will be different, but it doesn't change the destination. As long as you feel you are on your right path of healing, then you will eventually find your destination as long as you take small steps to get there. Don't feel bad if you stumble a bit or have to rest, and remember that many others are also on this road to give you a hand if you need it. You aren't alone.
I’ve been watching you guys ever since I was in high school and now I’m 24… it feels insane to be here with you guys. You all created a community like no other and I just want to thank you for including us as if we were family ❤
Me 2 feel you!!
Same man. This goodbye also feels like a final goodbye from me. A goodbye to the part of Yes Theory that I fantasized over with the three of them being together. Now it's time to move on. Own adventures to start. New stories to tell. I sadly don't have the Yes Fam community, but there love and fraternity is unequaled.
ok
I love how affectionate you guys are with each other. Holding hands, hugs, your so comfortable like family it makes me smile.
The way you all talk to each other as men and appreciate each other is needed in more male friendships ❤ what a great example
My grandmother bought a book that came out on the day I was born, which she left a note inside of it just for me. I have a daughter on the way and she is expected to be here December 3rd. I just wanted to let you know that I will be buying your book so my daughter knows about the group I watched for so many years and has encouraged me to laugh at myself. Thank you Yes Theory, love you guys!
I kind of love this🖤
ohhh congrats! my eighteenth birthday is on december 3rd:)
That’s a comment grown man tear up to! So seldom and so beautiful! Wishing you and your daughter all the very best ❤️
That’s sweet
I only just found this channel a couple months ago, but I can’t explain the impact you guys have had in my life. Thank you.
All the fans recognizing you is so sweet - hometown heroes and inspiration to so many people
I’ve just watched this video 4 months later, and seeing this brought me to tears, it was so beautiful. You guys did a reunion with the mtl yes fam while you where here and I missed it coz I was feeling low, but I regret not going and showing you guys how much these videos mean to me. Love what you’re doing
I am a 54 year old Mexican lady, two days ago I discovered a video of yours, since then I have seen I think 10 more. I am in love with your achievements and the meaning of Yes Theory. This video is very moving, I hope you always continue with your achievements, you are an example of what is possible..
You guys have made a huge difference in my life in a very positive way. I got my new POV towards this world. And I'm just happy to be a part of your community. 💙
This video shows exactly why I don't think of Yes Theory as just another UA-cam channel I watch to pass time or learn something. Looking at these old photos of you guys, and your journey, I'm reminded of something that I know would be good for me but I hadn't done.
Which is being ok with being vulnerable around people, that's the only way to find and form the kinds of connections that will enrich your life enough to be something which brings you joy even on your death bed.
It's really not worth hiding your feelings to one day find yourself with people who never got to know YOU but only the image you let them know, and you lose sight of what your feelings even are when live long enough to fit an image.
Well this was written half for me, and half for someone who might resonate with this. Anyways thank you guys for being you, Yes theory ♥️
Matt is such a wonderfully empathetic person! I love the moment they shared in Thomas' old room.
Totally agreeee
😁🙏 @@420_vacations_worldwide
I rarely leave comments in UA-cam videos or social media in particular. But I've been a fan/subscriber since the project 30 days the painting at the restaurant stuff, until you moved to LA and that new place you had, with TD joining and felt real sad when Derin moved away, and when the old LA apartment got demolished. I was in 1st years of college and now been living alone working, for few years and I admit I have not been watching your videos that much for adulting reasons. But this feel so surreal, I feel like I am saying hello and goodbye to a family member. All the nostalgic feeling situations back when I was watching your videos came back into me. I tried commenting before to have Derin comeback for few days and I'm just glad to see him again. And the newsletters of Matt is what gives me life, hope and new perspective in life everytime. Thank you so much for being part of my life and bringing this kind of warmth into my heart. Cheers to the new journey, and celebrate the history. Love y'all yes theory guys
Let’s just notice how Matt constantly is supportive and caressing his friends. He is such an amazing man and I can’t wait for his future ❤
I’m a 65 year old woman… feeling creepy I’m watching yr videos. But…. I have a son who had a gang of boys that I so enjoyed watching their crazy antics. I made sure my home was the place that they hung out. Each of u have a place in my heart and yr work has encouraged me to be a better person. Feeling grateful!!!
It isn't creepy. They actually have met so many people decades older than them that they find so relatable because they have similar passions and personalities. I think it's beautiful you're getting something out of their videos that brings you happiness. They would also be happy to hear that, I promise. They're all such sweet souls.
Hi Yes Theory! Mental health professional here. The work you guys have done is truly amazing. In a world where social anxiety is high, channels like yours that do things like this are so amazing! With social anxiety, one of the top treatment approaches in terms of successful outcomes is exposure therapy! Often, when we feel anxious in social situations, we want to avoid them. Unfortunately, this avoidance feels good in the short term but negatively reinforces feelings of anxiety in the long run -- you're basically telling your brain you can't handle the interaction. With general anxiety, much of the time we're helping people see that, "hey, those thoughts you're having might not occur or occur with the severity that you think." With social anxiety, we're showing people, "hey, what you think might happen *COULD* actually happen"' (because human behavior isn't always predictable), but if it did, could you handle it? What assumptions do you make about the interaction that impact your perception of the interaction?
In mental health, this ability to endure these uncomfortable situations is called distress tolerance. The higher your distress tolerance, the less likely you are to let these social situations impact you and make you anxious.
All of these exposure-type things you're doing is showing people that, hey, this discomfort can be *really* uncomfy, but it allows for so much growth!
I love this comment. Thanks for this!!
I am not crying, you are crying 😢 such a beautiful video.
Who would have thought a young man in a Montreal bedroom with big dreams and 3 other dreamer friends would create a movement that has inspired,motivated and transformed so many life’s.
Thanks you for existing, thank for for saying YES and for never failing to seek discomfort.
Ps. As a Canadian-Colombian who has also been enchanted with the city of Montreal, so proud of all started there 🍁
As a Montréaler, I love how the city has embraced you guys. We love you fam.
Me too I feel so proud :-)
For me, this was what it was all about from the beginning on: Your friendship. Your connection. "Yes Theory" is just the vehicle you rode on, but it was you guys who were changing lives, including mine. Thank you so damn much.
this made me cry… ditto
Re-bienvenue à la maison, boys! It was really special to spend some time with Matt for his last Yes Theory Fam meet up in Montreal. A moment that I'll never forget. Thank you for everything. 🙏💙
As a Montrealer who has been watching for the past 8 years, all I can say is I’m so proud of you boys and how far each of you have come❤️ watching you guys be back where it all began made me smile so much but also brought tears to my eyes. Keep being a light to the world🙏🏼
Time flies! I was a 2nd year in university when this channel was created. Now I’m 27 and married. I’ve been watching your channel since then and this video was everything! Thank you for all these great videos guys🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
I really hope that Matt finds what he truly wants to do with his life.

Yes Theory has provided a different type of evolution in my life that I can’t fully explain. I brag about this channel to those around me as ppl wonder where my mindset of seeking discomfort comes from. Despite the channel being up for 8 years, I’ve only been apart of 6.5 years. I’ve seen how this channel has changed my mindset in life. Seeing Thomas and Matt in the cafe made my heart light up because it’s exactly how I pictured it after reading the chapter previews of Matt’s book. It was lovely to see Derin. I am only 10 minutes into the episode and I have plenty to express. Ugh I love this channel and group of guys. Thank you for creating such a wonderful community. I hope it remains pure, fresh, and happy for many more years. I hope others will eventually feel the same way.
Edit: my heart feels so full after this episode. Tears actually dwelled up.
I've almost never dropped a comment on a UA-cam video before, but I simply can't leave this one. I first knew you guys in 2020, and yes, I might not be a day one follower. But I'm ever so grateful for how you carved a wonderful path in my life by teaching me to say yes to life!
Back in 2020 it was really some rough times for me. Being a newly arrived international student in France in the midst of pandemic was the most challenging thing I've ever faced. Yet, those times also held some of the most joyful memorable epoch of my life : the best around Europe travelling experience cause it's my first time staying in strangers' house, hitchhiking, and having a real taste of humanity by saying YES.
Ever since, I managed to adopt a more optimistic POV in the middle of a somewhat dark world I live in. So thank you guys for giving me new adventures and fresh air in life, keep on keeping on !!
-Yoel
Just a few minutes in, and I'm legit in tears, dude. You all meant the world to me for the longest time. It's wild to see how you've all evolved. Yes Theory has been like a whole new level of transformation in my life that's kinda hard to put into words. Thanks to you, I've got this crazy sense of strength and confidence, and I can totally step out of my comfort zone. Feeling so grateful and amped to be part of the YesFam
This is incredible. Instead of mourning the loss of a co- creator & fearing the changing friendship dynamic. You are celebrating all of your adventures, your growth as a unit and every other life experience you were able to traverse as a team. Now you are moving forward to the next chapter of all of your lives with gratitude! Absolutely Beautiful 😊
I woke up this morning after being terminated from my job of six years because someone did not like my hair color. I am halfway finished obtaining my MBA. I am embarking on my a new chapter in my life. This video is what I needed. You guys have been my inspiration for over two years. I have y'alls logo tattooed on my hand as a reminder to see discomfort. Thank you guys so much! 😁
Hope you fond a better job soon !
I had the chance to meet Thomas in Montreal many years ago. We spoke about some projects we were working on and i left that small 10 minutes conversation with a new outlook on how i was engaging with the people around me. Yes Theory has been life changing for me. Thank you, both the crew and yes fam, for the impact you've had on both me and the people of my generation. I can't wait to meet more of you in the coming years!
If you guys only knew back then how many people you’d be inspiring today. Thank you for sharing your roots with us, for continuing to grow and inspiring us through all of your adventures. To Thomas, Ammar, Matt, Derin, and all of the Yes Theory fam, it’s been a wonderful ride and we can’t wait to see what lies ahead. ❤
I cried seeing Derin, it brings back so many memories ! I’ve been a day one follower and this video is an absolut gem ! Looking forward to this next chapter 😊
The OG YES THEORY team will never be beaten! I love seeing videos with the 4 of you guys, brings back memories of this channel that'll never be the same.
Wow. This video made me so emotional. I started following you guys when I was 14 years old. Now I'm 18 and it feels like I grew up with you. I love watching your journey and your adventures. I think it's safe to say that I've seen all of your videos. It's so nice to see the original 4 back together! I'm an alpine skier and the moment when I realized I want to be the best was at the age of 14. That means I've been watching you throughout my journey and I think you made me the person I'm today. I have the words "seek discomfort" written in my heart and it motivates me to do uncomfortable things necessary to become the best in the world. I've got your "mantra necklace" around my neck every time I'm going 60 miles per hour down the mountain. It gives me the confidence I need. Your videos always cheer me up when I need it and they give me the feeling that I can conquer the world. Thanks to you guys my life makes sense. I'm excited for what comes next! THANK YOU!! Sending love from Czech Republic❤️🇨🇿
Change is forever coming. Just glad y’all can stay friends through all this.
I will always follow the journey of this community✊
Been watching Yes Theory from day 1 and it is hard to fathom how far you guys have come, how many adventures you have documented, how much adversity has been faced, and most importantly how much of an impact you have had, not only on myself, but to millions of people across the world. I am so beyond proud, and cannot put into words how much gratitude I have for you and this channel. It has opened my mind and expanded my perspective on life and I have found myself more willing to seek discomfort every single day. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
It is December of 2024 and I JUST discovered your channel and am HOOKED! I am a Canadian living in Colorado and wanted to let you know what your videos are still inspiring viewers years after posting. I am inspired by your raw honesty, joie de vivre, brilliant storytelling and special ability to connect to people (both young and old) from different cultures all over the world! Thank you for offering such a gift to the world! I own a video production company and wanted to express how your storytelling has inspired me and brought back new passion for what I do. Thank you from the bottom of my heart! ❤️
I think a lot I love about this channel is that it sparks the inner me. I love the whole methodology about Yes Theory. A group of guys from all different walks of life who decided to live spontaneously, take risks, seek discomfort, and turn a blind eye to certain social norms. I love that!
One of my favorite quotes is “And then there is the most dangerous risk of them all. The risk of not doing what you want, on the bet that you can buy yourself the freedom to do it later”. So why work a 9-5 in your home town when the world has so much to offer. This is what I love about Yes Theory. Talking to strangers to live in their apartment. Why? Because it’s different.
Fear kills more dreams than failure ever will.
I know it's not the same, but just that YesTheroy was born in Canada makes me so proud! I am so excited to watch this final journey for Matt, although I wish he was never leaving, I'm so proud of him for being strong enough to do what's so hard to walk away!! Love this family you've created amongst yourselves, and the Yes Fam worldwide ❤
As I'm sitting here at work balling my eyes out as a 44 year old Man watching your growth seeing where it all started. I feel proud of you as if you were my own family. The team have helped me grow. I used to be a big believer in what if? in my view very similar to yes theory. What if i didn't do this or that? Let me tell you tho, Every video i watch - (And as soon as each video comes out) helps that spark in me grow again. I believe in your yes theory movement but the hardest thing is to step into seeking discomfort for the first time again. I have plans to seek discomfort again but sadly haven't crossed that imaginary line yet. I would love you all to come and see New Zealand one day and help the movement grow here. Lots of Love from a Man who has learn't that its OK to cry and show emotion. Love Ya all!!
I still feel he is still struggling something more deeper. I hope he is ok and wish him all the success.And if he is going through something, hope he gets the help he needs.
Don't you all feel it? Like this life isn't offering us everything it's meant to be. Something is off, something is wrong. Even those who are "successful", still, somethings missing. And this feeling, this realization, often separates you from those you love. Because you sense and know, there is something deeper and more pressing here, that we should be talking about and dealing with. And you want nothing more than to express it to those around you, and do something about it, with them. but they often don't understand. Or sometimes they might get little pieces of it, but they stop there and don't want to delve further. Seems like people are very slowly, catching on. some of us are ahead of the curve. It is painful and isolating.
Though some claim it is possible to find peace amongst the storm.
@@SuperiorRobyn That's called Depression and you aren't 'ahead of the curve', you're suffering. I've been there, depression doesn't make us special. Seek help, talk to your friends and your family. Take a breather, do what you enjoy!
@@SuperiorRobynThe storm is peaceful
@@smithynoir9980 nah this world is the bad place you don't get it. Everything is backwards here. Depression is normal reaction to living in this world.
I came across a Yes Theory video for the first time a few years ago (I think the “yes” tattoo episode), and became a subscriber after watching it. These guys are complete strangers to me, yet they feel like close personal friends. It is absolutely amazing to see how far they’ve come since the creation of Yes Theory. I was filled with emotions watching this video, from tears to laughter. There is something cinematic about this 21 minute video. The contrast in quality from the older videos to what they are now is incredible. The older clips of the guys with their lack of facial hair made this feel so nostalgic. It is awesome that you three got the chance to go back to where it all began for this full-circle moment. The impact Yes Theory has created is so spectacular, and I’m willing to bet that millions of people have been encouraged to seek discomfort in their own ways. Despite the darkness and despair in this world, it’s assuring knowing that there truly are wonderful people on this planet. There are now over 8 billion humans inhabiting this earth. That’s a lot of people. Conversations are waiting to happen even with people you may not know. Thank you to Yes Theory for existing and creating beautiful content. I wish everyone reading this the best with whatever they may be dealing with in life. Humans innately do not like to be uncomfortable, but as this channel has proven, discomfort can lead to growth, adventures, friendships, and memories. Life is too short to be comfortable all the time. Take the risk, get out of your comfort zone, and see what this world has to offer. I can’t wait to read Matt’s book when it releases next month. Cheers to Matt for grinding the book out after the last two years, cheers to Yes Theory for starting this community, and cheers to everyone who is still reading this long comment ❤
You are the reason we started our channel. Our channel has brought us so much & we owe it all to you guys. Thank you.
Was anyone else feeling tears about to fall when watching this or was it just me? Truly a really nice tribute to what you guys have created and I am thankful to live in the time to be able to witness the journey of Yes Theory over the years.
Same here! Theses guys saved me back then 🥲🥲
The ending, when they were together in the same bed they exchanged their first brojobs in 8 years earlier had me an emotional mess! 😭❤️
Yes Theory changed my life. You are what motivated me to leave my couch and go see the world. I'm now on country #25 and I've met people from over 100 countries.
"A stranger is just a friend you've never met" ❤
From the bottom of my heart, thank you.
What a great testimony!!
Only 6 minutes in and I’m crying man what the hell. You guys were so important to me for a long time. I’m glad to have seen you all grow
You guys have absolutely changed my life… I’ve never been so inspired. As a cinematographer and photographer you’ve really inspired and challenged my thoughts on the fact that you can do something that makes zero sense to others but makes totally ridiculous transformations in the way we view the world around us. I sincerely hope I can travel with you guys one day.
Man you guys have done so much good.
I found this channel in 2019 after I had a late term pregnancy loss. I didn’t want to get out of bed. With my depressed mood I looked forward to your videos as I still do to this day.
You made me smile again and helped me through the hardest time in my life. I will be a forever fan.
I hope that as an LA resident I see you guys walking down the street one day.
Thank you all for being such amazing human beings.
guuuuuys!! thank you all so much for letting me be a small part of such a special video!! Was tearing up several times watching this
NGL I teared up a little because I started watching YES Theory during the most difficult times of my life where everything felt meaningless, and this Channel gave me inspiration to make it meaningful. I love you guys, still waiting for you to knock on my door on one of your adventures.
You are a beautiful group of souls, who inspire greatness in the world. 'Losing' Matt is sad, but he'll always be a part of the family. He'll be free to continue to inspire the world in his own way. Keep shining brightly guys ❤
It’s scary that they eventually break apart but it’s part of our life, people change and grow apart. So might as well appreciate it while it lasts. Thank you guys for everything you did. You really changed my life for the better
I'm not crying you're crying!😢❤ It is beautiful to see this, very wholesome. Especially Thomas, please show that side of you more often.
You guys changed my life. I’ve learned to embrace Discomfort and say Yes even more. Thank you 🙏 🇿🇦 love from South Africa
I'm moving to Montreal next year and can only hope to land some friends as wholesome and inspiring as you all. Congrats on everything!
i have actual tears in my eyes… you guys have made such a big positive impact on my life! this was just lovely to watch
been a Yes Fam member since 2018 - yall really changed my life n my mindset. I'm not the same person I was before I discovered your videos and I just want to thank you all for the gift you've given us. we love you guys
A nice detail in this video is that - despite your YT celebrity status - it’s not given that strangers let you sleep in their apartment. So the way you gave back to them with the gifts for their apartment really made a difference here. It wasn’t expected, the dudes were just happy to let you in. But they still got a reward for being nice, for saying ‚yes‘.
It was truly special to watch the three of you share this moment. I've been around for years and you continue to deeply inspire me in different ways. What a huge thing. I can only imagine what that must have felt like for you, Thomas, being back in the space of that first spark.
Couldn't stop smiling throughout this video. So glad you guys came. So grateful to have been able to see Derin and Matt. Was already gonna get the book but NOW, Matt needs to do the flip
What better time to upload a video than this when the world is in pain. Love Yes Fam♥️
Bloody brilliant! Yes Theory! Thanks for all your amazing content over years and years. A new start and I can't wait!
"our friendship has to end the same way it started" that is so powerful
Why does their friendship have to end though?
I am so full of smiles and soaked with tears watching this video. You guys didn't just explore different parts of the world but have taken us with you in the journey as if we were there with you. This video gives a more clear meaning to why we love to watch you guys!
Seeing Matt and Derin in one video makes me so happy I miss them both so much❤
You have not only inspired me but an entire generation to go out in the world and connect with people. I just want to say thank you for everything you guys have done for the world ❤❤❤
Amazing. Also from Montreal currently traveling the world and saying yes to as many things as I can!
i wasted all my life on youtube, i been in every side of youtube and yours is the most positive one i came across and keep coming back to!! You guys are amazing! i never leave comments but heres yalls you guys deserve it
Only 4 minutes in and this is already going to be a very emotional ride...
Thank you guys!!
Feel like we've all been there along for the ride with you guys. Bittersweet is a perfect word for these feelings, but with a little bitterness, is a ton of sweetness. LOVE THE YES FAM.. From Savannah, GA
This was the breath of fresh air that I needed today. Thank you so much for the years of inspiration and happiness that you have provided everyone in this community.
One thing I love about you guys is how you actually take in moments when you are in them and reminisce when needed.
I landed in montreal when first moving to canada from germany. Seeing that airport had me emotional. Grand father passed the year after me and my family moved when i was 8. Im now turning 24 in january and on the verge of going back to germany. I dont want to go back but after trial and error, homelessness and many other struggles im still no closer to living my dream life in canada with friends and family. Even tho this country is pretty well all i know and i spent nearly my whole life here i feel i have no options left and the thought of leaving my family and friends is the most discomfort ive ever experienced. Yet i still try to stay positive and share great vibes with everyone. Its hard knowing not only did my journey start in that same airport as your guyses journey but hearing of your adversity gives me hope that i can make it through and come out successful on the other end. Thank you yes theory for showing me discomfort can be crippling but if used right it will be the greatest asset and tool to propel yourself ahead. In the face of struggle never give up always adapt and over come. Friends make the journey easier and never be afraid to step out of your bubble. It is when we are uncomfortable that we truelly find ourselves and you learn you can over come any obstacle. Thanks again for giving me hope and motivation.
I watched you since grade school while searching for string theory, now im graduate of astronomy and currently working as a developer. Time really do flies ❤❤❤
You shaped all of our lives in the past 8 years, maybe more than you and all of us can imagine. Thanks for being there so far and can't wait to see where it's going.
you guys are the most genuine guys ever :")) being vulnerable in front of the camera isn't something everyone could do but you guys are not afraid to do so :")) this video is so extremely nice, thanks for reminding me the importance of never forgetting good memories and where we came from :")
I can’t even put into words how much you changed my life. Watching this has made me emotional. Thank you guys for changing my outlook on the world.
Growing up in my small island sandbar where I never saw anything besides the beach, the sound, and this one highway that was the path elsewhere, we never really left. I’d been to probably three states and visited China once to meet family. During COVID, locked in our homes during my first year of college, I was living vicariously through old yes theory videos with a vision and urge to travel. After COVID, these last two years, I went to Europe for the first time, solo traveled across Italy for 2.5 weeks without speaking the language, went back with friends and am now studying abroad in Spain and traveling to other European countries weekly.
Thank you, Yes Theory. For inspiring so many like me, to dream, to travel, and to seek discomfort. I would’ve never had such inspiration or courage to live the way I do now. Excited for the future of Yes Theory! ❤
I just preordered a hard signed copy! I'm so excited. You guys LITERALLY saved me. I thank you all so much for all you've done not just for me, but everyone around the world you've impacted. Thank you so much for all the hard work you all put into these amazing videos and journeys you've taken us on. I'm currently trying to get over my own discomfort (random fear of flying after I experienced my first panic attack) and you all have been helping me try to get over this. Thank you all again for everything you do. Maybe one day I'll have the absolute honor and being able to meet you
Your love for each other is remarkable. It truly makes me wanna be a better person. And your channel is still to this day the only one that can bring a tear to my eye. Can't wait to see many more years of saying... Yes.
The tears are flowing as much as the flow of life has brought me so much further since I unlocked the power of yes theory. From all the international strangers I was able to connect with with on the many international and national meetups Ive done now to having the Living room concerts dance parties as a light in a bad time of the pandemic, to just the 5 years of memories living as an active community member. To the boys, to this community and to all the friends Ive made. Thank you you! Truly! I guess I could start writing my book now with all the experiences you guys and this community has allowed to me experience.. I'm so grateful!!!
So heart felt. I immediately shared and texted all my old grade school friends, who I am so blessed to still have in my life. Friendship is SUCH a blessing. Love you guys and all that you do. I travel plenty and seek discomfort. Aloha. I immediately started plans for a reunion in Sacramento. Go Kings!
This group and channel is SO inspirational!! We need MANY more people like you all in this world and it would be a better place!! I love you all!
The vibes u cant find in any other channel, like for real. Love u boys! Truly inspirational
67 year old grandma living vacariously through Yes Theory. If I was a millennial would totally seek discomfort with these guys. BRAVO Thomas, Matt, Ammar, Derin
This is the very first video I’ve ever seen on this channel. Kinda funny it’s the end of something I’ve never seen in the first place.
This is crazy, finished the book 5 minutes ago. Insane to watch this. So inspiring.
I know I didn't help with the monthly rent on that place but it felt like I was entering my old apartment as well, having followed your story since then. I love you guys, I had a smile throughout the entire video and my heart is warm. Can't wait for the book to arrive in my mailbox! And as that Fam member said on the street "What you guys do is awesome, please don't stop, ever, thank you guys". I remember the exact moment and the exact video where I thought "These guys are just having fun and want to share it with us". Thank you for the friendships you guys allowed me to create. I truly appreciate you for creating the space for it to happen daily in our community and I wish you all the best in your next chapter. Will be watching closely
