I started walking 10k steps a day because I hate my life. I keep complaining but I didn’t do a single thing to change it. i keep repeating the cycle and go on about the routine that I hate. Then I was like, if I don’t change there’s no way everything will be different from now on so I started to go for an hour+ for walking after work. It’s been two weeks I still dislike my life and the city I’m living but i’m not as miserable as I was before. It sure does improve my mental health. Planning on doing it for 90 days straight. I’m tryna see what will happen physically and mentally.
For those complaining walking 10,000 steps is too much, skip to min 25 and start small, even if you go on a walk for 5 mins outside your place, take a note and celebrate your win for the day, next day same, until your energy is higher than your fuckn excuses. Note for myself, thanks! 🙏🏼 25:00
Walking is such a simple yet transformative practice. Those 10km walks can be a sanctuary for deep thought and self-reflection. The rhythm of walking often sparks creativity and can significantly improve mood, as you've experienced. It’s wonderful to hear how this habit has positively impacted your life. Regular walks not only enhance physical health but also offer mental clarity and emotional balance. Your dedication to this practice is inspiring and a great reminder to stay committed to routines that enrich our lives. Stay Uncommon!
If you can run for hours it applies what is important is to walk for. Long times like an hour or something which make you comfortable of physical and mental hard works and you can focus even while standing which is also great
If you haven’t read his book, read it first before watching his videos. Not once has he contradicted himself - his mind, way of thinking. He is consistent with his audience because he is the product. Im sure he’s fully aware that his videos could get millions of views, but doesn’t give a crap, that’s not why he’s doing this. He wouldn’t say something if he didn’t truly believe in it. He’s encouraged people to prove him wrong, you won’t. Everything connects, doesn’t matter what he talks about. A video about a walking or any other topic he’s talked about is so consistent. This is intelligence - on another level. You def need to be focused with his videos and write things down or take screenshots and so you can comeback to it. Makes it easy with the text. DEFINITELY read ‘The Art of Focus’ if you haven’t already. You’ll get so much more from his videos!
I’m 63, ive been walking an average of 15000 to 20000 steps a day for over 10 years. In Arizona. I get up 3:30 am every day, I have a morning nutrition and preparation routine before I walk to the gym. Weights for an hour then I walk to work and stand and move at work for 5 to 6 hours a day 6 days a week. Then I walk home when it’s the hottest part of the day. I feel better and have more energy now then I had when I was younger.
I’m still very thankful for the fact that I can walk every day. It’s one of my absolute favourite things to do. Nothing comes close when it comes to therapy.
Your gratitude for the ability to walk daily is touching and a reminder of the simple pleasures we often take for granted. Walking offers not just physical benefits but also mental and emotional relief. It’s a form of therapy that allows you to connect with yourself and your surroundings. This appreciation for the small, everyday activities underscores the importance of mindfulness and finding joy in simple routines. Your perspective is refreshing and encouraging. Keep enjoying those daily walks!
When you mentioned this I joined this church 6 months ago. Bruh. My walks last like 90 mins now. Best obsession ever. (Especially those days where you just raw dawg it without headphones lol) Thanks for continually being one of my best sources of value. Not many creators out there that cause me to change my life. 🖤
It’s amazing to see how a simple suggestion can lead to such a positive life change. Walking for 90 minutes a day, especially without distractions like headphones, allows you to be fully present and connected with your thoughts and surroundings. This practice can indeed become a healthy obsession, providing both physical benefits and mental clarity. It’s wonderful that you’ve found such value in this habit and that it continues to enrich your life. Thank you for sharing your experience and for your kind words about the content that inspired you.
The main reason why I love hiking trails. Walking through nature helps me relax my mind, explore new places, and as a bonus I get to stay healthy. Sometimes you just need to stop and smell the roses.
I lost 20 pounds walking and listening to your videos. Whats funny is…. I didn’t know you were into fitness or walking. The algorithm sent you my way, haven’t looked back. Recently bought a course and am less fat and less lazy. Thanks Dan!
The serendipity of finding content that aligns with your goals is always exciting. Walking while listening to motivational videos can be a powerful combination, leading to physical transformation and mental stimulation. Your journey of losing weight and becoming less lazy reflects the positive impact of integrating healthy habits and inspirational content into daily life. It's a testament to how the right guidance can make a significant difference. Keep up the fantastic work, and continue to enjoy the benefits of your walks!
The timing of this is too perfect! I just started walking two days ago and have been doing 5 miles per day so far. it's been kinda painful (I'm 287 lbs) but its been making me feel good mentally and I can't explain it. I guess it's the combination of the fresh air, the sun, and knowing i'm doing something good for my body!
13:40 running definitely burns more calories in the same distance because your expending more energy. But the energy expenditure is what makes it not worth it, you can simply walk an extra 20% and get the same calorie loss without breaking a sweat.
@samquirkiverse he said it's about equal. I was just clarifying that running is definetly about 20% more calories but you also get tired about 100% faster lol
I trusy Dan so much, i saw the thumbnail and automatically added a walk to my routine. Im literally watching this video for the first time on my first walk.
I live in a beautiful park area and have been walking early morning Lots of hills and inclines. I make it multi purpose by listening to a book or good music, weights on my ankles and now feeding the animals with breadcrumbs along the way. So satisfying❤
I started earlier this year with 5000 steps after hearing about the health benefits. I’m averaging 7500 and now have a much better comprehension of the expansion of ideas I’ve had since starting. Thanks for this and all the other amazing info you share! I used to hate writing and now I’m doing it daily
the way Dan formulates his thoughts with such clarity and articulation is astounding. It’s like I can sit through an entire video, writing notes because i’m actually engaged with the content. Thanking the UA-cam algorithm x1000 right now, because this channel is life changing. Not to mention, it’s all at no cost. The only thing standing in the way of one’s success is themselves, and an inability to accept the responsibility that comes with being exceptional. Like, it’s really hard work at first. I feel like it’s more forming a new mental program than anything else. On average a new habit formation takes 30 days..
YAY! One thing that I am finally good at haha I LOOOOOVVVEEEE walking! I can walk for HOURS! It's so therapeutic for me. I think, visualize, zone out a bit, and come up with some amazing ideas in the process.
"If your mental health is in shambles, isn't it at least worth a shot?" - That one really brought it in for me, Thanks for another great video Dan, Your videos always find a way to resonate with where my life is at the current moment.
That’s a powerful realization. When mental health is struggling, exploring new habits like walking can be a lifeline. Physical activity, especially something as accessible as walking, can have a profound impact on our mental well-being. It’s heartening to hear that Dan’s videos resonate with you and provide the right encouragement at the right time. Sometimes, the simplest actions can make the biggest difference, and your openness to trying new approaches is commendable. Keep taking those steps towards better health.
I use my walks to connect with my family, which lives on a different continent. This helps me talk to my fav people with no interruptions and destructions regularly.
I got into walking 20k steps a day last year. I would get 8k steps in at 5 am, then 8k at 5 pm and the additional steps during the normal course of the day. One month I had a goal to walk 300 miles. I walked the toe nails right off my feet! Besides losing 25 pounds in 6 weeks, the best unexpected result was it got my calves to grow. They went from skinny to slightly normal, to proportionate for my body type. Huge win for a guy who always hated wearting shorts.
Your commitment to walking is truly impressive! Incorporating such a rigorous routine, especially with your early morning and evening walks, shows incredible discipline and dedication. The physical transformations, like weight loss and improved muscle tone, are fantastic outcomes, but the mental and emotional benefits are equally significant. It's fascinating how something as simple as walking can lead to profound changes in our lives. Your story is a testament to the power of consistency and perseverance. Keep up the great work!
@@CibitiPro Thanks. I made it to my desired weight, so now I'm just doing my 8k steps at 5 am. I'll go several days in a row and listen to my body. If I get achy, I'll take a day off. One thing I did add is walking lunges for the last few hundred feet. I could barely do 10 the first time I tried. Now I shoot for 100 straight. Big gains in balance and coordination.
@ 22:53 Step 1. List out every single thing you don’t like in your life.. from that list write down the opposite (all the things you do want (or you think you want)) 1 year from now @23:11 Step2- set a daily goal and sub-goals @ 25:09 Step 3- create rules for walks @ 26:23 Step 4- Go on the walk (have a trigger) @ 25:57 your expectations & limiting beliefs are ruining your potential
I recently had umbilical hernia surgery and walking was all I could do for exercise over the last month. Previously I regularly went to yoga, the gym (probably what caused the hernia) and a wide variety of outdoor sports. I have to say, I totally agree with your observations with walking! I’m now hooked as well to walking outside everyday! I was walking (3x) morning, noonish and just before sunset. Breaking up my day this way has been a game changer for me. I do look forward to strategically lifting weights again, but walking while listening to valuable content or nothing at all has been far more valuable than sitting around scrolling aimlessly on social media. 💪🙌
great video, I started getting up 2 hours earlier than usual and spending 45m in the gym, and the remaining time walking. I live near the sea so it is something I look forward to as it’s very relaxing. I wish I started this walking routine years ago
I was listening to this during my walk!. I do however enjoy the walking meditation and focusing on my breath and letting go of thoughts. That's when the best ideas come to me. I enjoy all you content!
I got into walkiing becasue it's slow... my mind is racing with things battling for attention, the world seems to be constantly racing to get somewhere and there's a lot of stress... but when I walk the madness goes away. I take things at my pace, I get fresh air and sunlight. My brain gets a chance to think, not to be overwhelmed, but to properly have time to consider what I realling feel and what actually matters. And if I'm lucky when I walking into a park for a while or at least get away from the traffic and sirens, I find nature. Maybe it just some flowers and insects or maybe it's birds or squirrels... and I get to remember how amazing the natural world is, how awesome it is to experience life. Walking is a primal thing that we should remember to do everyday. Peace guys, be happy, walk more :) x
3. REASONS WHY JAMES (INVEST ANSWERS) IS A SCAMMER COFFEEZILLA IS TOO SCARED TO DISCUSS THIS SO I’LL DO IT 🤷🏻♂️ 1. HIS TIES TO ALEX MACHINSKY (see CRYPTO ARCHIVES UA-cam CHANNEL FOR HIS DELETED VIDEOS) 2. STILL PROMOTING TESLA (DOWN 30%) 3. STILL SHILLING SOLANA
Way to go, 53 yr old woman here, I went carnivore 7 weeks ago and I’ve been able to improve pretty much everything. I have been exercising more and some of that is walking and I do realize it’s amazing, now I found this video. Now I got to get everything else in life going, including the side business I have been wanting to begin.
@@KatJaguar1122 Awesome. It is mentally amazing! I used to ruminate like a badger, but that is totally gone, and has left me with calmness and clarity! It has really helped my on-camera performance for my YT Channel. Sorry Dan for the side track.
Wow I am 24 and watching you guys at 50s and 60s gives me motivation to grind harder. We have so much energy and so much time in our 20s yet we waste all the time on social media, scrolling useless memes. Respect for both of you though! Keep shining
I went Carnivore 2 weeks ago as well!☺️ I'm 51 and also love long walks. I call them my Forest Gump walks because I could probably keep going 😂 Be blessed💜
This channel has given me more personal insight than any other on UA-cam. I have long done an HIIT workout at home in the mornings before breakfast (up to 30% more effective fat burning) and gym in the evenings 3x weekly with intermittent fasting in between days. That helps greatly but walking is a habit that is a great addition to this as lifestyle.

Walking is one of the greatest cheat codes of life that many people don’t understand. Walking 3x day changed my life and people thought I was doing it for physical exercise when it was moreso mental exercise and creativity. Thanks for the reminder and allowing me to not feel misunderstood for once 💯✍🏾
Walking indeed acts as a "cheat code" for life, offering numerous benefits beyond physical exercise. The mental and creative stimulation it provides can be transformative, helping to clear the mind and spark new ideas. Your practice of walking three times a day and experiencing significant life changes highlights the power of this simple yet effective habit. It’s a reminder that often, the most impactful actions we can take for our well-being are straightforward and accessible. Keep walking and embracing the clarity and creativity it brings.
Walking has saved my life so many times. I love that you’re talking about this. It’s simply the most simple way to feel alive it’s unreal what it does.
I like to walk barefoot, on cement or ground, NOT asphalt (it’s not grounding and has toxins that you absorb through feet). Added benefit. You have to take your time a bit more and be mindful of your walking. And there’s a transition period if you’re not used to it, due to using different physiology when walking.
Dan, the way you have communicated on this topic; sharing your journey of “self honesty” {relaxed non-hype manner} and all the nuances of self-observation / life reflections {and “dynamics of your Self-Awareness” } , in this brief yet Profound monologue, makes this one of my all-time favorite “Self Awareness~ Self Development” presentations ever. Truly of Service to others who {like I} Resonate so “on point” with the message conveyed. With Much Appreciation in Return, posting link below in hopes it may be received in the spirit of of the Sincere Gratitude with which it is sent to you:
I can only agree!!! When I got my dog I didn't have any excuses anymore to not go on walks, and it has really changed my life. It's also a lot more fun to have a companion while doing it 🥰
I love long brisk walks listening to my podcast/ music / talking to the person i am walking with. It’s peaceful, resolving, & takes away most of the stress.
Even just 5-6K steps/day is sufficient according to science to get some benefit. My daily steps goal is at 11,000 steps but averaging about 11,800/day. So, yeah, highly recommended & super easy to do. Plus, you can dictate ideas 💡 into Google Keep which automatically transcribes into text.
Man your insights are so consistent it s really good to hear such a well articulated mind. Thank you for your contribution to our world. Keep going fam
Started walking nearly every day with my mom and sometimes my girlfriend. Working our way up to 4 miles and eventually 5 miles a day. I can’t describe it but I just feel so much better during the days after I take a long walk versus not. Also helps me sleep better
Great video! It just made me think how far we’ve gone - to need systems for the simplest of things like walking, sleeping, talking to people, etc. It seems that this brings so much more stress into our lives since everything has to be conscious now, you have to get out of your way in order to live a normal life. Compare this to our parents or grandparents who just lived their lives in the real world and this was just how it was by default for them. Imagine telling your grandfather that you need to gamify daily walks.
It's also a huge way of dominating one's local environment. Walking is the perfect speed to observe the environment while still being able effect that environment, skating and biking and will let you breeze by situations, but at the same time because of that speed you probably won't stop to observe or engage in the environment around you. Walking is a constant engagement with local environment.
Hallelujah 🙌🏻!!!!! The daily jesus devotional has been a huge part of my transformation, God is good 🙌🏻🙌🏻. I was owing a loan of $49,000 to the bank for my son's brain surgery, Now I'm no longer in debt after I invested $11,000 and got my payout of $290,500 every month…God bless Mrs Christy Fiore ❤️
I watched this while getting my steps goal in for the day. I’m in my 3rd week of hitting my daily steps goal. I also live in AZ Dan. Keep up the great work.
Getting a treadmill has been a game changer for me. I’ve realized it wasn’t the walking I’m actually avoiding but that I don’t like walking around my neighborhood and I don’t like driving places just to go for a walk. Now that I can do it in my own home I’ve a been staying consistent.
Was thinking this! I hate aimlessly walking with no destination/purpose so I was looking into a treadmill in the back yard? But boy are they expensive! Damn!
Love this format, seriously a great improvement. I've been watching your vids for more than a year, this is my favorite setup. Also, even more important, the more fluid and less robotic structure and talking made it a lot easier to follow the video! Hope the feedback gets to you, I think this is really an improvement
Waking is a also my source of inspiration. Don't listen too much while walking. Stop smoking. I did it after I recognize I lose hair and decided to stop. 20 years later the evidence: still have hair. Just because you've mentioned it one time
Thank you Dan. Your message here avout walking really resonates with what I’ve been looking for for a few weeks now to implement during my mornings. Will definitely dedicate myself to this habit for the rest of the month. Most likely I will continue this since it resonates as much as daily meditation and writing has done for me in the past.
Sorry! I was voice texting!!😂. I don't like to text or call while I'm walking!!! You get the jist... I appreciate you! Thank you for being such an incredible human being! Definitely living your blue print!!Thanks, brother!❤
Dude. Thanks for this vid. I’m starting tomorrow morning. Squeezing in a 30 minute walk after my content creation time block and my business management time block. Hoping it will be a good transitional activity. ✌🏻
I agree 100%, i try to walk 5-5.5miles every morning, when my kids are in school I stick to that 100% but during summer because of change in kids schedule I am not able to do and I typically feel it.
Some quotes that I liked: All behavior starts with a conscious or unconscious goal. Every single action you take can be mapped to a goal you are pursuing. The question is, did you set that goal or were you quietly programmed by the media your parents your teachers and your friends? You don't have to do anything you're doing if XYZ holds more important to you. (Insert whatever holistic habit into XYZ.)
I haven’t even watched it yet but I go for long walks, the past 2 days my emotion has been all over the place, cried so many times, so sad that I skipped my walk but this morning I got up and went for a walk/run and got back and felt so much better 😅
I walked for 3 weeks in the morning 🌄 and lowered my blood pressure. This delayed being put on pressure pills. Health benefits are there, natural, and no drugs.
@@VicDamoneJr82 that's a complex question for a youtube comment hehe on a personal level, i've learned the importance of continuous growth and being open to new perspectives. LIFE has taught me to embrace challenges, learn from failures, and appreciate the small moments. sharing and connecting with others has been a big part of this journey. And what have you learned?
This video is life changing, the level of inefficiency and corruption in this administration is becoming absurd. Those who are disabled and do not receive the support to which they are legally entitled make me sad. I sincerely thank you, Leah Foster Alderman. Imagine making $6k in four days with an investment of $1.5k.
That woman transformed my entire life for the better. Among the folks I've met, Leah appears to be the most trustworthy. I'm surprised you know her as well.
I don’t particularly “love” walking, but it’s something that I do for mental and emotional reasons and it’s become a habit without me intending to do so. If I have the option to walk, I always choose it so I can be with Inner Me. I have noticed that walking as early in the morning as possible for at least 15 mins. per day helps me feel more energized when I wake up in the morning. I don’t snooze or fall back asleep like I did before. Walking has also helped me work thru any emotions that I couldn’t immediately bring back to neutral. Instead of sitting in all that energy I would bring it outside and let Nature absorb it :)
Damn! I literally am out of you ha ha!! And now I'm on my walk with me to this! I love synchronicity thank you for the incredible content and value you bring into my life!❤
Walking helped me an immense ammount, I got great ideas during the walks. I did walk around 2 hours a day,averaging 15-16000 steps a day. 1 hour at 6 AM in the morning and I would walk in the evening before bed. Really this year I havent been walking enough and Im not in the shape I was a year ago. I did go today and enjoyed the walk so much. I feel like going on a walk in the town is way simplier than living in the countryside, but I feel like no excuse is good enough. I do prefer running when I am out town.
I started walking 10k steps a day because I hate my life. I keep complaining but I didn’t do a single thing to change it. i keep repeating the cycle and go on about the routine that I hate. Then I was like, if I don’t change there’s no way everything will be different from now on so I started to go for an hour+ for walking after work. It’s been two weeks I still dislike my life and the city I’m living but i’m not as miserable as I was before. It sure does improve my mental health. Planning on doing it for 90 days straight. I’m tryna see what will happen physically and mentally.
For those complaining walking 10,000 steps is too much, skip to min 25 and start small, even if you go on a walk for 5 mins outside your place, take a note and celebrate your win for the day, next day same, until your energy is higher than your fuckn excuses. Note for myself, thanks! 🙏🏼

That's why I run every day, it makes everything go away.
I was going to ask this question if you run, will this still apply?
If you can run for hours it applies what is important is to walk for. Long times like an hour or something which make you comfortable of physical and mental hard works and you can focus even while standing which is also great

They went from skinny to slightly normal, to proportionate for my body type. Huge win for a guy who always hated wearting shorts.
Your commitment to walking is truly impressive! Incorporating such a rigorous routine, especially with your early morning and evening walks, shows incredible discipline and dedication. The physical transformations, like weight loss and improved muscle tone, are fantastic outcomes, but the mental and emotional benefits are equally significant. It's fascinating how something as simple as walking can lead to profound changes in our lives. Your story is a testament to the power of consistency and perseverance. Keep up the great work!
@@CibitiPro Thanks. I made it to my desired weight, so now I'm just doing my 8k steps at 5 am. I'll go several days in a row and listen to my body. If I get achy, I'll take a day off. One thing I did add is walking lunges for the last few hundred feet. I could barely do 10 the first time I tried. Now I shoot for 100 straight. Big gains in balance and coordination.
This is my new favourite youtube channel.
welcome to the club :)
Walking meditation is as important as sitting meditation in my experience, there are many benefits to it
@ 22:53 Step 1. List out every single thing you don’t like in your life.. from that list write down the opposite (all the things you do want (or you think you want)) 1 year from now
@23:11 Step2- set a daily goal and sub-goals
@ 25:09 Step 3- create rules for walks
@ 26:23 Step 4- Go on the walk (have a trigger)
@ 25:57 your expectations & limiting beliefs are ruining your potential
I recently had umbilical hernia surgery and walking was all I could do for exercise over the last month. Previously I regularly went to yoga, the gym (probably what caused the hernia) and a wide variety of outdoor sports.
I have to say, I totally agree with your observations with walking! I’m now hooked as well to walking outside everyday! I was walking (3x) morning, noonish and just before sunset. Breaking up my day this way has been a game changer for me. I do look forward to strategically lifting weights again, but walking while listening to valuable content or nothing at all has been far more valuable than sitting around scrolling aimlessly on social media. 💪🙌
Not only I have clarity on things by walking. I've lose a lot of weight from it.
great video, I started getting up 2 hours earlier than usual and spending 45m in the gym, and the remaining time walking. I live near the sea so it is something I look forward to as it’s very relaxing. I wish I started this walking routine years ago
I was listening to this during my walk!. I do however enjoy the walking meditation and focusing on my breath and letting go of thoughts. That's when the best ideas come to me. I enjoy all you content!
Started with 6k steps 3 months ago, now I'm levelling up to 10k steps. Thanks to your video I can add more value to my walk.
I got into walkiing becasue it's slow... my mind is racing with things battling for attention, the world seems to be constantly racing to get somewhere and there's a lot of stress... but when I walk the madness goes away. I take things at my pace, I get fresh air and sunlight. My brain gets a chance to think, not to be overwhelmed, but to properly have time to consider what I realling feel and what actually matters. And if I'm lucky when I walking into a park for a while or at least get away from the traffic and sirens, I find nature. Maybe it just some flowers and insects or maybe it's birds or squirrels... and I get to remember how amazing the natural world is, how awesome it is to experience life. Walking is a primal thing that we should remember to do everyday. Peace guys, be happy, walk more :) x
Dan, I agree that walking has so many benefits, from aiding digestion after a meal to a more relaxed sleep cycle.
I went Carnivore diet two weeks ago and the results have been amazing. A 64 year old guy going hulk mode. It has been incredible in many ways.

Way to go,
53 yr old woman here, I went carnivore 7 weeks ago and I’ve been able to improve pretty much everything. I have been exercising more and some of that is walking and I do realize it’s amazing, now I found this video.
Now I got to get everything else in life going, including the side business I have been wanting to begin.
@@KatJaguar1122 Awesome. It is mentally amazing! I used to ruminate like a badger, but that is totally gone, and has left me with calmness and clarity! It has really helped my on-camera performance for my YT Channel. Sorry Dan for the side track.
Wow I am 24 and watching you guys at 50s and 60s gives me motivation to grind harder.
We have so much energy and so much time in our 20s yet we waste all the time on social media, scrolling useless memes.
Respect for both of you though!
Keep shining
I went Carnivore 2 weeks ago as well!☺️ I'm 51 and also love long walks. I call them my Forest Gump walks because I could probably keep going 😂 Be blessed💜
I don't know where I first heard this, but I've adopted it as my own.....
"I walk for my soul. My body just follows along."
This channel has given me more personal insight than any other on UA-cam.
I have long done an HIIT workout at home in the mornings before breakfast (up to 30% more effective fat burning) and gym in the evenings 3x weekly with intermittent fasting in between days. That helps greatly but walking is a habit that is a great addition to this as lifestyle.

Started daily walks again, not sure why I ever stopped. The hardest part about all of this is believing its this simple.
Walking is one of the greatest cheat codes of life that many people don’t understand.
Walking 3x day changed my life and people thought I was doing it for physical exercise when it was moreso mental exercise and creativity.
Thanks for the reminder and allowing me to not feel misunderstood for once 💯✍🏾
Walking indeed acts as a "cheat code" for life, offering numerous benefits beyond physical exercise. The mental and creative stimulation it provides can be transformative, helping to clear the mind and spark new ideas. Your practice of walking three times a day and experiencing significant life changes highlights the power of this simple yet effective habit. It’s a reminder that often, the most impactful actions we can take for our well-being are straightforward and accessible. Keep walking and embracing the clarity and creativity it brings.
Dan, I am so excited for this! I experienced same.
A note to Devon, please leave images up for a little longer, so we can take them in fully.
This was almost a perfect length to listen to on my first walk today. Good stuff, Dan!
excellent knowledge as always..my one and only trustworthy channel.
Walking has saved my life so many times. I love that you’re talking about this. It’s simply the most simple way to feel alive it’s unreal what it does.
I like to walk barefoot, on cement or ground, NOT asphalt (it’s not grounding and has toxins that you absorb through feet).
Added benefit. You have to take your time a bit more and be mindful of your walking. And there’s a transition period if you’re not used to it, due to using different physiology when walking.
Dan, the way you have communicated on this topic; sharing your journey of “self honesty” {relaxed non-hype manner} and all the nuances of self-observation / life reflections {and “dynamics of your Self-Awareness” } , in this brief yet Profound monologue, makes this one of my all-time favorite “Self Awareness~ Self Development” presentations ever. Truly of Service to others who {like I} Resonate so “on point” with the message conveyed. With Much Appreciation in Return, posting link below in hopes it may be received in the spirit of of the Sincere Gratitude with which it is sent to you:
I can only agree!!! When I got my dog I didn't have any excuses anymore to not go on walks, and it has really changed my life. It's also a lot more fun to have a companion while doing it 🥰
I love long brisk walks listening to my podcast/ music / talking to the person i am walking with. It’s peaceful, resolving, & takes away most of the stress.
@DanKoeTalks_r would love to partake in that.
Even just 5-6K steps/day is sufficient according to science to get some benefit.
My daily steps goal is at 11,000 steps but averaging about 11,800/day.
So, yeah, highly recommended & super easy to do. Plus, you can dictate ideas 💡 into Google Keep which automatically transcribes into text.
You are very good at arguing. You made me read an article about walking and convinced me to go for a walk! Hahaha! Thanks! 🌹
Thank You Dan! I usually walk, so now i can work more this inside > walk meditation!
Man your insights are so consistent it s really good to hear such a well articulated mind. Thank you for your contribution to our world.
Keep going fam
Started walking nearly every day with my mom and sometimes my girlfriend. Working our way up to 4 miles and eventually 5 miles a day. I can’t describe it but I just feel so much better during the days after I take a long walk versus not. Also helps me sleep better
Great video! It just made me think how far we’ve gone - to need systems for the simplest of things like walking, sleeping, talking to people, etc. It seems that this brings so much more stress into our lives since everything has to be conscious now, you have to get out of your way in order to live a normal life.
Compare this to our parents or grandparents who just lived their lives in the real world and this was just how it was by default for them. Imagine telling your grandfather that you need to gamify daily walks.
It's also a huge way of dominating one's local environment. Walking is the perfect speed to observe the environment while still being able effect that environment, skating and biking and will let you breeze by situations, but at the same time because of that speed you probably won't stop to observe or engage in the environment around you. Walking is a constant engagement with local environment.
Hallelujah 🙌🏻!!!!! The daily jesus devotional has been a huge part of my transformation, God is good 🙌🏻🙌🏻. I was owing a loan of $49,000 to the bank for my son's brain surgery, Now I'm no longer in debt after I invested $11,000 and got my payout of $290,500 every month…God bless Mrs Christy Fiore ❤️
Hello!! how do you make such monthly, I’m a born Christian and sometimes I feel so down of myself 😭 because of low finance but I still believe God
Thanks to my co-worker (Carson ) who suggested Ms Christy Fiore
She's a licensed broker here in the states🇺🇸 and finance advisor.
After I raised up to 525k trading with her I bought a new House and a car here in the states🇺🇸🇺🇸 also paid for my son's surgery….Glory to God, shalom.
Can I also do it??? My life is facing lots of challenges lately
I watched this while getting my steps goal in for the day. I’m in my 3rd week of hitting my daily steps goal. I also live in AZ Dan. Keep up the great work.
Getting a treadmill has been a game changer for me. I’ve realized it wasn’t the walking I’m actually avoiding but that I don’t like walking around my neighborhood and I don’t like driving places just to go for a walk. Now that I can do it in my own home I’ve a been staying consistent.
Was thinking this! I hate aimlessly walking with no destination/purpose so I was looking into a treadmill in the back yard? But boy are they expensive! Damn!
I don't like the cheap walking pads they look unstable
@GroundbreakGames
Walking is good ! , but I love to do gardening when I spend time in nature 😊
Love this format, seriously a great improvement. I've been watching your vids for more than a year, this is my favorite setup.
Also, even more important, the more fluid and less robotic structure and talking made it a lot easier to follow the video! Hope the feedback gets to you, I think this is really an improvement
Waking is a also my source of inspiration. Don't listen too much while walking.
Stop smoking. I did it after I recognize I lose hair and decided to stop. 20 years later the evidence: still have hair. Just because you've mentioned it one time
Thank you Dan. Your message here avout walking really resonates with what I’ve been looking for for a few weeks now to implement during my mornings. Will definitely dedicate myself to this habit for the rest of the month. Most likely I will continue this since it resonates as much as daily meditation and writing has done for me in the past.
This is a best and most trustable yt channel for health ,productive life ,business and money. ..
Sorry! I was voice texting!!😂. I don't like to text or call while I'm walking!!! You get the jist... I appreciate you! Thank you for being such an incredible human being! Definitely living your blue print!!Thanks, brother!❤
This is such a motivating and positive channel & talk.Thank you Dan💜
Dude. Thanks for this vid. I’m starting tomorrow morning. Squeezing in a 30 minute walk after my content creation time block and my business management time block. Hoping it will be a good transitional activity. ✌🏻
I agree 100%, i try to walk 5-5.5miles every morning, when my kids are in school I stick to that 100% but during summer because of change in kids schedule I am not able to do and I typically feel it.
Listening while walking! 😂 Dan has become one of my favorite creators for good info
Some quotes that I liked:
All behavior starts with a conscious or unconscious goal. Every single action you take can be mapped to a goal you are pursuing. The question is, did you set that goal or were you quietly programmed by the media your parents your teachers and your friends?
You don't have to do anything you're doing if XYZ holds more important to you. (Insert whatever holistic habit into XYZ.)
I haven’t even watched it yet but I go for long walks, the past 2 days my emotion has been all over the place, cried so many times, so sad that I skipped my walk but this morning I got up and went for a walk/run and got back and felt so much better 😅
I walked for 3 weeks in the morning 🌄 and lowered my blood pressure. This delayed being put on pressure pills. Health benefits are there, natural, and no drugs.
This video really landed for me. Thanks Dan for the encouragement and inspiration to start walking again. I needed to hear this.
Dan pls do a re-upload on how to start a UA-cam channel, that video was extremely valuable
Did you start a yt channel the first time around?
Another Power Video From Dan Lets Do This💥
I think I’ve watched all of your videos 2 times. This is one of my top 5 without a doubt. Good job
For anyone freaked out by 10k steps, there is still a huge benefit to 4-6k steps a day. Literally one step at a time (har har).
I don’t know why but im addicted to your channel this is the 3rd video I watch , I love it! Thanks brother cheers from Toronto
what have you learned?
@@VicDamoneJr82 that's a complex question for a youtube comment hehe on a personal level, i've learned the importance of continuous growth and being open to new perspectives. LIFE has taught me to embrace challenges, learn from failures, and appreciate the small moments. sharing and connecting with others has been a big part of this journey. And what have you learned?
@@alfredoistic sounds like a lot of common sense I don’t think you needed someone to tell you
@@VicDamoneJr82 Learning is all about building on what you already know. Even 'common sense' can be a foundation for deeper understanding.
new video format is getting better and better
keep it up dude!
This video is life changing, the level of inefficiency and corruption in this administration is becoming absurd. Those who are disabled and do not receive the support to which they are legally entitled make me sad. I sincerely thank you, Leah Foster Alderman. Imagine making $6k in four days with an investment of $1.5k.
That woman transformed my entire life for the better. Among the folks I've met, Leah appears to be the most trustworthy. I'm surprised you know her as well.
I've noticed a lot of people talking about Leah, she must be amazing for everyone to be saying so many wonderful things about her.
Please tell me how I can get her help because I'm new to this.
"Leah Foster Alderman"
That's her name, search her up using the name above!
Even short walks are revolutionary for someone whos a couch potato
@DanKoeTalks_I only if you say the password
I don’t particularly “love” walking, but it’s something that I do for mental and emotional reasons and it’s become a habit without me intending to do so. If I have the option to walk, I always choose it so I can be with Inner Me.
I have noticed that walking as early in the morning as possible for at least 15 mins. per day helps me feel more energized when I wake up in the morning. I don’t snooze or fall back asleep like I did before.
Walking has also helped me work thru any emotions that I couldn’t immediately bring back to neutral. Instead of sitting in all that energy I would bring it outside and let Nature absorb it :)
I love the way you're talking in this one, you sound super happy brother
So many great ideas and healthy habits came from those walks, it’s really inspiring and therapeutic for me. Great content!
Beautifully put. Thank you.
Incredible insights. Thank you, Dan.
Yes it is POSSIBLE for us too. Thank you dear friend for this sharing 🙏
I'm a fitness content creator, I wanna grow my channel to this to this level and beyond
This resonates with me very much Dan. Thank you for sharing this.
I’m learning English to better follow your content. I’m from Brazil 🇧🇷. congratulations very top.
Good to learn from you Koe... Richard for Ghana
Excellent message. Thank you
I had become inconsistent in walking, but, prioritized walking over other things today and boom! fresh ideas and drive
Damn! I literally am out of you ha ha!! And now I'm on my walk with me to this! I love synchronicity thank you for the incredible content and value you bring into my life!❤
Walking definitely is a game changer, great for mental clarity and getting steps in while potentially listening to something productive 🎧😊🚶♂️
❤ I take walks with my wife I consider it our conversation time.
Walking helped me an immense ammount, I got great ideas during the walks. I did walk around 2 hours a day,averaging 15-16000 steps a day. 1 hour at 6 AM in the morning and I would walk in the evening before bed. Really this year I havent been walking enough and Im not in the shape I was a year ago. I did go today and enjoyed the walk so much. I feel like going on a walk in the town is way simplier than living in the countryside, but I feel like no excuse is good enough. I do prefer running when I am out town.
DK logo looks good!
Hey lovely Dan ! how do i get out of the Matrix ? like start a own business… etc?
