What I've found is that initially it was hard for me to identify with most people. This was depressing at first. But now those feelings have subsided. I'm perfectly fine with not being able to connect with most people. What is now normal... seems to be very unhealthy.

@royxrp1510 Год назад

100% facts. I've always been different than most. I just sold my house in the Netherlands and moving to Thailand in November. I've started an online fitness bussiness and it's all developing so fast. I've only been at this a year. Things are moving so fast. Meanwhile most of my "friends" are still in their dead end jobs

@llthesudden9924 Год назад

Don't worry man you covered by Vax 😂😂😂

@erenyeeagah204 Год назад

same, but i was never sure if i was right ot feel this way cause i didnt wanna appear arrogant or cringe like the "im not like other guys" kinda people but i guess its true im really not like other people, not better but different. what people think is cringe or what they think in general shouldnt matter

@byDisenyo Год назад

I’ve felt like this for a very long time; hence why I started my long journey to self-improvement, in order to understand why, because being able to connect with people and form relationships is a difficult thing to get my head around, seeing other people make it look so easy also affects me negatively

Год назад

That's completely okay. Also, consider that you can connect very deeply with people that is very different than you and when you allow that it can be even better. I understand that if some core beliefs and values are not shared it hard but consider it. Maybe a person that had a different story, has different goals, comes from a different country, if you show interest, genuinely (and that's something to develop) you can create beautiful connections. I say this from the perspective of someone that "feels" that doesn't fits anywhere

@SleepChopTravels Год назад

I feel like you’re an actual friend of mine Dan. This era is pretty wild. We used to be molded by the 5 people closest to us in a physical reality. Now we can choose who we are molded by from anyone just through youtube videos. Sure there were books before, but I feel like videos hit different. This is gonna have some seriously awesome implications in the coming decades as young minds will consciously or unconsciously get molded into a seemingly infinite array of possibilities, for better and for worse.

I've had a bad day but I'm glad I clicked on this video. The things you said about being conscious, making a conscious choice, it's made me pay attention to the narrative I have in my head around this day and around the things going on right now that I can't deal with. I can make a choice, I don't have to do what I automatically do in situations like this and shut down. I can be the main character instead of being a victim of my own thoughts/circumstances.

@afraalsamkari2445 Год назад

I think the first thing you want to do is some self-care. Not just shampoo/makeup/clothes but a medical check-up and a depression check-up along with some thinking about what is your main problem. What is the thing that will make you feel neutral at least, not necessarily happy. Then, you want to remember some good stuff that you already have or happened during the last 15 years. Third, you wanna get any job just covering your basics. Fourth, hopefully, you can work on a side thing that you’ve always wanted to do like long term. I hope that wasn’t a lot of words. I am sorry you are feeling this way and I understand apathy quite well. Oh, I forgot something very important, connect with someone whom you can tell about this and he can at least listen well and help get you outdoors.

Your content simply blew my mind. I've been practicing self-awareness for the past 2 years and finally today I'm at a point where I'm starting to look for another professional path that has to do with what you said: capturing the chaos, the mess, realigning and extracting the learning from this. And not simply having a 9-6 job and enjoying the 2 hours at night doing what I really like. It's absurdly powerful what this mental programming does and acts with 95% of the world's population. And it's not easy to break out of this bubble, but I'm definitely getting there after 2 years. Thank you for the content, very enlightening! Cheers from Brazil

@kylehoorn5192 Год назад

Dan, how do you make money online besides selling people “how to make money online” courses? Not meant to be a slight, just curious what “problems of yours you are solving and selling the solution” I like the idea but all I see is you talking about how other people can make money online by solving problems but the only problem I see on this channel is that people want to learn how to make money online. Only selling the course of “make money online” without another niche/Product you sell seems a bit off to me to determine if this will work if the guy selling me the course only makes money telling me how to make money online. Can you point me to your other income streams to get a better idea of this? Thank you

@typingcat Год назад

It's a scam. Everyone of those who make money by selling books/courses/seminars on how to make money is a scammer. One example is the Kiyosaki guy. He popped up in the recommendation, so I searched RU-vid for "Kiyosaki scammer", and of course, his main source of income was selling his stupid rich dad/poor dad story.

@alexwr Год назад

Damn straight, I want an answer to this question, except I'm not going to be as nice about it. Dan, what can you offer except yet another 'make money' course? There is no point in telling everyone to make more 'money' courses because at that point you are a slightly more complicated pyramid scheme at best. Only so many people can sell a course to people teaching them how to make money online by selling online courses before it all implodes. If you do make money other ways, can you identify those streams, and they better be accessible/attainable for the people you're talking to, otherwise you're capitalising on people's desire for financial stability for your own gain whist selling these people a pipe dream. So what is it? Are you just a slightly more sophisticated grifter, or are you actually providing an option.

@csaba8774 Год назад

I'm also looking for someone who has already solved other people's problems, such as an already successful entrepreneur who has reached the top and is only giving advice because they genuinely want to help others succeed. I'm fed up with all those youtube gurus who are "making money online" and are everywhere, always trying to get you on their mailing lists or selling you their courses.

@hellucination9905 Год назад
