You don’t owe anyone a damn thing. Do only what you love and pursue what you want to pursue. For yourself, and not anyone else.

Did you have a good swim anyway?

I think its been about 10 years since I started following you, I listened to every episode of Entreprogrammers, watched all your Pluralsight courses, bought all your books, courses, paid for Bulldog mindset for bit .. its been a wild ride

you are one of the best john, i really appreciate the wisdom that you share with us it has being of great help, and i wanted to find the new channel

She changed you for the best

... and that's exactly why I listen to you and not someone like a Peterson or a Tate. Their dogmatism and tunnel vision has actually led to a destructive, cult - like mindset in certain groups regarding certain topics, even though "some of" their content is actually valuable. You're way better than those kind of influencers and that is why you keep growing and attract audiences from so many different walks of life. Every successful man is gonna have haters, that's okay... I'm not hating on them nor am I worshipping you but this has just been my observation and I'm so glad to have found a mentor like you. Your advice actually comes from a good place and is genuine. That is extremely rare on the internet these days... Doesn't matter if I'm watching a Bulldog Mindset video from 5 years ago or a recent Better Than Perfect podcast, your advice is always coming from a good place and I can intuitively tell that. Congrats for succeeding with the new channel, John! 🎉 Super happy for you and I can't wait to learn more from you in every area of life you explore thoroughly in that phase of your life. All growth is good growth. PS: I just noticed that you stopped posting on the Stoic channel. I'm pretty behind and am still catching up but those videos are extremely helpful. If not on RUclips, maybe another section in the Bulldog Mindset membership for those videos? Just an idea.

Obvious tell-tale signs of Maldives. I absolutely love the place! Been there 4 times.

Place looks amazing, in the Caribbean?

Congrats on your success with the latest video! I’m happy for you man. I’m with you all the way. Keep going.

I don't think it even needs to just be "outgrowing", people's interests just change over time, once you've fully explored a topic it can be less interesting and thus you head into a new area of life to explore. For example when I see these red pill channels that have been around for years it's like, how are these guys not bored of talking about the same topic of female nature for years and years

Ruined their ideal of you. They are just self soothing because they are upset, it happens.

The amazing development of men. Good book that explains this

How about a financial advice guy?

Change often comes with looking stupid to other people for a while, no one has all the answers, we just stumble into "purpose". Best of luck to you John.

respect man for all the help your provided so far in your journey through life! seriously respect 🫡 Mentor

The water looks good

What if the prize was not worth the struggle.

You have big arms bro

New idea: you teach people how to write C++ ;)

Putting the fire back in the bedroom, saving sexless marriages etc sounds like a really good idea, and probably much needed

Hey John. I have liked a lot of your videos throughout your career. I think you'll do fine in whatever you do. As long as it's not just about the money that is giving you satisfaction as a coach. Some of the most successful people did what they love but money wasn't the primary goal. If you're truly committed to helping people, I'm sure you'll do fine.

I think it's a great idea

Looking forward to it. Thank you.

I still don't understand why you focused on dating coaching your picking a super saturated markets that's dramatically less profitable. Few people are gonna pay 200$ an hour for relationship coaching just being honest John

What happened to the cinematic videos you said you were making that would get 1 million views Bulldog?

To save you 7 min - very likely that he got this content from Josh Hudson (who's an actual licensed marriage counselor). He's been talking about this stuff for 4 years, and John Sonmez has been on his channel... hence where the "inspiration" comes from. Watered down version of someone else's ideas.

John have you not considered another business besides simply making content? Why not try something you haven't done before. RUclips is small hanging fruit.

I still have no idea why your doing relationship coaching, your cutting your own revenue in a hypersaturated market, entrepenuership is more profitable and you could niche down on what your experienced at. I personally don't think people are going to be pay you 200$ an hour for relationship coaching when I can read a book for 15$ on the given subject,

Hi Jon, I’m in a kinda weird spot in life rn and would really appreciate some advice, I’m 23 just graduating college with a useless degree. I am a relatively handsome guy and 6 ft tall though so I starting using a dating app two months ago and take social anxiety meds when on dates, and have actually had success getting second dates, and even getting laid. One girl has become an fwb that I’ve slept with 5 times now. I got friendzoned on first date by one of the six I met. But I know if I’m not in a real career within a few years (or get out of shape) I will lose my ability to get girls. Also right now I’m pretty weak as a man (not a man yet tbh) so a relationship would probably be a disaster (not something I’d consider at this point) What career path do you recommend? trade school? cyber security? is it too late to enter those since I probably wouldn’t get a career till late 20s? I really don’t know what to do career wise, but I can tell if I don’t choose something quick and work hard at it, it’s gonna be a real problem. Great video btw, I can relate a lot to it at this stage in life haha

I’m 42 and merit didn’t matter 20 years ago. It was all about who you knew then and still is today. As for with women pre cellphone it was easier. Women have waaaay too many perceived options now. Hoe_math really shows that most men are non people for this very reason.

Thanks for sharing your honest insights, John! It's incredibly valuable to hear someone speak so openly about the drive for female validation, which I agree is something many guys, including myself, have experienced either openly or subconsciously. Your journey from external to internal validation is truly inspiring. Appreciate your transparency and the lessons it brings!

A massive human paradigm shift is occurring.

You can’t even get on social media without seeing 100s of thirst traps. The internet has put female nature on full display.

I don't' understand why your trying to sell marriage John. If it works for you great but it is objectively a bad deal. Contractual marriage that involves the government is obsolete.

because of men like you who rag on other men

My corny, unwarranted advice: Trust in G-d.

interesting video

All I ever did was for validation of women. Saying otherwise was cope. Most dorks still cope this way.

Growing up as a dorky nerd has left you with a bunch of unresolved trauma. I see a lot of guys that never grow out of it.

It still is you fukken jerk.

Damn dude, how long were you with Nicole before you tried to get back with your wife?

All men do it there’s no way around it. You could tell yourself all day long that you’re doing it for yourself, but you’re not you’re doing it to have sex with as many women as you can.

biological imperatives are the reason we're breathing right now and its really the only driver for humans biologically or some even say, empirically. If you had more kids, you'd be motivated in more ways. Would be cool if you had a son, I know you mentioned in a previous video having a vasotomy but they can be reversed loved the video, the journey of self-knowledge is the greatest journey out there and its always interesting to see others with the courage to express it, thanks

Hey John, long time supporter here. First of all I want to say I deeply appreciate your honesty and it's one of the things that keeps me coming back to your channel when I have out grown many others of a similar elk. I am going to be honest, I am disappointed that this was true about you for the majority of your time on RUclips. And if others are feeling the same I think it is deserved only because you always talked about being self-motivated. I understand it's nuanced since you were unaware of your own motives, but it's only natural for your fans to feel this way. That being said I am curious as to why you still train and read books now that you're happily married to your dream girl? You can say that "I'm doing it for me", but my question in response is "how do you know that?". Since you have been deceiving yourself for years how do you know if you are not just doing it again. "I just know" or "It feels different" also seems inadequate because I can very easily see past John responding the same way. I know some of my comments may seem harsh, I am not saying for the sake of saying it. I do believe that you are on a depression loop that won't end until you gain clarity with your true motives and you truly live by your own principle of being self-motivated. I wish you the best of luck in your journey John.

I completely agree with John’s arch. I’m following him for a long time, and he is great. Sometimes I agreed, sometimes not. But he is talking facts. John you are great!

I've never wanted to simped or done stuff for girls

John you don't need all this stuff to attract girls lol. Sorry but I gotta disagree with you. I've seen plenty of lazy slobs do nothing and get girls. I don't think accomplishing things just for chicks is a good motivation
