Hey Sara, can you please tell me what this is behind you in the background at 00:47. Is this a screen with a video running or is this some kind of art? I really really want to have it.

"If you do what you love everyday then you will never work a day in your life"....that's been my mantra in trying to finally push and start my study/productivity channel and be intentional about how i spend my time, like deliberately watching more ali videos :)
Focus on one thing at a time -- great insight. I agree completely -- it's easy to get caught up in the idea of chasing the next squirrel, but it's often persistence in one thing that gets you way further.
It's never too late to start! I realized recently that if you want to do something you should just start it right away and figure out how to do it as you go - and then by the time you're good, you'll have been doing it forever and have that traction. Thanks for sharing. :)
I've been creating for RUclips since March(ish) and honestly this has been one of my biggest fears - that my stuff isn't original. But I think you've hit the nail on the head when you say that as long as you put lots of yourself into it, it's still a valid piece of creative content/ a remix! Thanks for this, great video as always!
Awesome tips Ali for finding your passion and becoming a content creator. Finding passion in our work is huge especially for us that feel like we're just drifting through life. I've had this problem for the longest time, and it wasnt until I found my passion in filmmaking that I finally found meaning and purpose in my work.

Excellent comeback from the last vid bro! Quite a lot of insight from the interview. I particularly liked the explanation as to why anyone would keep making videos about which others have made awesome vids already. The message can be same, but messengers are unique. Cool!
This also reminded me of a post on dev.to about starting blogging. If you look in any grocery store at how many brands of water there are you should feel comfortable adding your voice to the world if there’s so much diversity in something as simple as water
This has been a wonderful video. I have always wanted to start a youtube but I didn't think I was interesting enough or the market was really saturated. I finally found something that I am passionate about and I can't wait to start talking about it.

Thanks for this video Ali! "What value do I provide?" Has been a question I've been asking myself for a while and it's definitely something that has stopped me from creating videos. It's great to hear you and Sara's point of view on this!
@@trevorkhisa Yes happens , but I think he would have noticed it and the reason he's making the change . Lets see what new things he Can bring up this week .
This video has made me carry on :) I love creating content on yt too and like you said - I talked myself out of it saying it’s too saturated etc. But your video has confirmed that it doesn’t matter ... JUST START NOW! :) 💕
If you’re reading this - find something you truly love, something that you enjoy and are fully enthusiastic about and just go for it. Less dwelling, more doing. You’ll thank yourself 10 years from now when you’ve established an entire business around that little hobby you loved your whole life. Now you’re successful AND happy. That’s how to live a fulfilling life.
Hi Ali, my this question isn't related to this video. I have a request if you could tell something about iPadOS 14, it's new features and how worth it is? Also should one risk the device by downloading the beta version?
I wonder, is that still the 15" (2018) MacBook you've shown in your video last year? Or have you upgraded? My Computer recently died and I am in need of a new one, preferably a laptop because I need a mobile Workstation and wondered what your MacBook specs are?
You can hear the disdain and self comparison in his voice when comparing himself to hani. Hani is amazing because she is so genuine and down to earth and speaks out not because she’s desperate for followers (she actually shits a lot on the med bros of the world/RUclips which include Ali). She’s popular because she doesn’t seek to be popular. that’s authenticity.
Big smile comes across my face whenever Matt D'avella is mentioned. So happy he is getting the recognition he deserves. Such a master mind. He is definitely my favourite RUclipsr right up there with Thomas.
Without Failing you will NEVER learn. You will have to take Risks.. And most importantly Have Confidence and believe in you. Failure is an Option. Gain the courage to do it, trust me you Will do it if you have a passion. Don't be scared. Just do it:)
Idk how this might help, but what I plan to do is ALWAYS keep a Plan B ready or atleast have a rough idea in my mind cuz I'm a person who always pictures the 'worst scenario' which doesn't always help me and kind of limits what i do but it gives me a sense of security before I go for something which I'm not that sure of. So....have something as a backup plan and just GO FOR IT!!! 🔥 WILL BE ROOTING FOR YOU!!! ❤️
Hi Ali, you said you still struggle with the worry of not being original and have to remind yourself that "there are no unique messages, only unique messengers". Well, I am a unique messenger telling you this: Often I find it takes a few times hearing the same content from slightly different perspectives to fully internalise it. I never think "oh Thomas Frank covered this, why is Ali repeating it?". Rather, I'll watch one of your videos or listen to the podcast and if it's the 2nd or 3rd time I've come across that concept, then maybe that's the time it clicks and I'll start applying the idea in real life. So I at least find it useful to hear the "same content" more than once!
Now I am watching your video at 2x✌️ I haven't qualified for the pre-medical exam in India🇮🇳 yet but I got Bsc in Programming and Data science at IIT Madras as well as an offer letter for Bachelor in Computer Application distance programme at the University of London. As for University of London, I am waiting for the scholarship results to come out. I'm pretty sure that I will not qualify for the pre medical test this time as I didn't prepare myself upto the mark. I'm planning to pursue the courses offered to me at this time and try again for pre medical test next year. As I'm self studying for the pre medical test & its my second drop year after high school, I get demotivated very easily. A few suggestions in this regard would be much appreciated! Thank you✌️

Amen to that!
If there's a market for it and you're passionate about it then you're probably on to a winner
With the internet, there’s a market for about every niche. There is apparently a podcast for Richard Simmons fans that’s top of the charts. Lol
there is a market for simps and tech simps is a good niche for her to spread her ass for.
That’s it. That’s the key to success. Find something you love + are other people interested in the same thing? If yes, then keep going
Congrats on 900k Nearly @ 1M bro

My boi Ali at it again, love you man, U inspire me... there's my best compliment.
Wow I LITERALLY just finished your Deep Dive and the creative life podcast RIGHT BEFORE THIS. LOVE THIS.
This channel is so underrated, the editing is great
When your passion is your career, you never get to work again❤
There are no unique messages, only unique messengers. Thanks Ali
Love how much content there suddenly is Ali, keep it up! ;)

Congrats 900K....getting closer to a million
I agree that being self aware is important in terms of fulfillment, so i try my best to not overpromise myself so that i wont under deliver
I am a digital marketer but tech is my passion and now working on it to turn it into my profession.
I've been loving Sara's channel lately! Listened to your episode on her podcast recently 😊 Great collab!
I was waiting for this kind of video for a long time . Thank you,
Ali!
This is so good! Love the work Ali!

I didn't know Sara. "Now is always the perfect time to start". I already love her.
Hey Doctor ! Ur videos have a charm to it like none other along with being useful ❤❤❤
This has been a wonderful video. I have always wanted to start a youtube but I didn't think I was interesting enough or the market was really saturated. I finally found something that I am passionate about and I can't wait to start talking about it.
Dr Hani is amazing !!!

I needed this. Thanks for posting
Congrats Ali for showing women`s work on your videos. These are the kind of things that really make a change.

"I don't have any passions apart from video games and anime" - Didn't need to call me out like that.
I loved this video! thank you for sharing..so ready to create more consistently! :)
He’s getting back on track , the Ali I personally like 😊🔥
That last video was honestly so bad

I Wish there was someone like Ali from engineering sector 😩 this guy makes me want to change may career ahh always motives me for study
I missed this video because I didn't recognize the thumbnail! Glad I found it
Wow, living off your passion might just be the best thing in the world. I would love to have a job in the future which I thing of as a hobby!!! :)
Love how Sarah's so chill despite her RUclips fame. Do your thing to pursue "success" but try to stay chill.
Hi Ali, my this question isn't related to this video. I have a request if you could tell something about iPadOS 14, it's new features and how worth it is? Also should one risk the device by downloading the beta version?
Your videos are like a listening test for me haha, greetings from México.

Have you tried teaching on Highbrow? Are there any other passive income ideas that you are looking into at the moment?
I wonder, is that still the 15" (2018) MacBook you've shown in your video last year? Or have you upgraded?
My Computer recently died and I am in need of a new one, preferably a laptop because I need a mobile Workstation and wondered what your MacBook specs are?
What is the website for Nebula? I'm low vision and I didn't see it or find it in the description.

Good video, very insightful.
Love this!

Great video, you should turn these deep dives into podcasts!
I am gonna be honest.
I did not like your last video,
But damn,
This is the type of content, I subscribed for.
Plz make video on how to find your passion plzzzz
Hanni also had a large Instagram following, but yeah it's crazy I was recommended a video by her
This is the perfect description of the allmighty Matt D'avella
The new RUclipsr Dr Hani's growth rate is actually baffling !!!
I wanna do music as a career but I'm scared of failing. What should I do :/
Without Failing you will NEVER learn. You will have to take Risks.. And most importantly Have Confidence and believe in you. Failure is an Option. Gain the courage to do it, trust me you Will do it if you have a passion. Don't be scared. Just do it:)

Keep trying new things until something sticks. Sink your life into it and a truly beautiful thing can be produced.
