Need to listen to this 4-5 times. The thing I found recently is we consume so much content everyday that it’s getting hard to implement any of it. Advices everywhere, taking action nowhere
agreed. that goes for all forms of content (podcasts, books, youtube advice videos, articles, journals, research papers, etc.). i read somewhere that someone had changed their reading habits from reading 20-30+ books a year to 2-3 books a year but rereading those books several times that year. makes total sense to do that. i’m choosing to reread the Outwitting The Devil multiple times this year amongst a few other books like Tao Te ching
Love this perspective. Thought that self improvement was all about learning from the greats through their content. But the real learning happens when you convert their teachings into your own form of content. Helps with learning + I actually feel more fulfilled by creating content myself
I started to write down takeaways from videos I would watch then write down how I would implement them in my life. That way you have your game plan written down then you can write what action steps you need to implement to achieve your goal. I hope this helps!
10 takeaways. Some of them are reiterations on things I`ve heard before (even more valuable because of that) and some new insights for me. Thank you so much for a deep and insightful conversation. 1. Do who you want to be now. Want to be a writer? Write 2. Uncomfortable truth: it takes times of imbalance to get to balanced times 3. Choose the identity you want to be and cast votes for that identity. Start a notebook and write down every proof supporting that identity. Consistency bias: don`t subscribe to the society endorsed beliefs/identities and spend time on proving that points 4. Having set of rules (desired outcomes) to course correct when things are not going the way it should. Thus if something is not fitting into that desired outcome rule, the conclusion is not that it won`t work, the conclusion is how do I make it work, what I need to learn to make it work. The uncomfortableness of realization that this is not working pushes for change. 5. 2 years rule: what are the lessons you learned last 2 years. What are the things you are excited to learn next 2 years 6. Ignorance tax: how much are you paying now for not knowing 7. Physical manifestation of wrong choices: what are the things am I doing that are wrong but I don`t have physical manifestation thus I am overlooking the blind spot? 8. Working on being physically fit will be a driver for improvements in other areas 9. Sharing your ideas is creating connection with other people in myriad possible/impossible ways 10. Investing in other peoples mind - when other people benefited from your ideas/knowledge it is like having investments in the world
I feel like I'm not alone on the path. I thought I was the only one who was obsessed with learning, growing, tinkering, etc. Straight gold. Thanks Dan and Dickie 👊🏼
You are not. You are high in openness. Just like me. But we have structure our life and business and find the right people. Otherwise it feels very lonely
@@samricher I’m building a multi-passion one-person business. I wrote a whole article about it, you can read it here: imeddjabi.webflow.io/content/build-a-multi-passion-one-person-business-to-1m-in-revenue
This is so good! But I want them both to sit again and discuss after 5-7 years. When they're even ahead in the point. Most importantly, when they're married and have a family.
Mountain Valley. The routine talk, compound buildings, and software developement opened up ideas. I lost my job Oct. 2nd just turned 40 Oct. 9. I have been working on something for 7 months so im taking this time to launch my products and never clock in at a 9-5 again. Hearing you younger guys blow me out the water stirred something in me even though I've seen you both on Twitter before, I'll check back on the next podcast next year and compare notes. Noting it here 10/21/23
3 *THINGS I wrote* down: - The point you made at 2:40:09 about: you can become passionate about a thing but you're were actually passionate about learning and not particularly the "thing". I've been the guy who has seen my friends play a game that I sucked at and then gone to youtube to learn everything about the game coming back later to be the best at the game a few weeks later. Yes I also learned the Rubiks cube XD ACTION: Journal about the passions I have currently. Try to think of "do I like this passion because I like learning or I'm I doing this because of another reason". - About partying, playing video games, things that are not nessecarily correlated to making progress on your goals. I feel like I've been demonizing going to parties, drinking and gameing. It made me question, do I REALLY like those things or am I simply using my goals as an excuse to NEVER do those things again. ACTION: Think about If I really like doing those things. - Write down 3 take aways from the podcasts I listen to that actually gives me advice or an idea that I could try out. Realise I might need to learn how to put ideas into a system, like building a second brain. ACTION: Start learning and building a second brain and learn from youtube LAST ACTION: Put these into my google calender and actually take action! I'm putting in the time for these action points into my calender now :D
I always come to Dan RUclips channel but today is the time I watch this conversation I really enjoy it 😍🙏🙏. I have to watch it again, I really need this 😊
Mountain Valley spring water.... I am so grateful for this podcast, for years I have not been monetizing my numerous skills and talents because I was trying to figure out what niche did I fit in? Personal development? Spirituality? Bead embroidery and gold work? Icons embroidery? Felting? Nuno felting? Textile art? AI art? Mixed media art? Psychology? I so hated to force me fit into one box, and that was the reason I was not sharing broadly the stuff that I was creating, except for a small group of fans .. With this podcast I feel like I have gotten my permission now and it is overwhelming... Thank you, guys!!!
Mountain Valley! What an great conversation! Loved every minute of it! Growth is having problems today, you would have begged to have 2 years ago 😮this was such a gamechanger for me !! I’m always putting myself under so much pressure, to keep on going / moving forward yet now I’m thinking about where i have been 2 years ago ❤🎉 thanks so much you two
The main thing is that creating your own brand, products, business, etc is an expression of your truest self, whether or not it succeeds in financial terms. Not everything is "successful" just because you reached a certain financial utopia, but lets also not kid ourselves and know that finances is important in the whole scheme of things....Love this content!
The part where he touched on productively and being unaware of what you do not know… and asking someone (that that has done what you’ve done) to evaluate your daily schedule is genius ..so simple but extremely effective advice The schedule and structure of your day and routines helps out a great deal . Great content!
Dickie, your quote "procrastination disguised as productivity" is gold. You and Dan are wonderful teachers (and shout out to Nicolas Cole here too) regarding JUST DO IT ALREADY. Don't wait. Don't read about it. Just start. Gather data. Learn from that data. Make changes as you go. This is the way to get LEAN and hone the craft.
My god!, you and many others will fall for just about anything will you? This advice, this conversation in general is old ideas being brought back to make them sound like they are wise and helping you out. You could have know all about this crap years ago if you stop wasting time on social media listening to people who think they know everything that's best for you. The best way to home your craft is to self teach and not waste time watching the advice of others. Educate yourself and make mistakes, that's the secret sauce, vs listening to RUclips people who want to be famous.
@@CompetitionSportsNetwork So tell me how do you get this education you talk about and how do you self-teach without listening to anyone, or reading someone's book or whatever. I am curious. Do you know how people would get education in the past? By watching others do the craft. How is this different? No matter if you listen to someone or not you still need to do your work and it's great if you can have a shortcut with someone else's guidance.
Mountain Valley, wow this might be the best podcast I've ever heard. Had it on in the background. Had a great morning doing my creative work. With that said I agree with using your mind first, now I can build upon actions I've already taken, instead of listening to a podcast first and then doing nothing.
The fact that there's so much value in this conversation shows what level you're at. The idea of creating content for myself 2 years ago has already brought some new ideas. Thanks for taking the time to record it.
Mountain Valley Spring Water!!!! What an amazing conversation. I couldn't stop watching and I definitely plan on watching this more and formulating a plan for some ideas I have. Appreciate y'all for sharing your knowledge and wisdom. Bless. 🙏
I love that we have the same vision around the Gym with extra features. I jacked into the same vision/source some years ago, and it's still in my 10-year vision/plan.
Mountain Water. My biggest take away is reinforcing the idea that I refine existing ideas. One I'm currently working on is refining the original boundaries concepts into something more defined.
Listened to this one on spotify but came back here to write some of those takeaways that I liked: (had already done it in my notepad but maybe it helps someone + i can add a couple more) - Main takeaway was just your energy, you two just seem fired up about the future, have this optimistic, pro-technology, pro-internet, pro-social view of the world. It's cool to see how you two have leveraged the internet for your benefit but also think about others and community - "Everybody has a 100k product in their head" i liked that - I've had a period of time where I didn't seem to care about anything, all the things I previously cared about I just couldn't bring myself to engage with stuff, get lost in rabbit holes, etc. Probably was just depressed or sth like that. And I think when Dickie said that thing about "It's not that I care about X or Y thing, it's that I care about life" when talking about getting into stuff, I felt that. - The "writing the proof of what you wanna become" thing (that doing something that contradicts financially limiting beliefs just to be able to write it on your list of things that make you a financially abundant mindset person)
I really loved the whole idea about sharing what you're learning rather than waiting to be an expert. And also the realisation that if I'm not living the lifestyle I want right now, it's more a matter of not having the skillset yet needed to create it. Also, the daily routine really helps to get an idea of how Dan creates his day and still gets his work done but balanced with an enjoyable lifestyle.
I wanted you to elaborate on your philosophy/point of view more, and no matter how long your previous videos were, they never seemed long enough. This provides me with the much-needed clarity and understanding of where you're coming from and how I should approach the ideas I've had in my head for quite some time. Dickie was very articulate and kept his points very clearly; he should be more frequent on RUclips, though I understand he may already have a lot on his plate.
Pontificate doesn't mean think, it means to express opinion in a pompous way. I looked it up 😉. We live and learn. Thank you guys, this is all really helpful.
One of the most valuable podcasts I’ve ever listened to. I will definitely listen to multiple times. Working full time currently with an infant limits the time I have for my personal health and passion projects. Health and fitness has always been a part of my life but has fallen off snd I am determined to find the time. Insights on the time blocks for tasks really hits home, you have to do whatever it takes! Even waking at 5 am! I love hearing what it took to really shift your life. Thanks! Thanks for recording this!
Mountain Valley. Only thing I’ll say is y’all have been connecting a lot of dots for me, lot of things Ive seen, listen to and had the instinct to pursue, this was amazing thanks again. I’ll leave with “if listening to this doesn’t become an actionable takeaways, the was just mental jerking.”
Mountain Valley 🚀 Thanks for the multitude of insights and for being embodiments of possibility. I appreciate you both and look forward to acting on what I’ve learned and curating it in new ways. Keep shining and see you both at the top 3yrs from now 🙏
My major take aways - Stop procrastinating loved the two fishermen story - Writing is the fundamental thing that keeps you progressing - We all start somewhere and the growth is always dependent on how you wish to be adaptable and successful - The identity list is great for helping to be more concise about your big goals
Mountain Valley... really enjoyed your exchange and questions. Your routines, thoughts and discussion ... especially the spiritual elements struck a real chord with me.
What a Mountain valley! What I took away from this is how you highlight that there are a small number of necessary things to do, and a lot of helpful things, that are on their own not sufficient for success (like the diet and getting sleep etc.) with the strict contest to th people on that one party that were drunk but still run huge operations. That shows how much we can forget the many small things that might not fit to us and build our own thing, if we take care of the few things that really count.
Mountain valley - I found Dan this past weekend and I have learned an exponential amount in days! I’m excited to go down this journey and learn from both you and Dickie. Thank you! Time to put pen to paper
I watch a lot of Dans videos - this conversation reminds me of the conversations I have with a friend passionate about solopreneurship. Thank you so much for this.
Mountain valley! Great conversation. Big takeaway - there are different seasons for where we are in life and being aware of that and accepting it can reduce so much mental anguish. Knowing that in this season I may sacrifice a certain area in terms of focus to grow in others.
takeaways: 1. I should be doing what I want to be doing when I am 60. 2. Educate, make content, entertain, speak to through storytelling - to the version of you, 2 years ago 3. Writing down the list of things that evident towards your shift in core identity, to concrete it into your self beliefs.
This was awesome! Mountain Valley. I drink the sparkling one in between before I break my 20 hours fast. I will become entrepreneur I want to be, even though, I work full time. Thank you guys for your time, and for sharing your routines‼️
Mountain Valley - Loved the fishing story. Going to share that as I think it is a great breakdown of why you should stop overthinking, and just do things
If you only have 20 minutes to spare, focusing on these specific time stamps in the video will provide the most valuable insights for starting your one-person business and taking action: 1. Minute 13:45 - 18:15: This segment focuses on the power of consistently creating content and sharing your learning process publicly. Bush describes how he launched his writing career by committing to writing daily Twitter threads based on podcasts he was already listening to. This simple act of sharing his insights led to significant growth in his audience and ultimately resulted in his first online product. Key Takeaway: Don't wait to become an expert; start creating and sharing what you're learning now. The act of creating forces you to synthesize information, attract an audience, and build momentum. 2. Minute 26:30 - 29:00: Here, the conversation shifts to the importance of understanding your unique strengths and leveraging them to create value. Bush discusses the concept of "actualization hierarchies," emphasizing how individuals can find success by pursuing their own paths and building businesses around their passions. Key Takeaway: Focus on identifying your unique strengths and interests. Build a business that aligns with your personal growth and allows you to express your unique perspective. 3. Minute 30:30 - 34:00: This section delves into the idea of treating your business as a "public experiment" where you document your journey and share your learnings along the way. This approach fosters transparency, attracts an audience who resonates with your process, and provides valuable insights for both you and your followers. Key Takeaway: Embrace the learning process and don't be afraid to share your journey publicly. Document your challenges, experiments, and discoveries to create a compelling narrative that resonates with your audience. 4. Minute 34:30 - 38:30: Koe and Bush discuss the concept of the "ignorance tax" and emphasize the value of investing in coaching and education to accelerate your progress. They argue that seeking expert guidance can help you avoid costly mistakes and gain valuable insights that would take years to acquire independently. Key Takeaway: Be willing to invest in yourself and seek guidance from those who have already achieved what you aspire to accomplish. This strategic investment can save you time, prevent costly errors, and propel your growth. 5. Minute 51:30 - 53:00: The conversation concludes with a powerful reminder to take action on the insights gained. Koe encourages listeners to extract key takeaways, distill the information, and start creating. He emphasizes that simply listening to the conversation without applying the knowledge is equivalent to wasting time. Key Takeaway: Knowledge without action is meaningless. Commit to taking at least one concrete step based on the insights you've gained from the conversation. Hopefully this will help you get a solid understanding of Koe and Bush’s Core Principles: Start Creating, be unique, document your journey, and take action.
One biggest thing taken away... One person businesses can Bea huge success. Definitely enjoyed it. Writing on LinkedIn is the next thing I need to conquer
Mountain Valley. I'm inspired to see you gents doing so well at 26/27. I'm 34 and finally starting my entrepreneurial journey. My 20s were a haze of drugs and booze, and I've got a 10 month old daughter that takes a lot of time (not resentful, just how it is). I'm about to launch my first product that I had the knowledge to build for years but never realised until I found Dan. If you feel like it's too late, it's not. These guys built their careers in a few short years of dedicated, targeted effort. You can do the same.
Mountain Valley. It was nice spending Friday evening with you guys. Dan, your LOA and Martin references took me back. Looking forward to more of these. Going to write my 10 takeaways.
Awareness/Accountability. Don't get comfortable in good habits. For example, I train 5-6 times a week, but am I just exercising or actually training? Am I maintaining or looking to get an edge? Did I check off this video for a false accomplishment, or am I going to actually apply it today? Appreciate all the value you two!
You are making it more complicated than it is. If you workout 5-6 times a day, then you either do it because you are insecure and you think a nice body would get you chicks, or because you are a competitive body builder so which is it? Your flexing in your profile picture so you must want people to see your results.
The stop trying to be an expert is definitely a game changer for me. It's a question I've been battling myself because I would think what I if I evolve to something in the future that completely contradicts what I was preaching in the beginning and people are still following.
Mountain Valley lmao 3 Takeaways: 1. We’re all human and Dickie and Dan are just experimenting with what they love about life and then monetizing it to continue to create, build, progress, and grow. 2. Self-awareness is the highest level perspective for your life and must constantly be used to see if you’re going in the right direction. 3. Separation of tasks and limiting distractions breeds clarity and allows you to approach life with more power, input, and creative ability. Keep experimenting with morning, afternoon, and nighttime routines to see what works best for you using self awareness as the compass. Thanks for sharing this value with us guys 🙏
Mountain Valley - came here through @Ali Abdaal My takeaways: - 1:25 creator system enables people to solve base problems in their life, which enables them to then start solving creative problems. AI and computers will help get more people to that point - 1:27 creator economy will never be over-saturated because creators are constantly growing into different types of content - 1:35 education system that matches students to teachers based on teaching style and/or personality type - 3:15 you can build everything you want, but not everything, and not more than 3 at once
Mountain valley. Rearranged my home studio and you guys accompanied the whole thing. I love the framework of writing to your self two years ago. Cheers fellas

10 takeaways. Some of them are reiterations on things I`ve heard before (even more valuable because of that) and some new insights for me. Thank you so much for a deep and insightful conversation.
1. Do who you want to be now. Want to be a writer? Write

7. Physical manifestation of wrong choices: what are the things am I doing that are wrong but I don`t have physical manifestation thus I am overlooking the blind spot?
8. Working on being physically fit will be a driver for improvements in other areas
9. Sharing your ideas is creating connection with other people in myriad possible/impossible ways
10. Investing in other peoples mind - when other people benefited from your ideas/knowledge it is like having investments in the world

And also the realisation that if I'm not living the lifestyle I want right now, it's more a matter of not having the skillset yet needed to create it. Also, the daily routine really helps to get an idea of how Dan creates his day and still gets his work done but balanced with an enjoyable lifestyle.
So much leverage and value in the reinvention of a mission operator after 26yrs of service, thank you guys!
I wanted you to elaborate on your philosophy/point of view more, and no matter how long your previous videos were, they never seemed long enough. This provides me with the much-needed clarity and understanding of where you're coming from and how I should approach the ideas I've had in my head for quite some time. Dickie was very articulate and kept his points very clearly; he should be more frequent on RUclips, though I understand he may already have a lot on his plate.
Mountain valley!
Wow I feel deeply nourished from those 3 hours. Definitely going to have to go back again and write notes
Pontificate doesn't mean think, it means to express opinion in a pompous way. I looked it up 😉. We live and learn. Thank you guys, this is all really helpful.
One of the most valuable podcasts I’ve ever listened to. I will definitely listen to multiple times.
Working full time currently with an infant limits the time I have for my personal health and passion projects. Health and fitness has always been a part of my life but has fallen off snd I am determined to find the time.
Insights on the time blocks for tasks really hits home, you have to do whatever it takes! Even waking at 5 am!
I love hearing what it took to really shift your life. Thanks!
Thanks for recording this!
Great video dude , you are the only RUclipsr I watch with a pen and a notebook
One of the best podcasts I've ever heard, so amazing. Thanks
what a great conversation- I really love the long content, please do more of it.
Excited to drive into this one.
Magnificent brains together on this one. Appreciate all of the content gentlemen
10 minutes in & The Blueprint is created.. with their wisdom, & my wisdom combined
Mountain valley. Gems after gems, after gems. Thank you both.
Mountain Valley. Only thing I’ll say is y’all have been connecting a lot of dots for me, lot of things Ive seen, listen to and had the instinct to pursue, this was amazing thanks again. I’ll leave with “if listening to this doesn’t become an actionable takeaways, the was just mental jerking.”
Mountain Valley 🚀
Thanks for the multitude of insights and for being embodiments of possibility. I appreciate you both and look forward to acting on what I’ve learned and curating it in new ways. Keep shining and see you both at the top 3yrs from now 🙏
Hallelujah - what did we do to deserve this!? ❤
My major take aways
- Stop procrastinating loved the two fishermen story
- Writing is the fundamental thing that keeps you progressing
- We all start somewhere and the growth is always dependent on how you wish to be adaptable and successful
- The identity list is great for helping to be more concise about your big goals
The dynamic of your exchange of each of your experiences and ideas made the time fly by Mountain Valley
Mountain Valley... really enjoyed your exchange and questions.
Your routines, thoughts and discussion ... especially the spiritual elements struck a real chord with me.
This conversation was the mirror for a fat person for so many things in my life. Thank you guys!! Mountain Valley!
I will have to rewatch it after finishing.
This time taking notes.
Plenty of useful hints can be collected from this long, relaxed conversation.
👍
What a Mountain valley!
What I took away from this is how you highlight that there are a small number of necessary things to do, and a lot of helpful things, that are on their own not sufficient for success (like the diet and getting sleep etc.) with the strict contest to th people on that one party that were drunk but still run huge operations. That shows how much we can forget the many small things that might not fit to us and build our own thing, if we take care of the few things that really count.
Mountain valley 💗💗 a god send for me today. Reading my mind and reconfirming all I needed
Mountain Valley. Thanks you two for the frank and realistic sharing of your trial/error/adapt modes of scaling that hill. Very cool.
Great podcast guys! I sure love long-form content as well, that's why I'm here, can't convey a complicated subject in an 8-minute video LOL!
It’s crazy how relatable you guys are. Thanks for your time I appreciate you 🙏🏽
Mountain valley - I found Dan this past weekend and I have learned an exponential amount in days! I’m excited to go down this journey and learn from both you and Dickie. Thank you! Time to put pen to paper
This was brilliant indeed...! Love the super long format...Excellent...!
That was great hanging out with you guys, thx for talking and sharing the things you care about, me too.
Mountain View!!! So many connections firing! Thank you both for sharing and being my mirror.
Listened to the whole thing. Thank you both of you. On my own journey to build something of my own and I've never been happier
I watch a lot of Dans videos - this conversation reminds me of the conversations I have with a friend passionate about solopreneurship. Thank you so much for this.
Mountain valley! Great conversation. Big takeaway
- there are different seasons for where we are in life and being aware of that and accepting it can reduce so much mental anguish. Knowing that in this season I may sacrifice a certain area in terms of focus to grow in others.
takeaways:
1. I should be doing what I want to be doing when I am 60.
2. Educate, make content, entertain, speak to through storytelling - to the version of you, 2 years ago
3. Writing down the list of things that evident towards your shift in core identity, to concrete it into your self beliefs.
By the time of his book release (this month) Marks the 6 months of editing the book. He did the math and it’s spot on!!!
With mountains of gems dropped in this podcast 🔥
So much value in this episode. Thank you both for doing this!
This was awesome! Mountain Valley. I drink the sparkling one in between before I break my 20 hours fast.
I will become entrepreneur I want to be, even though, I work full time.
Thank you guys for your time, and for sharing your routines‼️
Mountain Valley - Loved the fishing story. Going to share that as I think it is a great breakdown of why you should stop overthinking, and just do things
Mountain Valley! Wow. And my 10 takeaways are priceless to me! Thank you guys!
If you only have 20 minutes to spare, focusing on these specific time stamps in the video will provide the most valuable insights for starting your one-person business and taking action:
1. Minute 13:45 - 18:15: This segment focuses on the power of consistently creating content and sharing your learning process publicly. Bush describes how he launched his writing career by committing to writing daily Twitter threads based on podcasts he was already listening to. This simple act of sharing his insights led to significant growth in his audience and ultimately resulted in his first online product.
Key Takeaway: Don't wait to become an expert; start creating and sharing what you're learning now. The act of creating forces you to synthesize information, attract an audience, and build momentum.
2. Minute 26:30 - 29:00: Here, the conversation shifts to the importance of understanding your unique strengths and leveraging them to create value. Bush discusses the concept of "actualization hierarchies," emphasizing how individuals can find success by pursuing their own paths and building businesses around their passions.
Key Takeaway: Focus on identifying your unique strengths and interests. Build a business that aligns with your personal growth and allows you to express your unique perspective.
3. Minute 30:30 - 34:00: This section delves into the idea of treating your business as a "public experiment" where you document your journey and share your learnings along the way. This approach fosters transparency, attracts an audience who resonates with your process, and provides valuable insights for both you and your followers.
Key Takeaway: Embrace the learning process and don't be afraid to share your journey publicly. Document your challenges, experiments, and discoveries to create a compelling narrative that resonates with your audience.
4. Minute 34:30 - 38:30: Koe and Bush discuss the concept of the "ignorance tax" and emphasize the value of investing in coaching and education to accelerate your progress. They argue that seeking expert guidance can help you avoid costly mistakes and gain valuable insights that would take years to acquire independently.
Key Takeaway: Be willing to invest in yourself and seek guidance from those who have already achieved what you aspire to accomplish. This strategic investment can save you time, prevent costly errors, and propel your growth.
5. Minute 51:30 - 53:00: The conversation concludes with a powerful reminder to take action on the insights gained. Koe encourages listeners to extract key takeaways, distill the information, and start creating. He emphasizes that simply listening to the conversation without applying the knowledge is equivalent to wasting time.
Key Takeaway: Knowledge without action is meaningless. Commit to taking at least one concrete step based on the insights you've gained from the conversation.
Hopefully this will help you get a solid understanding of Koe and Bush’s Core Principles: Start Creating, be unique, document your journey, and take action.
One biggest thing taken away... One person businesses can Bea huge success.
Definitely enjoyed it.
Writing on LinkedIn is the next thing I need to conquer
Mountain Valley. I'm inspired to see you gents doing so well at 26/27.
I'm 34 and finally starting my entrepreneurial journey. My 20s were a haze of drugs and booze, and I've got a 10 month old daughter that takes a lot of time (not resentful, just how it is).
I'm about to launch my first product that I had the knowledge to build for years but never realised until I found Dan.
If you feel like it's too late, it's not. These guys built their careers in a few short years of dedicated, targeted effort. You can do the same.
Wow, two awesome thinkers and creators. Thanks a lot guys. Will take some time to dig deep into this one.
I’m 61, don’t want to be a RUclipsr and still found this incredibly useful. FTR, when I grow up I want to be a musician (guitar)🤣
Mountain Valley 😂
Listened in one sitting, so much valuable insights. thank you
We are not weird! We just need to find our tribe!
Mountain Valley! Absolutely loved this episode. Would love to see more like this. Lots of value here.
Mountain Valley. It was nice spending Friday evening with you guys.
Dan, your LOA and Martin references took me back.
Looking forward to more of these.
Going to write my 10 takeaways.
Mountain Valley! Loved this conversation. So much great stuff to ponder. Thanks for taking the time.
Gonna watch this on my DMN walk, thank you all for taking the time to talk about stuff like this.
How did you guys become so wise at such a young age ? Mind blowing
Awareness/Accountability. Don't get comfortable in good habits. For example, I train 5-6 times a week, but am I just exercising or actually training? Am I maintaining or looking to get an edge? Did I check off this video for a false accomplishment, or am I going to actually apply it today?
Appreciate all the value you two!
You are making it more complicated than it is. If you workout 5-6 times a day, then you either do it because you are insecure and you think a nice body would get you chicks, or because you are a competitive body builder so which is it? Your flexing in your profile picture so you must want people to see your results.
Loved this… what I take from it is that my life experiences can really help other people. I just have to talk about it!
Mountain valley crew! This is one of the best pods I have listened to this year. Thanks dudes
Value packed! Thanks for the Collab Dan
The stop trying to be an expert is definitely a game changer for me. It's a question I've been battling myself because I would think what I if I evolve to something in the future that completely contradicts what I was preaching in the beginning and people are still following.
Hi Dan. I'm here. I don't know what to do with my life. Your videos help me reflect. I hope to find answers soon.
Whoa, Dickie Bush!? I did his Ship 30 for 30 🚢 around the Pandemic. Very educational and great community! 💛🙏
Mountain Valley lmao
3 Takeaways:
1. We’re all human and Dickie and Dan are just experimenting with what they love about life and then monetizing it to continue to create, build, progress, and grow.
2. Self-awareness is the highest level perspective for your life and must constantly be used to see if you’re going in the right direction.
3. Separation of tasks and limiting distractions breeds clarity and allows you to approach life with more power, input, and creative ability. Keep experimenting with morning, afternoon, and nighttime routines to see what works best for you using self awareness as the compass.
Thanks for sharing this value with us guys 🙏
Incredible interview..will watch and keep referring back to as a resource moving forward in execution . Thank you
Mountain Valley - came here through @Ali Abdaal
My takeaways:
- 1:25 creator system enables people to solve base problems in their life, which enables them to then start solving creative problems. AI and computers will help get more people to that point
- 1:27 creator economy will never be over-saturated because creators are constantly growing into different types of content
- 1:35 education system that matches students to teachers based on teaching style and/or personality type
- 3:15 you can build everything you want, but not everything, and not more than 3 at once
Mountain Valley - enjoyed the pod, took a lot of notes. Thanks for posting.
Mountain valley. Rearranged my home studio and you guys accompanied the whole thing. I love the framework of writing to your self two years ago. Cheers fellas
Amazing this is going to change my life and maybe I look back at this comment 5 years down the line that this is what changed my entire life path!
There is now high, there is no low, there's only one place to go and that's inside within your heart and to be just who you are.
So this is the 2nd time listening to this and I swear I heard a whole new conversation 😂😂
Mountain valley baby. Thank you for all the continued inspiration.
1:37:00 priceless timestamp for later
Mountain Vally. Love the long form and the interview of the people in the same game.
