I have seen many of your starter stories and hands down, to this day, this one is the best one....soon I will be changing my toxic environment, and hopefully following your lead, following my passion....thank you
I've just arrived here by parachute.S I'm Brazilian, I'm in my mid-30s, I graduated in electrical engineering last year and I'm stuck in a job that supports me... which I hate. I've changed environments a few times, and each time I could feel that I'd made some progress. But I'm tired! Tired of being underpaid! Tired of Mondays! Tired of not having the quality of life and freedom to have children without worrying about whether I'll be able to afford it. This video changed my mind, brought me a little light. Thank you for the videos. Thank you for sharing your story. I hope I can do something with this light you've brought upon me.
Hey Janderson! I'm from the U.S. but I speak Portuguese, random comment but I saw you translated "estou de paraquedas" to English. In English - it's not super common to say that but instead, you could say "I just stumbled across your channel" Wishing you the best and hope you find work you love! 🙏
@@Lusomad_alli Thank you so much! I'll try to remember that tip. I didn’t really think much about the 'arrived here by parachute' ("Caí de paraquedas", in portuguese) expression because it’s used a lot here in Brazil. Thanks again! ☺
Another great video! I’ve been following since you started and the growth is incredible to watch. You reached out to me 11/2019 to feature me on the blog at the time and I could kick myself for not writing it up. Going through a tough time at the time and it got out in the back burner. But I stayed following ever since. Keep up the great work!
I needed this today. I was born an entrepreneur. I’ve had many businesses - failed ones and semi successful ones. And right now I’m drowning after a legal battle with a co-founder. And it’s time to go all in on one of my businesses that intersects with my passion and that has been gaining traction organically over the years. Thank you - really.
Dude... your videos have been my morning inspiration in 2024. Super happy for you! 🙌 What really struck a chord with me is "becoming a new person". Identity triumphs motivation. Thanks for reminding us all.
What a nice video I just came across it rn lying on the couch questioning whether the 160 days I have been on my grind are worth it. You have reignited the flame. You got a new sub and much love from Kenya🍒
Amazing story! I'm 10 months into restarting my life now. It's obvious you quit drinking too. You look healthier now compared to older clips of yourself.
The first minute and a half... I relate to that so much that I watched the whole video 10 times. The manifesto thing is quite powerful. Thank you for this video, it moved me deeply and I started yesterday to give my dream a shot. Let's see where I end up by the end of 2025!
Man you're so inspirational. Funny enough I bought Think and Grow Rich like 5 months ago. It's just sitting on my desk, haven't even read a page yet lol. Right now after I saw that part of the video, I just looked at my own copy and man it feels like I'm at that point in my life like you were at the airport. Thanks for sharing your story Pat!
I’m an 18 year old from Nigeria who decided to go solo the moment I discovered Marc Lou and your channel. I did, and my first saas is currently at $40mrr for the first month(that’s this month). Seeing this video is the drive I didn’t know I need to keep on building
Wow, from 3:05 to 4:05, that was one of the most enlightening minutes of video I’ve ever watched, that was a huge revelation for me, as I realized I suffer from the exact same thing… thank you for that! 🙏
I love this video, and your story is pretty similar to mine. I am not quite where you are yet since I can’t go full time, but I am getting there, working my dream every day with a full time job, family and two wonderful kids.
I have gifted every graduating High School student in my life two books, Think and Grow Rich (Napoleon Hill) and How to Win Friends and Influence People (Dale Carnegie). They were game-changers for me. Great video
So your answer to "what kind of business should I start?" is to run a business that sells course working throw the question "what kind of business should I start?", got it. (It's funny, because it does not make sense, but somehow it also does make sense)
Agreed. Also, it's waaaaaay harder to go viral or get any kind of eyes on your content than just putting in 2 months of energy from Starbucks and then "magically" going viral on Reddit.
You missed the point completely... the point is we all have problems in life. He took one of his and created the thing that would've helped him the most. He's helping people who can relate to his own problem. The kind of business/brand you should start is something you are passionate about that helps solve a problem for your kind of people. You have to believe you can do something bigger, accept that with success comes failures, and learn how to control yourself. Do that by realizing what your burning desire is, put a strong why and how behind it, and get to work building the thing. Hope this helps anyone who's looking to make that change🫶
Try looking for the opportunity and potential in things, instead of the problems or flaws. You'll go further. I suggest you watch it a second time, but this time only focus on the gold.
ironically I picked up that book about 2 weeks ago. From the concepts taught, and following them to heart, writing out my plan, and believing in myself, I've seen more progress in these last 2 weeks than the last yea
So glad I found this when I did. Glad it was only a month old as well. I’m gonna buckle down and payoff as much debt as possible this coming year to become as debt free as I can to be able to live life anew….. you got a new sub halfway through the video. Excited to see where this takes us
I am feeling that my life needs to change. I have the skill; even sometimes I help my friends build their ideas, but for me, there is nothing in my mind, my mind pushing me to do something, do that, do that, but man, I don't know where to start or what to start.
Very inspiration video! I followed the same path, college, a good paying career as a technical writer, marriages, kids, etc. Then one day, I realized i needed more. I started my own photo and video creative business in 2016. I ran my company as a side hustle until I saved enough money to pay all my bills for a year. Then, in December 2021, I quit my full time job and went all in with my company. I told myself that if I could not make it running my own company in one year, I would go back to work. Well, it is now the4 end of 2024 and I have not looked back. My company is still running with my youngest son as a full time employee. We are not wealthy, but we are both very happy doing what we love together everyday. I am now 50 years old. If I can do it, anyone can. Don't just follow your dreams, chase them! Necessity is the mother of all invention.
Actually, this video has been in the watch later section for 2 weeks, but I am sorry for that because it is worth watching and making changes in our lives. It was an amazing journey and an amazing video as well, I am happy that there is a guy who has shared his whole story just in one video like you. Thanks a lot. Good luck, I believe you deserve more...
July 22nd was my Day 1. Behind the scenes of my channel, I’ve been selling rocks and documenting the process. On Saturday, I had my best day ever with $958 in sales at a local market. For the first time ever, I look forward to the uncertainty and variance of my days! 🤘
The storytelling on this channel is fantastic! Good editing is so key to bringing out the unique angle in each story. I work in video editing, too, mostly with businesses who want to capture that same vibe. Awesome work!
So many people just need some inspiration to take that evolutionary step to change their lives for the better. All of the main points you hit on are the ones you gotta do or go through. (Speaking from personal experience). You may never know how many people you’ve inspired into action!
I’ve taken motivation from starterstory and microconf . I’ve been building a SAAS for last few months working on it a little everyday (managing working full time, with a wife and one year old) and will be releasing my first SAAS app soon. Thanks for the motivation brother.
This. Spoke. To. Me. 🩷. Thank you for this, I needed this. An incredible story, I had chills the whole video. The #1 thing I needed to hear-- "failure is success" and you need to give yourself permission to fail. I just wrote those things down a sticky note that I'm going to keep out so I see it every day and don't forget it. Thank you so much!
I've been a business owner for over ten years now. In many ways, I just created a job for myself and squeak by. Ive always been very creative though. About a year or so, I came up with a unique idea but never followed up besides documenting it. Now Im on a new journey. I came up eith a completely new product, Im prototyping it and talking with manufacturers. My mistake last time was not running with my idea. This time, I'm moving forward and wont stop til I succeed or fail. I think half the challenge with being creative is following through and moving forward. For me, listening to success stories of other people and hearing their struggles and how they overcame them gives me strength to keep putting one foot after the other. Thanks for putting this channel together and in turn, helping me with my journey.
This is so inspiring. Congratulations first for your development as a person and also entrepreneur. I'm moving back to the city again this march, hope we cros paths at the tennis courts so I can smash you and talk a little bit about life hahaha thabks buddy for the inspo xx
Congrats on the success. I’ve followed you and Starter Story from the early days, and inspired by what you’ve been able to achieve as a solopreneur. Looking forward to being featured on SS in the next 365 days.
The way you looked like an evil mastermind at 8:35 😆 Awesome video by the way, keep it up! I'm 20 and currently trying to kick-start my own indie mobile development brand from the rooftop stairs (literally), and this was definitely very inspirational. All the love from Morocco!
The problem with me is that I always get stuck or frozen when it is time to pick up from where I left off. You won’t be able to stick to a plan and continue it for two straight weeks; you will always have things to attend to or places to be. If you have a family, then you will have more distractions. I’m totally fine with it, but it’s so hard to pick up from where I left off after attending to those duties. I don’t know why I always feel like giving up at that point. I’m always questioning the process and having second thoughts. I don’t know why it happens. Sometimes, it takes me months to reset. It’s so frustrating to feel that way. :(
Life will always get in the way I think we’ve all experienced it but as long as we don’t sit in the same exact spot it’s a win “what you’re not changing your choosing” 1 percent is better then 0 percent I know we all will reach success and I’m starting my journey
I was in a toxic workplace with uneducated lazy and unmotivated people 2 years ago. Today I no longer work there even though I was moving up in that company and they weren’t (one of them actually got fired). I quit because it was bringing me down. I am now working with a successful entrepreneur, who previously opened a catering business, who also happens to be a good friend of mine, to open up a brand new coffee shop in the town we both live in. The coffee shop has a strong social media presence already.
Just subscribed. You have a very unique story my friend, keep sharing! I started out at many different Starbucks as well with the exact same book. That book changed my life for the better..
This is such an incredible and inspiring story. I'm a long time watcher and recent subscriber and just wanted to say that I'm super proud of you and thankful for you for sharing your own Starter Story! Super Cool!
Thanks men for his great Video... I think I am on the same point, as most of us: what to do, how to do it and a lot of selfdoubt. Videos like that releases a great portion of dopamine, thats results in a mindshift of focusing. I happily looking forward to Thursday 11pm Thanks you Pat
This is so sick dude. Your storytelling style is enthralling while remaining relatable and down to earth. Love your channel and your vibe. Hope you have an incredible day!!
Great story and very inspirational video! I live so far away from you (in the Balkans), but my daily routine is the same - job Monday till Friday, drinking at the weekends, watching football (soccer) on Sundays… and asking myself the same questions… wonder when my Day 1 will come…
i agree with everything except for passion. This is my opinion but from books i’ve read (Ego is the enemy and more). Instead of finding some you’re passionate about, look for something that is purposeful. Find your purpose, chase that purpose and build a business around it. Having purpose is the ultimate motivational and disciplinary measure to achieve your goals. If your dreams and goals align with your purpose, nothing can stop you until you achieve this.
Hi there, been watching all your videos. Your videos are amazingly inspiring to me. Thank you so much Gemma Flor for introducing me to this inspirational content.
This video gave me inspiration to go back to the drawing board on what I want to build. I have been recently trying to branch into consulting/free lance work in an effort to quit my job, but am realizing that that may not be the right reason. I am going back to the drawing board and asking myself "what can I contribute, what can I create?"
I love your book at the end too, my daughter used to those cute as cutouts when she was younger, absolutely love this whole video, congratulations a on a well thought out gorgeous design and youre so happy ❤ well done Milo 🎉😊
How this story touched my soul and my heart. It has an amazing story flow, and it describes me right now I feel more boosted to go forward on my dreams and my own journey
You’ve had the courage to identify what truly matters in your life, and your content is undeniably inspiring and authentic. However, you don’t need to sacrifice your social life in the process. With 8 to 12 hours dedicated to work each day, isolating yourself might feel manageable for a month or two, but there’s no reason to cut yourself off from the deeply human experience of connection. Balance is key-embracing both your passions and your relationships can enrich your journey even further.
I’d recommend the book “Do What You Are” by Paul D. Tieger and Barbara Barron. But also remember you’re not tied to one career, what may be a good fit now may not be 10-15 years from now, shifts in passions happen. Best wishes to you!
I am pretty much on the same path as you did, being a software engineer is really a golden handcuff that’s too good to wear. However, I had decided to craft out a different life and I am starting my own email newsletter and personal brand! Let’s keep up together
Lots of cool comments noting this video format being really high quality and storytelling is great. Some nice opportunities to have a Starter Story hat here - Like Press Publish Hat from Colin & Samir
First of all, isn't that the Tampa Airport? Nice to see a fellow Floridian on the platform. What to say, every time I watch a video like this I lose confidence in my videos. The level is so high and I don't know who edited but it was awesome! Do you do everything by yourself?
I have seen many of your starter stories and hands down, to this day, this one is the best one....soon I will be changing my toxic environment, and hopefully following your lead, following my passion....thank you
You can do it man!
Soon will be never with that attitude, begin today cause you only have today

I had already decided that tomorrow was going to be my day 1. Crazy how some vidoes always seem to come along at exactly the right time.
Hey man! I hope you kept your word and started, how far have you come until now if you feel like sharing ?

Today I no longer work there even though I was moving up in that company and they weren’t (one of them actually got fired). I quit because it was bringing me down.

This is an amazingly well made video. I was inspired and motivated by it. Also, you absolutely nailed the ending. Great work.

Discipline and consistency is all you need
How this story touched my soul and my heart. It has an amazing story flow, and it describes me right now I feel more boosted to go forward on my dreams and my own journey
Inspirational! Well done.
Hey! Nothing wrong with 12 hours of football. 😉 Glad you found your spot in this world 👍
That book changed my life as well!
just wow, amazing work!
Love seeing you having fun doing these videos!
Keep up the great content and keep on staying positive
You almost made me cry
You’ve had the courage to identify what truly matters in your life, and your content is undeniably inspiring and authentic. However, you don’t need to sacrifice your social life in the process. With 8 to 12 hours dedicated to work each day, isolating yourself might feel manageable for a month or two, but there’s no reason to cut yourself off from the deeply human experience of connection. Balance is key-embracing both your passions and your relationships can enrich your journey even further.
Great video and inspiring. I’m doing this now and I wish you well for the future you deserve it!!! 🎉
Thank you for the video. It does help motivate one to clarify the goal, start thinking more optimistically and make new productive habits.
It's truly inspiring and greatly appreciated
Thank you for my tears ... I'm so afraid of talking in front of the camera, must get over this incredible high wall.
Awesome.... it's almost as if you told my story. I can relate.
A BIG THANKS TO YOU FOR THIS. REALLY HELPFUL!
All I can say is well done👏🎬

Failure is success.
Thats it. Thats the quote. ❤
Loved this! Excited to follow along
I'm still 19 zoomer no jobs no strong skills whatsoever and then find this Video. Gonna keep moving forward 😢
Hi, I’m 14 and I just want you to know that you can do it. Try to acquire some skills and find out what you would like to do in life. ❤
I’d recommend the book “Do What You Are” by Paul D. Tieger and Barbara Barron. But also remember you’re not tied to one career, what may be a good fit now may not be 10-15 years from now, shifts in passions happen. Best wishes to you!
Yessir! Love the content bro. Just subbed. We have a similar story, & this inspired me even MORE to tell it. Much loveeeee
wow thats motivated me thankyou brother 😃🙌🏻
Next level storytelling!!
Truly inspiring! Thanks for sharing
What a beautiful story!
I am pretty much on the same path as you did, being a software engineer is really a golden handcuff that’s too good to wear. However, I had decided to craft out a different life and I am starting my own email newsletter and personal brand! Let’s keep up together
Lots of cool comments noting this video format being really high quality and storytelling is great.
Some nice opportunities to have a Starter Story hat here - Like Press Publish Hat from Colin & Samir
First of all, isn't that the Tampa Airport? Nice to see a fellow Floridian on the platform. What to say, every time I watch a video like this I lose confidence in my videos. The level is so high and I don't know who edited but it was awesome! Do you do everything by yourself?
