The #1 productivity 'hack' for me is focusing on high-leverage activities in high-energy periods. Track in which hours you have most energy for a week. Then identify the high-leverage activities. Do those activities in those high-energy periods. This is the only way of 'working smarter' that actually worked for me. It has drastically improved how much meaningful work I get done.

Dan often makes the analogy to the Gym, now I do: Use High Energy Days to increase the weight more than usual. It would be a waste of energy not do that
Life is like going to the gym. When it’s time to go, resistance reminds you how heavy the weights are. When you’re finishing the set, determination reminds you that you CAN do this.
Hey Dan, Man, I've been deep-diving into your content lately. Spent a good 3+ hours on your tweets alone and countless more on your KZread channel. It's been a wild ride, and I've got to say, you've been like a guiding star for me. I am so grateful for finding you out! I've been wrestling with this whole "niche" thing for ages, almost burnt myself out over it. But your content? It's like you were speaking directly to me. It hit me - I've been the niche I've been searching for all along. You just made it so clear to me. Big thanks for all the value you're putting out there. You have motivated me to put out my first pieces on Twitter.

Nervous to take on more because I’m worried about the responsibility it comes with to help with their marketing. Damn this video hits me deep

I am not your normal audience being almost 60 and on my 8th year living off grid. It is a completely different lifestyle but it challenges me everyday. I see people driving to a off grid location and parking a RV and they never build anything because they have a roof over their head. I came here and lived in a tent until my place was built. Sleeping under an open tent where rattlesnakes and the weather have access is a huge motivation.

Guess it's an insane boost of freedom to get off grid. Only thing is - I guess it's where you have to say goodbye to many human connections that won't be able to communicate with the new you. It's solitude I guess. Yet, in today's ZOOM meeting society...maybe it's already solitude within the grid and just an imaginary togetherness...

I couldn't agree more. Taking charge of your life and putting in the hard work is the path to success. Having a portfolio manager like Mr. Samuel Peter Descovich is a game-changer. Their expertise and guidance can truly transform your financial journey. Making $35,000 in profits each month and saving 70% of that is quite impressive!They save you time and provide valuable insights that lead to impressive profits. Keep up the amazing work, and enjoy the fruits of your labor..
I agree, I did that when I was young: from Montreal, moved to Athens, then London, then Paris, then Rome , then Berlin...The moving gets you motivated and you learn really fast. I think it's good when you're a younger person. Before marriage. Now I live in Greece by the sea and am very comfortable and no longer want to move around. I love waking up and swimming in the sea and swim again around sunset. I run my coaching business online however.

Just realized I’ve put myself in “tactical stress” (there’s a name for it!) the last few days. I’m technically a “senior” but coming out of a long period of intense caretaking where I had to back burner my biz goals to the point of near collapse (financially and physically). So it’s definitely do or die and I’m reinventing myself and my approach to creating a biz as the niche (that was a huge relief-the “find your niche “ convo was keeping me stuck and frustrated for years!). And yes, the best, catapulting decisions of my life were scary and made me look reckless and crazy! Thank you for your refreshing “straight talk” approach. Your razor-sharp revelations put context to vague impressions I’ve gained and confirm I’m on the right track (which is the road less traveled by most)! Thanks for sharing your unique genius-a great inspiration!
I'm writing my first storybook, and I mean to purchase digital economics as soon as I can. I have other ideas that I'm working on, and I believe your systems will provide a lot of the necessary knowledge that I need to make these work. I've been watching your videos for a little over a year and was immediately enthralled with your thought process and how much sense you're making.
Every video you post it shows how much depth of thought you have gone through it..
This was a super relatable topic for some..dope video, pressure makes diamonds 💎
You said it Dan: stepping out of our comfort zones and learning from experiences can help us achieve remarkable results in life!
Love this Dan! ❤🎉. I can relate to others not understanding why I would choose the unknown verses the comfort that I was stuck in the 15 year career. I’m thankful to step forward and your channel really helps me reflect and act. Looking forward to reading “Focus”! Thank you
So good to hear this. I did this all last week 4am, 5am starts to get orders to customers. My family thought I was nuts! They were like ‘your supposed to do the work first before you advertise’ but I got through, got paid and feel great!
This was an awesome video. Keep up the rants. Love the spiritual element around your teachings starting. Feeling the most spiritually aligned since starting my own business was the last thing I expected. I’ve never thought of myself as a business owner until 7 months ago, when I finally broke through! I’ve been deep diving into your content for all this time and everything just makes soo much sense and I’m super excited! Starting a business is the only way in my opinion ☺️ thanks for being such a great support. & great smile 😊
Love your videos Dan. You motivate me to do better.
Thank you so much Dan. I am a new subscriber and I've been listening to your powerful messages daily. God bless you and this amazing wisdom you are sharing.. my spirit is becoming more free with the knowledge your dropping. So thank you, I'm grateful for you Dan Koe. Love and Blessings🤎🙏🏽
I completely agree with your concept on moving to help you “push yourself” … I honestly believe that you unlock certain gifts within yourself when you relocate to a place that matches up with your human leylines corresponding to your gene keys.
Wow! listening to your story of pushing yourself is like telling someone about my life. People don’t understand and always ask me why I force myself to change and get out of my comfort zone. I have changed career paths, I have moved country, I have changed my eating habits, I have isolated myself to do what feels right for me. People think I’m weird, I couldn’t imagine living a life considered average or normal. Learning and growing does not fit the ‘usual’ routine.

amazing rant Dan, thank you for sharing your mindset
I completely vibed with the “matte black so it’s on brand” and also with the bio hacker stuff. It just seems like so many things to add to the routine that you wonder how much of a boost it’s making. Eat healthy. Exercise. Get sunlight. Be around people. Seems easier to stick to the fundamentals.
I loved that rant. You have inspired me. Thank you.

Fantastic!! The part on regrets is to me more in the wisdom building category in my life journey. So it’s kind of entertaining when I get the question on what regrets do I have. I just stare I’ve been blessed with no regrets only wisdom moments. You have many outstanding points as always.
This hit me at a perfect time. I quit my job knowing I would feel scared and Shitty in order to motivate me to start my online business. I cried and I want the job back, I called myself stupid so many times. And on all levels it was stupid I could’ve started the business and kept my job. But the one thing that doesn’t make it stupid was my reason for it. So it leaves me no other option other than to WORK.

When the road looks difficult now I get pumped and more energised. Thanks from a big fan of 57

Just deferred this year in college to work on my personal brand. Thank you for this video.
YES This is exactly what I needed, I do love putting myself in uncomfortable situations, I've been feeling stuck because I haven't had big challenges. Ideally I would love to move just can't do that right now, I'm thinking of either getting a new job to get back on my grind. I've always been the ambitious type but this year has been different and I don't like it at all
Lots of good points made. I'm moving soon so good timing too. 😃 Will probably watch again as a reminder
Broo i effing love you!!!! The car thing is true, and youre making me want to buy the digital economics because i fell in love with self improvement, reading and learning. Now i just want a gt63s in black too lol.
I adore that you recommend jumping jobs every 6mnth-1yr. This is something I have done my whole life because I LOVE learning new things. That growth was all personal. Now I'm ready to expand more externally. Thanks for validating not just THIS, but so many things I've innately done that was considered "wrong" by those around me.
thanks for the videos Dan youre the best ! keep it up
I think this knowing everything around you after 6 months and feeling like you want to move really comes from a consumer mindset. If you'd have the same producer mindset in physical world as you have in digital you would start looking into how you can take part in society by for example volunteering and becoming a part of a community. OR if you bought a house you can start scape a garden and grow vegetables. you dont need change of location to push yourself out of your comfort zone and explore new terriroty
I love how much of a gamer Dan is, and incorporates gaming metaphors and terminology in his videos XD
