Hey Alex, thanks for letting us in on your journey. Inspiring.

I found your channel during the pandemic. At the time I worked for Microsoft and was terrified about having to present through Teams to 100+ colleagues; executives and other leaders. Your channel helped me so much! I did that! It was crazy! Thank you so much! Your channel brings so much value! I love it ❤❤❤❤😂❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉

Thank you, Erin. I'm wishing you the best with your channel and journey.

Just watched this video for the second time. In the beginning of this video you were talking about how to reach your students ... This is part of what I was thinking about when I said previously that this was perfect timing. I'm a truck driver long haul and I am gone all week and sometimes longer. I want to talk to them about different things that I learned, but I want them to listen and hear it without putting them on the spot and this is where your teaching comes into play. I've realized that sometimes when I talk to one of them at times I'm rehearsing My thoughts to them and I go over it a few times by then I guess I wear them out. Using what I learn from you is helping me with organizing my thoughts and say what I really want to say. This gives them opportunity to watch when they want and they don't have go through the grueling work of just sitting there until I finish. Thanks again coach

LOVE that this channel is used to sponsor kids from Compassion! I used to sponsor a girl until she moved out from the village. Keep up the great work!

Congratulations Coach Alex! I appreciate you and your videos - and was wonderful to see the children that have been supported through Compassion Int. 🙏🏼

Wow! 500K subs. That's incredible Alex! But very well deserved.

Obviously, you also have expertise in the KZread journey which is also an expertise that people love to absorb. I like the idea of you sprinkling in other areas of expertise. Keep it up.

To DISCLOSE (and possibly overshare), I followed the link to Amazon, but my account has been locked due to suspicious activity. The last thing I recall ordering there, is a children’s book a few years ago, so maybe the account was hacked. I just went ahead and checked if it was possible to order it in Sweden, which seemed like an easier solution at the time.

@@alexanderlyon ah sometimes people forget their reaction particularly when it had been negative as it doesn't match ego they think they should be or want to be. Selective memory in some sort? I find it hard to forget others negative reactions as well as my own. But l am learning to remeber and focus more on the positives and learn to forgive. It is easier to forgive when we feel able to speak our minds... Which I find hard to do. It is so cool to know you are a teacher to real students... And ended up with so many subscribers! I hope your book is doing well and l must watch more videos, l subscribed ages ago but somehow KZread doesnt often offer them to me, maybe I haven't clicked on the bell, l must have a look as they are very useful and interesting.
