The scam point is so true especially for me as I started losing motivation after seeing the " only way to make money is to tell people how to make money" comment everywhere, I thought people were not actually getting successful by following the process but by making us fools. I thought there was no way I could reach there as I didn't have the resources they did, and this perspective limited my growth for a long but thanks to Dan I am back on track again.

International autodidact polymath- niche down adverse by nature- feeling much better about letting my interests/pursuits grow. develop and share the core tenants/results/earned insights. I love identifying the overlap, amplifying and of course, helping others. Creator here- always have been and know there is no other option. Stagnation is (a sad) death. Best, *A.

whats with the X in the background?

Love it Dan!

I can see it but am failing to take advantage of it. I am doing a 9-5 to save up for investment in my ability to escape, thoughts?

oh yeah, be freelance, fund yourself with hourly billing, change to fixed scope fixed price projects, delegate 90% of the work. done.

bro really giving life lessons on yt for free

Its all about communication skills

Absolutely, the shift towards a generalist approach in the creator economy is a fascinating evolution! Embracing diverse skills and interests not only enriches personal growth but also enhances adaptability in today’s rapidly changing digital landscape. 🌐

Dan Koe for president?? Lol I cannot believe you give us this stuff for free sometimes! Your book is also one of the best I've read in 15 years as an entrepreneur! About to be going on biz number three, and these concepts have me exiting the second one, not as a failure, but in a smart way. I let the first one dissolve into the second one, and your concepts also had me thinking differently about a better way to treat the actual business itself as an asset this second time around, so I can capitalize on all of its value. Glad to be in this renaissance at the same time as a brilliant mind like yours! 🙌

that's sound great thank dan koe

THANK YOU Dan. I feel like I was meant to find this video. I've been struggling my whole life with anxious thoughts that I'm too much of a jack of all trades, but master of none. Every time I get put onto a singular track like when I went to college majoring in Biology, and then Sociology, and then Environmental Studies, I always feel like I get boxed in and I can feel the immense weight of the opportunity cost crushing me more and more until I just lose interest and drift around to other things. I have a very diverse set of interests like traveling, fitness, e-Commerce, self-improvement, EDM, and politics, but never figured out how all of these connect. I've been told my whole life to just become a specialist in one thing, but I always got the feeling that the opportunity cost was too high and that there would always be someone who could outcompete me so I could never just focus on one thing. However, this video has given me a fresh perspective. You have no idea how much confidence this video has given me. 🙏

Hey Dan, you perspectives are really refreshing.

Haha well im gonna try to keep more natural, I'm older and know too much but lack the focus..

"Only slaves are expected to perform one task their entire life," Damn did I ever feel that.

Stay connected with other people in real time. 👍

Dan, this in itself is already a course. A total gem. Definitely a great use of my 30 minutes today. Thanks!!!

Yes, its as if God says: "what can you create?" (Perhaps "and share" goes along w it) And this seems more and more to be what society is asking of each other. The internet, a portal into and platform for these creations. Yes each of is has a unique lens, perspective, that gives the ability of unique creations. Just a matter of figuring out what you will create. Or maybe you already are, and just have to share. Could argue that perspective itself is a form of creation. I'm personally most drawn to the perspectives of others, to have a glimpse of life through their screen. This is a rabbit hole.

This is calling me out-in the best way.

I am a 10+ year Marketing "generalist" in the corporate environment. My most recent company closed and lost my job as a result. Now I am STRUGGLING to find a job for 6+ months as a generalist. Everyone wants a specialist. I am picking a niche now and mastering it.

A spiritual war of beliefs? You lost me there. Agree with much of this but it's also assuming someone is interesting enough to build an audience solely on themselves. And I would say that if you want to build a lifestyle business and free yourself from the 9-5, pick a service that you either know well, want to learn, and that is highly sought after.

So true, there are I believe 27 human tribes,who still live as hunters and in the wild. They only communicate with word of mouth.

Anyone tryna help me with this? I’ve been working on it stuck audience building for 3 years. I’ve made almost 200 podcasts and 600 vids uploaded

much needed!

28:31 caught me off guard LMFAO

And what about writing in the era of AI? Should we use it to support our writing process, or should we start without it to develop authentic writing?

Thanks for the Video Dan! The greatest blessing of our time is to be able to educate a dream audience of people at a very low cost compared to 50 years ago. Also serendipity and ability to connect with your most value like minded Creators. We should be greateful. However the digital noise and lack of workouts overwhelms people not to mention common creator starting common traps. For me the greatest challenge right now is to build my audience whilst not having a active income (suffering since 19+ months now) along with religious restriction of not earning thru Ads. But I have Faith Allaah Will guide me to halal ways, good HT clients and noble people to get thru this most challenging time of my life! So الحمدلله على كل حال

I just learned ILM uses the term "generalist". I've now taken that title for my bios. "Digital Media Generalist".

I feel like this video was legit made for me. 2 weeks ago I quit League of Legends I was a Katarina OTP, I was 2nd or 3rd best Katarina on the Server (Grandmaster rank) , 3 months ago I started streaming on twitch, I realized that there are people better than me and it would take so much time and effort to get there that it's not worth it, even though I always had the never give up mentality, I spent 9 years on and off while in school playing that game. Right now, I'm 19. Today I watched your 1m skill stack video, was thinking of watching a lot of tutorials on many skills but that would keep me away from failure because I wouldn't create my own brand and anything of my own (wouldn't practice those skills by doing.) Also, I've realized that all my life I've been very interested in Fitness, Psychology, Nutrition, Gaming, I find it interesting how similar it is to you. While playing a lot of league of legends and going to the gym, I somehow still managed to get really good grades in school especially in math. Even with good grades in school I still decided to not go the traditional route, I had some hope in League of Legends. I quit League because I wanted to pursue some kind of business, which seemed way more profitable with my confidence I generated by becoming exceptional at League. 10 days ago I started consuming copywriting content, have a goal of getting the skills to start working as a copywriter for businesses, so maybe I can finally get good source of income. Building a generalist brand would be something new for me, I feel like I don't have the skills for that yet, I'm delaying it for now. I'm a beginner copywriter haven't made any money yet, my skills need to get improved. I fear having this big goal similar to yours might not get me anywhere because I would get overwhelmed, it's too quick. I'm still working at a 9-5 job, in the future, if I succeed as a copywriter and improve my business knowledge, maybe I'll get there. But I need to reach failure in each skill, my problem is I'm trying to learn so much without actually doing and failing. I fear that I will get overwhelmed and get stuck, but reality will show me. I'm only 19 all the advice you give seems real. 👍

Another great video. Thanks for sharing, and being a living example of what you talk about... you are inspiring me on my journey to accept I have always been a renaissance man, and a generalist, and now, within the digital realm, I can find the success possible from my uniqueness.

Just different Strategies, Niche down is chasing, generalist is attracting

I became a enterprenour and I got trapped in a niche. It took me some years to move to next big things. Now I realize that I better to understand in a more variant fronts.

Recent masters of mental health counseling graduate here. My realization was: why would I work for $30 an hour at an institution when I can make $150 per hour building my own business?’ This translates to all working fields. It’s a no-brainer.

Dan Koe is my favorite parasocial relationship by far.

Your video gives some great perspective to think about and digest. Niche down until it hurts has never been a strategy that sat right with me. It just feels wrong, like wearing an ill-fitting suit. Ended up making a lot of notes. Thanks for sharing this.

This is worth those 5k- 10k coaching programs & way better, as it is up-to-date and accurate. Big kudos. Wow.

Don't you put out content in the niche of online business solopreneur? Is this because you started out as a generalist talking about many topics and you've niched down now that you have a large audience? Honest questions.

Fuck niching down....become hybrid

Man, why you look worse and worse? To better sleep, less drugs.

19:26 when you become a frequent listener of Dan, you will realize just how true this part is, and I am only beginning to experience it.

666K. Nice 🙂
