This is the nicest comment section I've ever had. Thank you guys so much for watching this video - I poured my heart and soul into it, and it means the world that you enjoyed it 💙

I'll do my very best to keep making awesome videos for you!

[dhadasbfgabfu]

The fact you went through HOURS of interviews, wrote probably THOUSANDS of words, and shared it to your audience is so crazy I would've figured most people would gatekeep this information but you openly share it to your community this will help so many up and coming creators too, Thank you and this video was truly amazing. ❤

[BodyFixExercises]

I think that's the first video I've ever watched for over 25 minutes from start to finish. Catch you when you hit a million subs Aprilynne

[spanishinput]

I have a 6 minute long talking head video with nothing but me talking, not even music, and yet it has 70% retention. When you're in the education niche retention doesn't have the same requirements as the entertainment niche.

[MickeyMullin]

Something I've heard time and time again is that you don't need to be a foremost expert in a field to provide value to someone else. When teaching, you simply need to be slightly ahead of them in your journey—in that case, you can actually provide *more* value, in many aspects, than a leading expert, because you are able to give them the smaller steps up that the guru is so far above he can no longer see them anymore.

Thank you for starting this channel and this series! I've seen these MrBeast clips a bunch of times, but I appreciate you categorizing them and curating them into digestible nuggets!

[RayMak]

Yes, he is extremely transparent and generous

Just discovered your channel yesterday and wow… the knowledge you have shows the passion and drive you have for this. Learned so much because of you!

[Wirasel]

You could've fooled me if you showed me this video and then you said you had 5 million subscribers, these are one of the best videos ive seen

[PablitoSroczynski]

This video is like a course in YouTube. Totally thought you have like minimum 100k subs. Appreciate the work you put into production. I watched whole video! 😮

[MostMorose]

You have a lovely speaking voice, great video btw

[robinpzander]

I really appreciate your authenticity in this video! You blend tactics we all can use with your own personal humility and
anecdotes seamlessly. I’ve watched most of the those interviews, and even so took away some tactics I’m eager to apply. Thanks!

[Trixo]

So so so underrated I thought this channel had 500k minimum how is your channel not getting millions of views you should get massive success

[AlexAmarMusic]

Thank you for the work you put in on this video! It was really helpful. Wishing you the best 😊

[PorshiaVonne]

This is one of the channels that gave me the courage to start my YouTube channel 9 months ago about self development. Now I have 1, 312  subs and > 1, 000 hours of watch time. I know it’s not comparable with others but I’m still proud I started because I’ve been learning so many lessons that I could haven’t learned without getting started in the 1st place.

[avior_trumpet]

I was so corius yesterday - because of the title.
I told myself to save it for later, but I forgot.
So.. Today I search it and it was so easy to find!
