Took some serious balls to turn down that capitulation job offer -- right at the brink. I'm still in awe of how close you got to throwing in the towel, and how it made so much sense to call it quits at that point, and how you waited until the 59th second of the 59th minute of the 11th hour to say -- "no!" Really inspiring, and I'm glad it worked out for you. I feel like I need to sign up for your 20 tracks in 20 days package just to show respect for your bravery.

When life has something bigger to offer you it I’ll start to break you down to your last breath but the one who has the guts to keep moving will definitely achieve success and I GUARANTEE YOU!!!

We can see it from this video as a great example

I’m crying listening to your story. There so many of us that know the financial struggle too well, and to hear how you rose about it is inspiring. ❤

I am 25 years old and have known I have wanted to do music and music production since I was 14 but never had the courage to say anything to anyone or take any action. I am now learning how to use ableton making songs, learning guitar and drums and have been singing more. I also work in IT 9-5 so your story has really inspired me to start grinding. Thank you.

I am you in 2018.
I was touched by your story and I wish you all the success in the world, but may you always be here to produce with us!
Hugs from Brazil!

Very inspiring story.
I graduated 2 years ago as a software engineer, can't find a job till this day as a junior developer, now pursuing a tech job in IT and my dream at all is to become a professional music producer.
You help me a lot with your tutorials and live streams. 🙏

Your story is truly inspiring. Especially the fact that you turned down your job offer at a point you were drowning in debt, shows your level of determination. It's great to know you're doing so well now. Keep spreading the love and inspiration :)

I'm an IT with the same goal.. That story man..! Such an inspiration! The hard work paid off!

[chyrek.ambient]

Nobody can understand the pain and fear you go through ALONE but you pulled through and with the determination and some luck on your side you managed to get to where you are. Congratulations and keep going.

Respect to everyone who work their asses of and don’t give up.

Great story. I am currently in the full time salary + benefits tech job stage, and also married (so have to balance time for a healthy relationship). One thing I will say is while my full time job isn't the dream, it is providing me stability to slowly build my home studio setup. I've been able to pay off all my software, buy most the synths and plugins I want, upgrade and rebuild my PC to be more powerful, etc.

Every time I'm feeling defeated, I do look at my setup and see how far I've come over the past 10 years and realize, I'm invested into it. It's going to always be there. I just have to keep putting in the 10, 000 hours to master the craft, and most importantly, finish content.

A key part of your story is putting stuff out; whether it succeeds or fails. At the end of the day, released is better than unfinished and dormant on the hard drive. Hats off to you for never giving up and putting yourself out there. Valuable lessons for every producer. Hard work, consistency, and goal-oriented tasks that prevent you from endlessly tweaking just one more knob/fader.

Jules you are really my biggest inspiration in music production. As a university student who study math, which seems to have no direct correlation with music, I’m feeling quite depressed. However, I went through your previous video about yourself, I found that you are actually facing much more pressure than me, but you still accomplished the goal through your courage and efforts. I’m so impressed by this. Also, I learned almost 100% of my deep & progressive production techniques from your video, PML course, your project and now I have purchased your Project 20, to dive deeper. I believe one day I could jump out of the routine of my life, let what I love become my income. Your story continues to shine as a guiding star for me and your knowledge are helping me grow. I can’t thank more for this. Thank you BTD😊❤

In addition to being inspired to not give up on my dreams, I am bookmarking this inspiring video to share with my high school students. This is part of life's challenges-not taught to young people. Thank you.

I literally felt in tears with this video. Amazing to see the evolution of your dream and how your courage made it all happen. I feel the same all the time. I'm on a 9 to 6 job that drains my energy (thinking every single day about quiting it), graduated on something i don't even like and dreaming about how would it be to get into the industry and live only by my music and art. I have more than 200 tracks and been doing it since 2017 as a hobby but things will change. I will be releasing my first track on 24th Feb, start making some content on social media and sharing my art. I am going to WIN and you will make part of it as a inspiration ! Thank you for sharing this, it's giving us enery to keep moving forward !

Peace and keep the good work <3
