    This was such an excellent exchange of ideas to watch. It's refreshing to see inspiring people be inspired by each other. It didn't feel like I was watching an interview, it felt more like I was eavesdropping on an open conversation 🔥 Thank you for this!

    @soundisamajorpassion Před 6 měsíci

    very interesting right at the beginning as they speak about confidence and identity. For me, building an CZcams channel has been helping me a lot to build that confidence as I experience the ups and the downs and what happens when you really speak up and create the stuff you believe in

    DAMNNNN. When Samir talked about Scarcity/Survival "me" not being willing to know "Abundance" me yet. That hit.

  • @OvernightClearings
    @OvernightClearings Před 4 měsíci

    This is one of the "most" inspiring exchange of ideas interview, we have ever seen in so many years of consistently following podcasts and interviews. There has been an era of watching Ali, then an era of watching Colin Samir...and that all was perhaps to come to THIS interview and take so much value from it - honestly seen in 3 parts over a period of week/10 days, it just stayed open in the window, till the end was finished off today. All that binge watch of these individuals was to find value in THIS content. Thank you Ali, Samir, Colin for such honesty, fun, light heartedness, deep-deep dive, vulnerability and exchange of ideas. Much Regards, A channel inspired by you guys ! Cheers.

    @KevinKolbe Před 8 měsíci +6

    Wow, WOw, WOW!!! (Wanted to make sure you got the point!). Been a big fan of Colin and Samir for some time but never really heard their story from them. What a fantastic "Deep Dive" interview. And what a fantastic interviewer you are. Seriously. It takes experience to sit back and actually listen, let the room breathe, and ask questions. Solid all the way around. Thank you for sharing!

  • @TheEpicChecklist
    @TheEpicChecklist Před 6 měsíci +1

    Great questions, great guests, great content. Only bit of feedback is audio quality wasn’t great, lots of soft banging throughout, nearly enough to make me switch off. Hopefully something that’ll change in the future 👍

    I watched this video when it came out at the start of my CZcams journey at 46 Subscribers and having come back to it now that I've just hit monetisation I have to say the discussion around formats & format fomo has resonated a lot and i'm extremely grateful to you three for sharing your insights and struggles with creativity versus productivity.

  • @Keisha2024
    @Keisha2024 Před 6 měsíci +1

    I hate when CZcamsrs don’t want to reveal how much they make 😂 we know you make a lot of money, just spit it out because that inspires a lot of people!

  • @joshbottz
    @joshbottz Před 8 měsíci +8

    So much respect for these guys. They’ve been through it. Whenever I get thoughts of like ‘man, YT is hard, 6 years and still struggling to get views’, I just think about Colin and Samir sticking it out and persevering despite constant failure.

  • @RetroBreak
    @RetroBreak Před 8 měsíci +2

    Great conversation. For the daily productivity newsletter talk, the idea of a text, or maybe even a twitter page that you could post to every day, sounds more likely for me to read it every day than an email, usually with emails I see new ones and if it's not something to me directly I'll just swipe to delete it, but a tweet or text I would read all the way through.. Also like the idea of an Ali Abdaal productivity app!

    I like Mr. Beast when he discusses CZcams because he isn’t self absorbed, he tell the viewers good tips to help, and get to the point. This interview was dragging and too focused on themselves instead of giving a lot of advice, it’s like they are trying to gatekeep. I don’t to watch an interview for hour’s hearing all these Amazing things you done, give us what we want to hear! 🙄

    Personally, at this time I'm putting all my eggs into the CZcams basket. I know long term it's going to be best to expand to other platforms but with the way time needs and deserves to be spend in other ways I really only have the time, energy and focus for one platform.

    Feels like you (Colin and Samir) talk with Jimmy a lot but never learn. Editing doesn't have to be the one thing you enjoy doing. Jimmy himself said that he doesn't want to do it because he doesn't like it. You can find many things that will motivate you to do videos and enjoy the process.
