most of the youth is busy watching TikTok lol. But all it takes is that one person with a plan to change the world
I really needed to watch this video. I spent the past 4 years learning and building up some extremely valuable skills. Now I feel ready to make the leap and join something early stage and build it from 0 to 1. As someone going through the process of finding my next adventure, I find this series of videos extremely valuable and thought provoking. Thank you Garry!
This channel clicks for me. Everything about it. The mood, the vibe, the content and the whole purpose. Everthing!
Among all the channels of entrepreneurs, you are simply a breath of fresh air, simplicity, modesty and so much value. Thanks
"Be fanatical enough to keep going." Do what you're passionate about, makes life better long term.
Awesome video, Garry!
I can see both a sense gratification and fulfillment in the things you speak of. While you are learning and earning, you are also giving an unbelievable amount of value per your experience. I am only now beginning to open up my mind and grasp the potential of these concepts. I appreciate it and I know many others do as well. Thank you, Garry!!!
Hi Garry, may God Bless you for all these videos, Your content, production quality, the script, your camera, colour correction, the list won't end. I am on my own personal journey about being at a YC backed startup / CZcamsr and your videos are always a boost of eneergy and inspiration for me! Take care man
As somebody who genuinely loves learning and went down a finance/economics/investing rabbit hole last year and can't stop, this is channel is absolutely amazing! Keep it up :)
Thank you so much Garry for sharing your experience and wisdom. I stumbled upon your channel by accident and it's made my week. Needless to say I took notes as you spoke and got an inspiration to start up something. Thanks for being that catalyst.
This channel is a gold mine and people are ignoring it.
FOR REAL , FOR REAL
Your content is inspiring .
I love his content, and the heart behind it. He’s brilliant, humble, generous and kind hearted. I found this piece inspiring and informative.
You are great Garry! You deserve the success you have! Your simplicity is gold! I am learning lots with your channel! Thank you 🙏🏼
So glad I found this channel. It's so rare for bright young minds to share their thoughts. Appreciate you 🙏
Garry, your content just resonates with me immensely, you convey information that I wish I had from people in my life. Although, I believe you need nothing outside of yourself to become successful, as long as you align yourself, the information, the lessons they will come to you. Garry, you don't know this yet but you are basically my CEO coach right now, and you are apart of my journey. Thank you!
Garry, thanks so much for this channel.
I've been consuming stuff here over the last few weeks.
It's been great learning from you.
One of the main obstacles to my success has been dogma. Like Steve Jobs said, “Don’t live with the results of other people’s thinking.” It’s something I have had to fight constantly for by surrounding myself with like minded entrepreneurs. This channel is incredible, I can feel the Valley vibes already :).
One of the best content out there on the internet, and it’s free. Insightful, and well done. Appreciate very much Garry. You’re the best!
This reminds me of what Steve Jobs shared, “ Always hungry, always foolish” and to have that drive/obsession on what one believes for themselves, not moved by noises that don’t add values. Great content! 🙏🏽
Another fantastic video!!!!
fro knows photo in the house! You are the very first photographer i learned photography with through youtube. first video i watched was the Hermit the frog one years back!
As a 30 year public servant in New York City. I decided to take the Early retirement and start my own startup. Thank you for your content.
Wonderful!
Wow. That's great, Theresa! How are your plans going so far?
Good luck
Congrats and good luck.
Good luck!
Great stuff Gary - Inspiring. Also, that light/camera setup is 🔥
🙏🙏🙏 Jason and team are the best though
Great video Garry! I have found it very inspiring. Love the quote from Tim Cook : "my journey was unpredictable. My advice is to be prepared" it really resonates with the uncertain times we live today
I am Frontend Web Developer . I have been learning it for about 7 months and I have been applying for frontend jobs for a while now but I haven't been lucky. Taking Garry's advice I will continue learning and now I'll move on to the backend to become a full stack. Thanks for your advice Garry.
Tan, thank you so much for your videos. Your videos are truly inspiring to someone who has never had a consistent mentor that built something massive.
2:11-3:28 is the biggest gem of the whole video, once you understand that creating value (building) is far better than signaling value (credentials) opportunities are limitless. It's just a matter of getting started, no matter how small
Can't believe I just found this channel. Deeply appreciate the amount of great information you're sharing with us. Thanks!
Garry, I cannot tell you how happy I feel when I listen to your videos. Quite a value addition for listeners. I love how you breakdown concepts into good structures
Wow, thank you
One of my favorite vids yet. Sounds like I left my first startup a bit too late, but I did learn a LOT for most of it. Without that learning (and suffering) I don't think I would have been kicked in the butt the same way to start my own business that actually worked. You live, you learn!!
Thanks Garry for this thought-provoking video! Always eager to watch a new weekly video!
It's really a shame to find your youtube channel late in the game, but still thankful! Thank you for being awesome
I love everything about this channel. Thank you so much Garry! Your advice has been very insightful to me especially now that I'm starting out my career as a firmware engineer soon.
Gary, I love authenticity you demonstrate. Thanks for investing your time in creating highly valuable videos.
This channel is a goldmine. Thanks for all the insight you've shared on this video and others.

This is my fav CZcams Channel. Period.
This video changed my life; I'm learning and earning now doing what I love; thanks so much Gary!
I always enjoy listening to your stories, I'm currently a computer science student myself applying for Stanford next fall. You've been a big inspiration for me regarding start ups and life advice and I just wanted to thank you for that! :) the mentor I never knew I needed
Thank you for the videos Garry. The advices that you give are not only entrepreneurial, but life advices. Congrats!!!
Great life and business experiences! I wish I had seen this video 20 years ago. Many of the experiences you shared I can absolutely relate with except I was missing the earn + learn combination.
Thanks for the great stories and insights!
This video is absolutely priceless! A lot of these things felt intuitive to me, but hard to put into words. Thanks so much for this Garry
Thanks so much for your advices!
Garry first of all super quality content, inspiring!
I'd also like to add on the "Neither learning, nor earning" part, can happen to many founders/entrepreneurs too! (myself included). Especially when yes, your startup has an existing customer base, however growth is either slow or limited. Founders often can find themselves buried in non-stop routine work (customer service/ accounting/ marketing/ R&D, etc.) and often having a small team, you're stuck in the loop of not having time to learn better methods, as well as limited income growth.
Absolutely on point, as always Garry.. Your content is so relevant for most of us..In life's rat race where a lot of our lives are on autopilot, your thought provoking perspectives on steps to live life with a purpose are absolute gold dust.. Kudos man, keep up the amazing work 👍
learn and earn! You are getting better and better with the video Garry!
Hey Garry! Thanks so much for all the knowledge you’re sharing. Love learning something new in each of your videos! You’re awesome! 🤘
Thank you for reminding the most treasure thing we have is time and don’t wast it for anything which we didn’t learn or earn. Thanks!
Thank you for the learning @Garry. I am grateful for this reminder.
love the snippet videos you insert from other great leaders. It reinforces the message!
CZcams algorithm recommended your video to me abs I am so happy. I am watching all your videos with my daughter who is an aspiring engineer. While she has not decided her engineering stream yet, she is getting clarity with such videos. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
Super obsessed with your channel Garry! You’re a legend! Much love and God bless 🙏🏼
Thanks for watching

This is essential advice not just for people in their jobs, but for entrepreneurs as well. I think about the years NASA existed before their first successful launch. It's nearly impossible to tackle a problem while anticipating everything before going in. It takes a necessary amount of assessment, evaluation and reflection to solve life's hardest challenges. Anything worth doing is hard!
You are one of my super fav CZcamsrs Garry. TYSM
Thank you, Garry! I have been in a sad mood about my position for a long time. Previously I thought I lost interest in tech or felt too tired to be happy. I have tried all possible solutions I can think of to change that. Your video is a light for me to understand what I really like and want to do in the future. I LIKE CODING and I am just too tired of not learning!
Amazing and valuable content as always Garry!
It's the clarity in your thoughts and conviction in your voice that's inspiring. 🙏👏
Thank you again 🙂
Thanks for the video, I just start started learning visual programming some weeks back and I'm close to building something that might be of value with some hard work. Yes, learning always enriches one.
These videos have changed my life! Thank you Garry!
Do the work and instill self-discipline or persistently eat the frog is the best advice I ever internalized... cold-calling is the greatest teacher of this.
Worth watching again and again to stay on track
I'm grateful for your content.
You are changing many lives, many SV legends have a lot of knowledge to impart.
If find my self watching this over and over again
I am glad your channel is taking off. Well deserved
Gary, all the content / thoughts are so deep and genuine. Keep up the good work. Waiting for more of such content!

2 years ago this advice revalidated what I always wanted and changed my life... for 8 years I was watching, watching, watching and afraid to leave my coporate career...
I quit, start from scratch to learn code, asked my friends to join, now we are building company, we have lunched, and lunched again... and moving towards my goals one step at the time...
Thank you garry for this ❤❤❤❤
Good advice Garry. Thanks for sharing your story too. And also to be excellent in any endeavor, one need to take crazy risks that others don't wanna go and work your socks off mastering those skill.
Thank you very much, Grayy. I really liked your video and I felt like I was talking to my closest friend face to face, and that made your words very dear to my heart.

I've put a ton of important quotes and lessons on my whole sheet pad just straight out from this video and I have to say thank you for the wisdom that you're bringing! You're shedding the light for what seems to be the future of companies where they'll start from scratch as well. I am an aspiring startup founder too though I'm still a teen haha and knowing that it won't be easy, but your content brings so much impact to where I want to delegate my future moves.

Thanks for sharing your wisdom Gary. Loved it and keep motivating everyone.
Amazing content and production quality as always.
Great wake up call to those who are just running on a treadmill to nowhere!
I love it! The more you learn, the more you earn. Awesome video Garry, thanks!
This is GOLD! Thank you for sharing this!
This channel is a blessing. Thank you sir.
Amazing content, thank you for sharing!
Yes, have to learn all the time every year - especially, the way the world is trending with technology and how Internet marketing keeps changing. What you learn today will help you in the future, for sure, even if you don't currently see how it fits into the future puzzle... this is especially true w/ Internet marketing. Sometimes the learning process involves a lot of failures but the more failures you accrue over time - the closer you get to your ultimate goals. It can be a long, challenging process/path. Love the content. 👍
Always a breath of fresh air, Garry.
Hi Garry, your videos are really amazing and great inspirational. Your videos are answering to my questions which are there in mind for last couple of years. Please keep on posting. Thank you so much. 👌❤️
Great job Garry. This is priceless. All my love from Nigeria!

Thankyou so much Gary So insightful video keep it up !
Thank you Garry, this is great stuff. All this knowledge and positive vibes are such a gift!! God bless you :)
Thank you Garry. Excellent Insights! I am a fan of Paul graham’s essays. The Paul graham quote you shared is spot on for this content.
I agree 100%. As we move into the future I would also like to add you can either add to the algorithm/create value or be a consumer. Keep moving forward and give 100% of your soul to build and earn in this life to something you have a deep desire for. Remember nobody has life figured out, but what they do have is years of wisdom and personal experience that can help you along your journey. Peace and much love yal
This video is gonna be an eye opening for a lot.
