7 Liberating Skills: - Logic - Statistics - Rhetoric - Research - Practical Psychology - Investment - Agency
Trivium, Quadrivium The 7 Liberal Arts
Don’t see any of these not being done by a.i better soon - logic and statistics goes without saying, but ChatGPT is already better in rhetorics then most people and if you feed a large language model enough data on psychology it will soon understand you better then you understand yourself etc
We human need to soon adapt to a new level of creativity, problem solving and skills
Statics?

Dan is the Man! Way out of your demographics Going on 61 Using your systems for my retirement plan. Wish I had people like you and the power of the internet when I was younger. Better late than never! Thanks for the Great education, very inspiring! On my way to a better life
Totally agree! 53 here and he is so inspiring and knowledgeable.
I completely agree! Just turned 60. Dan inspires and informs in a way that is empowering and revolutionary. My son and I watch all his videos and have gotten so much out of them. Fantastic stuff! It's tremendously invigorating to tune in to his message and his guidance. I think that older people should definitely tune in also. These are interesting times. The old must learn from the young.
So true. Never late ✌🏼
"We are conditioned to get good grades out of fear of punishment." "If you don't create a purpose, you will be assigned one." "The future proof skill stack: logic, statistics, rhetoric, research, practical psychology, investment, agency." "You don't find a profitable niche. You create one through persuasion." "30-60 minutes a day for 6 to 12 months puts you ahead of almost everyone." "You don't succeed by being smarter, you don't succeed by working harder. You succeed when you possess specific, domain relevant knowledge with a creative vessel for distribution".
Thanks for sharing
strange.. what was the punishment for bad grades you were scared of?
Epic.
This is cringe bro 😂 tf
Wrong. It is who you know.
Y'all better listen to this man. Dan knows what he is talking about. The educational system has been failing us for decades and now, in this new age we have the tools to change not only our future but the way our kids learn. Thanks Dan for being a pioneer, and bringing the truth to the forefront.
My only problem is what he's saying is too vague. (99% of KZheadrs who create self-improvement content are like that.) I would prefer real-life examples. It seems clear to me that he's pushing us to learn marketing skills... to become copywriters? We can't all become copywriters.
@@JaggedMercenary Don't know what's so difficult to understand. You find something people want but can only get from you and you get compensated. What that something is depend on you, it could be a new type of sponge for cleaning dishes, a new type of shoe or whatever. With how easy it is to start online businesses you can also delve into creating various types of art or software that you can then sell. Seems like you just want to be sat down and told step by step what to do, which won't give you the results you want.
Bro He's Literally copy pasting content.
@@JaggedMercenary If that's all you got out of this, you might wanna go back and watch a few more times
the information here is much better than any business classes I took in college. Practical, no BS fluff that gets the point across in a way that made the video feel great to watch, consume , and understand. Thank you for this high-quality product!
Hi! Exactly What my husband and I were talking about at dinner yesterday We have been created to be created. So we have to learn what our inner us is Thanks
Thanks for sharing your vision, thoughts, and advice! You are the real brand, and you inspire!
This idea of creating your own career is an important one! As the world of social media continues to expand and go into different areas, more and more folks are finding value in the things outside of their 9-5 and into their 5-9. However, few including myself play the long game. As someone that went the traditional path of going to school, getting a graduate degree, and getting a regular job, I am glad I did that since it let me have a roof over my head and allow me to explore different areas of the US. I only recently started making an interest to create my own career after finding videos like Dan's and exploring things on my own. Cheers!
Looks like working om the land might be a good idea, starting now. Farming has always been needed, to varying degrees. Learning new skills is always good too.
Absolutely
I agree with this 100%! I am learning and leveraging AI as an extra tool for my content creation. I wish everyone the best!! Salute Dan and everyone reading this!
I took my time to watch the video to the end before i commented because i have realized just like everyone i rush into the comment section discussing how good the video is without even having any idea of what the video entails. After watching this, i realized i need to put 30-60 min building my craft. Thanks for taking your time to give us advice
You would be surprised at how far you can come with just those 30-60 minutes! My other creative project grew tremendously because I worked on it a bunch every single day! Cheers!
@journal What's your craft?
@@letsdanceonhere Which Craft.
@@thelifewithnate I'm counting on it mannn. Thanks mate🌹
@@nathanielacton3768 it's not something difficult ooo it's video Editing. If I must say I am just too lazy.
Dan, I like when you said “your purpose is your goal” we put too much emphasis on finding our “purpose”…I currently have a good goal…it’s now my purpose. 👌🏻
Everyone's purpose is to help others, it depends on the uniqueness of the individual what the expression of that purpose is
@@shimblypibbins you simplified it all to the level that is meaningless to me. I'm not helping others if it's not beneficial to me. You could have just said that we all have goals which are our purpose
Goals or purpose. Even your North Star. Call it whatever you want, but are you clear on your destination? Is that so clear that that’s what you fight for everyday? Competition is fierce and so is living in the jungle. Welcome to the 21st century. To escape being a slave, regardless of the amount you make, if you can sustain a life you choose and support, help, build, or serve others, will allow a lifestyle of your choosing. If it’s not enough, be more to do more. And if you’re not here to help others in life, good luck making an amount suitable for a lifestyle that you choose. Nonetheless, have a North Star and assure you’re there to be of service. If not, do your thing and enjoy everything that comes with it.
Be careful because there's a trap to this line of thinking. Life is not work. Life is play. Just as you don't work the piano you play it and similarly one dancing along doesn't do so with a point A to B to C in mind. They simply move around the room and relish in the joy of the moment. This concept is as old as literature and is very well articulated in Buddhism, Taoism, Sanskrit and Stoicism. A recipe for misery is to set goals for the sake of purpose. Rather goals come from your purpose. Setting goals for purpose will accelerate how you experience time passing and once your goal is achieved. After the sensation of satisfaction you will feel exactly how you felt before the goal outlined. Another pitfall is the nature of the goal. Use the SMART principal to avoid creating unclear/unobtainable goals.
Good morning bro! I look forward to this every Sunday
It’s been a while, Dan! You have no idea how much time I spend dissecting your videos, turning small packets of knowledge into mindset shifts. Thanks man. The MM community has also been helping tremendously.
Today I work on a computer all day. I used to work around construction sites and have built and fixed things by hand, working with wood and consider myself mechanically inclined. People underestimate the usefulness of manual labor skills. Always maintain survival skills.
Bring some light for the path of a fellow handyman. I'm good with computers to buy couldn't find my way yet. Any advice?
Mechanical skills are more worth than 90% of office jobs.
Seems like you’re trying to attack his character imo
People really underestimate manual labor. These days, it seems necessary to learn some.
Especially plumbing $KILL$. That’s one profession that will never be replaced by AI or robots!!
Thank you Dan. You are a legend.
This channel is a force for good and freedom.
The way you communicate deep subjects in a digestible way is just one face of your genius Dan. Thank you.
“People aren’t showing up to their life as a practice.” 👏 So many truths in one video. Thanks for sharing.
Always creating easy frameworks for us. Nice one Dan koe
What will absolutely be relevant in 20 years and MUST be taught to children: -Compassion -Resiliency -Creativity -How to Enjoy Work and Progress -Ethics -A Moral Compass -Curiousity -Health, Nutrition, and Strength
Creativity and curiosity are already there, just nurture them
Love this, Dan!
Out of so many videos and books, I've read about advancing yourself, this is the most clear and consice message I have found. Thank you for this!
Dan - the last couple of vids you wrote have taken my fear away! I love your book! Such an exciting time! Thank you!!
Thank you Dan for taking time to give us this priceless info!
So much value! Just like your other videos! A new big fan here! Thanks a lot and please keep it up Dan!
Love love love your book and still getting so much value with every new video you post too
Brilliant video. An eye opener.
A hugely insightful video as always Dan! The information in your videos is infinitely more valuable than anything taught in schools and for that I thank you. Your content has inspired me to start a channel of my own
Love yah dawg. Thanks for these gems 💎
Great information as always! Thanks Dan!
Amazing, terse and to the point. THANKS HEAPS Dan. Will definitely listen to your valuable lecture. 🎉😊
Dan mate, you help me & i help others, so its a win-win brother. Another great video, sending my regards from Australia :)
Thanks Dan!🙌
Amazing video Brother. You summarised this topic very well. Thank you
It’s not a question if there will be jobs. It’s about many don’t want to work for companies in the future. In the past it was all about being scared to not have a job. So many accepted poor treatment,whether from bosses/company culture or even colleagues. I think many will become their own boss. It will balance the scales. More respect
i super enjoyed this video...value as always, thank you
Creating your own custom career your own business and being your own boss is essentially what I did about 5 years ago, I returned back to uni at 50 and was on graduate programs and worked part time as I re skilled, two degrees later and placement I now run my own business and I am already creating a portal for an exit point and transition into expanding and moving forward. Support workers, Life coach and Counselling, community service officers. I the process of writing my own ebook.
How much money did those graduate degrees cost and what skills did you learn in them? What was your undergrad in?
I don't understand why you need a degree to be a support worker or councillor you're literally just helping with or listening to people problems and offering advice
Set a path to create your own goals or someone else will do that for you. I love it! You help me so much with opening my mind on how we should live instead of how were told to live
I keep learning. Thanks! 🌹
The man jumped into the rabbit hole! Welcome to being a dork bro. Some of us grew up with this. Remember the weird kid talking about complex ideas relating to the topic but y'all thought he was crazy? Welp, you're one of us now.
Thank you so much for your last newsletter !!!, today my 9 to 5 will be happier than ever...your invited for dinner at home whenever you´d like. :)
Thankyou for this information...
Wow, Great presentation, informative and to the point
This is good stuff 🤙🏼 thanks Dan!
Great insights on the importance of a future-proof skill stack. For entrepreneurs, combining niche data analysis skills with industry-specific knowledge can create a unique value proposition that's tough to replicate. Keep an eye on emerging tech trends to stay ahead of the curve.
I don't even know why i bother watching other youtubers you are literally answering my existential questions in each video
Very good sum up 😎 Satisfying video.
Good content Dan!
In the AI era, staying true to yourself could turn into the ultimate money-making skill
Yeah! Creating meaningful, genuine content that people can connect to is one of the few things AI cannot really do in the same way
Impractical advice
@@toaaltaimpractical for some
Incredible video, solid an truthful content-
It's taken me about 4 years to feel like a legitimate expert in my craft, and I'm about 6 months into creating something new to solve a problem that I don't think had been solved very well. So far, the over feedback I've gotten is this is truely valuable. Thanks for your videos and guidance... it's helped a ton.
Excellent video! Thank you! 30 mins a day to a skill or hobby! Let’s get it!
There was an extreme amount of value given to me through this video. Thank you
Just want to say thanks. I like how you think and take action on it by sharing your thoughts and observations! I am going to follow your advices. Feels good, keep up the good work. cheers,
I think you can help me a lot, so i just bought your book @ amazon. It will take 2 weeks to arrive, i havent bought a book in 2 years. I hope this will inspire you, as you inspire me. 🎉
Great video, I feel like watching it several more times. A lot of this aligns with me experience, any noteworthy achievements I accomplished came from self motivated practicing and the creativity that came out of it and the internet was a useful resource. That said, written tutorials seem to have come out of fashion, it's all edutainment videos now. I prefer a combination of the two formats.
This was a good watch lots of valuable info in here
Excellent video!! I feel fortunate that discovered Dan Koe two years ago.. he's sincere and clear.. fantastic creator
Time to learn crochet and scrapbooking then. I've been avoiding it
Literally just started learning crochet!!
@@drewperry2994 some day you will teach AI to do it and that will be the nail in the coffin for mankind
@@jamesriley5057That’s assuming we as a society never evolve and adapt. Well maybe the US will fall due to the government and greedy elites. However, that may not be the case for other countries.

So glad to hear him say this, I’m also an entrepreneur and I apply all these skillsets. Definitely has been a rough but rewarding journey.
On point. You are addressing everything that is wrong with today's educational system in a thought provoking and extremely precise way while in the same time providing great solutions. Brilliant.
Bravo Brother!!!! Incredible video! New sub here
Needed skills: Gardening / farming Hunting House building Energy systems Medical Etc.
at 06:17 voice volume changes, great video Dan as always
Thought provoking, Amazingly insightful. I don't know, what could have happened to made you realize such deep understanding. Honestly for me even to understand this fully and apply in my mindset & life, I'll need much time. Hats off man, and, Thank you very much, Sir. I'll strive to improve myself using your guidance.
I really admire how you can articulate your thoughts, I bet you are a writer :)
Bought your book. Makes sense what you say.
I've watched almost every video of yours Dan. Can you please elaborate and share more of the "how" as opposed to the "what" please? What books, courses, KZhead videos, etc do you recommend to learn the various future proof skills?
immense value
Awesome, and thank you. I'm at least on the journey, as an entrepreneur. There's hope yet.
Ah, I'm an wannapreneur myself! Take heed because it takes years without any upfront reward before things to start to pay off BUT the journey is well worth it when it comes to creating your own career.
tks brother. really valuable content.
This is a great video and you have some very interesting ideas! 👍
this man is a legend
One of your viewers pointed me towards this video! Anyone who enjoyed Devon's tweet, if you like scifi, you should check out his book Theft of Fire: Orbital Space #1. You're in for an absolute treat :)
❤❤❤ love the content on here
I enjoy listening to you, if I can acquire this type of knowledge because of f reading a book imma do just that...thank you for inspiring me
Martial Arts and commercial/investment Real Estate is a great foundation for children and young adults… over layer it with latest technology of the time. A blend of old and new.
This is a brilliant take on things as they are now and I am inspired by it. That being said it isn't taking into account the stated objective goals of the architects of what is occurring. There are very wealthy people for whom this renaissance, as you call it, is an opportunity for them to return things to the way they once were. This isn't me putting words in their mouth. They are very explicit about what they want for our future. Unfortunately one of those components is the complete loss of individuality and thereby self-mastery. It could easily be that in twenty years no one will be allowed to start anything. For example there is already a debate starting about whether people should be allowed to garden. I think we really need to understand that we cannot win by competing. This is a valid strategy for right now not twenty years from now. We can only win by asserting that society and civilization is exclusively for humans and demand that it serves humans, not the elite and their incorporated machines. The ancient Greeks told us that the goal of civilization is to cause poor men to work for wealthy men. That needs to be changed or we are all in serious trouble.
Amazing observations!
Man you arr genius and smart. Thanks infinitely. Your prezenz is infinitumly appreciated. ❤😊
People who know the value of this man .❤
Thank you 🙏
The beginning of thus video explains what people call the midlife crisis, but I define it as the lifelong crisis. Children start sensing it fairly young depending on the severity of their situations and what outlets and skills they learn to escape it. Most end up just looking for entertainment and escape rather than growing through or past it.
Hey mate, tashkartushkur for this and the 07 skills. I love them so much that I have made them my phone's background poster for a while to focus with them. By the way the book about focus is precise in ita cover design with the circles --- it is a sacred design ✨️ extremely well done ❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
I think of it as a great opportunity for all humans, and I love the idea of humans not having to do menial tasks and instead can focus on more creative tasks.
*science* : to read the world *mathematics* : to model *engineering* : to bend the world if science is x, mathematics is f and engineering is y then we have f(x)=y which in addition to being one of the most important functions is also the concept underlying these disciplines, the function (this way of starting from functions to create disciplines that create functions in turn is a very powerful concept because it allows abstractions of anything) add *economics* to this to make the whole thing sustainable and you have the 4 most important disciplines that you can learn and which generalize the concepts expressed in the video

Absolutely agree with regard to self-determination as opposed to being a wage slave and the role to be played by further education driven by personal interests. Also as technology progresses, IMO, it's crucial to recognize that there will always be those in power who seek to dominate others. Therefore, when we engage with emerging technology, it should be viewed as a tool to achieve our broader and self-defined goals, rather than simply learning the skills needed to facilitate others to achieve their goals.

Very good message.
Thanks, ... This is eye opening, guess i will just keep coding and developing games.
there are 2 types of jobs that can't be replaced by AI no matter how good it gets 1_ legally licensed jobs : Doctor , Lawyer , Pharmacist , Judge , and ironically maybe drivers and thats because as a society we need somone to legally punish when things go wrong or people die as a consequence of automation and the companies making the AI or the robots will not take responsabiltiy for obvious reasons. 2_ jobs where the customer would prefer a human even if the AI is better : care jobs , service jobs , entertainment .. etc , i really doubt that old people would accept robot carers over humans no matter how good they are . make sure you are able to do one of the jobs mentioned above when things go bad and you might not end up homeless , but hey , if entrepreneurship is working out for you then more power to you but not everyone is elon musk
LOVE Devon Erikson! Started following him on X after stumbling across his methodical takedown of communism.
omg!!!
Great great video!
I think we need to create a future where people are valued for the sentience and well being over whether or not they can contribute anything economically valuable. Say you got in a car accident that left you so brained damaged you couldn’t do any kind of work that earned money, would you still want other people to care about you and for you to have a way to have a good life. If ai really is going to become super intelligent or even directionally close, we need to not tie all of our value and in being able to do things it can’t better.
Dude don’t worry so much! Be happy. I grew up with a tribe of people , they didn’t worry about money, material goods, being the next billionaire. Community and the most important commodity in life “time” = happiness. If all your chasing is results then be very afraid because Ai can and will do it better than you but results doesn’t equal happiness.
Great video
preciate you dan
