Is Dan Koe descending?

[The Caretaker]

Just curious what you think about another "marketing guru".

We had a discussion today about Alex Hormonzi, and for all his flaws, at least he gives a genuine orange energy. He is easy to follow and separate his teachings from the teacher.

Dan, on the other hand, has this weird air to him, Similar to Zuckerberg... Altogh I like his idea about writing and personal business, it became impossible to follow him anymore. Here is also an image with his recent content.

I used to like his content but it’s quite limited and too analytical. Now that he’s got his hands on AI he seems to have gone completely off the deep end with it. You can see it in his videos, it’s like he’s just transcribing an AI script. Too much. 
 

I also don’t agree with his view on having like 10 different skills and not reading books. Part of the joy of development is that it takes time, I enjoy the learning process

Why? Is it because of the Zuckerberg vibe or for some other reason?

@BlessedLion Based on your previous responses, it seems we are on a similar boat . Do you follow and self-dev YouTubers who you believe are still going strong?

His advice seems very autistic, and not in a good sense. If you watch more than 5 videos of his, he repeats himself like a billion times. It's cool to have people like that in a feed for some inspiration and alternative POV, but I can't follow his teaching seriously. So I unsubbed from his YT and newsletter, and kept only Twitter.

Is Dan Koedenscending? Haha, I apologize for the bad pun.

I've seen a few videos from him a while back, but he seems like a robot devoid of emotions. Didn't resonate with him at all, though some things he says definitely hold a kernel of truth.

@The Caretaker haha exactly. And honestly not really. These days I’m only consuming the classics, and highest wisdom. I listen to John Vervaeke, Ralston and Wilber along with other very high level spiritual and consciousness teachers. Most aren’t on YouTube but they have powerful audiobooks. YouTube is quite played out and even the popular men today on there are pretty scattered and not really taking you anywhere. 
 

There is also my personal YouTube channel, still in its baby stages, but I enjoy creating more than consuming. I get little to no value out of guys like Dan Koe, Alex Hormozi, Mark Manson, etc

Ngl, it was a good one .

 

@BlessedLion Maybe it's a good sign. You can't get stuck with the same teachers for your entire life, and God bless if even a few of them keep growing faster than you do.
