Thanks so much for this Dorian. I'm currently in a huge career transition, from being a pastor for 24 years now into software development. It is an unsettling time for me with many uncertainties, so you video was a good reminder to focus on what is most important, being grateful, and being faithful at what is currently at hand.

Thank you for your vulnerability. ❤

Such an amazing an powerful message. People now a days don't slow down to really appreciate what we have and where we are in life. It's a battle I've been dealing with for a couple years now. Life is about balance and gratefulness. Thank you for your videos they are great and inspiring.

Thank you so much for being honest about your life. Your channel has REALLY helped me mentally and given me perspective.

Hey Dorian. I really appreciate that you stay authentic with your channel when youtube is often so clickbaity and generic. Thank you for keeping it transparent and real.

This was necessary to hear. Sometimes we don’t realize this a lot. Thanks for this bro🙏

damn bro you're a wise dude. This video really got to my heart thank you god bless you and your family

Really inspiring Dorian. I've hoped you would get where you are right now. Congratulations on reaching this stage in your life.

Honestly, this is probably your best video yet.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts with us Dorian. Really helps us out

Wow this is really well done man, thanks for sharing ❤

Thanks for these great thoughts you shared man

thank you Dorian.

I needed this video today.

Very well put, Dorian! You’re a great story teller in a way that makes your personal examples relatable even though they’re super different from what a viewer like me compares them to.

Thank you for this video I really needed it

You are awesome dude i love this new type of videos that you are making i can relate so much and you give me courage to keep going man thanks a lot...keep up your good work

Your content is wholesome and I can actually learn and understand things.

Really good reminder.

Thank you

Man your video about BJJ is motivating me to pratice this art thanks for your point about the all thing.

Great video man 😃 I like that line of thinking - the grass is greenest where you water it

Dear Dorian, just seeing your video notification amongst all the regular useless content on KZfaq gives me a lot of relief. I am a huge fan for your for a least 2 years now. Thanks a lot! Love from Egypt.

Excellent video my dude

Loving the new content !

I love your content, dorian. Right now, I'm doing basic computer support. I'm in a great job, and have been thinking of getting into something more challenging like programming, but more on the machine learning side of things. I like the reality checks you give cuz I find myself thinking "man, I'd be so much better off if I was in programming", but then I realize that can have its own issues. Goals are important, but I don't want to make it my obsession. Sometimes, I can neglect time with the wife if I can too caught up in machine learning projects.

We are often too quick to want the grass on the other side, sometimes it better to stop and work on making your grass greener.

yo Dorian, I am 19 in university and really find you an inspiring role model. and come every few days to check if you posted any new videos, keep being yourself and can't wait to grow up with you over the years through your videos.

Love your videos.

I enjoy this type of content as well. It helps. 😌

Always helpful and nudge me in the right direction 😊

so i recently quit my plumbing job because i wasn't happy and was only there because i was told it was easy and high pay, i recently turned 21 and waa working as a construction plumber for 8mo and wasn't happy because i just couldn't imagine doing this my whole life with kids and family, so a week after my birthday i quit and turned to into web dev, i always had a passion for computers and just online stuff since a kid so i made a big decision to quit my job and go to a web dev bootcamp and start from there but i start in 1 month so meanwhile i been studying myself by learning how to do little by little on youtube, i have no idea what im doing but i am learning this is all new to me but i enjoy it im from worcester, massachusetts. i would appreciate and open to all advice and tips you guys would have for me. 🙏🏽

Your content is sooooo awesome and relatable! And I've unsubscribed from nearly everyone. You create amazing stuff, which makes us reflect about life in general. Super helpful! Hats off to you man for keeping it real and being quite unique on KZfaq. (Please don't take this as pressure to make a certain type of content. Post when you like, what you like :) PS: Can't remember how I found your channel, but it wasn't cause of the coding videos.)

I have a literal GIG syndrome story. I used to envy my neighbour's lawn and one day as I drove home she was standing at the fence that divides our yards.. Seh wanted to talk to me about somethinh so I went over tontalk to her. For aome reason I looked over at my lawn and it was so beautiful. I was shocked. Feom then i stopped wishing my lawn was as beautiful as hers and it made me learn the lesson of appreciating what I have instead of wishing I had what others have.

Beautiful video ❤

Hi Dorian. I managed to start my IT journey last month with an internet support job. Now I'm studying for CCNA

Great video. Can you let me know where you get your b-roll? It's so amazing.

It depends, for those people stuck in abusive relationships or families, or without access to a job they deserve, or for countless other reasons, the grass truly is greener on the other side. Doesn't mean you don't have to keep watering it to keep it green.

Good stuff

I watch your channel during year. You one of the persons who inspiring me, and help with different aspects of life. It's always interesting to know your opinion, because it is not like others. Your channel giving mental energy to complete my dream. All our people have one dream, stop ʳussian invasion and get rid of occupants on homeland. In this time it's important to work, for make donation on army, humanitarian aid or just support ecomonics. Thanks, Dorian. I wait to watch your videos in peace

Nice video. Keep in mind though that the other side also faces its own unique set of challenges.

I too got a dumbass tattoo at 22. Great video!

1:40 Can you share your desk set up?

I like your jacket. Can you tell us where you bought it?

You can't beat yourself up for simply not knowing about these things earlier in life, one of the most insidious things about poverty, including "relative poverty" is the narrowing of horizons. One can grow up literally having no idea what a happy working life is where people value you for your enthusiasm and abilities and encourage your contribution.

if there is something we can all agree you are great is video making

It's funny. Living in Germany, I often think, "Life is shitty here" and that the USA is better. In the USA or elsewhere, you may dream of Europe. Software engineering is rarely a piece of cake. It's continuous learning until you retire, and if you have started late, you have to beat people with years of a headstart. It's not a bad profession, but do not expect it to be a dream job.

awesome video

I love these non-coding related contents ✌🏽

In Europe they don’t have modern sky scrapers

Now about this video, i think some times is valueble during the 20's do 20's things, becaue we just don't are mature yet. Taking my example, during my 20's i play a lot of video games, in fact i play video game since 8, now im taking my experience with games to be a game developer and taking my experience with no life balance to bring it up now in the 30's. Well i think we always learn.

Wish there was grass on other side of the moon n mars

Hey you're a strong person, big love from a fellow software developer 👊

Hello, I am from central Europe, life s**ks sometimes its totally ok, but i don't really think that let's say betterhelp will help you, at the and its all about you, as we say "fortune favors the prepared."

It is my sincere belief that embarking on a journey to India may ignite the path towards growth and unlock the profound meaning that you seek.

keep watering that grass bro

Isn't better help something not to use? Thought most people stopped promoting it? Anyone want to answer?

Everything takes time and patience. I know for me the grass is greener when the grass seed is healthy and taken care of. It’s that simple..

Ah dang, I guess it’s good I’m colorblind

How often do you play video games these days?

Yeah, have to focus on your pond and not on other frog's pond.

Keep making these realistic videos

S tier content

Of course the grass is sometimes greener on the other side.

How badly did you regret that tattoo when were the miller came out lol

I wish the world would slow down its become to fast paste

Watching this after dropping another girl that tried to get close with me. At least I can get back to coding lol.

Greener greener rubbish,don’t compare your self to other people, the journey matters not the destination, although sometimes the grass is greener on the other side of the fence.

Cancel culture has made things worse too. Like just dump the person you have for the one that looks newer and exciting.

R u johnny sins ?

What does it matter if you get rich. You're going to lose it all when you die. You are going to sacrifice decades of your life chasing wealth. Just work hard day to day, invest your money wisely, and compound interest will make you rich.

How bout stop watering the grass because it's a waste of water and put in some succulents
