*honestly this is a youtube treasure*

Holly shit this resonates so much

The biggest issue I've run into is most of my friends are either only interested in going out and drinking or they are married. I sometimes wonder how heavily motivated is my drive for success by the fact that making friends seems like a harder task

Wow, this hit a bit different. Thank you for making this video homie.

I know the feeling too well man. its hard finding friends who get the grind

Can relate a lot. Finding people to bounce off ideas and be peers is challenging for sure. Networking and finding is a skill. The internet and social media was super useful once I started to actually reach out to people 🤙🏼🙏🏻 great vid

Not me: I'm Alone, but not *Lonely* - I love having my own personal space to dive into creating my dreams. I have a group of friends whenever I feel social or want some fun with others. But I never feel lonely.

Great videos here. The algorithm has finally understood me. I'm in the right place!

I think I'm at the stage of trying to convince myself that networking doesn't have to be a waste of time😅 it does seem like the toughest things to get going are the most likely to develop exponentially, making them worthwhile. Great video again Leon👏

This video is amazing, man; instead of JUST being motivational, you're actually helping people. Keep doing what your doing! 🙏🏽

I live a life of solitude, not loneliness. Solitude is choosing to be alone. Loneliness is when you don't want to be alone.

Only at times when you realize not everyone is as motivated as you, but it helps when you put yourself out there or happen to be doing something where there's a sense of community involved.

You're the first KZfaqr ever that I fully relate to. Thank you for existing.

Wow! Just wow. This is exactly how I feel. I was never able to discribe how I feel about me and my friends, but this is exactly how I feel. I have read all the comments and LOVEEEEE the community! I love all the like-minded, but still open-minded, people here. I really hope this community is something that can grow, so every lone wolf can click with someone eventually!

I completely resonate with this. By 33 I have 5 university degrees, and now a dentist on $150k/year. While I made lots of new friends at Uni, post-uni it’s become more lonely as I’ve had to disregard “friends” who were anchors (holding me back) rather than wind in my sails. It happens man 🤔

I just consulted my therapist about this because it sucks. The more I am searching and acting on self improvement, the more that I am feeling lost and alone from my peers. I thought I was going insane because everytime I am socializing I felt like I am wearing a mask. Its comforting to finally hear that what I am experiencing is normal. More videos on this please 😆😆 so far ur the only youtuber that talked about this issue.

This is exactly how I feel. Thanks for making this video, fellow creator here. People around me probably think I’m crazy or a workaholic 😂 I’m always working, or learning things to fulfill my creative itch.

Well if you ever come to Slovakia hit me up and we can have some whiskey 👌

This is a true gem. Thank you so much for treating this topic the way you did it here! Absolutely relatable.

"Of course I couldn't just go, I had to set a goal" haha I can relate to this. Thanks for the video. I have had very similar experiences of feeling like I've been leading a double life and feeling lonely in a room of people. Loneliness has been a huge one for me too but admitting that this is how I have been feeling has actually helped me focus on the quality of my relationships and being more open and honest with myself and other people who want that.

Bruh, Impact Theory has really kept me from going insane in previous years! I'm forever great ful to Tom Bilyeu for what he does.

man, everything you said was 100% equivalent to what I've been experiencing the last two years. It's good to know there are other people out there who feel the same way as you. It could be a lonely road but it doesn't have to. You just need to open up and you'll find dozens (if not hundreds) of people who are on the same path as you, and form some of the best relationships of your life. Thanks for the video, Leon

Thanks Leon! This makes so much sense, I've been trying to connect with people only to find out that I'm doing it all wrong, looking for them in the wrong place, trying to open conversations they're not really interested in. So thanks for sharing this video, liked and subscribed!

Wow, you just described how I feel. I almost quit my dreams, because I feel like everyone is jealous instead of being supportive

This is what I needed! I have been a solo entrepreneur for 12 years, I'm 32 now. All I want is to be able to talk with more people who are hustling and are as ambitious as I am!

This video feels like it was tailor-made for me. I just found out your channel through your other video on spending 50k on fake gurus and stumbled upon this one. I seriously thank you for having made this video. I'm at that stage where I have zero entrepreneurial friends around me and at times it really does feel lonely, even though I love my solitude. Your video was one of the few that really added something useful to me. Thanks a lot man, and never stop doing what you're doing. You just got a new subscriber and you can be sure I'll be here to congratulate you when you hit your 100k and then your 1 million subscribers ;) Um abraço do Rio, Deus te abençoe!

I cannot believe how much I resonate with this. I felt like an idiot, different from everyone around me. I am so happy I found this channel!

Wow, incredible storytelling from the heart. Can totally relate to everything you explained. I also used meetup groups when coping with the loneliest and darkest period of my life. Really helped to connect with others that share the same core values.

I'm so speechless man. You're amazingly relatable. Thank you for this video.

" Life is about the experiences you have with the people you love " this is different

100% can relate. This issue was hitting me full force when I saw your video, watching this made me feel more understood and therefore a bit better :) thank you brother. Don’t give up the good fight.

the moment I started to get serious about my life, my friends started decreasing.. its so lonely but I know its for the better

That is basically what I have been experiencing since Covid broke out. I was like "someone is talking about what I think about all the time". Great content bud. Keep it up.

One of the beauties of the Internet is it helps you find your tribe. Great video!

this is unbelievably relatable and I honestly think everyone has gone through this or will at some point in their lives.

This video really hit home for me. It's good to know I'm not the only one experiencing this loneliness when it comes to following your dreams.

Thanks for being so vulnerable and honest about your experiences bro, it helps a lot

You just gained a new subscriber, this video epitomizes what I’m going through right now I really appreciate it

Damn this hits hard for me right now. Thanks for posting this man

omg thank you you just condensed all my thoughts and emotions over the past 4 years into this one video.

Currently at stage two. The closer i get to my drive and passion, the harder it gets for me to connect with people who are not on that same trajectory. It's really weird, but I wouldn't trade it for anything. still, I can't wait to find great people who are as obsessed with living up to their full potential as I have become.

It gets to a point for me personally where i would hang out with friends just to not sit in my room alone, but the moment we meet up and start to talk im already hating myself for doing so because the conversations will never get me to the next stage where i want to be, its probably the most idiotic thing ever, craving the interaction so much yet hating every moment of it

This really hit me hard. Since I started university and moved into my own apartment, I have been lonely. It has become better over time because now I have some friends and a girlfriend, but it still hits me sometimes. The thing is, I have such different interest than them. All the people I know, are only worried about the next weekend and partying, while I enjoy studying and trying to figure out how to make money. I enjoy investing, I work in a startup besides my studies, and I enjoy reading. The funny thing about your video is about being a lone wolf which I can relate to so much - I have a wolf tattooed on my back, exactly because of the symbolism of being able to survive alone until you meet your pack. I have never really spoken about my loneliness so thank you for letting me know, that there are people out there, who has the same feeling as me! Great video, cheers from Denmark :)

i'm so glad you brought this topic up, as i feel that way right now. it is reassuring and inspiring to hear your story, thank you for sharing it with us. hopefully all of us who feel lonely will find genuine, long-lasting relationships someday.

Waow man, you said it so right, it's like I'm discovering some truth about myself. I truly feel everything what you said. Really, thank you ! You gave me a lot of hope.

Wow! I am amazed to find that there are other people with the same vision as me. I have been actually trying different methods for finding people virtually who have the same values with and can build a relationship with. One of my goals is to scale it, so that it is easier for people to find each other. As always thank you for the amazing content!

I definitely resonate to this.. I’ve been on and off, but still going through a “life improvement” journey where I’m trying to eat more healthy, improve my knowledge and understanding of the world and more. Sometimes the things I used to bond with my friends just doesn’t hit the same to me anymore. It sucks because sometimes I try to filter myself to fit in.

POV: me feeling lonely and realising I don’t have friends, scrolling through KZfaq to find an explanation for it or something that can take my mind temporarily. Here we go! Thanks for the video!! It makes me feel so right and going in the right direction!! Nice to know I’m not the only one who feels the same

Woah, this video really popped out in my recommendations and I couldn’t relate more. I am also a young guy chasing dreams and I belive loneliness is innevitable at some point and being misunderstood seems like the most likely outcome. I am actually feeling the way you described and I’d love having friends with the same mentality as you. A community of “misunderstood” and hard-working people that find it hard to find like-minded friends is truly needed. Great video, I’d love to become part of the ecosystem haha

I have never related more to a KZfaq video before, I truly appreciate this content and in all honesty needed that reassurance and relation. God bless you brother ❤️

I relate to this so hard. Definitely is a lonely journey if you're on the entrepreneurial/business path or just working to improve yourself. Incredible video! Got so much value from watching this.

It's so crazy being on this ride. I was really here thru the start of the old channel, seen it replaced, been on this channel almost since the start and I'm excited to see where this goes next. Easily one of the most relatable person I've came across on youtube

I'm so lucky to have to discovered your channel it's like a blessing. Just when I needed it😆❤

Man It’s crazy how much I related with this video, thanks for sharing.

Leon, you're the first person I've ever heard talk about this yet it resonates with a lot of people, self included. Thank for doing this.

Thankkkkk youuuuuu sooooo muchhhh Leon hearing you definitely cheered me up that I'm not alone suffering🌸

Damn. This is really the best video I have seen in a while. Happy I discovered you and I hope the algorithm will make its job to promote your channel!

Really love the editing and vibe of this channel. Excited to follow and see it grow brother 👊

Wow, I really needed this! This is exactly how I feel and it's nice to see that I'm not alone. Great video🔥

feel you bro ❤️ get higher, there's no way. givin up on your dreams for anyone is just not worth it.

I fully understand how important is networking and meeting new people and gaining friends but i find myself increasingly comfortable being alone most of the time which is scary but comforting at the same time.

As I say: Whisky can never dissapoint you! Good video Leon! Love your honesty and no BS!

I've bookmarked you in two different browsers to make sure I can always come back. Keep doing this, you're resonating with me and so many others in a way we don't get to experience very often.

You're inspirational, bro. Thank you so much for all your videos!

I can relate heavily to your experiences. Tried thr meetup app and groups etc but still struggling. So, definitely not alone on this one...

"Hey guys have you heard of meditation?" - ahah, that kills me) I've always been that guy

bro i have listened to exactly 24 seconds of this video and you have hit a spot in my heart that i can relate more than anybody and this feeling sucks man! you become so ambitious no one wants to be around to listen to your crazy huge goals and ideas and it makes you feel so lost and lonely in life!

Times are tuff . There is one thing we all need and it is each other. Nothing great can be done alone . I am walking proof of overcoming many many many challenges in my life. I've struggled I've starved I've froze like I said times are tough in the news darker days I prayed and wished and hope somebody would say something to me and notice that I've been in pain and noticed that I was struggling. But all I was faced with was denial and shutdowns. I have so much to offered to the 🌍 and just need that one chance. But I will create that chance from my sufferings and turn that into something beautiful to share with everyone. I stumbled across this video on KZfaq and I watched the entirety of it. There's a lot of great things this gentleman said in a lot of you should pay attention. Apply yourself and good things will happen deny yourself and nothing will happen. It starts within

I relate to this on another level. Damn.

"Ambition makes you lonely" Me as an introvert with no friends: OMG, I'm so ambitious!

You helped me a lot by sharing your experience. Stay blessed brother

Your videos just speak the whole truth. Hoping for more videos from you sir.

I relate to this so much OMG.

I favorited this video so I can watch it again from time to time. This really resonated with me. Thank you, Leon.

Ahhhh, the event vision you mentioned just sounds so magical. I truly pray it comes to life. Where all the most loving, beautiful people attend and we move forward into this evolved loving state; creating and inspiring others to create more meaningfulness in the world.

Thanks man this helped, I'm 19 and I think I've only ever had about 2 or 3 genuine conversations in my life. Much love!

Love it! Experiencing the exact same thing, this qs just keeps haunting me all the time but so glad I found such a precise answer... honestly I didn't expect anyone to make a vid about this qs or even have anyone else experience the same thing but when I saw your vid about how u lost your money n bounced back, u talked about making frnz n that really inspired me n motivated me to work even harder on my goals cuz I knew that I can always fix my social life n connect with like-minded people once I'm where I wanna be, and this video is the cherry on top. Thank you sooo muchhh Leon!!! I wish I could meet you or talk to you but your channel's prolly gonna blow up soon n you won't even see this comment, but thanksss a lot anyways I hope the community turns out to be amazing!!! ❤️❤️

I'm presently in the initial phases of entrepreneurship and have no one relatable to bounce stuff off of. Thank you for your candid and blunt approach to YT. I appreciate it.

Thank you for this, and thank you for your channel. I haven't even finished the video, I've barely started it. But even if you offer no useful advice, just feeling seen is enough. It's been really hard, and knowing somebody else out there understands how it feels, makes me feel less like I'm going crazy. Thank you so much!

This is exactly how I feel social wise as a current highschooler. I simply can’t find someone either the same mindset?

This is exactly my life rn 😂😂😂 but I'm just getting passed the *listening to podcast and motivation video* pace

Finally, someone who I can relate too on the same wavelength. Subscribed and all.

This really cracked me up. Extremely relatable!

Ah I'm so glad I came across your videos they are so relatable! I'm highly ambitious but I'm also just into being incredibly normal LOL! The whole pumped up ambitious, fist pump type stuff is definitely not for me. But I love your suggestions in this video, I'd love to connect with more like minded people, I'm yet to find my wolf pack haha!

Interesting video, however, I find the older I get the more i treasure time to myself and being alone. I am older than you and was in a relationship with someone for over 12 years. Although there were great times being with someone it meant you lost a bit of yourself as you took on more of their interests and friends and become less you. I see people in relationships, who have kids, and who have tons of friends and acquaintances. They are always having to do so many things they do not like doing. It is like they have lost their own identity and just become part of the people around them. I admire and find the individualist going his or her own way much more interesting and at peace than the person who is swept up in the crowd. Once i no longer had my relationship and stopped trying to hang out with the work gang and became an individualist my life became so much more interesting. I no longer care or watch or listen to the popular TV shows and music everyone else does. I find my own content like this video on KZfaq. I seek out experiences based on my own interests that are not influenced by others. Be careful what you wish for, so many young people want tons of friends and contacts. Then once they get them, they become so overburdened by them spending all their time and energy trying to maintain them.

This was exactly what I needed at this time.. I really appreciate it man! Absolutely spot on!!👌🏽👌🏽

Yes! This is much needed! Thank you for your content Leon❤

This made me want to go global on Tinder 😂😂

I just moved to a new state this year. And I am starting my own content creation businesses, and I can relate to this 100%. It’s sad, and the worst truth I’m fearing to come to, is that all of them are going to be there for their result but for the actual work, they have no idea.

Very true. Amazingly true. Honestly true. Thanks for your time and advice. Best wishes to you and us all.

This is exactly the same with what I've been feeling. I was really trying to make some friends who have similar thoughts with me, but it didn't work out pretty well. This video gives me hope for going forward. Thanks for sharing your experience.

I am exactly at this level right now. Feeling lonely. I feel like people around me cannot be my true friends. They should be someone like me who has willing to develop with big dreams and goals. Thanks for the video I feel different watching this video knowing there people out there who have been experiencing the situation I am in right now.

I would definitely be interested in attending a meetup with entrepreneurial people that want more out of life. Are you working on that right now, or do you hope that people find each other in the comments?

Beautiful value you have spoke there ☺️☺️ N really appreciate you posting this ❤️

I feel you 100% ... This video is spot on 😎👌

Ok Leon, do you have a facebook or telegram group set up already? Would be happy to join and help grow a community of young ambitious guys. I've been doing business online for a few years while living in europe and asia, and met a lot of cool people, but I think only two of the whisky kind :) I organized meetups in Da Nang, Berlin and Lisbon last year

Wow this is relatable. My ambitions really keep me from enjoying the life I am living right now because Im not being myself in front of people that are important to me.

I can relate. I needed this. Thanks Leon!

Have needed this video all my life

This is sooo recognizable. Thanks for sharing it ❤️
