• Thank you . ( 2024 / Jan / 05 )

• Hi David, Happy New Year and all the best for 2024.

  Been following your video content for a while now and it is truly inspirational stuff and has helped me a lot over the last few years. Just wanted to thank you for all of the hard work you put into your videos and the invaluable advice and amazing courses you have put together. This video has been, yet another, big eye opener!

• Love you bro. Haters might hate but you are one of the ones who encouraged me on the path a couple years back. I have taken the advice I liked from your videos and ran with it. Things are great with the job but I have to say I am worried to take the next step. I love what David says about not being smart but putting the work in. Thats exactly what I have done and some of that is thanks to you. Here is to the next year. Great video.

• 40 years old, I want to finish my Azure fundamentals and Azure administration cert!!!

• Love your videos very inspiring and informativ

• This was a particularly GOOD presentation. Thank you David Bombal!

• Thank you Bombal, I do appreciate your efforts

• The scary thing is watching news and following geopolitics very closely, it feels like ok dope I know what's going on world and how to maneuver my life. But consuming information and parsing thru disinformation is hard lol but it must be done by discipline. No excuses

• Im 67 and I dont
  think im too old to learn something

• David, I started following your channel about a year and a half ago. Your content has given me the inspiration I needed to continue learning about cybersecurity and to finish my degree in 2023! I cannot thank you enough for the work you do and the quality of the content you produce.

  For anyone that doubts the principles in this video, I'm living proof that you can change your life in a very short period of time! I got a degree in cybersecurity in 15 months while working a full time job. 1% better per day goes an incredibly long way to ensuring your future success. Don't give up!

• Totally agreed thanks David !!!!

• Thanks so much🙏, it's a good start you've really inspired me and further given me a clue of what to do this year. I do appreciate

• thank you David … this really got me motivated

• I want to learn python but where will I learn it

• Thanks David for the video..

• One of the most important skills to have with anything you aspire to accomplish is…

  Motivation!

• Dear David. You are doing really great job. reading and listening from NEPAL.

• Good advices. Thank you Mr David

• Thanks so much David, just the kickstart I need for 2024. Starting from scratch, yea, almost zero experience and knowledge of tech. But I will do this, and shall come back at the end of journey with great updates. See you later.

• how can one believe in themselves if one failed so many times?

• Thanks so much big brother. you are just a life to some of us and all i can say is God richly bless you and may he give you the strength and the give you more life so he can use you to give us more insight. Thank you man so much

• Hello David ❤, where are you from and how can I contact you?

• Prompt Engineering seems to me a lot like SEO where a lot of poorly qualified people will rush into the field and the masses will suffer from an overload of poor implementations.

• This video right now makes me want to study 🎉🎉😊

• Please suggest how do i learn AI ?

• Thanks you for the information. Please,I want to chat with private. I have a lot of questions to ask.

• David thank you for these nuggets.They are life changing.Just a suggestion, please read a book similar with those, it will be well received.

• When are you writing your own book 😀

• A random search led me to you and couldn’t be more excited – it’s is nice to hear my thoughts echoed by someone successful who is advocating things I have started to put into practice over the last year and half. Atomic habits allowed me to lose 30 lbs, put on muscle and be confident in my physique. I’ve also started my undergrad and have completed 80% of the degree within this year. You speak the truth and i hope more people listen and act on your message.

• Am still on the book atomic habits

• Watched that of 2023 and couldn't do anything. 2024 is here, no hope. This part of the world is just so difficult for the ordinary 💔. To buy a good working system is 50 to 100× the minimum wage 🤦‍♂️. God help me, I just don't want this dream to fade away.

• Thanks for your support! God bless you and your family!🙌

• Do you think Data Science/AI is too big a field for a beginner. I'm interested in Data Science/AI but it seems to require a diverse skillset in math and programming which makes me unsure if I should have it as a goal as a beginner.

• Thank you for your words David. I need to get my self in gear. Love IT and I need to accomplished my dream to get my A+ and keep moving.

• I needed this, David! Thank you. This will be my year!

• To everyone here. The worst thing you can do is to compare your learning skills to others. Everyone learns differently, and grows up differently. If you don't catch on quickly on certain subjects, that's ok! You are a different learner, and tell yourself that and you'll be ok. As long as you keep trying.

• Thank you so much David, I really needed this video❤️

• I got a computer can you please let me know if it is OK and is there only is python chinese to I don't ever won't to bulld anything on Linux or anything that's part of chinese database my sestyem is 8 core i7 7 gen 16gram 5 g graphic

• Hello David and thanks for your amazing video, i’m a computer engineering student and i’m really interested in cyber security, but i am still struggling with choosing between AI and cybersecurity, the fear of staying behind if i choose cybersecurity over AI and …
  It would be really helpful if you make a video of comparing AI and Cybersecurity path and the future of cybersecurity jobs
  Thanks again for the great content ❤

• My big dream in 2024 is to be web developer using django framework, who are with me… 😁 !!!

• Need that Mike Pound interview
