  • oh Geosh, i loveu

  • I love this video! It really made me think. (:

  • love this... need to share it with my students. Need to figure out how to create some image that contains information.... no, wait. I will provide the learning opportunity for my students to figure that out~ sweet!

  • You should have a special like button that is made of those words.

    p.s. I love your videos.

  • I love the way you say there a chance :"D

  • These are my favorite videos. I watch them when I need motivation. I really wanna see you one day give a speech. and I always still need to get the book. I heard the 1st half of the audio book. I hope my parents will buy me the book

  • The "So your saying there's a chance" story is made even better by the fact he made it in to the 2006 olympics! :D

  • there is always a chance...

  • That's really inspiration, Josh! I think it's a good idea that you're putting these up on youtube, because all your watchers can see these, but not all your watchers can see you speak in real life!

  • dear Josh,

    I have no idea how I found your channel almost 1 year ago, but i am so glad i did. I love you upbeat personality, and how you talk about overcoming anything that stops, or tries to stop, you. I have taken everything you say to heart, and use it in everyday life. Every wee my english class has inspirational friday, I am going to use this video. I love you Josh, thank you for giving me the confidence i have.

    Much love, Elyse

  • Your videos need much more views! Josh, thank you for everything you do! You're a huge inspiration!

  • hey look at me comment on this video

  • This is cool :)

  • To my knowledge, none of them have a national bestselling book - I love your sense of humor!

    Keep looking up :)

    Oh, we should hang out sometime!

  • @bobthebuilderific His sense of humour is cruel. Just because none of the students had a national best selling book does not mean that there were not successful. He makes it seem like failing in life is better than achieving. The truth is, he was not as talented as the other students were. :)

  • @AnimeMoviePro

    I'm not claiming to know what this guy was thinking when he said what he said, and I'm not trying to be rude or disrespectful in any way, but I disagree. I think he's just trying to say that being unsuccessful in the beginning doesn't mean you should give up. You can do great things by working hard, even if nobody thought you'd be able to accomplish anything.

    AnimeMoviePro, I'm just trying to see the good in people and their messages. I hope you have a great day!

  • @bobthebuilderific That is the thing. The good in people is so miniscule (mostly due to peoples' flaws outweighing their positive traits) that you will waste your entire existence simply on trying to find it. People are disgusting, barbaric, ignorant, cruel, selfish bigots. His humour is deplorable. Realise the truth and step into reality.

  • @AnimeMoviePro You're joking, right. What's the point of life if you have no belief in humanity?

    I'm sorry to get deep on you, but you're being a little ridiculous.

  • @bobthebuilderific My life is not about belief in humanity. It is about my own achievements and intelligence in relation to ignorant fools around me. ;) I am not ridiculous, I have been made this way by other people. I am not naive anymore but it is common knowledge that those with Asperger's Syndrome are easily influenced and imprinted on by others while developing as a child. How are you being 'deep'? Reply to me again when you have learnt more about humanism (your belief) and philosophy.

  • @AnimeMoviePro

    No, you're not naive. You're cynical. I truly am sorry because you have probably been influenced by negative experiences in your past. And if you honestly believe that having a ton of accomplishments under your belt is more fulfilling than hope and love and seeing the good in people, then nothing I can say is going to convince you otherwise.

    I hope someday you see how wrong you are. Until then, good luck in everything :)

  • @bobthebuilderific I acknowledge that I am cynical. At least I am realistic. My accomplishments are what make me happy. Just because you don't agree it doesn't mean that I am wrong. How dare you insult me by saying that I am wrong. I have seen what people are like, what they are capable of and I want as little to do with them as reasonably possible. Hope is for idealists. Love is for people who are too weak to be independent. Seeing the good in people when it is not there is for the delusional.

  • @AnimeMoviePro

    I apologize if I offended you. But for the record, you're the one who attacked me online, anonymously, when I did absolutely nothing to provoke you. I'm trying to respond as gracefully as I can here, and you're making that hard for me to do. So I wish you all the best in your future, and respectfully ask that you let me end this conversation here. I think things are getting a little out of hand, wouldn't you agree?

  • @bobthebuilderific Stop changing the subject to politeness and personal attacks online just because you know that I am right. It's alright, you go and live your life in delusion. At least I understand more about the world and people than you do at this moment in time - despite my age. :) I am very mature for my age and very intelligent. I will succeed and that is largely due to the realistic outlook and motivation.

  • @AnimeMoviePro wow, it's great to see a good, intellectual argument online.

  • @GeckoLink Are you serious or being sarcastic? :\

  • To my knowledge, none of them have a national bestselling book - I love your sense of humor! Keep looking up!

  • ugh you're voice is so nice...

  • Thanks for being amazing, Josh!

  • i love that you made this into a tshirt!!! i wil definitely be buying it/asking for it for christmas! :D love you videoes!!!

  • Lol! "So you're saying there's a chance." Funny, people can turn out to be something they didn't think was possible or other people made seem impossible for them.

  • lol "so you're sayin' there's a chance..." One of the best phrases i will use until i am 90!!

  • what program do you use to do that?

  • that picture thing was awesome!

  • The first person you need to convince is yourself.

  • Your such and inspirationn!,(: -3 xxoo

  • hi josh :D

  • I wonder if when you picked someone 'randomly' and that random comment turned out to be someone 'trolling' or 'hating', if you would still give them the free t-shirt :p

    (not that it'll happen - seeing as everyone loves your videos.)

  • grrrreat!

  • That was amazing. Seriously.

  • You are so eloquent. How do you do words and aargh

  • How do you choose someone randomly? Just curious.

  • joshie woshie! what hawpenned to ywour witto fingew? 1:46

  • You're incredible.

  • This was AWESOME Josh!

  • In August of this year, at the beginning of my first semester in college, my professor told me if I work two jobs, I would get a 1.9 GPA. Guaranteed. He told me straight. Just took the first test, and got one of the 3 A's in the class--a 98%. I'm really grateful he made it a challenge, because if he hasn't, I wouldn't have succeeded.

  • That was so cool!

  • Josh, your videos and your book have changed my life. I can't tell you how glad I am that I found your channel on the day i was ready to give up.

    Thank you.

  • Hey! I just wanted to say thanks! ive been so stuck on trying to figure out what i want to do when i graduate this year that ive forgotten that its not what other people tell me i can or cannot do that matters but what it is i choose to do. and im saying thank you for reminding me that i can do anything if i set my mind to it.

I feel like there is so much darkness in this world, but your videos and speeches bring so much light. You have definitely motivated me, and I'm blessed to have the chance to know you through your videos!

  • Josh u be awesome !

  • Yo Smoshes lol I thought it would be fun to say that. You truely are a great person. Everytime I open your book and start reading it or watch one of your videos I get motivated to achieve my dream and graduate from college one day. I don't have parents who are willing to help pay my college tuition because they don't have a lot of money but thanks to you I know there is a way for me to get money for college, work hard, and graduate college. I shouldn't doubt myself so much and Ill reach my goal.

  • Josh you are awesome its really sad how my subs on youtube are full of your videos and you being so optimistic and happy, and yet my news feed on FB is full of people complaining about everything under the sun....yet you lost a leg to cancer but managed to beat cancer in the long run. Thank you for being you and always keeping your head up.

  • words are pretty cool

  • ah you're so awesome

  • you are inspiring.

  • I wanna be an actress when I grow up. Every single person in my life has told me I can't. One day I'll prove them wrong!!!

  • wow, josh you are amazing and inspired me to go help at the ronald mcdonald house and i mentioned your when they asked me ''Why do you mention amputees so much.'' i would always say '' i have strong inspirations.'' (thats you ) :)

  • My OCD sensors are tingling!

    great vid!

  • I don't have Twitter LOL

  • I like chikin nuggets

  • This was so inspirational, made my day, I'm reading your book right now Josh and I absolutely love it. Thanks for being so amazing!:)

  • Your videos always make me smile. I love you, Josh. :D

  • My mum has been feeling really low after some lost job opportunities and i played her this and it made he smile and laugh, I'm thinking about buying her your book for christmas to help her gain some feelings of self worth again! thanks xxx

  • Hey Josh I read your book and I just want to say how amazing it is, I'm still in high school and publishing a book of my own seems like a pretty silly idea but after watching all of your videos I now believe anything is possible, so thanks for giving hope and inspiration to everyone (:

  • I just started college and I'm so inspired by this right now.

  • great video!

  • AWESOMENESS!!!

  • You're so awesome! I wish you could come to my school, but I'm too shy and afraid to ask anyone anything :P.

  • I always come away from these videos feeling freshly motivated and ready to finaly do all of the things I've been putting off for ages =) Thank you x

  • All your wordart videos inspire me even when I don't need any :)

  • whats up with the sex hair?

  • AH this video came out on my birthday! great gift FYI:) i love your videos! ps i hope you and ashley are doing good:)

  • Yeah I'm gonna buy the shirt regardless of if I win.. so it should go to someone else. I'm with ya Panda

  • Is there a difference between your paperback and hard cover book?

  • haha guys its just one spelling error he's only human. not a big deal; i'm sure you've made a spelling mistake before, and i bet no one who sees you in the shirt will even notice the mistake.

  • I think i'm random enough...

  • Your so inspiring! :) xx

  • OMG I WON. Maybe? No? Okay.

    Lol if this wins...

  • these really do inspire me :D

  • Winner ;)?

    

  • lol you got whoa instead of woe *

  • thisis amazing:)love these!

  • Will you post them to Malaysia?

    :)

  • I agree with "corneliusofdark." Great video as always, but unless that was an intentional play on words, I'm pretty sure the proper word is "woe" not "whoa." As I said, I really enjoy all your videos, and have really gotten a lot from them, but I know if it was me, I wouldn't want to be producing merchandise with a spelling error, and have none of my fans help me out and tell me I made a small error.

    Thanks for the video!

  • 'So you say there is a chance..' Loved it :DD

  • I was having a really bad day. Then I watched your vid. There is just something about your stories and your voice that brightens my day. Thanks so much. We should hangout sometime,

  • Wow nice video

  • You're motivational speaker wordarts are really motivating :-) Thank you so much for those words!

  • That was saaweeeet!

  • I really love your videos. My boyfriend showed me your 1mt 1mt video and I've been hooked. You're so inspiring, and your speeches are captivating. Thank you for sharing your talent and yourself with us on youtube <3

  • Awesome! I like these videos, but I like seeing your face more!

  • The word art was awesome! I seriously miss the just don't fall vids :(

  • So haterz & doubterz are in our lives for a reason. We just haven't understood how helpful they are until Josh happened to us! <3

  • Love it!

  • Comment removed

  • Loved how you showed em' you don't need someones approval to be a great writer. Nice. :)

    ......oh and I'd love a shirt/poster. :)

  • Awesome as always!

  • I really enjoyed listening to that story! XD

  • i bet these guys are only commenting for the shirt...

  • This was by far my favorite motivational speaker video. The content was less cheesey and more relatable.

  • Whoa, this made me just feel tons better.

    I went in for a job interview today and totally bombed and I didn't get the job. D:

    But this makes me feel way better. Thanks Josh! :D

  • You inspire me. A month ago, my 2 best friends died in a tragic car accident. They were both 16. When I am having a bad day or think that life isn't going to go on, I come to your channel for motivation. Thank you so much. You have had such an impact on me, as I'm sure you have with millions of others. Keep doing what you're doing. Thanks. :)

  • I enjoy your overactive Eyebrows.
