  Okay, we have been stealing but we go exact same place slightly
• 0:05
  different stage layout. I didn't have the free slab
• 0:08
  sunglasses this front I doing. Okay.
• 0:09
  So Daniel Jones and this is my brand the astral world because
• 0:15
  we are considering what do you do?
• 0:17
  I like that idea very severely so this is a really YouTube
• 0:20
  channel just like my main thing. I'm going to YouTube, but
• 0:24
  basically I also have a scientist and I also have a
• 0:28
  published author of the book. Actually our best seller in the
• 0:31
  US or the UK, which is kind of cool cause the holster on the
• 0:34
  but anyway, so that's kind of what I do.
• 0:36
  I'm also a musician but above all else I want to detox and I
• 0:41
  do a lot of kind of events like this because I have diagnosed
• 0:44
  with Asperger syndrome media to you'll see in dyslexia.
• 0:47
  So we're going to be like peeking through Target 20
• 0:49
  minutes about what everything but you'd really get to talk
• 0:51
  really fast. If not going to use to listen to
• 0:53
  something. You need to see something get
• 0:54
  used to something. Hell I am my liege channel is an
• 1:02
  award-winning YouTube channel until was I went to YouTube in
• 1:04
  that Temple was basically you just take all the channels in
• 1:07
  the UK and they say which ones are going to be the best.
• 1:11
  We possibly the biggest YouTube channels of the Visa.
• 1:13
  They kind of give you all the very really and then they say by
• 1:16
  but because I've really gets it one of them off to that which is
• 1:18
  kind of cool. But also when it was for the
• 1:21
  number 9 and best top 40 water balloon blogs or information
• 1:25
  points are in the world, the national System state is one of
• 1:28
  those are the nine which is kind of cool.
• 1:29
  So I was kind of shocked When I forgot that was the cool weather
• 1:32
  along building, which is quite funny.
• 1:36
  Okay. So the way you should tell
• 1:38
  currently is 43 thousand subscribers, which is a couple
• 1:41
  of big chunk of people since why I have to say it's quite fun
• 1:44
  with the basically video trying to educate or given all of the
• 1:50
  people who want to learn more about our fatigue syndrome in
• 1:53
  general and also the but actually from China chocolatey
• 1:55
  see LCD monitor them from from any kind of function, you know,
• 2:00
  People who know them or whatever I thought about the whole thing
• 2:02
  and the idea was that I wanted to do something fun because when
• 2:05
  I was diagnosed with Asperger syndrome, I went on the internet
• 2:08
  and I was like, I didn't know anything about it.
• 2:09
  This is really really fun. So I'd always been this like
• 2:12
  weird kid. I don't know what's going on
• 2:13
  with me and I don't like no sir. Not that good.
• 2:16
  It's like all I did all his Refinery say autism little
• 2:19
  agreement. Like what I bring them.
• 2:21
  So this is fun. But I guess all time like him
• 2:24
  go. Laughs.
• 2:24
  You look great man. Anyway, so I was like, okay.
• 2:29
  I came across YouTube obviously a huge part from eventually once
• 2:33
  I press ok. Really, you know the like
• 3:01
  Primary School being the kid who's been qualified to play
• 3:04
  people into the kitchen and told thing of computers and stuff and
• 3:07
  like programming computers invented things, you know, so
• 3:09
  find kid walk around like playing electronic sounds like
• 3:11
  fun, but it was an interesting experience.
• 3:14
  So what I did is I created the Afterglow of what kind of bet
• 3:17
  the name of the open knows this stupid the a sphere over
• 3:19
  everything that's happening and they always say as fire involved
• 3:23
  you want to be as firewalls with no, no, just ask me because ask
• 3:26
  yourself. That's like my favorite place
• 3:36
  ever in the world. I was obsessed with it because
• 3:39
  hospitals and I'm going to get super obsessions in things all
• 3:41
  the time. So I'm obsessed the top of
• 3:43
  Cisco. This is Golden Gate Bridge in
• 3:45
  the background. So it's here obsessing over
• 3:47
  obviously think video is the Folly do which is not all that
• 3:51
  is all about 20 minutes away, right?
• 4:00
  Let's go. Sorry.
• 4:01
  My phone is okay. So YouTube.
• 4:03
  Let's see if this works Youtube. Yay.
• 4:06
  Okay some time on YouTube besides.
• 4:08
  I've got an issue because YouTube has 1 billion 300
• 4:11
  million active users, which is incredible now anything about
• 4:14
  trying to reach an audience based people say like hey, you
• 4:18
  know people buy books and thereby looks is cool.
• 4:21
  But I am only now watching videos.
• 4:22
  I mean, I think YouTube is the biggest TV network in the world
• 4:24
  in the history of world what people want you to know either
• 4:27
  in TV show on the world's. I'm thinking this is the best
• 4:29
  place Has to have an outlet to tell them share a story with
• 4:32
  people about your life about other people's eyes.
• 4:34
  I'm actually trying to educate people I get so much feedback
• 4:37
  from my my folders or whatever calls subscribers just saying
• 4:41
  how grateful they are of the content was there to hold value
• 4:43
  is all about giving value to people that's what I wanted to
• 4:45
  do with it because the beauty of YouTube is that you could just
• 4:48
  go on and do everyone leave when you want to open up and I wanted
• 4:51
  to give people something of value that help you with all
• 4:54
  that other people like my book isn't about helping people.
• 4:57
  I do a lot of kind of like bronzed you so much.
• 4:59
  Health Sciences of Exile of just picture I want to school so
• 5:03
  that's why I chose you to be the other one is at each of his Open
• 5:06
  Access. Basically the anybody can go
• 5:07
  online along with YouTube's album videos from by Cintron.
• 5:11
  They're only going to get haters.
• 5:12
  You can stop them away. But you know, that's what
• 5:14
  happens when you have a figure of speech you want to see
• 5:19
  whatever you like. It's by the way because you get
• 5:22
  a lot of like use but you also get lonely for things like me.
• 5:31
  Interesting. Now the other part of you to
• 5:32
  blame on passing this what really got me involved is that
• 5:36
  the creativity part of it. No, all I do is I talk about
• 5:38
  creative like flared people and everything always like us lives
• 5:43
  and more to do crazy stuff so I could play music and I know
• 5:47
  obviously I'm dyslexic and a little buttons how to write a
• 5:49
  book and then also go to YouTube channel films like foreign 1000
• 5:52
  and literally just come back from LA right now because I was
• 5:54
  in LA for this conference is massive usually Festival happens
• 5:58
  in America, and I was there meeting with The onus of about
• 6:01
  the universe panels the future other things like how to make it
• 6:05
  more accessible people on the Spectrum, which is amazing, but
• 6:07
  the creative opportunities I think on the counter and I would
• 6:10
  learn how to make huge like probably calling movies just for
• 6:13
  being on YouTube and I love so I can focus in on this same way
• 6:16
  stupid just like you guys give him anything phenomenal is
• 6:19
  repossession cameras and say this and I learned about another
• 6:21
  cool thing about and you to mazing Bonnie's you can learn
• 6:24
  anything you want so I don't brag away too, but not paying me
• 6:26
  by the hour exhilarating. The second reason is that I just
• 6:47
  wanted to do was I wanted to help people which is enough
• 6:50
  videos on that me later and I'll let you have an idea for the
• 6:56
  years. I do videos on like how to
• 6:59
  notice signs. I wanted my children how to know
• 7:02
  if a friend is having a meltdown what to do if an atomic
• 7:04
  meltdown, how do you want Vaya T hacks?
• 7:06
  Like Alton have like a bright outfit with rubber shoe laces in
• 7:09
  my shoes and I see my shoes, but I don't have a plan relationship
• 7:11
  with shoelaces. Nothing else was back in.
• 7:13
  How's this? So on the friendly welcome.
• 7:15
  She'll fit your kid got nothing problems.
• 8:00
  Change is making that build community.
• 8:02
  We also run a Facebook group, which is I think it's like 1.5
• 8:07
  thousands of another over the edge of the Facebook group is
• 8:09
  that people going to have discuss these ideas which is
• 8:11
  super awesome. So that was the idea of using
• 8:13
  YouTube because it builds community and that is I feel
• 8:15
  like that is very very important.
• 8:17
  And the last thing I'll say about YouTube is that it was
• 8:21
  like a confidence thing right here.
• 8:24
  So everybody who performers when it was something pretty awful
• 8:27
  now and talked a lot of rubbish. I don't - the thinking of making
• 8:31
  some sense but I like to find a play music and it will snow
• 8:33
  globes and YouTube was way type of building confidence now that
• 8:39
  when I first I need you to look my first ever YouTube You've
• 8:41
  rubbish I'm sitting like so it was sort of like people watching
• 8:48
  you. His confidence to be conference
• 9:01
  doing other things which is why they always do these events.
• 9:03
  I feel like it's just like being on my camera isn't like animal
• 9:07
  wearing sunglasses indoors, but it's like talking to a camera
• 9:10
  that you guys actually he'll just fun but it does happen
• 9:13
  tonight and of encourage this because if we don't have
• 9:16
  confidence will never be able to have the ability to go for
• 9:19
  creativity to make ourselves successful in things right
• 9:24
  another super important. So like I love the fact that you
• 9:27
  to build conference. Would you like your own my TV?
• 9:29
  He goes like that pretty pretty awesome other sleeping honest
• 9:33
  and who as of course the inspiration of God and suddenly
• 9:36
  it right. Anyway, I'm so sorry about all
• 9:41
  this so we can actually encourage people
• 9:59
  to If you get inspired by them, so don't discover.
• 10:02
  I'm really motivated to do stuff.
• 10:04
  Like I said, so don't have to like we've also the mic I have
• 10:07
  all my life as I know it sounds trouble know that this kid he
• 10:11
  always just he's not playing with the other kids and I'm
• 10:14
  painting is the only people don't have to know at home and
• 10:16
  it's a 19th of last. So any brother Oliver awesome,
• 10:19
  and I usually let me especially my Folly had it on film but now
• 10:22
  I gotta see my son's getting a second wind.
• 11:01
  If you can sit and us, you know the special it's kind of like
• 11:04
  you're miles away from the else's conversation.
• 11:06
  So I got I got started first off so I can when I was in college,
• 11:10
  I had to ride the bus horrible experience and public
• 11:12
  drunkenness massive drinking with and so on this topic for
• 11:14
  the legendary, you know bodies in the UK and it's raining and
• 11:17
  that he feels like hey, how's it going?
• 11:19
  Like well, I don't know you wait sort of me and I like why does
• 11:23
  get today like no it's raining. So all these things are most
• 11:27
  like I feel so distant. I'm like, why do people feel
• 11:30
  Need the hit that the compelling need to go talk to complete
• 11:32
  stranger and a public setting I think so small.
• 11:38
  So the idea here is that you need to be small social
• 11:44
  exercises to what I know. I don't know what it is.
• 11:47
  Okay. I'm really kind of Isle of Crete
• 12:32
  to do that. I'm inspired to be creative and
• 12:33
  I always find it's like other people keep raising.
• 12:35
  One thing I say is that one of my patreon subscribers opposite
• 12:39
  all my kids playing Minecraft full-time.
• 12:41
  This is Father Goods. It's also for this Minecraft is
• 12:43
  like a really cool ways to engage your brain something like
• 12:46
  super awesome. And also there's some social
• 12:47
  interaction as well, which is something to remember about
• 12:49
  gaming so I try and get people really don't know private bill
• 12:54
  strips onto the brain is something you only offers
• 12:56
  vacuum. So they say get them inspired to
• 12:58
  get scream of stuff nothing. More confident and will
• 13:00
  definitely help you later on the right will help me.
• 13:02
  Anyway, I think and also the total free, so please bear with
• 13:04
  me. So this is all about really to
• 13:08
  focus right now, and I'm very versatile.
• 13:11
  So I focus on things like I don't know if you guys have
• 13:14
  anybody does especially notable inspection for you this way here
• 13:18
  the phone like I focus on stuff that's 2,000 Focus right?
• 13:21
  I get these again small focusing.
• 13:22
  I won't have something in the street.
• 13:24
  I'm like, what is this? Is that tiny piece of a logical
• 13:27
  but nothing. Productivity stay out of it.
• 13:29
  You can make like a robot. Bring all the vehicle actually
• 13:32
  makes another unique host celebrate Kingdom Under The
• 13:34
  Machine it came from how to stay in some other things all the
• 13:36
  good. I could be like to call for
• 13:38
  hours when you settled for this thing that really annoys my
• 13:40
  girlfriend Robin like a personal statement.
• 13:42
  Like what is it? So C is super focused on this
• 13:47
  whole time to lose but compensation of the Zone into
• 13:49
  the second there goes reality like I'm back in the room again,
• 13:53
  and the other thing in focus is not a new really obsessed with
• 13:56
  things like really obsessed with often can't stomach It was verse
• 13:59
  of thousands of houses must suffer from a conveyor.
• 14:29
  Phone number my church looking ahead and I'm learning about
• 14:32
  these algorithmic changes SEO optimization type content.
• 14:35
  I love it and love it. I love it so much that I watched
• 14:38
  a child whole video influencers we talk about this thing.
• 14:40
  Right and I was like sitting down with the idea that they
• 14:43
  will miss. They miss the trip was Nicole
• 14:44
  Valentine type keywords. Don't bore you with the details.
• 14:46
  But anyway, how's that? The humans are really into them
• 14:48
  and you have to optimize your videos badly these guys who do
• 14:51
  the video channel on this subject.
• 14:52
  So I was in LA they found out about me.
• 14:54
  I wanted to interview me. I'm literally two days ago.
• 14:56
  I didn't to on that channel down there. how to do the wrong thing
• 15:12
  I'm not going to like this. Okay?
• 15:32
  Is nothing photo of teachers like I'm going to do anything is
• 15:35
  he weird? It's like thanks a lot and I
• 15:38
  can't score enough coffee to sign off so that the music but
• 15:41
  the play music performing arts and I'm scary but loved and well
• 15:44
  things are looking creative and then I think I'd assume
• 15:47
  chemistry for I thought it was good.
• 15:49
  So let's go chemistry. And those are you could compute
• 15:51
  everything in the world about the singularity and I was just
• 15:54
  amazing. So I invited so I did a degree
• 15:56
  in chemistry, which is pretty amazing.
• 15:58
  I can start a minute and then but with that it again, it's a
• 16:02
  book. Kissing like you you really
• 16:04
  drill down into something to get it into diffuse fault.
• 16:08
  Now, this is something I found quite interesting.
• 16:09
  Like I like to say that people are things in a more people on
• 16:12
  the Spectrum can use abstract form writer to survive have to I
• 16:17
  know I'm sorry. I thought I feel like when I
• 16:19
  look at something and think house is V.
• 16:23
  So I made my own camera was white.
• 16:32
  The paper taking capture of both of experiences with Autumn comes
• 16:36
  in hits the license agreement the brush itself.
• 16:38
  So made this camera. I didn't think much of them tiny
• 16:41
  hole in it and then approach the shuttle in front of it and I
• 16:43
  wasn't supposed to think about the film's drink.
• 16:46
  So to me that is that's not a struggling, you know, I don't
• 16:49
  really know what is so I think it's the terminology used is
• 16:52
  sometimes wrong in its Effectiveness in can understand
• 16:55
  this kind of service is very academic and clinical weird.
• 16:58
  And I think we need to be more versatile and really with people
• 17:01
  who I also finally for helping oh good, so
• 17:33
  So also my superpowers I was one of the things that use I think I
• 17:36
  do want to talk some this. This is why kind of like a
• 17:38
  bullet into my talk right now he is because I feel like too many
• 17:42
  people and I did a video actually interviewers my
• 17:44
  childhood also supports develop this and cool.
• 17:46
  So if you keep on the pictures of no no, no, it's okay.
• 17:53
  So people are really really really clever.
• 17:56
  I think it's something that I do the roses are you that I come
• 17:59
  due at anyone close to you is getting deeper.
• 18:02
  I'd love to be able to go to like Manchester City Centre or
• 18:05
  he'll just sit there and drink tea.
• 18:06
  I can't do that. I'd love your thoughts on
• 18:08
  Barcelona. I can't do that.
• 18:09
  Like I can't I can't read it all I'll go first.
• 18:13
  So you get like you get stuck in the house.
• 18:16
  Where you going? It is the other son and so we're
• 18:34
  essentially going so clearly the same like I was saying earlier
• 18:37
  from some of the earlier. One of the organizers are saying
• 18:39
  that when when I did my degree in chemistry actually create a
• 18:42
  teaching tool actually called the university something
• 18:45
  different. I know him to Tempur-Pedic a PhD
• 18:48
  for your science rewrite. So that is that I think one of
• 18:51
  my older they did this thing where I refused Minecraft and
• 18:55
  with chemistry and I made some comment consumption groups.
• 18:59
  They were teaching tool within Minecraft bridges like physical
• 19:01
  for rotational chemistry is like But it's really easy my dinner,
• 19:09
  of course people think I'm stupid, huh?
• 19:10
  It's not just thought of something I can do that they can
• 19:12
  do but just like I said, they can do loads of things.
• 19:15
  I don't do as we think it's around two people take for
• 19:17
  granted a just walk down with her and I ended every weapons
• 19:20
  you are just going to go, you know, they're gonna hold these
• 19:23
  like I've eaten is Ashley walked on our wondering like one is by
• 19:26
  I wish I could do that, but I can't and it's really weird
• 19:28
  hurry another deep stuff when I when I was go back to Gold know
• 19:31
  someone very awesome. All right.
• 19:33
  So this is all and good for your system to days and stuff unless
• 19:37
  you guys all the questions and all bugger off.
• 19:39
  But the I'm also going to take a selfie with everyone because
• 19:43
  I've never done that we should see take a stage so I actually
• 19:46
  don't see it right now. Alright, let me get the best
• 19:47
  smile. We should take the videos.
• 20:05
  Okay, I want to shout like yeah after three days.
• 20:08
  One, two, three. This is will be on YouTube on my
• 20:21
  blog. Don't you worry, you will
• 20:22
  probably Saturday. Yo Moma below the buses.
• 20:26
  Okay. So also my superpower right?
• 20:28
  Let's get onto. Okay.
• 20:29
  We'll do it a few minutes ago. I want to coach people who have
• 20:35
  any kind of University to be amazing or what they're good at
• 20:38
  and everyone has like a focus life.
• 20:39
  Somebody like could be really good numbers and getting really
• 20:42
  good at Art even something that I'm working with is a bit under
• 20:46
  pressure here this amazing quote from our watches Observer.
• 20:49
  This is amazing. He said that why did you live a
• 20:52
  like, you know of the secure job and offered right?
• 20:55
  But make your life miserable, especially people with ASD much
• 20:57
  of the breath is always always is to have the student a long
• 21:00
  life where you have a very short life filled with happiness.
• 21:03
  Amazing quotes So, I always like to try and teach you all to just
• 21:06
  do the thing that they love my fear only live once right.
• 21:08
  I mean like come on. We see something like yeah
• 21:10
  whooping office is 60 million years and I think this like
• 21:14
  who's ever said that they loved uniforms of just be something
• 21:17
  amazing. So the x is why did I decide to
• 21:20
  have a system in place that I would put down things I feel
• 21:24
  passionate about what I want to do.
• 21:25
  I how do I want to complete something amazing.

• 22:03
  just spoke about I want to see if I can align the universe to
• 22:05
  do it sounds weird, but bear with me so I take this I was
• 22:09
  like, oh, I'm rocking out to come use amazing.
• 22:12
  I actually about four five months after creating the same
• 22:16
  thing Grandpa Donald Trump. I didn't know anyone in Japan
• 22:19
  obviously and I'm a Consumer complaint about music and we
• 22:23
  already have this record that was already recorded and the
• 22:24
  label said open out. Okay.
• 22:27
  It was a huge deal. This is a big big deal.
• 22:29
  And actually there's a rapid box number 5 and you Gunshots in HMV
• 22:33
  of Tower Records in some atoms today is it makes it likely to
• 22:38
  Green Day always like other like hums, and it was crazy.
• 22:41
  I like this guy probably has vitamin CD expand in volume to
• 22:45
  focus on allowing myself of the Focus right underneath now, I
• 22:50
  also told you I didn't green chemistry.
• 22:52
  So that's cool. No no confusion about the role
• 22:55
  and I remember I have a huge meltdown in the place.
• 22:58
  I was trying to work out and he said I'm gonna sample from
• 23:00
  homeowners. I'll stuff is horrible.
• 23:01
  It's like the right look, Damaging your mental health
• 23:03
  looks like the more I can do and I never had any complications
• 23:07
  when I was like, what do you want to do is I want to be
• 23:09
  silenced all things work. So then I was like, I've got no
• 23:12
  vocational mechanics, right? So then I decided that I would
• 23:16
  get Focus just on Selina Kyle. I would be a sign writing I
• 23:19
  could do that. So I did and I went straight up
• 23:22
  after Starbright the bottom bun green cabbage juice crazy
• 23:26
  science actual scientist of a weird thing.
• 24:02
  Difficult, my markings are actually speak.
• 24:04
  So I know he's maxed is actually kind of speak to you and I think
• 24:07
  that's amazing stuff. So serious like my best friend,
• 24:10
  so I was like, so I want to talk with my life changed.
• 24:12
  My entire world was a little awkward girl that she's
• 24:15
  everything. I'm about to make it.
• 24:18
  So I was like going to write a book write a book one day I
• 24:22
  said, So I was thinking.
• 26:02
  10 to 11,000 subscribers right sounds like everyone Focus my
• 26:06
  energy on it. And I also showed you earlier.
• 26:07
  I did search engine optimization, which is how you
• 26:09
  get your stuff is coming online. So as I write a little piece
• 26:12
  this I hope I focus on is super focused on it and I streamlined
• 26:16
  my content and I said today here twenty forty three thousand
• 26:21
  subscribers on the channel, which is crazy.
• 26:23
  And like I said, I just went from that with Good Karma Nelly
• 26:25
  and invited me over there still talk next year and also some of
• 26:28
  the city which is a big event in London this year for other kind
• 26:31
  of YouTubers have offices offer. Mom, which is amazing, but the
• 26:34
  idea was that I focus my energy on I actually sort of going to
• 26:38
  do and I did it which is pretty pretty cool.
• 26:40
  So autism are super power is never a bad thing.
• 26:43
  A lot of people find it kind of like a bad thing is negative
• 26:46
  roasted negatives into positives.
• 26:47
  So I always think I hired to do that brought my hands too many
• 26:51
  times, you know, and I could tell you my turkeys hit my head
• 27:00
  a lot due to my diet. I really wish the stuff, you
