In this video Dan Willis of millennialmotivator.ca addresses his recent brief hiatus and outlines three main developments for his YouTube channel. First, he explains a YouTube partnership processing delay that pushed the official partnership date from April to June, prompting him to accelerate the launch of a new online course that teaches how to reach the 4,000 watch‑hour and 1,000 subscriber thresholds in under 90 days; the course will debut with a live interview and exclusive discount codes for viewers. Second, he announces his deeper involvement with the Order of Man community and a strategic shift to broaden channel content beyond pure digital‑business advice, incorporating his experiences as a father of seven, husband, and “dadpreneur,” while still maintaining core topics like digital marketing, business growth, and book reviews. Third, he reveals plans to add stock‑trading education (excluding cryptocurrency) to help viewers build multiple income streams, inspired by Dan Lok’s seven‑income‑stream philosophy. Throughout, Dan expresses enthusiasm for returning to a daily posting schedule, even at early hours, and encourages viewers to subscribe, like, and share.

Don't worry, I'm still here. I didn't go anywhere, but I'm going to tell you what I've been up to. Stick around. Welcome back, ladies and gentlemen. I am Dan from millennialmotivator.ca, helping you learn how to create, engage, and inspire. For those of you that are new to the channel, typically I'm here Monday through Saturday putting up a video daily on how to grow and engage better online with your business. I have been gone for a little while. It's been coming up on a week and a half where I just haven't had a video. I haven't put one out. And the reality is I've been up to a couple of things. So I'm gonna walk you guys through the 2 or 3 things that I've been working on, give you a bit of a forward insight as to where we're gonna go with the channel, and let's make it happen. Okay, first off, this is not gonna be a long video. This is gonna be a shorter, just Quick, here it is, guys. But over the last week and a half, um, I guess it was a week and a half ago, got news from YouTube that, uh, all partnerships— they've been so backlogged from changing their partnership rules, uh, that they had originally said by the end of April they would be all caught up and everybody who had reached that threshold for partnership would be processed through and you would know that you have your partnership or not. Now, that being said, end of April hit and they said it's gonna be the end of June now. You can wait another couple months before this actually gets processed through and you're able to figure it out. So for me, that wasn't gonna cut it. Not that the income was going to be massive off of ad revenue. I've never touted that or had that there, but the ability to have an official partnership as opposed to I've just reached the threshold was very crucial for me to take the next step in creating my online course. Now that being said, I wasn't gonna wait around 2 more months just for them to give me a checkmark. I've got over 9,000 hours on the channel. You guys have been an amazing part of that, sharing it, engaging with the videos, and I am so thankful for that. But that being said, I finally pumped out my course over the next week and a half from that announcement. Pumped out my course on how I hit those thresholds of 4,000 hours watched and 1,000 subscribers in under 90 days. Under 90 videos, I should say. There were a couple Sundays there where I didn't do a video. So that course has been something that I've been working on daily, that's had my attention, that's had my focus. That course will be launching Friday. So the course is all done. I'm gonna do an initial launch after I do an interview with Mark— Dan. André Lafamboise over on Facebook. We're gonna do a live launch of it. For those of you guys here on the channel, rest assured there will be a discount code for you guys here on the channel. For those of you that watch the livestream, there will also be a discount code for the first couple people that subscribe or the first couple people that sign up for the course over there. So that's coming down the pipeline. That's been one of the things that's been eating my time Next up, I have been a part of a group called Order of Man for a little while now, but things are really ramping up in that group and they're doing some pretty amazing things. And what I realized was restricting the content on this channel specifically to digital business is only a fraction of who I am and a fraction of what I'm capable of. And for me, I feel like I can add in some other aspects of my life to this. I love being a dad. I do. I love my 7 kids. I love being a dad, and I haven't been able to really incorporate much of that into my channel. And that's something that I want to be able to make happen. I love being a husband. My wife is amazing. I love being able to share that with people, both men and women. This is what it means to be a husband of a wife. This is what it means to have an amazing wife. Just little things like that, guys. And I'm not talking every day you're gonna get a family-oriented blog or vlog now. That's not gonna happen. But what is gonna happen is there's gonna be more elements of me just being a dadpreneur, let's say. Let's just being an entrepreneur who's a father, who's a husband, who's crazy busy, he's running all over the place and doing all kinds of different stuff. So my hope is that will give a lot more diversity to the channel. They don't— won't always be how do you improve your YouTube channel, how do you use social media, how do you It's gonna be a little bit more diverse in the content that you guys are gonna see, but at the same time, I am gonna keep that core focus of this is what's going on in business, this is how I see the business world engaging and growing, here's how you can use digital marketing. I'll still of course be reading like mad, so book reviews will keep on happening, but the reality is there is gonna be a little bit of change to the content here on the channel. Okay, that was number 2. Last one, number 3. I am going to start probably in the next couple weeks showcasing, um, either some live trading or some stock information. Stock trading, not cryptocurrency. Um, I'm not gonna dive into that, but I have been studying, taking some courses, taking some lessons, reading some books on day trading, what that looks like, how to grow wealth through that. And for me, guys, I, I'm a huge fan of Dan Lok and his His theory that you need to create so many different income streams, and I think he's a huge fan of 7. Having 7 unique income streams, and being an entrepreneur is one of them, and that's a very valuable way to go, but I want to encourage you guys and educate you on different ways that you can build income streams elsewhere as well, so that you have money working while you're working. And I think that would be of value. So, that's it for the announcement time, that's it for the story time. I'm stoked to get back at this, guys, I really am. I've missed doing it. I've missed it being part of my daily routine, even if it means I have to start shooting these videos at 4:30 AM like it is right now. But I hope that you guys are still around, that a week and a half didn't make you all disappear, and I'm excited, I'm very excited to see where the channel's gonna go over the next little bit. Thank you so much for watching, guys, and again, if you haven't, click that subscribe button, little like, and share this out to your friends, family, and anybody you know that might enjoy the Millennial Motivator. See ya. Take it easy. See you tomorrow.
