In this motivational vlog, 21‑year‑old e‑commerce entrepreneur Nathan Miller (referred to as Speaker A) shares his rapid rise from working part‑time at a pizzeria earning $20 an hour to generating nearly $500,000 in monthly revenue within two years. He frames self‑doubt as a universal obstacle that affects anyone, regardless of their ambition, and outlines five concrete strategies to overcome it. The first strategy is to "think big" and discard limiting beliefs by visualising historic innovators and the vast possibilities that exist. The second is to relate to people who have already succeeded, treating them as normal humans whose journeys can be modelled. The third is to recognize which stage of the entrepreneurial journey one is currently in, accepting that failure and learning are inevitable. The fourth is to seek inspiration from online content creators (e.g., Jordan Welch) on YouTube or TikTok, using their testimonies to boost confidence. The fifth and final strategy is consistent, daily work—emphasising that steady effort over time beats occasional intense bursts. Throughout, Miller interweaves personal anecdotes (e.g., going from $30 in the bank to $100k, scaling a winning product, gym progress) to illustrate each point. He concludes by normalising self‑doubt as a growth signal, urging viewers to leverage the internet for mentorship, engage in the comments, and stay tuned for future mindset content.

Hey guys, how's it going? So we did nearly $500,000 in the revenue this month. And I just kind of wanted to talk about basically, you know, just a little bit about my journey, you know, about my journey in ecom and about self doubt. Because self doubt is a big part of the journey, guys. Everyone faces it. You know, it doesn't matter what journey you're on. You could be going to play in the NBA. You could be, you know, pro Fortnite streamer. Doesn't matter. Everyone starts at right bottom. Everybody has self doubt. Just remember that. So, gonna refresh this so you guys can see I'm not fibbing and you guys can really see. Yeah, I almost hit 500k this month. Next month I'm going to do a million or more. So stay tuned for that. But you know, I'm 21 years old, guys. If you don't know anything about me, this is your first video watching. 21 years old, you know, like six actually. Let me do the math. Nine months ago, you know, I was making pizzas, working, you know, 30, 35 hours a week, $20 an hour, you know, just making, you know, living, getting by. And I found my first winning product, scaled it up a little bit and then ever since then I've been full on E Comm. And this is my first time hitting numbers like this. And it's been about two years in the game so far. So really exciting stuff. But that's basically sort of a little recap on me. But I want to talk about, you know, I know there's a lot of people out there who want to do E Comm, but there's also people who do want to, you know, day trade, you know, they want to do agencies. There's so many different ways to make money online or even in sports or like anything you want to do. And the truth that I've figured out, guys, and through this journey is that you could do anything that you put your mind to. Like, seriously, you can literally do anything you want to. This sounds crazy, but I know if I move to freaking England right now and I have some, I would say I have a little bit of raw talent when it comes to soccer. Just a little bit just because of thinking and stuff. But I think if I, you know, trained for a year and trained consistently every day, that I would be able to be, not in Premier League, obviously, but like, like a lower division, you know, like five tiers down, maybe I'd be able to be a pro soccer player. Like I 100% believe that and that could just sound really delusional some guys. But literally like the recipe for success is literally just putting hours into that space specific endeavor you want to do. You know, I've put in my hours in E. Com and that's why I've gotten to this point. I've put in hours to the gym, that's why I have a decent physique. So like literally anything you want to get good at, obviously some people are going to be more naturally talented. But if you put in the hours like you can't, you can't lose. So if you guys have any self doubts or anything, perfect. Click. Glad you clicked on the video because I actually want to talk about that. So here we go. What to do when you have self doubt. Inevitable. All right. And you see this cat here, he's obviously got some self doubt. He's thinking about, you know, am I gonna eat tonight? Am I gonna be able to, you know, cuddle with a human? So he's got some self doubt going on. But basically I'm gonna go through the things that have worked for me through this journey with self doubt. And I've had self doubt. Like I have times where I thought about quitting. So, so close to quitting, you know, so close to just changing paths and stuff like that. Even when I already made profit, like even after that, like I was, I had so much self doubt. So let's talk about it. All right. One, think big. All right, so first thing you want to do is you want to think big, okay? You want to get rid of this freaking limiting belief. It's so hard to do. And we all have. It doesn't matter what level you're at. Everyone gets limiting beliefs but like they're not real. Like the beliefs, the limits you set on yourself are the only limits that you will have. You gotta believe that like it's 100% true. People. There's a dude out there who was born who made a freaking. The first car when nobody thought that was possible. Nobody even knew what a car was. Like if you think about that, like people were still freaking throwing rocks at each other and they're out here, this guy just built the car. Like it's insane. Like there's people. If you go to New York City, I was just in New York City, there's people who own those skyscrapers, people who own these multi million billion like each. There's so much possibility and it. I know for a lot of people that we grow up in these, you know, these families that are just average families or you know, lower class families and they don't do much and they're just normal people and that's fine. But they put these limiting beliefs on you and themselves because that's all they know. But guys, there's so much more out there. There's infinite out there. Like, there's even more than what's out there right now that can be achieved. And you got to believe that. You gotta, you gotta understand that. And once you start actually achieving stuff, you'll start to, you know, really truly believe that. For me, it started like with the gym, like getting in shape. And then I'm like, wow, I can really do something if I put in the time, like I can actually make this thing happen. So then that kind of transferred over to E Comm. So number one, think big, guys. Think about, you know, the biggest people out there. Like, think about even in your town where you live, people own all those buildings, people own all those businesses, like the hospital, Somebody owns that. Like it's. Or maybe not maybe the government, I don't know. But you go, I'm saying, number two, relate to people who have done it before. All right, you know, the honey bun right here, he's definitely done it before. You know, he came from the dirt. Was he gifted with, you know, great genetics, obviously? Yeah. But he put in the hours, man, he probably had self doubt. He 100% had self doubt as well. But he put in that work and he got there. But for specific, specifically for me, I like to relate myself to, you know, other E Commerce guys or other guys who do online business. And I like to, you know that they're, they're humans. They're just like me. Like, they're normal people. They're not, you know, just better than me. Don't think they're better than you, because they're not. They're just people who have stuck with something for long enough to become really, really good at it. That's really all it boils down to. So if you can, you know, find whoever you look up to and whatever niche that you like, and you can just like, kind of like just tell yourself, like, that's a normal person. They were at where I'm at right now. Like, and that does a lot of help for you to kind of like be like, okay, I can do this, I can actually do this. If they can do it, I can do it too. It's that kind of thing. Number three, realize which part of journey you're on. So I will say most of you guys who watch this video probably you know, down here you probably haven't had many results. You probably don't have a lot of, you know, you know, testimony and like I said, results to base your belief off of. You know, maybe you did have originally a little blip right here and then it came back down and now you're like where I was, you know, months ago. But just know that like, this is literally what happens. This is what happened to me. So two years ago I was right here, boom, winning product down. And then boom, winning product down. You know, beliefs still pretty low. But then, guys, the right opportunity and because I still believed the opportunity aligned with I believe and aligned with my skills. And this is kind of me right now. I'm kind of shooting up there, you know, shooting the frig up. So that's pretty sick. But just realize, guys, that it's a journey you're not going to get there instantly. You know, the first product you throw up probably not going to get a sale unless you have, you know, a really good mentor or a really good, you learn from someone. But it just, you're gonna have to learn the process. There's gonna be lots and lots of failure on the way. But that's life, man. That's, that's the good part. You know, failing is like, it means you're actually learning. If you're not failing, you're not learning. So just realize what type, what part of the journey you're on and know that, you know, as long as you stay on the path, if you stay on this path, you're gonna end up here. Just gotta stay on the path. It might be a little longer than you think. Not going to be, you know, what is this, 100 years? Not going to be that long. But it will happen and you should believe that. And then number four is get inspired. And this is one of my personal favorites. Anytime I had limiting belief, self doubt or was just down and they, you know, didn't think I had what it takes, I'd go and watch a YouTube video of someone like, you know, Jordan Welch, maybe some other econ guys that I forgot this other guy's name, I don't remember his name. But you know, find someone that you look up to on YouTube and watch like their daily vlog or watch, you know, one of their testimonies and just they will, after watching a video like that, it's really hard not to be have that belief and that inspiration because you're like, they give you the journey that. And they're like, oh wait, they were exactly where I am. You know, not that long ago and they, they made it so, and now they're here. So definitely go to YouTube, go to, I mean Tick Tock. I don't know about TikTok, but go to YouTube and watch one of those videos guys and it will help you so much and it will like just elevate the level you're at belief wise. And then number five, man, the easiest way to believe in something is to work at it. Work at it and be consistent. I do a slash right there because you know, sometimes you can't really work harder. Sometimes there's a limit to like how hard you can work. So then it just becomes a game of working harder over a longer period of time and more consistent basis. But like it's hard to believe you're not going to achieve something when you're working towards it every single day. Like it's really hard. You know, it's those times where like you do a little bit, you know, every week, you don't see much progress but like if you work at something every day, even for a couple hours, you're going to see some progress. Even if it's not with E Comm, even if it's not, you know, you're actually making money from it. But you'll see progress in your creatives, you'll see progress on your website, on your branding, on your offers. Like you'll see progress somewhere and as long as you can see that, you'll be like, okay, I'm heading in the right direction. What's in that direction? Money. So just keep plugging away at that. But that's basically what I wanted to share with you guys. Like self doubt is such a big thing and anyone's life and a lot of people, they buy into it and you know, the majority of people just live with it and they live with it their whole life and it comes back to regret them. But what I like to think of is, you know, I have a lot of self doubt but like, and it's gonna be painful like either way if you're broke, it's gonna be painful to be broke because you're gonna have a shitty life. And if it's, if you're working towards something to be rich, unless your daddy handed you a bunch of money, it's gonna be painful too because there's gonna be a lot of sacrifice, a lot of failures, a lot of learning, a lot of self doubt. And one number one thing that I want you guys to remember is that self doubt is a part of the journey. It's a part. It's a part of this. It's a part of being better, of achieving new levels. Like you just. Especially if you grew up somewhere where or around people where they didn't. You haven't achieved, you know, great things, then like, yeah, you're gonna have self doubt because you haven't seen that in your life before. And that's perfectly fine. But then what I'd say is find people who have on the Internet. We have this Internet now, so like, use it. And hopefully I am helping you guys on that as well because literally it's about to be November 1st tomorrow. Literally in July 29th, I had $30 in my bank account and now I have 100 grand. So just remember that it could change that fast, guys. It's crazy how life works, but. And it rewards you for sticking through. So, you know, hopefully you guys like this video. If you do drop a, like any comment. Comment. Also, if you want to see some other stuff. Want me to talk about other things. I'm not really in the kind of space where I want to be teaching specifics when it comes to ecom, but I love talking about mindset. I love talking about getting better and stuff. So hopefully I helped you guys out. But yeah, take care, guys. Peace.
