Video Description

In this video, I share 40 hard-earned truths I wish I knew in my 20s. These insights shaped by my time in the White House, advising companies, and writing books on human behavior and business. Some of them will challenge your thinking. Others will hit a nerve. All of them are meant to help you live and work with more clarity, purpose, and honesty. From how to think about success, regret, and reputation… to what truly matters when it comes to happiness, ambition, and relationships—this video is a field guide for anyone trying to make sense of modern life. And no, I don’t expect you to agree with all 40. But one of them might just change the way you see everything. -- To find out more about Daniel Pink, his books, and view his resources, visit https://danpink.com
