DD Markk, a guy who looks to improve himself and keep everyone sane. A true Legend!

[@unrested7294]

"all you need in life is ignorance and confidence, and then success is sure." - mark twain you need ignorance to learn. otherwise, if you think you know better, you'd never have any room to improve or reflect on yourself. in other words, always be open-minded to learn new things from anyone and develop. you need confidence to act out and apply what you learn to fully convince yourself and those around you that you are commited to success, whatever success means for you.

[@Knull575]

My problem is that I want instant gratification so it eats at me when I don't get the results I want at that moment...

Now i wont be depressed by not making a god takehiko inoue drawing

Damn your growing fast it felt like yesterday when you where at 2k subs (that's when I subbed) and now your art is getting better your mindset too bro your gonna have your own anime one day believe it

I really hope he can get to be an animator for a company since that's his original goal. long road ahead either way

[@Hyplexial]

@@BLANK-wh7kh hope he’s able to fully support himself with comic art one day 🙏

[@jejosa4456]

few weeks ago i started watching you and it has made a chance in my mindset. i now draw daily and i've really improved in art thanks to your wise words

[@GruonGru1011]

in my opinion it's the opposite way but your tip is also really good. thinking of yourself as the shittiest of shitty artists can kind of help because then you will probably understand the reason why you are doing bad by trying to learn your mistakes and then also share with some close people that can review your art as not as a masterpiece but more of a test of your skill like some sort of work type of reviwe what im trying to say is try to realize what makes you bad or good and upgrade these achievements you have got to the point it you can actually try to learn from those mistakes

[@definitivamenteno-malo7919]

More like you need to have a lot of confidence on your goal, but humble enough to understand that you still are learning

[@bourne8636]

I’ve been brainstorming my manga idea all day, the thing is I legit suck at drawing 🤣

[@bourne8636]

But it’s honestly so good, I’m a good writer but lack in everything else 🤦‍♂️

[@isaacthewebcomiccreator9750]

If I’m extremely lucky, maybe I could self publish my Webcomic within this year or next year, which is meant to look visually similar a combination of Treasure Planet and The Iron Giant. That kind of Nostalgia is truly enough to satisfy me.

Thanks for this inspiration

[@joetheartbro2859]

My goal since I started drawing three years ago or four now was to become a manga artist and get published in shonen jump in that mindset hasn’t changed in three or four years and I’m never gonna give up on a dream or that goal recently I’ve started pushing my work on Twitter and while things are slow I still feel like with even a single like it gives me the strength to keep going.

[@CarReckless]

Beautiful video Mark ! I believe I now understand what makes the difference between believing in yourself in a healthy way and when you are being a narcissist . I think it comes down to how you compare yourself to others . You can tell yourself that you are the greatest every day and still admire other people's greatness , and that is great . However when you actively try to (especially) undermine others worth compared to you , that is narcissism. At the end of the day you must never let anyone hold you down , but you should also not hold others down either . Of course , I am not saying that everyone should be immune to criticism , that is a whole other thing .

[@abhijith6589]

Bro I really needed this now. I was really stuck in the gutter with my writing and my art. Thanks g💥

[@shoedraws]

Strong message, great voice, loving what you do DD Rendez-vous at the top 💪

[@thetimturnershow2883]

The Law of Attraction isn’t just about being stagnant and things will just magically manifest… it’s about putting in the hard work and believing in that work and how it’s helping to reach your goals in life. That’s where the magic really comes to life.

[@xMckingwill]

Yes my mindset of wanting to draw better and better bad ass anime waifus has really helped can confirm, cuz if dont do it who will.??

[@FlemingoFilmProductions]

Amazing art, what software do you use?

[@SylentsDraws]

Love your advice my boy!!! always spitting fire!

[@ex8280]

There's a self help book out there that says, never use the phrase "I will", but instead replace it with "I am". I don't know what it is, but it works for me. just try it, you will feel guilty that you physically isn't doing what you are saying by saying "I am". I am drawing.

[@alexanderramirez3136]

Great video man! I love what you had to say! Could you elaborate what you mean by fanart not being sustainable long term 8:47 ? Cause I've been seeing a lot of big artists using fanart to attract followers, then BAM, slap them with the OC content! I want to know if you ever thought about using that strategy. Keep up the amazing work!!!

I was expecting some tips on improving your art but this is way more better, guess I should expect that from the art god dd markk

I was burnt out a few minutes ago. Thanks for rekindling, my hobby bro i needed that.

[@boxmen_v8653]

Thanks again x2

[@pervysage5465]

Positive thinking will not magically quarduple my learning speed and will not make up for years of seedback. Sorry, there's no magic, just grind.

[@selmabm3409]

Thank you for your videos. I really mean it. You’ve answered most of the questions I was asking myself and didn’t know who to turn to. I’m going to art school to learn new skills and meet artists. I have projects I want to make and stories I want to publish. I’ll always keep all the stuff you say in mind.

[@pistoluity]

That's very inspirational, if only I could truly believe in myself that would be wonderful, but there is always this inner voice that I couldn't overcome for all my life saying I'm not good enough and make me think irationnal thoughts about artist being simply talented even if I recognize this is wrong.

[@bt5087]

Honestly, you hit the laws of attraction on the head. And I don't think you even realize it. The people that don't truly understand it will just say well it's just sitting around and waiting for things to come to you. No! It's actually keeping and staying in a positive mindset, positive self-talk, visualizing your goals, and taking action most importantly! Keep up the great work and I hope to dive more into your content!❤

[@Nieco2187]

Love your videos! They help so much I appriciate it man!

Thanks for this! Currently in the middle of a project that has me second guessing myself. You said just what i needed to hear.

Mindset is everything, it is how you react to the world around you as well. Knowing you are a legend is key.

[@venzarez-ili680]

That sasuke meme drawing is very Nostalgic, xD

[@vector-fc9vj]

Bro thanks

[@ghostsgarage2964]

Kinda missed the point of manifestation, manifestation is more so training your mind to recognize when something happens so you actually jump at the chance to do it

[@jonphipps7438]

you said you're not talking about manifesting and the secret but that's exactly what you're doing here XD

[@Sceen09]

I'm a full beginner to art so I never really told me my "art" is trash since what I do is not really art... to me at least since I'm doodoo at drawing actually but swear that I'll go back to theses trash drawings and make them perfect when I'll be a drawing god, yet this video motivated me so much to achieve this goal and keep drawing without being like "it looks so meh" thanks you very much, keep up the heat sir you earned one more sub.

[@forgettableotaku]

When you said "dont tell yourself your trash give yourself" I thought you were going to say give yourself trash XD.

[@manuel_diaz7253]

Bro always says what needs to be said. Literally can’t explain this channel in any other way 🔥

[@kori368]

Is it possible if you can do a forshortning or perspective video? I know you don’t like tutorial videos

[@blueoceans6459]

You are the coolest Artist that always keeps it real 🎨🖌️ Thanks DD Markk

[@Skyeleafe]

I used to be like this. Not even in art but I called myself stupid and trash a lot. Even believing in other people who said this.

[@ChaosAndyLOL]

I only read the title. The best way to improve your art is to stay away from Deidara from Naruto Shippuden at all costs.

[@artbabe2281]

this video was so powerful. i love how the advice in your videos can also be applied generally to life as well

[@mango_c00kie67]

someone with good mental has way better potential than someone with bad mental like me

[@SehaSSinghSodhi]

just telling a small tip when you use a red border in your thumbnails it makes the audience feel that they have already watched it just telling it might bring more views to you if you dont use the red color as a border

[@WelcomeToEdenwick]

Honestly a strong mindset followed by actions that reflect that mindset is indeed the best way to improve. unfortunately I've seen a great number of people adopt a mindset for a second and then do nothing. while it is a fast way to improve it is not an easy one and is not one to do half way. once people can understand that and apply the mindset correctly the will then be able to unlock its true power.

[@maki-kd6mj]

envious people are the ones who often take confidence as being arrogant or a narcissistic trait, because they aren't confident with themselves and they hate seeing ppl that do. I have a low self-esteem, and the way people like me are different from them is how we see confidence as an inspiration. We wanna overcome that certain struggles and we see you guys dealing with it too but has already passed it or have become successful. It's empowering tbh ✨ Really appreciate what you're doing, sharing your own experiences and struggles to the art community :>
