The Antidote Experience

By Robin Klose

My name is Robin, I’m a 24-year-old dude from Frankfurt, Germany and currently seeking answers to extremely complex questions. Join me because we are probably in the same boat and hopefully get inspired :)

Most people who have problems in their personal or professional lives feel responsible for solving everything themselves, even if it seems incredibly daunting. The “good” thing is, everyone experiences the same feelings, doubts and uncertainties, just in fluctuating intensity. Therefore, I hope sharing my ideas and knowledge helps you manifest your deepest hopes in a rapidly-changing world.

My Take On Life & Its Complexities - Analyzing The Relevance Of Some Of Our Greatest Thinkers' Thoughts and Philosophies

My Take On Life & Its Complexities - Analyzing The Relevance Of Some Of Our Greatest Thinkers' Thoughts and Philosophies

Welcome to the Antidote Experience! In this episode, we delve into the fascinating world of philosophy. From health and the nature of man to different world views, we cover a wide range of topics that will challenge and inspire listeners.

We begin by examining the philosophies of Jean-Paul Sartre and Friedrich Nietzsche, two influential thinkers who have shaped our understanding of the human condition. Sartre's concept of "existentialism" emphasizes the individual's freedom and responsibility, while Nietzsche's philosophy of "nihilism" rejects traditional values and promotes the creation of new ones.

Next, we delve into the teachings of Epictetus, a Greek philosopher who emphasized the importance of personal responsibility and the power of the mind. His philosophy of "stoicism" encourages individuals to focus on what they can control and let go of what they cannot.

Finally, we explore the ideas of Thomas Hobbes, an English philosopher who is best known for his work on the nature of man and the social contract. His philosophy of "political realism" asserts that the state exists to protect individuals from the chaos of the natural world and that power should be centralized in the hands of the ruling authority.

Whether you are a philosophy enthusiast or just looking to broaden your perspective, this episode is sure to spark meaningful discussions and provide new insights into the nature of reality. Tune in now to learn more about these influential philosophies and how they continue to shape our understanding of the world today.

A Complete Guide To Make Money On YT - Part 2

A Complete Guide To Make Money On YT - Part 2

Let’s get right into it. Part 1 of these posts was all about starting your journey and growing your channel. Part 2 is all about growing your wallet.

I’ll talk about everything from specific tactics to monetization and other income streams - and this time I won’t forget telling you about that “secret” tactic I’ve been teasing in part 1.

Words Of Caution

But before I do, let me tell you one thing again: don’t go into this expecting to become a bazillionaire by summer of next year. Use YouTube and all other platforms as a creative outlet, some sort of memory book or because you feel like you have something interesting and of value to share.

Money shouldn’t be your main motivation behind this...it’ll set you up for disappointment and take away all the beauty from the process. Do it to build skill sets, to experiment with new things and to grow as a person. Do it because you want to, not because you feel like you HAVE to. Alright, let’s go.

12 Essential Steps to Make Your Landing Page/Website Convert - Online Marketing Tips & Tricks

12 Essential Steps to Make Your Landing Page/Website Convert - Online Marketing Tips & Tricks

Landing pages are the follow-up pages after a prospect clicks on your advertisement on Facebook, Google, Pinterest, Instagram, etc. The goal of the landing page depends on the objective of your brand but most of the time you want to establish some sort of relationship to the potential customer. Is your goal to get an email, to make a sale or to get a phone call? You have to decide upfront and structure your website and landing page according to your objective and customer.  It's super important to follow these 12 steps precisely with your landing page in order to maximize the results and actually get converting customers and purchases. Make sure you've created your perfect customer avatar beforehand so that you can easily speak the same language and talk effectively about their pain points, hopes and fears. I go in-depth in this video on how persuasion works, even if a total stranger lands on your website. We recommend using Zipify, Gempages or Clickfunnels when building your highly successful sales page. The first two integrate directly with Shopify.

A Complete Guide To Make Money On YouTube - Part 1

A Complete Guide To Make Money On YouTube - Part 1

YouTube was founded in 2005 and with over 2 BILLION monthly active users, it’s one of the biggest video sharing sites out there. You can pretty much find anything you can think of on there...for real, think of the most random thing you can come up with and look at what YouTube will give you. You’d be surprised.

And since 2007 they also made it possible to run ads, and it’s one of the best hubs to do so. This also why - like for so many people already out there - making a living via YouTube is only getting more and more common.

We elaborate on finding video ideas, building a set of values to pursue and how to grab your audiences' attention in a good way.

And the best thing about it: once a video is up and approved, it’ll remain untouched until you decide to take it down, collecting those sweet views all by itself...and the more views you get, the more tasty ad money goes into your bank account. This is the magic of passive income. You only need to do the work once and reap the rewards forever.

5 Steps to Become the Best Version of Yourself

5 Steps to Become the Best Version of Yourself

What Becoming Your Best Self Is About

“Simple things that have to be done consistently over large periods of time aren’t necessarily easy.” -a shameless plug from our book

Today I want to talk about 5 principles I follow that can really make a difference. Keep in mind: these principles aren’t step-by-step guides to structuring your day and all that stuff. This is more about the mindset behind every action because the details change from case to case. As I already said, everyone sets their own definitions of success and that's why everyone has to take different steps to get there...but the principles of mindfulness stay.

I always think it’s funny that people spend so much time reading about the morning habits of billionaires and thinking this will actually put them in their shoes. I started out like that as well but came to the realization that this is simply the wrong way of doing it.

There is no blueprint and there are no shortcuts. What I’ll talk about in the coming chapters are pretty simple things to understand, but read the quote from the beginning of the chapter and you’ll think differently of simple things. But for good measure I’ll also list some habits that are proven to make a difference - it may not make sense for everyone but I’ll give it a shot.

Robin Sharma's "The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari" - A Book Summary

Robin Sharma's "The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari" - A Book Summary

Get the book here: https://amzn.to/3rULYBM 


In a nutshell, this best-selling 1997 book, written by Robin Sharma, is about a fictional character who gave up his luxurious lawyer life to live a more centered, mindful and most importantly happier one. Although you could call it a self-help book, it’s not one of the usual ones…  How It’s Different First off, it’s not written in the regular “do this, do that” approach. As mentioned, it’s about the lawyer and the story is told from his point of view. In a conversation with an old friend, he talks about his new life and what he learned on his journey, told in a really beautiful way - it’s honestly a great read. Reading this, you’ll discover new strategies to expand your horizon and become truly grateful for life itself.  The book is also different in the way it’s structured. In it, the main character tells the story of a fable he learned. 

This fable has seven elements that each represent an important key to a happier and more fulfilled life - and each has specific and actionable tactics to practice the principles.   So, I decided to structure this blog post in the same way: first I will tell you the fable and then I’ll quickly go over each of the seven elements and explain their meaning. I obviously won’t be able to do the book justice with a quick blog post like this so you should definitely read the book yourself, you won’t regret it. (*cough* And check out our Top 10 list on other books you should read - shameless plug.)

The 3 Ways To Make Money On Instagram In 2021 - Hack The Algorithm

The 3 Ways To Make Money On Instagram In 2021 - Hack The Algorithm

When it comes to Instagram, you have probably asked yourself the following question multiple times by now: How do all of these regular people manage to make so much money while you’re doing nothing different?  From the outside, it seems pretty easy, right? Just take some cute pics of yourself, post them with some smart hashtags, promote the post in your story, keep on doing this for like 3 years and voilà, you’re jet-setting around the world and your whole life is a vacation...actually, no. It’s much more than that.  

Nothing Comes From Nothing We’re all spending a rather large part of our days on our phones and social media, why not use that time wisely and productively instead? The truth is, money won’t come by itself. I’ve said countless times that Instagram is hard work, and it still stands true. If you really want to succeed, you will need to have one of three things:  

1. Time

 2. Money 

3. A large following  

This is very off-putting for a lot of people because most have none of the above - I know that feeling all too well. Spending a lot of time on something in the hopes that it will pay off later is a risk you have to take - BUT you really have nothing to lose and everything to gain. Money can speed up the process and scale it to new heights - IF you know what you’re doing. A large following is the result of either one of those factors - OR both put together. (It always is a combination of two or more)

The Best Strategy For Starting A Twitch Career

The Best Strategy For Starting A Twitch Career

When it comes to creating a brand through your persona it’s important to stay cool and relaxed. Show people how you are, talk to your audience, do some cool stuff, open mail/gifts, or do something else and just be yourself. You either become popular on Twitch by being entertaining or really good at a game. If you manage to do both you'll be big one day. Streaming is a great way to let people get to know you and to grow a passionate audience. If there are a lot of funny moments, your viewer base is more likely to create a highlight and send it to their friends. You profit from this as well since it’s now your turn to showcase this highlight on your channel. It’s all about content and being entertaining and trust me, every one is entertaining in some way, you just have to practice.

As I already mentioned, Twitch is mostly used by gamers and therefore gameplays are the most popular type of streams on there. You may have heard from streamers like Ninja who is now sponsored by Red Bull or huge trends like Fortnite - that just goes to show how powerful that platform can be. So if you’re passionate about video games and if you want to start your own Twitch career you should definitely go for it!


In this podcast, we'll go over the following topics:  

1. What to stream. 

2. Setting up your channel correctly. 

3. Ways to get recognized online. 

4. How to boost your viewership. 

5. Paid advertising. 

6. How to monetize your audience.

The 5 Most Effective Steps to Learn Any Language in 6 Months

The 5 Most Effective Steps to Learn Any Language in 6 Months

I have a question for you: How many languages do you speak? 

For lots of people reading this, the answer is more than one. Most people usually learn to speak a secondary language next to their native one either because they grow up in a multilingual household or because they learn it in school (for example: in Germany, it’s English from grade 3 onward, and a third language from grade 6).

For most native English speakers though, attempts at learning another language in school are in vain.   The good news on the other hand is that it’s never been easier to change that. See, learning languages in school is such a backward way of doing it because not only is it ineffective and slow but it also takes out all the fun of it and in turn makes it something boring. 

And I partly get why it’s done in such a way because everyone learns at a different pace, standardized tests and more reasons I won’t get into right now. But all of these factors are vaporized if you simply use the magic of the Internet to your advantage and turn learning a language into an adventure, not a chore.  

1. Find you WHY. 

2. Aim for the top 1.000. 

3. Glue everything together. 

4. Start to connect. 

5. Make mistakes.

The 5 Most Effective Lessons To Master Instagram In 2021 - Get 100 REAL Followers a Day with Gary Vee

The vast lands of the Internet have been conquered by a new generation: Instagram. You all know it. And if you don’t, here’s the gist: everyone’s happy, ”influencers” lurking around every corner, cute dogs are always welcome, it’s basically just the recycling bin of Twitter and TikTok, and-- Wait, no. That’s just one slice of a platform with over 1 BILLION monthly users...and it’s not going anywhere soon. 

Instagram isn’t only what I just listed - it’s one of the most popular, smartest and most advanced platforms out there and it has one huge bonus that most others don’t have: it’s owned by Facebook. And you don’t ever bet against Facebook.  Every one of you reading this has probably asked themselves the following question multiple times by now: How do these regular people manage to build a massive following and earn a fortune while you’re doing nothing different? 

From the outside, it seems pretty easy, right? Just take some cute pics of yourself, post them with some smart hashtags, promote the post in your story, keep on doing this for like 3 years and voilà, you’re jet-setting around the world and your whole life is a vacation...Actually, no. It’s much more than that.  

We tell you what you have to do in order to step up your game for 2021!

Top 5 Money management Rules - A Guide On How To Spend Your Income Wisely (Also During Quarantine)

Top 5 Money management Rules - A Guide On How To Spend Your Income Wisely (Also During Quarantine)

We at OuhSnap are constantly thinking about possible blog posts to write in order to help and be a source of guidance to young travelers, photographers, and entrepreneurs.

It doesn't matter if you are just playing with the thought of becoming independent, have already started running your business or if you make eight figures a year - money management is something we all have to pay attention to.

If you are making a good amount of money through your job, business, or investments you may face different problems and thoughts about money than someone who is earning a modest income as a student.

However, for each and every one the two main questions about money should be the same:

  1. How much money do I really need to live the life I want to pursue?
  2. How can I make my money work for me, instead of the other way around, so that I can enjoy a lot of free time?

It's not about how much money you earn. It's what you do with the money that matters.  From saving and living below your means to minimalism and investing. In this video, we cover the top 5 money management rules for individuals in every income bracket.

A Guide On How To Travel Southeast Asia On A Budget (Thailand, Vietnam & Cambodia)

A Guide On How To Travel Southeast Asia On A Budget (Thailand, Vietnam & Cambodia)

In 2017 I went backpacking in Southeast Asia, or to be more exact in Thailand, Cambodia and Vietnam for a little over a month. This was one of the most inspiring times of my life and in this video, I want to share some of the most mesmerizing experiences and what it costed.   Southeast Asia is a group of diverse countries between the Indian Ocean and the Pacific Ocean, featuring indigenous cultures influenced by Indian, Chinese and Western culture. It has long been a favorite corner of the world for globe-tramping backpackers, known for its perfect beaches, tasty cuisine and low prices. The region represents a totally different culture for Western travelers. Instead of cathedrals, they’ll find temples. Instead of cold temperatures in the winter, they’ll be bathed in a tropical climate. They may find simple accommodations in remote fishing villages but also luxurious hotels in the cities and on the islands.

Our Top 10 Books Recommendations + Honorable Mentions

Our Top 10 Books Recommendations + Honorable Mentions

In our first official YouTube video we feature our top 10 book recommendations for aspiring entrepreneurs or people looking for improvement in their lives in general. Our picks include mainly non fiction but we also included some fictional stories such as 'I am Legend' and 'The Alchemist'.  

 Jeff Bezos, founder of Amazon, explained that he likes to read a healthy mix of fiction and nonfiction, whereas he prefers thrillers and fantasy books over self improvement books for example.  

The books mentioned range from people looking for metaphorical treasures, lawyers who decided to live like Indian monks, apocalyptic scenarios all the way to some 'pure' guides about life. Some of the best self improvement books simply tell important life advice in every chapter and give examples in real life scenarios. This is really helpful when starting to feel lost in today's day and age.
