Casey neistat "The Future of Daily Vlogs"

Casey is a filmmaker and blogger who currently resides in New York City. He is loved by million of fans for his DIY approach to filmmaking and some of the most creative content on Youtube. One such was an ad he did with nike.

All of Casey’s vlogs are inspiring and creatively created, and I’ve never seen anyone make a daily 8 minute vlog and still manage to keep the content fresh and entertaining. But I personally love his larger than life personality and his perspective on how to live life feeling fulfilled.

 

He often likes to say “if your doing what everone else is doing , ur doing it wrong”

You see, when you grow up you tend to get told that the world is the way it is and your life is just to live your life inside the world, try not to bash into the walls too much, try to have a nice family and also save a little money here and there but life is limited and life can be so much more broader once you realise one simple fact and that is everything around you that you call life was made up by people that were no smarter than you.

“If you have big things you want to do in life, or even little things for that matter, the time to take action on them will always be right now.”

                    life explained in 27 seconds:

 

Here are some of the few things I learnt from him:

* Want to know how to get yourself out of a rut? Work.

The times when I’m in a rut are usually due to the fact I haven’t been able to motivate myself to work or be productive.

When I do? I feel better.

The more you work, the more you create, the more you progress – the better you feel. Pretty simple, actually.

 

* The best way to find what you love in life, is by doing something that you hate

I’m gonna let you figure this out, You see living your life has two major steps

1.       finding something that you love and something that makes you happy(this is the hardest of the 2 steps)

2.       figure out how your’re gonna work in your life doing the thing that you love surrounded with the people you love.

* Don’t stagnate. Do something. Do anything, and adjust on the fly.

Instead of looking at your whole life lets take the example of a just one day, when was the last time this week that you really felt happy and satisfied with your day before going to bed. I will bet a million to say, that particular day that you feel so happy about was because you were productive in it,you did something, you learnt something new, you finally completed something you’ve always wanted to do.

* Why it’s never ok to complain: there is always someone who has it worse than you do

Sure we all complain about small things from time to time, but to be honest, I live an extraordinarily blessed life.

I really have no right to complain about anything.

There will always be annoyances or frustrations, some minor, some major – but the reality is, I’ve got it better than the vast majority of people in the world.

And if you’re reading this? You probably do too.

Keep that in perspective next time you’re complaining about the traffic, the weather, or how tired you’re feeling.

 

when you’re a kid you’re never afraid to dream, you dream of becoming a pilot , a doctor or even a president. You don’t burden yourself, questioning the possibility of it but as you grow up you’re told that your dreams are too crazy and that what you truly want is unachievable and that you should be realistic……they are wrong!!!

what is your crazy dream and what are you gonna do today to get one step closer to it
