Alright everyone! After taking a break for most of the summer, I will start uploading every week for the rest of the year! Comment your video requests and ideas below!
Apart from the US, which regions do you think are interesting to invest into in the stock exchange?
I really want to know about the tech you use daily.
@Jeroen De Bruyne The lady recommended on this comment section is awesome, i mean Alicia j Bransford I just tried her 2 days ago , she’s good
Lets goooooooooooooo
No wonder I didn’t see you much I’m the algorithm – now notifications are on 👀
Great advice. 7:28 🐿 in the tree. So easily distracted 🙄
0:47 my entire life changed thanks to, *p a i d t o b e h o m e .c o m*
What is the plugin you use for the titles in this video?
Honestly Nate, every video you make inspires me to work harder, smarter, and gives me the energy I need!
I’ve been looking for more financial freedom, been looking to minimalise, been looking to budget my spendings, …. all because of you.
You’ve inspired me to start a Youtube channel, which I’ve been thinking about for a while now, but I’ve been procrastinating. Any idea/video/book how to help me with that? (Or maybe an idea for your next video)
A lot of what happens on Youtube doesn’t get the recognition that it deserves. You deserve recognition. Thank you for everything.
Btw, I love the squirrel in the background hanging in the tree.
I AM from India where are you from?
Great as always! It is actually easier to work harder which is why a lot of us fall in that trap. Taking the time to think about your business and how to expand it requires honesty and change. Thank you for the motivation boost!
Hey Nate, great video! You’re one of the top youtubers for me.
Can I ask, where does that “95/5%” rule come from? Just curious, heard Alex Becker saying the same thing couple days ago…
You are a great youtuber
Just in TIME
This is what I need to continue on mi way 🔥🔥🔥
Thanksss
O Brien
Lacking purpose is a good one. It really kills your drive and you question a lot of the stumbles along the way.
Super important!
Thanks for making this one.
Please help someone, I want to learn to invest, but I don’t know where to start
You like making VIDEO and I like watching what you have say daily (ON POINT)💓 vibes
Can you make a video about how specifically you worked smarter instead of just harder on your YouTube channel? I have a small YouTube channel (not this account) that I feel like I’ve put a lot of work into but haven’t seen a lot of growth. Obviously it’s not all about views, but it’s exhausting making videos for very few people and fell like I’m making no progress. Thanks!!
Do not agree on the Obama point sorry. Not going into any details but you know what I am saying.
Could you please put English subtitles ??
I’m a English learner and don’t have enough skill
I can definitely relate. Work smarter than harder
Something that always stuck with me is action takers vs. action talkers, we must hold ourselves accountable. Why do we show up for others more than ourselves?
Thank you for this… Always when I watch your videos, I feel ashamed 😅😶 because I have similar age like you and still can’t find goals for my life.. However, if I should say what motivates me to work on myself is that I realise that every day can be my last (unfortunately, nobody knows it) and it would be a pity don’t do anything meaningful till that time..
I’m not a native speaker soo I hope it makes sense.
Nate, you continue to impress!
Keep Smiling, all!
O’Brien,what do you think about work-life balance ?
They say hard work pays off so are you saying I need to be smart to make progress but not work hard or am I supposed work hard at not working hard? Or am I supposed to work hard at working smart? Or am I thinking too much about this.. uh oh I think I’m working smart
How you kind of change the sofas behind you. Do you really buy them or its editing? 😊
Repetition makes life boring and too predictable. Some people in those time lose a little bit of motivation. Great video , liked and subbed 👍
Love the new cinematic direction and overall theme here. And I definitely agree on how critical it is to shake things up if you want to reach new levels.
Excited for the next ones Nate! 🔥
YOU NEED TO DO A FULL ON VIDEO ON START ENGINE AND WHAT ITS ABOUT I THINK THAT WOULD BE HEPFUL FOR A LOT OF US. Thanks!
5:50 squirell?
That’s the thing, you can get motivated but staying on track is difficult 🔥
I couldn’t have heard this at a better time.
00:00 anybody noticed that there’s a hole in Nate’s shoe? lol
Sum up : HOW to keep motivation (for those who don’t have 8 min to watch)
1 : You need to SEE YOUR PROGRESS (make it accountable) but first make sure that you work SMARTER than Harder
2 : Set REALISTIC GOALS not too big not too small (those you really think and feel that is possible to achieve)
3 : Find your LEVERAGE, What DRIVES you ? It need to be bigger than just you and your personal disire.
I would like to personally add that finding a MENTOR, someone who represent for you a SOURCE OF MOTIVATION is so helpful.
When I feel lost or demotivated I just watch or read Contend made by persons who inspire me. As soon as I hear their voice my motivation instantly get back ! For me it’s Tony Robbins, Nick Santonastasso, John Lynskey and Nate of curse !!
Thank you
I just love listening to you. Thank you for the new video, Nate!
Nice Video, thanks for Sharing Nate. I love your Videos!
Great video, even the squirrel in the window 5:48 got interested
The difference between those who succeed and those who don’t comes down to how they react to boredom.
Nate, I watched your videos about food and groceries. In the comment section of your last one “How To Live On $30 A Week” you said “As my income has increased, I have chosen to expand my food budget to $50+ per week so that I can choose more sustainable, healthier food options.” I wanted to ask you have you thought about a video updating what you’ve done with your food budget? Or maybe even expanding a little more? I am wanting to eat a lot healthier now and I know it can get expensive. I am an older guy, in my 40s, but i’ve recently started making changes in my life, like getting my finances straight, drinking water on daily basis and trying to eat better. The videos you produce have been a big motivation in that, so thank you!
Dude that was a bad ass video! Solid, practical, inspirational. Thank you so much Nate
How plan out and organise a project please 🙂 i have lots of idea but i m all over the place and rubbish out organising myself 🤪🙏🏻
Drop a like if you saw a squirel on the tree too 05:49
Thank you
Hello there
Nate O’Brien, I like your video very much. I hope you can make a video for me and post it.
Hope I can receive your reply.
Shock/ change your routine when you lose motivation 😉.
Cuz doing the same thing make your brain 🧠 not working and not creative.
A squirrel at 5:51! Great video btw
It’s called: you need a vacation.
Hi you🙂
Nate, great video and btw can you see the animal in the background in your tree 😉 just funny 😉
Keep moving forward to reach goals. I believe it’s all about being intentional!!
How would you focus on working out if the only reason to do it is to have a better chance to find a lover, this isn’t greater then yourself. Should I think about the future lover and what they will get and work myself to that person FOR this future person?
Please don’t change man. You’re honest and you’re actually trying to help us become successful. You just earn my sub 🤝
Very uplifting, thank you.
Hi man!
You invest money in REIT’s? or Just stocks?
Haven’t watched the video but I’m leaving a comment first! XD
Love this!!! You mentioned working harder not smarter early on in your youtube channel, can I ask what strategies you used to grow your channel? I’m hoping to start my own but want to go about it as strategically as possible.
great video nate! super inspiring.
Thank you nate another great video. You are a real inspiration to all young people. I wish I was as knowledgeable as you when I was your age keep up your amazing content and thanks again .
Would you say the same thing about Trump?
I love your videos. Lots of good information plus motivation for my every day life.
Love this style of video. Keep em coming Nate 🙂 everything sounds better when it is coming from the heart and not a script. I can tell you have gone through things and actually had experience with this heavily.
The best! Like from Russia!
Resume of the video:
Keep Determinated
Estabilish goals
Be Displaneted
President Trump is a better example of the last point you made 😁👍
I’m finishing my thesis right now and lost motivation in the middle of the research process. Thank you for the video, Nate. I’m gonna set more realistic goals and start it all over again. 👍
agree! it is better to do something little by little, but regularly, than a lot at once. or motivation goes away when there is no person nearby who will always support you and say the right words. how you are, for example, through the screen🤩
Right on time. Thanks, Nate!
Remind yourself of YOUR WHY daily and you will never run out of motivation
I’ve had a dip in motivation on YouTube for the last few weeks; I’ve been getting past it largely by taking a break, and letting my systems work for me. Because I was ahead of schedule for releases, I bought myself the time needed to recharge and now I’m going hard, similar to you in uploading every week for the rest of the year. It’s no big deal as long as you keep playing the long game!
Great video! Thanks for your tips!
The secret formula for POSITIVISM is love as a principal, order as a foundation and progress as a goal!
And love is what this world needs so STAY POSITIVE! 💞
U speak w so much zen
Squirl at 5:48? lol
squirrel at 5:50
Good advice!
Im so sick of Elon Musk getting put on a pedestal. He bought Tesla from the people who founded it and made them sign that title away, so he could pretend he built it from the ground up. He’s just a rich, selfish geek who likes his toys more than people.
I find out everyone out of this topic.. YOU are the BEST EVER .
Great vedio Nate good attitude is really important …love from india
Great video! What camera and audio gear is this video made with?
6
5:47 a squirrel jumped into the frame. So cute.
Jeremy from “Financial Education” mentioned you in his last video. I think this will give you a lot of traffic coming your way.
“Work smarter, not harder.”
Appreciate this video. I think it’ll help🤩
Love your videos..
Just watched one of your videos for the first time ( 11 unique side hustles for 2020). I thought your video gonna be like most of these people who are on youtube and say do surveys and all those non-sense stuff, but I watched your video until the end. Keep up with great work.
Been struggling with this a ton recently! Thanks Nate! 🙌🏼
Great man at early age👍👍
5:58 THE SQUIRREL
Love this new style of video. Cool that you’re not boxed into being a finance youtuber but exploring new paths!
Is that a squirrel climbing the tree behind you at 5:48? 😆 And another totally off topic note (sorry). Nate, have you tried playing the piano or swimming? Because you seem to have very long fingers and hands, you could do well in piano or swimming.
Back to the topic, thanks for this video, your tips are very simple but very right, too! And you have very good speaking skills. I’m a foreigner, I’ve learnt English at school and I haven’t practised it much since then, but I can easily catch and comprehend every word you say.
I love your intelligence and thought clarity. I am glad to have found your channel. Greetings from Germany.
Nate just put Motivational channels outta business – with realism 👌
thanks nate, very helpful, i liked alot your 30-40% rule (when you only accomplish those maximum) thanks.
@5:47 That looked like a huge squirrel.
I honestly believe that purpose is the most important, it what keeps us going when times are hard. Also, it matters how what we do makes us feel and what gives us back, if it fulfills us.
You are great! Thank you to comment on Andrew his youtube. Glad to know you!
This is stupid
