Yessss

If you’ve ever worried that your life is passing by too fast, this is the reason why. Most of your day feels like it passed in the blink of an eye because you forgot doing it, because you were autopiloting your daily routine. Be a rolling stone always, experience as many new things as possible. We only get one ride, after all.

Ted Talks meets National Geographic and they get stoned for a bit, make love, get married, buy a house, have a kid, both lose their jobs in the recession, they argue and divorce. Then that kid grows up and decides to make the world a better place.

Honestly a lot of filmmaking/philosophy people on social media rub me the wrong way, but i think the way you presented this, more as an educational show, than a youtube video, completely negates that almost pretentious feeling the other ones give me. I dont know why, but i love it so much

I think this is also highly related to why people think that time goes faster when one gets older. The older we become, the more we create routines for ourselves, paying less attention to our day-to-day experiences. Resulting in remembering less of those experiences and thinking that time is moving faster.

There is also the fact that as time passes, each passing second is a smaller percentage of our lives than it was when we were children. For example, having to wait a year for something when you are 5, is 1/5th of your entire life, which feels like a really long time. But nowadays, at 29, if I had to wait a year for something, it wouldn't feel like that long and would most likely come around pretty quick.

The CINEMATIC STUFF HERE is unbelievable, it really adds to your short message. It’s true, you remember the crazy and thrilling and hard inducing things in life. Anything mundane is just a means to get by. If anyone is thinking of doing something but is scared to leave the shell. Do it, it’s a calling.

Sometimes I stumble upon a treasure like this and think "Yeah, I'll sub to this, doesn't matter what's else on this channel"

Hero. Track added a lot to the vid. Thanks

the atmosphere in this video is amazing, in itself something novel and inspiring! wow the angles, the lanscapes, everythings is so beautifully shot and produces and the message is the cherry on top

I started writing a memoir, and I stopped because I couldn't retrieve the memories; well, maybe the one that changed my existence. I was locked out of the house when I was 11, and my parents were inside. I was crying heavily, thinking why they weren't letting me in. I came home late, "big deal," but it was a big deal to them. So they taught me a lesson after lesson. It still didn't sink in. I realize now the memory is there. We must search for it; like skipping a smooth, flat rock over a sound pond. It's like the ripple effect. One memory and then another and then another, and before you know you are 10 pages deep in a memoir. I have to admit: your telling of the ideas is compelling and functional for this space. It's what the world really needs. I have subscribed. I like the tree episode because, as someone who is from Vancouver Island, I have to say trees are empirical for all.

Great story thanks for sharing

The shots, the advice, the quotes, music, and edits are perfect man. Kudos for great content. Glad the algorithm worked for something ive always wondered about.

This video flows well. The economy of speech and pacing of scenes is pleasurable. The audio and visual cues are harmonious. There are marks of attention-to-detail and deliberation is all over this thing. Well done.

The 1 hour job commute you will spend 5000 hours of your life doing will, ultimately, occupy 1 hours worth of memory in your mind.

You're a freaking talented film maker, this will blow up fast! Not only skilled in cinematography, but what charisma and writing! You have style my friend, power to you

This is genuinely one of if not the most beautiful video ive ever seen on this website, just jaw dropping cinematography and music choice, thank you for making this

the writing, color, composition, and editing are all amazing. almost distracts from how solid the content is. I really hope your channel blows up!

I always think about this exact thing! I have recently started doing at least one new and unique thing every day to escape monotony and regularity in life and written those things down by date. Its awesome because you learn to remember the awesome stuff every day had in store for you and improve your memory. You also have a really great overview of what you were doing recently. Recommend it to anyone!

i saw this video in my feed 2 weeks after it came out, it took me almost 2 months after it came out to remember to actually watch it. i'm going to try some of your recommendations to help improve my memory. thank you for such an incredible video

I havent been so sucked into a video on youtube for a loong time! The fast pace "moving forward" music, the relaxed but focused voiceover in a pretty abnormal "far away" shot completely takes the world around me away and i just watch. Half through the video I get used to it and I got bored, would have been nice with some bigger contrast of some sort - to keep my mind occupied and intrigued. Great great video!

Still it doesn't explain how to fix a terrible memory. It explains how to make life feel less like a chore and time not fly by so quickly

Great shots, amazing colour grading and narrative. And with an even better message and tache, your videos are amazing. Hope you’re having a great day Justin.

WOW this was awesome, the music, the shots, the drawing, THANK YOU made my whole day
