Have you ever tracked every minute of your day? It's an eye-opening experiment.
I got tired of always wondering where all of my time went at the end of every day, so I did this for a full week and I was blown away with the results.
Here's a link to the book that I mentioned in the video (The Compound Effect by Darren Hardy)*: geni.us/SkNS1i

RUclips algorithm needs to be better at giving hard working youtubers the views and subscribers they deserve.
Worldwide Countdown LIVE I’m glad I found this channel; he’s great and I’m digging his style/demeanor.
YT algorithm sent me here ;)
lakshay sethi likes don’t do anything. All RUclips cares about is watch time.
Sadly that makes less money for RUclips so that won’t be happening
smart working people will always be one step ahead and get the W. Remember that.
"What gets measured gets managed." I like this concept
María Clara Yeah it is good if personal and well thought it can be over applied though, like it’s done in Amazon’s warehouses where toilet time is managed so employees don’t go there more than x minutes per day. I mean come on
@@leonardneuville1792 Yea. The exact opposite of freedom. Why make yourself a prisoner?
Why are your videos always so freaking relatable and spot-on?
Antonio Sini check out matt d’avella
The quality of your videos is so incredible, you deserve a larger audience. I’m excited to see more people discover your videos in the near future! Keep up the great work 🙌🏼
Man, your comment was really nice to read. Thank you for being a part of this community!
Are those paintings yours?
It's 2024 and this helped me, thanks Nathaniel!!
Glad that the youtube algorithm recommend your video.
Thank you!
I would hate to see my RUclips pie graph.
That would actually be pretty damn useful. Maybe I would finally see how much time I waste in here.
That would feel like an overweight person standing on a scale for the first time😂
Mine would be terrible. I tab a heap of videos when I start, and then just watch them all. I even open new tabs for videos that I want to watch from the recommended videos on each of the other tabs. So many hours...
me too 😂😂
cincyfan987 bro I’ve been watching like 2 years worth of videos on youtube,do you know what I could’ve done with that time??!
Your videos are almost *poetic* and perfect mixure of *hot and cold* , *simple* and *pleasurable* keep it up 👌
Jfc the moment I saw your "striped T-shirt" timetables, I realized just how much of a problem this is for me. I haven't been able to calmly box my time and focus on one particular activity without distractions and doing a million other things at the same time in ages. I have reduced my overall stress and confusion thanks to bullet journaling etc, but setting apart a few hours of my time to do one thing seems like a luxury, yet it's something that's absolutely necessary if I want to actually get things done!
Thank you so much for your beautiful content and the amazing maturity you share with us (we're exactly the same age, and though I'm asking myself the same sorts of questions you are at this point in my life, I feel like you're light years ahead when it comes to knowing what you want in life and living consciously!). I'm considering joining Instagram just to be able to participate in your live sessions :)
Wow. I've seen someone illustrate my dream once again of creating art with my life... wow. I'm having a visceral reaction to these videos. Plus Matt D'Avella's videos. Makes me feel less alone in my pursuits of personal growth... Thank you, Nathanial Drew, for re-inspiring an old hobby of mine.
Your videos are really well made! But i felt kinda like you cut the video a bit short maybe.. i would love to see what each day was like, how you felt etc. But anyways, it was a really good video!
I appreciate the feedback. I was afraid of making the video too long/boring but I'll try to give more of an inside look into things moving forward. Regardless, thanks for watching!
Nathaniel Drew Great video, but I agree on this point also - only because writing “...for 7 days” in the title sets the expectation for the video to SHOW those 7 days. If you re-title I’m sure newer viewers won’t be alarmed by the length of video :o
@@nathanieldrew You were trying to save US time ;) Appreciated!
Same! I agree
1:55 I have never thought to fold my jeans in THEN up like that
Yeah, I'll do it only that way now and it looks so much cleaner and better
isnt it i stopped the video and went wow
In the 80’s this was called tight rolling your jeans and everyone did it, then of course the next school year it was uncool to do it and everyone got made fun of for doing it.
myfavorite80s.blogspot.com/2007/10/how-to-tight-roll-your-pants-80s-style.html
Derek Daniels so funny you mentioned this, brought back a memory from high school. I always cuffed my pants & one day I was complaining about my ankles being too scrawny even for skinny jeans so my teacher was like let me change your life and showed me how to do this and told me it was cool when he was young in the 80s 😂 he was the coolest teacher always teaching us everything but math 😂
@@bambinuhhh u still wear them like this? 🤣
1:54 that trick blew my mind
I'm impressed with the little amount of time that you spend on social media :)
Your channel has been so helpful to me. I love how straightforward, easy to understand, and entertaining your videos are. Thank you for that.
props man, i have been sitting here (not managing my time) binging your videos and so much power to you! your content is so well made, classy and respectable. keep on man
Amazing video. You’re so insightful! I can totally see your channel blowing up - keep it up!!
I just realised, the amount of time I spend scrolling through the comments of a RUclips video is comparable to the duration of the video itself. This is embarrassing because it was something I kept doing without even realising. Only when I came to the comments section after watching this video did I notice my habit. Thanks Nathaniel for helping me be more aware of my actions before I can even give time tracking a shot!
you're honestly the best
So glad I found you through the RUclips algorithm. Keep up the good work and high quality videos. I will continue watching!
So glad this was recommended to me! Great job, Nathaniel.
Your content is much better than the clickbait-sounding titles made me expect. Keep it up!
I really like the fact that watching you makes me just feel happy?? You don't give me a sense of pressure or judgement but I still feel encouraged to make more out of my life by just watching you do it.
Great video. I'm going to get started on this ASAP. Cool to see you're in Mexico City. We've been living in Mexico for the past couple of months and love it. Such a beautiful country.
Eco Clean Queen Jesus loves you.
Loved this video, Nathaniel! I'm loving the new little details such as the funny intro, pictures of the books your reading, and the questions your asking, it's so good!
Thank you! I'm trying to keep evolving as a creator, so expect more experimentation with the format.
I'm really happy to find your channel, the content quality is amazing! keep up the good work:)
I just recently discovered your channel and instantly fell in love with your content, we need these videos , and soon more people will be in dire need of it.
Yeah, you know the truth is I started making these videos because this is what I want to see more of out in the world. It really makes me happy that you're enjoying my work, thank you!
@@nathanieldrew you're welcome :), hope we will meet someday.
You're my new source for inspiring me to better myself. Thanks for the content and love the music you used in the video. Keep it up!
You are my new favorite RUclips personality, sir! :-) Thanks, and I love your videos!!
Great work, love these bite-sized nuggets of wisdom you are dropping consistently here. Keep it up! Maybe add "water my plant" to your calendar (@ 5:56) 😆🌴
Lmao I know, I really missed that one!
It's nice seeing a video that is using the same app I started using! Amazing video!
Love the meticulous story telling techniques you use to share your message!
Thank you man, I really appreciate that.
Nathaniel, you are blowing my mind with the stuff you are putting out. Also it personally feels quite comforting knowing that I am not the only one going through the things that most people seem to be
battling . And what’s even better is that you brake it down to point out that there are simple countless steps that can be taken towards daily improvement. Again, great work and keep the brilliance coming. ✌🏻
Thank you Abigail!
I like your videos, man! I started watching and subscribing from your Matt D' Avella review that you did!
The amount of light in your videos is amazing!!! Love it ❤❤❤
really enjoyed this video - really good quality content. 👍🏽
Just find your channel and I’m very impressed! Wish you a lot of inspiration for future videos🌟 Thank you for your work!
Finally, RUclips recommended to me a great Video So Glad That I have found You
Love it brother! Watched this while eating a slice of pizza (you know how problematic trying to do that while editing can be). I find time stacking (doing multiple things that complement each other) is a great way to accomplish more in a day. Obviously you don't want to seep into the realm unfocused multi-tasking. I usually pair one conscious activity with one subconscious one. Like learning Japanese while cooking (what I've been doing lately to prep for my upcoming journey).
I too have been tracking my time! Though I've been keeping a time diary with old fashioned paper. It seems like I may have to reconsider that now because the data analytics on an app like that seem really valuable.
Anyway, back to editing. Cheers and thank you for putting such quality work out into the world!
Nice, I love that, I'll have to try that technique out. That being said I find multitasking generally very unproductive (for me) and may make a video on that.
Thanks for watching my work and I hope you have a great trip!
I love your videos. You are big inspiration for me. Just keeping making great videos ❤
Things
look great in everything! you look amazing in all your great video!!!
I like to way you talk to people and the contents are so useful.
I like you a lot, love your videos by the way, so happy to see you are in Mexico and thank for showing a different perspective. Good look with your projects!!
WOW AMAZING & SUPER EYE OPENING thank you so much great video & content!
great man here to save your valuable time ! lets start work on it
Best wishes everyone!
I like the way you discover your life... Really, it's helpful for me...💜
Been watching your vids for awhile, got a feeling you’ll go viral. :)
I just found your videos, and I’m sad I hadn’t seen them earlierrrrr!!!
Great video! Efforts speak for the quality views and subscribers on your channel!!
Nice vid, bro. Your channel is awesome. Matt D'Avella feelings. Keep doing it!
I like everything about your videoes the concept, theme, topics are great.
I reccorded a journal for the beginning of 2019 Jan 1st till today April 12 2019.
It sounds weird but i did it without any expectations just wanted to experience life in my eyes for once. I realize that every day i live is worth more than everything i have left. I kept reccords of what i did my thoughts and feelings to what i was doing, concrete actual plans for the future and reinforced my entries with new learned experiences and interesting finds to remember that day. I also made a lot of affirmations and gratitude was poured all around.
It has helped me get in touch with a side of myself only i will ever share and embrace. Some things in life are left unspoken for only the i (eye) to see.
I even did some dream reccording and i hope after a long wxtensive period i can later look back and compare entries to contrast as well between my experience as a conscious person and as well through my subconscious. Maybe even add an astral projection journal. As well as that, i can maybe reccord how my thought and mind think and operate just to understand myself more so i can learn and unlock more of myself.
We are all truly powerful beings! Peace!
Great video. It's easy to get serious making a video like this but I think adding a little comedy and humor would make it even more fun and watchable. Your videos are still very informative and fun to watch though.
I actually tried to incorporate a couple of funny moments in here but I can definitely try to do more of that. Thanks for the feedback
Love your stuff broo
Awesome video! Makes me want to track my life
Very helpful channel ..thank you for your effort🏆 keep it up💪🏼
Amazing quality, i love your video
Thank you!!
Been watching your videos the past few days to week. Great work and great filming quality. What do you use for you equipment?
I absolutely love your videos, thank you for your existence
Me encantan los enfoques de tu canal. Los temas y proyectos son super interesantes! Felicitaciones! Saludos desde Argentina!!
Awesome content! I love your videos :)
Lol thank u for this video!! New subscriber! Today I wanted to stop and jump to other things but this vid stuck to my mind and helped me stay focused on my tasks! Thank u beautiful stranger man ❤️
Getting the right contents and eye for details is very hard to find it nowadays, but you're spot on. Except for that coffee man, you should work on it :) Thanks for good vibes!
This channel is going to blow up in no time
🤞🏼
very inspiring I am glad RUclips recommend your channel to me
dude just want to say. You are in the right direction! keep up the good work!
Thank you Samir, I appreciate that :D
Hey there. I love your videos. They really gave an impact on me and now I'm trying to change my life more too. Quick question, what watch are you using in the thumbnail??
I struggle to manage my time. This video really helped me. 👍😀😊Thanks
could you truly live in the moment, if you are measuring the moment? could you be in a state of flow and also measure it at the same time?
This feels so good, I really need to get started again and motivate me !!!!!
i'm practicing the same thing this months.
greatest help i came across: use time in pre-dedicated blocks, each for a single task, the bigger the blocks the better.
Nice content as always in your channel
Excellent video 👏🏼
Thanks!
I've literally been thinking of tracking my time as I WFH a lot and hoping to hear a "ping" whenever it is time to move onto another task and I just come across this video and you provide me with an app in the first 30 sec that do exactly that! Subscribed! How stupid am I, I didn't even think about checking the app store for it. haha.
I tried tracking my time with an app like this, but I found it to be incredibly distracting. Every time I made an entry, even though it's just clicking one button, it immediately broke my flow.
That's my concern too 😕
There are ways that you can do it automatically. So if you open Google Maps on your phone, it starts a transit timer. If you open RUclips, it starts the “Watching RUclips” timer. You’ll still occasionally have to start the timer manually, but a lot of it can be automated.
@@maple_fields Well that covers using your phone, but tracking real-life activities is much harder to automate
@@GrzegorzPalian But thats kind of the idea, right? You get more aware for the moments where you decide what to do next or what has to be done.
You are you, and it looks like you were having fun. Also it seems you were focusing on trying to enjoy everything more. 😊
good video of really good I really appreciate you making it it's great for me now that I'm living by myself to be inspired by people like you keep making great content
Loving your channel with each new video. Curious, which city are you in?
Rock on. I live in Mexico City now.
Content d'avoir découvert cette chaîne aujourd'hui. Bravo ! Je suivrai cela de près ;)
Trop bien! Merci beaucoup.
Nathaniel reminds all of us that we have been wasting hours and hours every day for many years..everybody knows that productivity is key to reaching goals..but sometimes it feels like(as he perfectly said)we don’t have enough time and we cannot get things done...all I can say is keep trying and keep going guys..greetings from Italy Nathaniel..I always appreciate your videos..
Best channel ever !!👍👍
Hi Nathaniel ! Your video editing skills are amazing. Do you do this yourself? Have you studied film making?
Your videos are incredibly beautiful and well-made!!! I hope it's not insulting to compare you to another person, but your style reminds me a bit of Matt D'Avella.
hey nathaniel, awesome video!
quick question: what brand/model is your watch?
keep it up!
I bought it from H&M :)
Great quality content!
Thank you!
4:44 "I get antsy sometimes" **cuts to b-roll of Nathaniel making coffee** 😂Great video, as usual!
Really love your vids
im so happy i found your channel - i feel i can really relate. however i defs cringed at how light the coffee from your moka pot was at 4:53 😂
Yeah I feel you. That was bad. It has been corrected.
@@nathanieldrew hahaha drink it how you like it man. from one filmmaker to another, keep up the inspiring work 👊
Your content is amazing.
I would recommend the book the 7 habits of highly effective people. I think you would really enjoy it. I just finished it yesterday and am incorporating a lot of it into my own life.
What an astounding place you live in. I instantaneously wished to get there after seeing your walk to the supermarket.
I discovered you two days ago and what someone said is true, your video's are refreshing and can be a happy place, so when are you going to do a video on psychedelics 😊
Thanks. Not for a while. There's a lot of ground I want to cover before I get there.
Wow I would never thought you were in Mexico! I'll do this once my new cellphone arrives!
All your videos are a wake up call for me.
Wow great channel.New subscriber!
Hello Nathan! I have just begun to follow you, and seen some of your vids, in spanish and english, and I am surprised of the diferent tone between your two channels. I don't speak french as well as english but I'll watch some, but it seems that in english you are another person, so serious you are. Anyway, this one is very interesting, full of meaning, deep and even confessional, I would say. And also your short videos, like Energy, very beautifull. Wonderfull images. Oh, by the way I'm from La Plata, Argentina.
Thanks for the message! I have changed a lot since I created my videos in Spanish and have come to prefer honesty and depth over trying to be high energy and positive all the time, so that might explain things. I also think Spanish is more upbeat and alegre so maybe that's it. Anyway, thanks for watching!
How tf does a high quality vid like this not have at least 100,000 views
Great video
I tried tracking my time and I failed, I'm just way to ignorant about it. But after watching this video I think I'm going to try that again.
Thanks Nathaniel... Your videos really inspire me.
holy shit this channel is gold!
damn you give me Matt D' Avela vibes and im lovin it ( also thank you youtube algorithm for reccomending me this )
