- THE NARCISSIST: I’m on the verge of RUclips burnout, caught in the wicked world of shoot, make, upload, repeat. It’s a good life, and this ain’t a grizzle, no, it’s more of a reflection of how I’ve been sucked into the belief that more is better and consistency is king. I’m sure this can be the case, but it sucks to live by it. And I haven’t fished in too long, and I like fishing. I’m patient when I fish. In fact it’s one of the only places I’m happy to wait.
Today is a day of attention restoration. Listening to my wandering mind. Paying attention to how and where a fish might be. And trying to do as much as I can while doing as little as possible.

Wow, who would have thought that prick of a bloke was actually some sort of divine messenger 🤣
Really enjoyed this. In fact I feel like 10 years of knowledge was just beamed straight into my noggin. We must find the time to appreciate the simple things in life.
Just even the thought of you two making a overland walking video together makes me excited, please make it happen 😂
you two NEED to a do a mission together one day that would be MAD

The goat has arrived in the comments
It fills my heart to see you here Tom ❤
"I'm just a Fisherman" to anyone else that would just be a funny comeback but I know for Beau that probably felt like a stab to the heart.
Can see it in his face. Absolutely ruined him.
What do you mean?
that's exactly what i thought
hard to explain why though
but beau, you're just a fisherman to us
It stung but he made good use of it
Beau is making a video about slowing down and just fishing, however, slowing down and ‘just being a fisherman’ is at odds with him making the video. So he struggles with the duality of both
Your comments reminded me of something Thomas Merton once wrote:
When an archer is shooting for nothing
He has all his skill.
If he shoots for a brass buckle
He is already nervous.
If he shoots for a prize of gold
He goes blind
Or sees two targets -
He is out of his mind.
His skill has not changed, But the prize
Divides him. He cares,
He thinks more of winning
Than of shooting -
And the need to win
Drains him of power.
Gareth, thank you for sharing this gold nugget of wisdom. Very timely. Good on ya
Nice poem, very "in tune" with what is being said in this video.
love this Gareth
You've misattributed the quote. It is by a Chinese Warring States Philosopher named Zhuangzi. pg 112 of the burton watson translation of the work named after himself. Its a good quote which is how i know haha
@@thesuperjohn57 Thank you. I first encountered it in a book by Thomas Merton. I am happy to accept that he borrowed it from Chinese wisdom.
Strange, I was standing on the jetty that day, my partner is in the quick glimpse of a small yacht. I watched you and thought he must be a dedicated RUclips channel. Had no idea it was you Beau (saved you time and distraction as I’d of loved a yarn) I’ve watched you since early days and yep, seen a change in your character, culture, way of doing things…this vlog confirms simply to take your own advice…you’ve got this mate👍
Where is this ?
Was this Blue Rock?
Thanks James. Happy Blue-rocking mate.
Turning a hobby into a paying job is a tough call and your introspection and honesty are unusual in this medium. Love it!
Turning a hobby into a job at the risk of ruining the hobby. Working a job that you have no interest in at the expense of having passion/purpose/fun. I’m not sure which is better. Perhaps somewhere in between.
Beau, in 2017 you said ‘People never really understand
themselves or the world…but in working through
misunderstandings over time they better conceive of themselves within the bigger picture’. Your work (and your PhD, which is where this quote comes from) continue to inspire me, and everyone here! Have at it mate! 🤩
Gee
Right on brother🤘
I've downloaded his PhD, haven't read it yet though. Can't seem to find time!
I'm up to page 28. It's dense. It's like shifting through a bucket of pearls for the nuggets of gold!
@@christofs-a1834 You guys are nuts. Love it.
You’re all good Beau! We’ve all witnessed your humility. I think I can speak for all your subscribers by saying:
“Your videos are always worth the wait. Take your time and upload when you’re ready.”
Love and respect✌️
"look at this beautiful ginger creature"
i AM looking
oh, you mean the fox
🤔
I saw the fox immediatly. Thinking "what a nice fox", then he said it.
😂 He is quite beautiful, and the fox ain't bad either.
“Need to Sharpen up my RUclips Game”- most of us watch because it isn’t slick or sharp, it’s a sense of true reality as if we were participating. For most of us an opportunity for escapism riding on your shoulders.
So keep on doing what you do we don’t know if each film is pensive, thoughtful, challenging or just a bloke doing stuff that’s the draw
It must be difficult not to evolve as you want, but as a viewer your videos leave an impression on me more than any other on RUclips, I normally watch videos and look for entertainment but that's all there is to it. These make me introspect and think.
Props to you
Same here, also has driven more action out of myself. Less passive living and more engaging with life, its great!
"Get over yourself, mate. You're OK."
This right here, but only when you've done what you've done. Taken time, reflected, assessed what's what, and gained some context. You do amazing work Beau.
Good onya mate. You're OK.
This is what its all about! I love all your films but I really resonated with this one as share a lot of the same creative struggles. I love how you were able to reflect and transmute all these thoughts into a cohesive beautiful piece of art.
"oh that minty lip balm is good, feel like im making out with an exotic somebody" - you are such an amazing person beau but don't overwhelm yourself if you need a break, take it!!
Would have accepted
- snowman
- Exotic star trek alien
- yeti
This made me realize I need to start making a list of Beau's quotes. Not that many videos or creators make me laugh from the bottom of my heart.
For a split second I was like, "who the f*ck is this beau and why is he messaging me talking rubbish?" 😂😂😂
I just did the same!
Haha yeah me too 🤣🤣
me too me too
@@moneymayhem2000 You guys saw a notification on your phone for the vid or what?
@@daskes123 correct sir 👌
I hear you Beau! Thanks for the reset!
As a subscriber since the marathon in 24 hours video, This is still my favorite RUclips channel that I watch. So make em how you like em, and as often as feels OK. The viewers who matter will be here for you.
"get over yourself mate, you're okay" seems like a respectable first tattoo. loved the vid man. real as it gets
What about third? Gonna do it
That shot, hearing the birds, the water lapping and a hint of breeze through the leaves. A solid reminder we adults need those moments, without a device, to anchor our guts back to the place we call home and how it was before distraction took over. Like RUclips 😉 great vid Beau, genuine happiness when an upload is live.
This is among my favorite of all your videos so far. Likely because it speaks to relatable challenges in life, in an honest and creative way. Meanwhile, like all your videos, it gets the wheels turning and drives inspiration.
Mate as Fishing RUclipsr the Irony and timing of this videos is unreal. Thanks a heap Beau.
Go for it trout...
"Slower with Uploads" - Welcome to my world!
Beau, your candid reflection in 'Get Over Yourself' really resonates. The way you equate the relentless cycle of content creation to a fisherman's day out-aiming not just to catch fish, but to enjoy the solitude and process-strikes a powerful chord. It's a poignant reminder of the importance of balancing our ambitions with our well-being. Much like the Australian red fox, you find yourself in an environment you've adapted to thrive in, yet the pressures are ever-present. Here’s to finding more of those peaceful moments by the water, where the real catch isn't fish, but a bit of tranquility and self-acceptance. Keep navigating these waters, Beau, your journey helps all of us reflect on our own.
I've realised that, the older I get, the more I appreciate the small, uncomplicated moments that I can just enjoy for their own sakes. Over the years, I've tried to uncomplicate my everyday life to be more 'present', whatever I'm doing and, to my untrained eye, it looks a bit like you're doing the same, Beau.
Whether I'm right or wrong, keep doing what you do so very well, mate. Goodonya.
I always loved that your uploads are not as frequent as the usual content-mania, we're living in. For me it was such a core quality of your stuff, that it happend in a different pace. A pace, which felt so much more natural, genuine and healthy to me.
I make my living from being an Artist myself and I definitely know that nagging feeling, you're describing. But I truly believe that especially we as creators should be aware, that keepin up the fun is not a trivial side-hustle, but actually our Main Quest.
To go again that dulling hurry and fight for the space, the calmness, the patience and the love, which that golden spark of creativity needs to glow.
Life is like a water butt.
It starts fresh and full of potential,
Slowly, over time filling with water.
That water can bring life and energy to that, can absorb.
The more we drain that butt, the less that is left. Take from it too often, it shall become empty. But give that butt some time, it shall refill, brimming once again.
You can't keep taking from what is empty, you need to give things time for the ideas, the spark, the fire within to bring life to our ideas.
I love your content beau, I think your spin on things is just great! It seems we are all trying to find some meaning to what we call life. And your content definitely strikes a match within me. Thank you for all the effort and time you go to, to share a small glimpse of your journey through what we call life!
A few days ago I ran 25 miles for my 25th birthday, best birthday gift I have ever given myself. Thank you for the inspiration!
When did you get 25?
A few days ago
why??
BUT... Churro, did you FILM YOURSELF????
I am having my 25th birthday in September. Got a lot of time to practise I guess.
"Do you actually paddle mate or just take pictures of yourself" 😂😂
bro really didn't need to come in so hot sheesh
@@kiprs They really do, and youtubers need to take a joke, not take offense, get off their high horse and, yes, "get over themselves". What that bro said was a very appropriate commentary of this youtube culture we live in, where we meet people filming themselves. So instead of coming over to say hello or shake hands, they turn around and go away to not "ruin their shot". These people are doing content in public all over... they are everywhere... on the bus, on the train, while running, climbing, skiing, boating, whatever. Always talking to their invisible audience, having their effing gopros phonesticks tripods and their drones and talking by themselves about what THEY DO. It is annoying to the normal people. But... when you try to get away to some remote place like a lake or mountain or trail, and you see THE EXACT SAME PEOPLE, even there, is DOUBLE ANNOYING. I've seen people getting angry, rightfully so, when people drive their drones over the lake, scaring the fish away. This is asshole behaviour. Or doing shitty "challenges" or pranks on people who are not in on it. This is the sad reality on "content creators". Of course some are different and I think Beau is, in all honesty. He takes a joke, enjoys what he does and does not bother people. This content, I like. But overall, most people are sick of youtubers.
@@ArbiterDanThere are people everywhere and yes, they talk. It makes no difference whether they are talking to their online audience or to their fellow companions “on the bus, on the train, while running, climbing, skiing.” I think you're kinda demonizing youtubers.
@@ArbiterDan All those words and all that impotent anger when it's literally free to just mind your own business.
I believe these are called growing pains Beau. Your honesty and sincerity truly rings a bell within me and most likely all of your viewers/subscribers. Please know that the video content you do produce, is meaningful and impacts a lot of souls out there. I love your work and how you as a person shines through no matter the video’s intention. Thanks for what you do Beau and keep them coming!!
Well this one definitely hits home. As someone who also makes adventure films, I can relate to the never ending grind of RUclips, having to pump out weekly or fortnightly videos. Hoping each new one will do better than the last. Obsessing over analytics and subscriber numbers. I had a burnout last year and I'm glad I did. It forced me to sit back and take a look at myself and reevaluate why I do what I do. If you're not doing it for the love of it, the viewers can see straight through it. Tight lines mate.
Take the time you need for yourself Beau, we’ll be here to watch your films when they’re ready.
I stumbled across your channel about a year ago, I subbed for the sole fact that you are just an honest down to earth chap, no drama, no look at me. You are just a bloke living life and I for one find your channel a cut above the rest. Keep being you mate don't let RUclips change you, you are a top bloke and this pom will always enjoy your content 👍
I always love your bigger videos, but many of the more basic ones -- like this -- are great. A good reminder that any weekend day for most of us, we can head out and do something cool. I sometimes see friends on big vacation trips and think, "That looks like fun," but then they talk about being exhausted and how they burned their one bit of time off and were always on the go. Meanwhile, almost any weekend, my wife and I can hop in our canoe or go for a morning hike and walk away with more than some people I know doing bigger things.
That's what I love about what you do: whether big or small, it's always good stuff with a real message. Thanks!
I love that last line. I am OK! It's been a while since someone has said something meaningful for me to remember! Thank you Beau.
Beau, your videos are so good that usually I see they come out and wait a few days for the proper weather in the morning to watch them, I then brew a good coffee and enjoy the bloody good films you make, don't worry about your upload schedule or about making the best films everytime, probably most of us here just enjoy whatever you put out, even though I know you don't like to put out half assed films.
Have a good one Beau, cheers from Brazil :)
What a beautiful soul Beau is. Why doesn't this guy have millions of subscribers?!!!
I love your videos Beau! They are so different and distinctively your POV. They have been worth the wait so far.
Your human bean video is still one of my favorites!
Probably your best film Beau. Thank you.
I love the joy he gets out of the most random, little thing nearly all the time.
That's the beauty of putting down the phone and taking in life around you. It's not bad to watch things or listen to music, but if you subtract all of the tech and toys for a bit, life around starts becoming fascinating again
whenever i need a moment of clarity, i come and watch your videos.
You don’t have to sharpen it, you do beautifully as a filmmaker.
I love your videos, because you talk like we are along on the adventure with you as a buddy.
I have some of the deepest conversations on those adventures.
Keep doing it as it works for you to do so, views be damned.
To me you are a bloody legend. All your videos are fantastic, entertaining and with a great educational message. From one teacher to another you are inspiring. I am certain that no one will complain if you take some time for yourself. All the best.
This hit home. I love the simplicity of life. I felt that when I was a missionary for my church and again when I was a river guide. I felt lighter and more joyful in those experiences because of how simple life was at those times. Ambition and providing for a family have complicated life a bit. But like you Beau it's all for the betterment of myself. There will be a time when my kids are grown and life will become simple again. But for now, I will have to bask in the few weeks a year when I can escape from work and my kids' soccer games and spend it fishing and white water rafting. Thanks so much for this. I know you feel like you don't fit in on this RUclips, but you sure are valued and appreciated.
"do you paddle, or just take a photo" ❤️
Your videos are the best!
You demonstrate and narrate all at once.. Perfect package for RUclips 👍
Thanks for great content!
Dude, you are one of the best introspective people on this platform. I could watch you make videos like this all the time because of the brilliant things you come out with. Hell I'm currently in the middle of your book and am reading it with your voice in my head, it's pretty relaxing. :)
Thank you Beau, much appreciated 👍🏼
Thanks for this Beau. Resonated with many thoughts I've been having lately. Your videos articulate the inner conflict of artists and creators so eloquently. Take care and recharge.
"A blackberry Bush, on a gum tree, in the middle of a lake" Beau's favourite things combined 😂 great video as always ❤
Ok, thank you, I’m taking today off to do my version of fishing- I needed that today xx
The pure nature of being human is found in the intricate details of a simple life supplemented with unconditional giving. I just spent 2 unemployed years running up mountains in Brisbane to figure that out and now I’m in much the same -boat- as you. I hope you find your warm, slow place in this distracted world Beau. Your films are beautiful. But with or without them, so are you.
Absolute legend 💪 lifes not a dress rehearsal, its a journey, a journey of achieving loads of nothing
Absolutely love you videos mate
I work full time, have a 2 year old and a child on the way. I have maintenance on my house and all the things that come with a normal life. I have been throwing a lot of my energy at RUclips over the last 2 or so months. You certainly do become a workaholic. I've been burning the candle at both ends. I don't get a large reception to my videos as my channel is small and niche, but I still enjoy doing it.
Keep making videos mate, I enjoy yours and they seem to be the most down to earth ones I see on RUclips. Thanks.
You are absolutely my favorite RUclipsr/Film Maker. I love all of your content and everything that you do brother. Thank you for being you.
Another great video thanks Beau. I really loved the camera work and some of the shots of the water really made me want to go out and enjoy nature some more.
Having stumbled apon your videos of trekking across Australia I instantly subscribed. I'll watch whatever you put up whenever you put it up. I am not expecting a weekly or monthly video nor have you set that expectation so please go easy on yourself. Post something whenever you feel its ready for the world to see ill still be here.
Just remember to enjoy your life one day at a time as it comes. Only you can judge the enjoyment you are having dont let others or metrics or money dictate that for you.
I just absolutely love this. It's refreshing that what matters is what matters to us, we just need to take time out to do something plain and peaceful, and get perspective. We're ok.
Thank you Beau, as an artist I suffer from burn out ALOT and you are 100% right. Sometimes the best thing to do is to try, mess up and not be scared of making a bad decision. Not everything we make needs to be perfect because that's just who we are at the end of the day. We learn from that.
Thank you for not staging a caught fish just to end the video on a high note. We don't need a Disney ending.
Also, as a long time watcher (and reader), this is why we are here - the insights from your canoe transcend 99% of the content on youtube. I hope that you can keep making videos like this, but never at the expense of the larger stories that need to be told. Anyway.. cheers from a Canadian fan.
Isn’t that a truth about life. “I do to much working and not enough fishing”. Took the words right out of my mouth
Beau, great to hear you're taking time for yourself! Great authenticity! I'm always struck by your 'genuine', no bullshit nature! This video, like many of the others is of good quality, very watchable and real! Thanks!
Beau, just keep being authentic and make quality videos. Make them long, make them short, make them weekly, make them 6 monthly, doesn't matter. Too many make it a business, overthink it, and their authenticity suffers. You have so many subscribers because you are authentic. For me personally I am inspired by you. I have mental health issues and its easy for me to fall into a funk and become super lazy. I've got a million things to do and it becomes easy to not do any of them. I see a new upload from you or the algorithm tells me to watch you run a marathon over 24 hours and BOOM! I'm motivated. Anyway, enough about me. You be you.
It _is_ relentless! And we love you for your films and videos. I particularly enjoyed this one! Easy and natural.
Much of what you said resonates with me a lot.
Thanks for making this vid... I still got to digest a lot but it already cleared some stuff in my mushy brain. Cheers mate! Hope u have more fun this year
The wrestle is reassuring, we all struggle to be authentic, to hone skills, to ride alongside passion. It happens! It’s mostly nice to hear someone say it and keep on, keeping on.
Love ya stuff Beau
Very natural video , happy and funny is personal, I started watching your videos while back and every video has a strong message. Not to many people do what you do . Very inspiring keep going I have friends never been out only thinking about work very sad to see that , you’re amazing ❤
thank you beau, i have watched you for 8 months now, i had stumbled apon the channel when i had dislocated my shoulder and torn my labrum, i had surgery and i have not missed a single video from that point on, Thank you Beau i have thoroughly enjoyed the videos and i have now have an attraction to the beautiful trees around and the hidden beauty in all the things around us from the trees to the animals to all the creatures big and small. i feel at peace now i have slowed down and realised how important my own mental health is, cheers bro
I’ve heard another redhead, Conan O’Brien, make a point about audience expectations. When a guest admits they're not doing well in an interview, the audience, previously unaware, suddenly perceives it as a flop, and the energy drops.
So, believe in yourself Beau, your abilities, and your presence here. Your audience is watching because you've got something worth sharing.
Thanks Beau, I needed this realignment. Sometimes the simple videos are the ones that heal the most complicated issues
I appreciate your videos very much. Best wishes to you whatever you decide for your future.
Regardless of what youve made and how often or not theyve come along, i feel you should know im utterly delighted when you grace my feed. Thank you.
Haha that opening interaction was hilarious. It's funny how when people hit that nerve it ultimately can teach us about ourselves.
I would be more than happy watching just a handful of your films a year if it meant you live your best life. Much love
Hey Beau,
I just wanted to say thank your for your videos. I'm following since, I don't know anymore how long. Probably since the running a mile every hour video.
For myself your videos are great way to calm me down because you as a person are just as calm as it can be. Even the videos which are more energetic do that for me. Because your videos are somewhat you. Authentic.
I'm grateful that I can look into your life as an Austrailian and how you think and react in certain situations. I live in Hamburg Germany, a high density human area where time is of highest value.
As it's for me watching your videos to ground myself I think it's always important to understand each other and your videos are doing a great part for it extending my horizon.
Always think outside of the box and look around the corner. And keep your brain young.
Quality over Quantity is in most times a good idea to keep yourself sane.
I hope you get what I mean. :)
This spoke to me. Even though I'm not a youtuber, we all get tangled in the same net of relentless productivity-drivenness. Often being productive in areas we wish we didn't have to be, and less productive in the areas we wish we were. Being a good husband, wife, son, daughter, father, mother, grandchild. Less productive at enjoying the things we enjoy and more productive at bearing with the tasks we need to bear to get by. That's life, and we all have to do it.
I appreciate this advice though: "Head out with the wrong lures, at a shitty time of day, and don't catch a thing." As someone who's gone fishing for the first time ever a couple of weekends ago, this is very good advice. Trying to get to whatever "moderation" is in life between jobs, family or fun for fun's sake, is a lifelong game of its own.
I'm confident you'll figure out the RUclips thing Beau, given the way you just ooze storytelling ability. For some reason lately, even though I'm not on patreon, I had also been suspecting the need to upload weighs on you. Personally, I don't mind infrequent uploads, cause I don't pay in anything other than views. I appreciate a man who won't produce anything less than his best efforts.
Really glad I waited to watch this, got the message when I needed it most.
Thanks for sharing with us as always Beau
Brilliant Beau! I think you’re on to something… and it’s just not for RUclipsrs - in any profession, we immerse ourselves in it, and it intertwines with our identity- in someways like that blackberry and the gum stump. And really taking the time to find a quiet spot to assess who we are, our vision for ourselves and get in touch with mother nature and our nature - it’s important and it’s good for the soul.
You probably won’t see this but whatever you uploaded doesn’t matter how short it is or what it’s about I will always tune in and support you! You’re one of a kind and a breath of fresh air, don’t ever change Beau 🙏
Straight out of hospital and your video is giving me the peace I need right now. Good on ya, mate!
Taking a break from work while also working during the break. This theme has come up in plenty of Beau's films along the way and it always ends with the same conclusion, stop worrying, you're okay...... and I think it's bloody true. There's no good if there's no bad and no fun if there's no work in the same manner. Both sides must thrive to achieve equilibrium and that's the beauty of it really, The beauty of balance.
Your videos have inspired me to get out more. Your life is very interesting and motivating to those who just exist. Your not a Narcissist, far from it. The fisherman is more likely to be the Narcissist because he thinks you should behave the same way as him. ❤❤
I couldn't care less how long it takes you Beau to come up with more of your deep cinematic videos, the thoughts you leave people with after those videos is what counts. Stick to what you love and people will always come and go.
Mate - thanks for all you do. And for what you share. Keeps the rest of the mayhem in perspective and gives us all a chance to enjoy someone living life.
Hi Beau, watching this reminded me of a RUclips talk that suggested some brains require more "friction" to be happy - with the absence of the sabre tooth tiger in our rather easy modern lives, we seek out "challenges" to our survival. Modern convenience has evolved faster than our physiology. I don't know you Beau, but you seem like a bloke who wants to share his experience of life - a life you seem want to make as challenging as possible for your own happiness. Making RUclips content may be another form of that friction. Who knows, you may have been a wrestler of tigers in the past, or lions in the Roman colosseum, and you would still have an audience. I've enjoyed many of your vids, thanks for sharing.
I am 100% on board with this introspectiveness (with a perfect pinch of oddness & uniqueness!) Some of the most relatable thoughts packed into this little film. A beauty!
Great video, Beau. Your thoughts and muses have given me a lot to consider as I ponder making a major career change in my late 20s with a young family. Keep at it brother, we all appreciate you and everything you do!
love yer films Beau. Your train of thought really resonates with me
Brilliant storytelling and an enjoyable watch. It's great how these simple reality shows with a person filming themselves and some clever editing and dialogue have become so popular. It's actually, really inspiring that in this day and age, the simple man can survive outside of his natural habitat, and maybe even find new lands.
The struggle is real and I like the way you approach it. I look forward to each video.
i could watch you watch paint dry, seriously how does this channel not have millions of subs, it will someday for sure! love the channel
hi beau,
I love your videos, I think you are a good honest hard working man, that love his family and loves life.
so, what I'm trying to say,
keep up the good work, and don't change anything about your channel.
because it's you being yourself makes your channel.
peace brother. x
paul
Just knowing that this man exists on the other side of the globe makes life a bit more bearable. Aside from a long list of what makes Beau's films great - this sort or reflection is the single most important one for me. Sure, some of the footage may seem mundane at times, but that does't in the least take away from the film's insight. If anything, it elevates it. Keep going at your own pace, mate! Your content is among the very best on YT.
Man I related to this video so much. Always hitting the nail on the head Beau.
This one really hit home Beau. It's the reason I've always struggled to be consistent with my uploads. There's relentless pressure to create videos that are bigger, better, and more... everything. If a video doesn't have great click potential, why even upload it? You're right, the fillers are the ones that we want to make, the ones we make for ourselves, the ones that are fun for us. You rock.
Beau! Even though that adventure-loaded blue hat pinned way high up the barn definitely had its charms, I love that shining pink flashy new hat of yours, as well. Guess life seasons change, but with it, we adapt and learn to love our circumstances.
Wish you more adventure-filled hats(no matter how the adventures actually look like), time for running, fixing and enjoying every bit of life! Good on you.
I heard some great advice for dating that I think you could apply to your videos. Basically, when you take someone for a date pick a place you’ve been wanting to go to anyway. You’ll have fun because you’re doing what you love, coming off better, but most of all even if the date itself doesn’t go too well you’ll still have fun because it’s what you want to do.
Pick some adventures you’ve been looking for an excuse to do. It’s not bad to be narcissistic, you’ve just got to remember to be a proper narcissist. Don’t think about the other people in this world, do what you love and people will gravitate to you.
You feel like you have to give us Beau because the people fell in love with Beau through your videos. But that didn’t start from trying to meet current expectations.
Just love watching your random quirky videos whenever you’re up to it Beau. It’s great just listening to you talk about whatever and watching you eat food from the side of the road ….
If I might say Beau. You can make any film, be it good or below average and I’ll always been engaged. Any story told by you is enlightening and told with great humour.
Lots of respect from here in the UK
I love you Beau! Follow your heart wherever that leads. My partner and I appreciate you, your films have brought us a lot of joy and connection.
Dude I'm a hard shelled human and you get still get through me. It works. Keep doin what you do.
The truth at the heart of this video is the reason I subbed years ago. We understand, Beau. And clearly, you do, too. Thank you :)
I enjoyed this a lot more than many of your recent videos. It resonated a lot...
Wonderfully descriptive and reflective for what's important in this space/culture we find ourselves in. Fantastic. And I struggle with this constantly as an editor
I come for the stories, I leave with a fresh perspective on life. Thanks @BeauMiles
It takes some storytelling skill and wit to take an offhand comment made by a passer-by and incorporate it into the video, to the point where it arguably becomes the centerpiece. Chapeau!
Keep being you Beau! That's good enough! Glad I somehow landed on your page many years ago.
