I came to an alarming realization in the last few weeks: I never give my mind a break. Maybe it's the society that we live in, maybe it was an addiction to productivity that I have developed but either way, in recent times I've started to feel bogged down, like I'm trying to run through mud. I'm constantly pushing to do more without considering my wellbeing and the importance of stopping and reflecting.
So I decided to do something a little different. I gave myself an entire day to reset: I would do nothing stimulating for 24 hours. No work, no internet, no exercise, no music, no reading and no food. I wanted to see what happen.
I'll just say it was well worth it.

I totally recognize I bent the rules a little bit by documenting my experience. I'm okay with that. I plan to do this again in the future without any cameras involved, but I wanted to share what it was like for the first time.
Feel free to leave any questions you might have as a response to this comment. Like I said, I'm thinking of responding and talking more about my experience on my Patreon.
The fact that you're thinking about this stuff and acting on it at 21 is astounding. I love your content, man.
I am really motivated by your ethic man, I feel like everything you said is so true, We need to reset and take in reality once in awhile
Thank You once again man. Your videos are like no other
Pretty cool work!! That sinking feeling of letting your day slip through your fingers is very relatable. In my case it's pure perfeccionism. But maybe in your case it's something else.
I think you’d learn a lot about yourself by taking LSD or shrooms. I’ve never done what you did in the video but it reminded me a lot of those experiences
Are you planning to make this experience a habitual thing? If so, how often can you imagine doing it?
I'm the opposite. I have too much time on my hands and nothing to do yet I have this fear of not getting things done. I stimulate my brain with social media and TH-cam to get away from those thoughts, drowning myself in passiveness.
this!
100% same.
I'm the same way. I went on a week long social media detox however and it really helped me gain some perspective. Now I'm a lot more conscious of socials and am trying to limit my use of them in a way that's beneficial for me (not quite there yet but trying). I do recommend uninstalling socials for a short while at least tho, it helps clear your mind and realise the amount of times you impulsively try to go onto such apps without really thinking about it. Other than that, all we can really do is experiment on ourselves and see what works for us. Sometimes you just have to break the routine like Nathaniel has done for himself
@Mystic Clover weird flex but ok
I still think your situation applies to the subject matter of the video. The dopamine thing is different for us all. He's addicted to working and keeping his mind busy and only he knows how that isn't the best thing for him. You're addicted to the constant information feed online, FOMO, "content", however your wanna put it. And you know how it is something you'd rather not have but keep coming back to. The idea of dopamine fasting really appealed to me. The "fast" might not be the same for everyone. But most of us do know what we're supposed to target.
addiction to productivity
honestly I hope to find a job/passion that allows to feel like that
yeah I'm addicted to laziness
I’ve lived both sides, neither are fun 😅
hana day Me too! Starting your own business is a good solution that worked for me. Always something to improve!
Try making music

"The problem I have is I love what I do" I wish I had that problem lol
What do you like to do? If you can answer that, you can do what you like to do
I was literally gonna come here and say thatttt
@@christianruano2761 That's just it, I can't really answer that lol that's my actual problem
Dude this video helped me so much. Thank you 🙏
Dreaming Since '99 welp best thing to do is to keep exploring and trying new things until you find something you like to do.
"I've always had a hard time with ending the day" - when I was in college, one day, I just *quit* I decided that 8:00 was the end of my day and I stopped working that day. And the next. And I kept it up. I wrote down anything I had left to do before bed and then worked on it first thing in the morning. Writing it down enabled me to release the feeling of 'I need to XYZ!!' that kept me up at night. I also found that quitting before I was past the point of exhaustion enabled me to better organize my life. I'd clean up more. I'd pick an outfit for the next day. I'd take better care of my body in general. It turned out that "letting go" of some time actually saved time in the long run. That was easily the happiest and most productive period of my life.
How are you doing now ?
I'm also wondering how you're doing down.
I really like the 'end at 8' philosophy. I'm going to test it. Thanks for the suggestion.
Ali ibn Abib Talib, when asked what surprised him most about humanity, answered "Man! Because he sacrifices his health in order to make money. Then he sacrifices money to recuperate his health. And then he is so anxious about the future that he does not enjoy the present; the result being that he does not live in the present or the future; he lives as if he is never going to die, and then dies having never really lived.”
You know this quote is probably fake (perhaps still something to learn from though)
just4 kommentare schreiben very deep!!!
Deep
it's a quote by Ali.
I love this quote!!!
SO. RELATABLE.
I too am addicted to productivity and feel like shit every time I have a slow day
i feel you bro
I don't feel you bro
@@dt-lg2oc me either 😶
same i'm addicted to productivity in the form of making animations nonstop..
I'm the opposite and you people make me feel like sh*t in this productive society. Good citizen you are. Social interactions make me feel tired and depressed... How do you guys do?
When he said “I refuse to let my life be governed by fear and doubt”, I FELT THAT
That's awesome. When i read that i just said "ok whatever" but scrolled back up when I realized how great that is.
11:58 In my opinion having unlimited access to anything is just killing the magic of it. Like Netflix for T.V. Shows, Music streaming services and a lot of other things. Scarcity is what makes things, valuable. Isn't that the rule of commodities, diamonds are rare and so expensive.
yeah, kind of what I subconsciously thought but you put perfectly in words!
When I was little The Wizard of Oz came on TV ONCE a year. When it was over you knew you would see it again a year later. Same thing with Christmas shows like Rudolph and Frosty. You hung on to every word and didn't even go to the bathroom because you didn't want to miss a thing. Your comment reminded me of this.
Modern diseases are of abundance not scarcity.
@@MrPancake615 Are you trying to be clever with that comment? Because you just sound like an idiot.
Absolutely
*Boredom is one of the most potent ways of finding your calling.*
You become so restless, granted you aren't distracted by people, events or technology, that you start to ponder over your life.
It's through that silence and time alone that you get inspired and find your deepest wishes - within.

You are right that what would happen to normal people.however there are some people that they just lost in games or other stupid stuff and they end up doing nothing
@@mysigt_ hi)I don't mean myself I mean other People
I normally hate your useless comments with vague quotes and no value but this one I like
It's like you were a cat for the day. Just napping, relaxing, gazing out the window. Hehe!
except that my cat can't go 10 min withouth begging for food.

Hi, I attempted this yesterday after watching this video. It was an interesting experience - definitely the longest day I've had in a while. Got up around 8am, did some meditation, journaling, a bit of stretching. Around noon I went out and was outside for 2-3 hours. I felt a bit more aware of things around me and even though the weather wasn't great it was still good to be outside. When I came back I decided to have an nap and slept for OVER 2 HOURS. Maybe my body really was that tired and I hadn't acknowledged it. After that I meditated and journaled a bit more. Around 8 I decided to break my fast, and had some protein and veg, really simple but tasted so good and weirdly I got full really fast. I realise I don't take the time to actually appreciate the good food I get to eat every day. I then decided to do a bit of work on my laptop for 1hr and even with a light filter my eyes felt very tired in front of the screen. I decided to go to bed and end the day. Overall I didn't do the full 24hr but I think I learned a fair bit. There was a dread at the start of my day for not doing anything that had slowly got replaced with the confidence that I can do anything and I always have a choice. I realised how much pressure I put on myself to get so many things done and to get them done the right way. I also noticed how much time there is in the day and in how much of it I numb myself with my phone and the through the Internet just so I don't have to look at the current moment. Usually when I get up in the morning I feel very irritable and frustrated straight away. The morning after doing this challenge is the first time in a while that I've felt so peaceful. Overall I guess this was worth trying. A new and odd experience. Thanks for reading :)
I feel you 100%, this vid helped me a lot to organize and realize my own thoughts and feelings! Thanks!!
You and Matt D'avella are saving TH-cam.
@Marcus TH I dont agree with the idea that he thinks it is worth doing because it is "meaningful". Pretty sure he says its worth the experience. Because thats what life and living should be about: Experiencing. When we are in the perfect place where we feel save enough and experience awe. To experiment for experimentation sake, not primarily for results. I am not sure about you, but thats when I feel most alive and fullfilled. So I guess in a sense it is meaningful and worth pursuing. And I think thats also how people get wise.
Not sure I agree with what you are on about with hipster and pretending. Most of the concepts and methods presented in his videos are around for centuries or decades. Just because everybody nowadays thinks that he/she has to reinvent the wheel to be someone, doesnt mean he is a hipster to try out field tested methods or traditions. Maybe you think he is just doing this purely for attention and success, not for him personally. While I cant confirm nor deny, I do not get those vibes from his videos. If that would be the case, he would have a whole team around him, making all the boring stuff for him. But from how it looks he does it all on his own, so I guess he isnt too much into the whole deal of economically milking his success and rather using his success to have more opportunities of doing what he wants to do by providing him with the money so he can fully focus on it.
I dont know you, but based on this one comment, you sound like you are very success oriented yet frustrated because you feel like you dont have the success yet you think you deserve or think you should have. So you vent it by tearing down other successful people who you feel like dont deserve it because of how they got their success. Maybe because you think for sucess you have to not be yourself. Maybe that adds a bit of some self loathing too, who knows. Its just my bad assessement of your depressed comment.
for sure! 💯
Search for PINHO, brazilian minimalist channel that is soo cool
@Marcus TH better than watching PewDiePie and fortnite videos.

*_If my sense self-worth is entirely dependent on what I'm capable of doing right now, I think I'm going to have to face some harsh realities eventually_*
- Nathaniel Drew
I really needed to hear that. Not heavy on quotes but I'm writing that one down.
We have a young Sinatra here
I came across this comment when he actually said it (I didn’t rewind or anything)
@@user-tn4ls5hh2f holy ** me 2 :-D
I don't really know what this is trying to say... The second part of the sentence is quite vague to me. Could you explain?
@@teunvanwezel2282 I think it's kind of vague too, but from what I understood, facing harsh reality would be recognizing that you're not capable of much at the moment, thus implying low self worth.
Definitely relevant and if you read this comment I want you to know that : Your story is valuable, your insight when shared is easy to connect with as you're genuine and honest in what your experience has been like. I hope you continue to walk on a more peaceful path that can allow you to have fulfillment from your work and relaxing where its due.
It is a culture thing. I live in a country where life revolves around friends, family and free time. Those are priorities in life and we all strive to complete the work just to be able to spend time longing around with close people. And those who are obsessed with productivity and work are different, and non typical. I hope pther cultures help you relax a bit a reset ypur priorities even just for one rest day.
myflyingkidney what country do you live in?
@@joeycollins4838 Croatia. If you are American you might know it from Game of thrones or possibly football world cup. If you are European you know where it is :)
myflyingkidney ooo interesting! I'm American but I know of it because i actually have a friend who's mom is from there
@@joeycollins4838 cool :) I think that is the first thing Americans (and many other tourists too) notice when they come here. It is a very relaxed culture. tourists always say all we do is sit and drink coffee all day. It isn't completely true, it's more complex than that, but it is definitely an important part of our day. You get together with your friends and just have coffee and talk. As often as you can. And oftentimes you'll see people just sitting and reading newspapers together and having coffee and not even talking, just being together. And another ritual people have here is to meet with their friends or co-workers (which is often the same) before work for coffee, which can be as early as 7 in the morning and those meetings are short, maybe an hour the most, and then you go to work. I'd personally rather sleep, and I never meet with people that early, but I understand why people do it. Ita much easier to go into work that way, you feel much more positive. So yeah. Being lonely or isolated or too focused on work is definitely not a peoblem here. But we have a lot of other terrible problems, as any country I guess.
myflyingkidney Yeah every country has its own catch, but that's very interesting how it's so much more family and friend oriented than mainly work in Croatia. I'm only in highschool at the moment but with america's state i've been interested in after graduating to study abroad and maybe move out of country. I've heard new zealand is great but now i'd like to look into Croatia more! I love learning about other countries and their cultures :)
"I'm just a kid on the internet"
Yes you are. But your thoughts and opinions go much beyond that. You are really talented and definitely a huge inspiration for us, the other kids on the internet.
Well said
"I'm already like an adult." I love that line, and I don't think that feeling ever really goes away. Intellectually we now we are older but we don't really feel like a grown up. Maybe not everyone, but a lot of people. :)
You hit the nail on the head, Nathaniel, with your revelation of connecting to childhood. What we were as children is the core of what we are as adults! To be able to revisit that childhood is unbelievably restorative and comforting in this intense world we live in. Thank you!!
This feels so relatable- definitely going to give this a go, sounds very meditative
I’ve read a great blog post about Dopamine levels and how to boost them naturally, just check it out, I think you’d like it. www.healthodysseyweb.com/blog/Discoverthe10bestwaystoboostDopaminelevelsnaturally
Do you ever feel like you get into a self-help feedback loop? Almost as if you become so focused on finding mental clarity, you get distracted from your original goal?
LEAVE self-help books!!!!!!! They screw up your mind. DO! That's the most important thing.
I’ve read a great blog post about Dopamine levels and how to boost them naturally, just check it out, I think you’d like it. www.healthodysseyweb.com/blog/Discoverthe10bestwaystoboostDopaminelevelsnaturally
@@UlyssesRicardo you don't want to boost it though, you want to limit it to things that matter.
Self help is complete bullshit, realized that a long time ago... you’re reading and trying all this nonsense and wasting your time
now make a youtube video about that for people to consume with a fresh illusion that they're actually getting closer to the finish line of self-help where they can actually start getting things done
I struggle with productivity that's why feel like shit when i learned that there are people like you that are addicted to productivity.
When you said that the last time you felt this boredom was in childhood is EXACTLY what I've been thinking about these past months (with covid, quarentine...) . Thank you for this video!
Definitely one of my favourite youtubers right now, your videos really resonate with me and are helping guide me along the path I want, keep it up my dude!
The way you seem to gradually getting happy and light is soooo beautiful.❤️❤️❤️
This is amazing!!! Watching you go through the experience causes such a huge shift in perspective as a viewer, this was a good reminder that we need a pause sometimes!
He’s just so adorable. I could watch his videos forever
Going through this NOW. Did medical checks and was fine. Doctor said I should go rest (do nothing)
Thanks Drew ❤ from Uganda
Nathan, this video is so on point. I’ve been feeling the same way you have recently due to living an unsustainable work lifestyle.
You’re spot on with the “fear of boredom” & using work as an escape from yourself ideas. Thank you for making this!
I love how humble you are. You're doing many cool things and still you say "I'm just a kid on the internet". Many people take themselves so seriously and forget that we're all just kids in big bodies exploring the world.
I really hope you do this day without the camera. You’re still working and creating. Filling your need for a “productive” day. I would be curious to see what you felt after a full no camera day.
yes, you’re a kid on the internet, but you spread so much positive and interesting messages and thoughts. i honestly can’t thank you enough for this video, it was so interesting and it makes me wanna do that too. distance myself from internet, my phone, stressful exams, all those kind of pressures.. ! thank u :)
Hey Nathaniel! I'm 22 yrs old so we're around similar age range! Thank you for sharing this tbh! I feel this pressure constantly everyday to the point where it paralyzes me and depresses the hell outta me. I'm glad I'm not the only one feeling this. Thank you so much for the advices!
Who else is planning on trying this during quarantine?
I think I am seriously considering to give this challenge a try. I am a terrible at giving myself a break. I mean, the only reason why I get out of bed every day is to do something productive for work or school.
Your channel is so genuine and heart felt. It shows. Thank you for sharing your growth with the world
You really inspire me with each video you put here. I love following you. Keep up the good work. Always!
we're a whole generation founded on FOMO
Wow there is something to that, my generation was the transitional internet generation, I feel we got all of the good stuff, curiosity, vastly more educated, more connected. You guys got a lot of the bad stuff, anxiety, extrinsic self-worth, poor focus etc. But hey there are probably an endless amount of good things to go with it. I do sense there is a rising tide of people seeking to distance themselves from media and tech, get back to a simpler analogue time.
@@MrNiceHk so true! We are basically one big study on what online interactions do to us as humans. There is no long-term studies available, it's all real time. I am not upset, I find the times we live in extremely exciting! And if anything, I hope that we learn to deal with anxiety etc. earlier on in life because of it. But you are not wrong. The numbers speak against us!
Buy Bitcoin
so accurate. being 30 I feel like I got to experience just before the change and also now in the midst of it and nowadays I feel FOMO so much it's crazy. Always used to feel so present.
Fomo is the worst and only gets worse with social media. You always feel like someone is doing something and you need to
This couldn’t have come at a better time for me. Thank you for sharing this.
i am so much older than you but i find it so relatable and calming.wisdom beyond years.
This is exactly what I go through and needed. Thank you for this video.
Thank you for the quality and honesty of the content that you continually provide. Your hard work is appreciated.
I'm really grateful for content creators like you, so thank you.
Nathaniel, you probably hear this a lot but you really are an inspiration. You seem to have yourself and your life a lot more figured out than me, and at the age of 21! I am 23 and I feel a lot of affinity with you. I've always had that same sense of pressure to always be productive. I feel I've lost track of my goals the last 18 months or so. I graduated from university and was working a shitty job but to save up money so I could spend 6 months or so in South America, immersing myself in Spanish. Sadly Covid derailed my plans several times and although I did manage to learn Spanish from home, I feel I spend far too much time in that shitty job whilst my peers passed me by. But your videos are inspiring me to reclaim my path and get back on track. Thank you and I hope life continues to bring you blessings.
I used to do this in a tent in the mountains. I really should get back to doing that. Thanks man. Good share.
So I did it. I also made a video about my experience, thanks for the inspo ma man! It's an idea worth sharing. th-cam.com/video/pSUaNKyS87Y/w-d-xo.html
You are truly an awesome, outstanding human being. With your empathy, your high degree of intra and inter personal intelligence and most importantly with your humbleness, you'll be just fine no matter the obstacles you may go through :)
You’re amazing, so honest and free. Thank you for sharing! ❤️
Nathaniel, you’re so reflective and introspective. I find that a very attractive quality. Your videos are so relaxing to watch, and I never feel like I’ve “wasted my time” per say whenever I watch you. Thanks for sharing!
You dont know how much i needed this
Too much stimulation creates *COMPLEXITY* and *COMPLACENCY.*
Agreed!
Could you elaborate on the complexity part?
@@agazi9 lots of information to sort through online and in life makes you feel overwhelmed
minato22 And the overload of stimulation makes the brain crave for something more rewarding. This creates complexity when the brain is looking for too much sources.
Thank you both for the answers. The brain craving something more rewarding or even complex is definitely a big problem for a lot of people with addictions. I think the complex part imo is the worst because you’ll find yourself digging deeper and deeper to find something equally as rewarding as when you first started
Nathaniel, you are so mature and insightful for someone who is 21. I am 22 and I am only just starting to start a journey of self improvement, so I really I appreciate these very informative videos that you are creating. Thank you.
Im so happy i found this channel, i really enjoy the content that I've been binge watching so far. Thank you for bringing this content in my life
The quality is at its best! Keep the good work man! Continue uploading these kinda of videos.
I admire the courage to express your true feelings and struggles. 💛
Boredom is so important, we truly desire constant stimulation but just letting your mind quiet, letting all the ideas inside shuffle around and make connections allows for so much reflection and creativity. Thanks for sharing, this is a message we need to hear!
I admire how vocal you are about your emotions and experiences ! you rock !
Your videos are truly fascinating. Always a new, interesting topic that you somehow always find a way to make it captivating.
You inspire me to take a new look at things, and I appreciate that. Keep up the good work.
How can someone dislike/ hate this guy... Such humble and genuine personality..not someone will be eyeing viewers as if they have to go through the whole watch hour or else they'll lose something..
Quality of soft speaking, honesty is winning hearts.. it feels comfortable, welcoming
No preaching, no loud voice, no screaming... What at least I needed after the end of the day!
You’re helping me totally reinvent myself this year and I thank you so much for your content
i'm currently in a rut right now, this is exactly what i needed thank you!
Every video makes me reflect on different aspects of my own life. This video is once again inspiring
honestly the best video out of you keep striving
you are changing a lot of perspectives, one video at a time. thank you.
I've been doing a reiteration of this for the past year. Throughout my entire life, there has always been stress and chaos and turmoil in every aspect. I had a messy childhood, traumatically injured teens (I broke my neck and had complications), lots of personal struggles throughout college, and lived in China for a year as an ESL teacher who said yes to everything.
Throughout this past year, I've had to figure out what I want to do with the rest of my life because I discovered teaching isn't for me. And I finally feel like I have actually rested fully and recharged my batteries. Now I'm moving to Europe in 75 days to start the grad school program of my dreams and I never would have discovered even my new field without having had this mental reset. I highly recommend doing a mind reset!
Nathaniel, even when you do nothing, you create amazing content.
I know I am only observing from a distance but : Such a wholesome human being!
youre literally saving lifes.. keep up the work man
Thank you for sharing your experience Nathaniel.
*_Some people are addicted to alcohol, weed, etc. I'm addicted to productivity..._*
Life Progress - Health, Wealth, & Happiness Channel weed isn’t addictive
@@Sjixify Not physically. But many great addictions aren't physical in nature. It's okay if you enjoy weed, but saying that it has no addictive qualities seems kinda ignorant.
MrJeng300 it’s not addictive that was proven.. it’s based on the individual’s own self control.
@@Sjixify It's not PHYSICALLY addictive. Eating in itself isn't either. Yet TONS of people are addicted to overeating. Obviously, ALL ADDICTIONS, are based on predisposition and personal self control.
@@MrJeng300 Don't bother with that person lol. He/she is obviously way too young to understand that weed is 100% addictive and in most cases detrimental to a person's well being.
Your face at the beginning vs. after your restingday - SO WONDERFUL! thank you for sharing your experiences and thoughts with us. I'm so glad that we can share our conciousness, personal developments and ups&downs through the internet. Sometimes i need to remember myself that i am normal while most of the world is crazy! Not the other way around! Thank you for being normal and honest Much Love from Germany
WOW, this is just exactly what I'm finding out by myself as well these past weeks, and this was also part of my solution to the problem. Finding myself hurrying way to much, and not taking time to sit down and just be in the moment.
Goodluck finding yourself and feeling what's best for you!
I really felt this video as an 21 Year old. Thank you.
planning to do a dopamine fast on sunday, this video hyped me up so much 🤗
Your thoughts are relatable on all levels. I plan to do a dopamine detox this weekend (quarantine makes that an easy option) and I think this video was a great preview to what we can expect. Looking forward to reflection and decompression without the stress of responding to anyone. Thank you for documenting this and sharing your raw inner thoughts openly.
My mind is blown every time you mention your age. You are wise beyond your years!
Yesssss, the best way to start my day
Love your approach to life i like her personality and what you believe in your work is inspiring..☺
Forever in awe of Nathaniel's self awareness and spiritual freedom. I would love to meet someone with his depth and curiosity
Thank you.
Your video has made me happy and lifted me from the slump i have fallen into.
Thank you, this video was an eye-opener.
THIS VIDEO IS AMAZING. YOURE amazing! And so inspiring. Thank you for sharing your experience. What a beautiful video
Your voice overs have this asmr quality to them that is just amazing
This guy is so refreshing to listen to
"just be" nice. I like your honesty and how your able to put these things into coherent and clear words, especially being or trying to do enough or more, I am also 21 it's a weird age not gonna lie. But it's nice to know we are not alone, I think a lot of people feel that way. It makes me feel hope for myself, so thanks, man!
you're cool, and i'm so glad we're friends
I've been feeling very absent during conversations with people (even with you, maybe you noticed), or even when I drive sometimes (which is dangerous I know..) and i've been wondering why. I think I need more balance too. I'll stick to 10min / day of meditation and 20min of stretching/yoga to disconnect because this has helped me tons in the past and I miss it. I'd like to find a better balance in my routine and have habits that keep my mind clear instead of having to go full on 24 hours. This video really made me think about how I could balance my own life as well and this is very valuable. Thank you
EVERY video leaves me speechless and ready to better myself... Amazing!
Love this. Thank you Nathan.
First bell notification from you and I'm happy.
Sharing this with my 20 yr old son. He describes to me so many of the feelings regarding productivity you talk about. I ❤️your work and you are a lovely human. Blessings to you :-)
I recently found your channel and it's one of my favorites, your videos help me a lot, great content
You really inspire me. Thank you for sharing! I can feel your energy.
I turn off all notifications on all my devices for this reason. I am generally not very productive and have low concentration, so this has really helped me a lot. I only have notifications on for phone calls and the app I use to help me form habits via daily commitments. All else is off at all times.
" The problem is, I love what I do. "
Tells you a lot about him.
Your videos are life changing Nathaniel.
I really appreciate your openness and relatable content.
I'm glad that I clicked the bell icon 😁
When you talked about 'Where dd my life go I'm 21' I reliased, yea I'm 19, me too. I think this sort of thing is very useful, I every week I dissconect, turn my phone off and play some games or do some art without being reachable and it allows me to think freely & imagine.
But I no longer think of free days as wasted days - I beilive the more time we take on self care the better our work will be as a result. So take breaks dude!
I am doing this tomorrow! Thank you so much for sharing your experience!
I've been meaning to have a day like this, I am looking forward to implementing it and seeing what I discover.
