Inspiring you to act in new ways!
Respect for getting out there!
An idea I've had a craving for, for a few years now, is just simply knocking on random people's doors and asking for a coffee/tea and a casual conversation/interview. I think it could be great, for one, because it might improve or even make that persons day, and also because every person probably has a story to tell, something you can take away from the conversation.
Detriments are, that people may feel embarassed if they don't have a proper space to house a guest (untidy/-clean) but feel obligated to be hospitable, and even if they'd turn you away that's probably somewhat of a negative experience (for them).
A slightly more advanced version would be asking if you could use someones kitchen, and cook a small meal for them (bringing the ingredients you're going to use already with you, in a demonstratable bag).
I haven't had the cochones to actually pull it off yet, fearing the likely many rejections.
But instinctually I believe that many people WOULD actually let a stranger into their house for a tea and chat, contrary to what I think rationally.
Doing the whole thing while filming obviously is a whole different game, and you'd probably have no-shot or just a very slim chance on people agreeing to their personal space being broadcast. In addition to questioning the motive -- thieves staking out their new marks in a genZ way?
Anyway, just food for thought.
I do like the idea a lot!
I have had similar ideas of going in to peoples homes to cook them a meal. I felt like it would be too much to ask of some people.
The tea on the other hand is a great idea. I have a couple of neighborhood I can try this with.
Because this way I don't have to sell them anything and it is more about getting to know them and their story. I like the idea.
I think as the channel grows the cooking would be fun to try. As I do enjoy cooking. I cook more body builder stuff 99% of the time.
I can always come up with and idea to make something interesting. And always come back to the house afterwards with food if they say yes. As I wouldn't want to knock when they may be eating dinner.
This is what I'm trying to work on. Golden video, you just got a sub bro!
Thank you dude!
Anything you are doing right now that you are trying to work on? or what is holding you back?
@@calebquimby I want to approach girls, thought of which terrifies me. Like, I physically can't, although want to, when I see a pretty girl. Same, although a little less scary, when I want to make new friends at concerts, festivals.
Currently I can initiate small talk with total strangers I don't care much about (gym bros, supermarket employees), it helps a lot although I definitely should do it more often to get comfortable being proactive in meeting new people.
It is funny because I work sales (in store), and I'm somewhat decent at it. Turns out it doesn't really convert into making friends, or I fail to utilize it properly.
@@PinInCruiZ I have had the same thing. In sales it is easy to talk with people because you know what to say and the problem you are solving for them.
With friends it a bit different because there are so many more factors.
@@PinInCruiZ I do believe they can be transferred as you have done it in one place. Then it become a matter of doing it in the other place. It may be a trial and error type of thing. If you try it will improve.
And the girls thing. This is still hard for me in some regards
LOVE IT

We don't know anyone other than our parents and even they are stranger to us at first.
