I know your probably not gonna see this. But at the moment I am 12 years old and you are my role model. When I am older I want to be like you and my dad, travel the world and learn about culture. What I’m trying to say is at the moment I am teaching myself German 🇩🇪 and your videos are so inspiring and are encouraging me to learn even more. 😂. Can people blow this up so Nathaniel can see 😂
Nathaniel's videos are just pure gold every single time, so much value, and more importantly, every video is so "Nathaniel style" if you get hahahaha, it's just so original. Keep creating Nathaniel!
Nathaniel you are my inspiration. Every one told me about how introvert I am. But deep down i am always like to travel and have love for different languages. And you made me to believe that how amazing is to be an introvert. The joy I feel when you upload video is immeasurable. Thank you Nathaniel
This sounds a lot like surrendering to the flow of life. A spiritual concept of non-resistance. It really is one of the highest practices. We can't always control the situations life gives us but we can control our reactions to them. I dig it, Nathaniel!
I am so impressed with your Albania trip storytelling. I would love if you continued exploring the Balkans/Eastern Europe. So little is explored in this region of the world that is ripe w history and culture 😊
I'm 60, and I really love your videos. Wish I was where you are at now, when I was your age! You really are an old soul, young man 💖Vini, Vidi, Vici! That should be your motto 😉
Your abstrakt and big wording at the end reminded me of an Anne of Green Gables/ Anne with an e quote: "People laugh at me because I use big words. But if you have big ideas you have to use big words to express them, haven’t you?"
Nathaniel seems to me the definition of an 'old soul'; a deep thinker, introspective, empathetic and always learning. I love following his journey through these videos.
Nathan, I follow a lot of channels on TH-cam and I do watch a few folks regularly but you're the only one with whom I connect with. Like we're an extension of each other, if that makes sense. Thank you for making these videos. I really hope to meet you someday and get to know the guy behind the camera as well. All the best man ❤️
First Pick Up Limes and now Yes Theory?! I need to know who your other YT friends are so I can go watch them too! Great video; I'm excited to see what's to come, whatever that is.
Nathaniel, I really want you to know that you've inspired so many of us to focus on being more intentional, kind, and going one day at a time. You're a great storyteller! Lots of love. 🌻
This is really inspiring. I loved it when you said "this is out of character for me", its really cool to see you out of character and just living life, and seeing you exciting over a man that invites you some coffee, or nervous about your first tattoo, etc. It´s just you living in the moment.
Life is so full of bad decisions. We shouldn't see them as bad decisions. Fear shouldn't hold us back. It's as if fear tears pages out of our life book. Loved the video. 🌻 Everything that happens to us happens and guides us for a reason. We are where we are in life for a reason.
Oh, I can relate so much to your spur in the moment tattoo. I got my first tattoo exactly the same way - it was a one day visit in Amsterdam on my journey and I fell in love with the city right away. It was one of the most joyful and enriching days in my life. When I passed a tattoo salon i knew deep down in my heart and soul that I need to capture this day somehow and that if I don’t do it, I will regret it forever. Before this trip, I’ve thought about getting one, but I’ve never had the strong feeling “okay, now” and “okay, this one” - I would have got one simply from boredom which is not an enough reason for me. I love the tattoo - not simply because of the principle that a few simple lines on my wrist means something to me (which they do), but because I have a connection to that day, to that feeling. Something that is purely mine, that others doesn’t have to understand or know. Yes, it is scary to do such a big decision in one quick moment. But I think we always know straight away what is worth it and what isn’t. Can’t wait for your new chapter and thank you for giving me a new feeling - excitement before a new unknown journey :)
*Most people sit around and wait for inspiration, just some rare people get up and get to work.* *I may not know you personally, but I believe in you that you will succeed!* 🙏
I love this channel because my mind works a lot like Nathaniel's does. These videos (and yes theory) have helped keep me grounded in my core values while I navigate a corporate job that just feels so meaningless to me. I need these videos to remind me of life's bigger picture. A resounding thank you to you, Nathaniel. Much love.
I’ve also been thinking about this recently, Nathaniel - and I think there’s something so humbling about embracing whatever life has to offer instead of trying to control and master it. Such a huge change to how I used to think! Thanks for articulating this better than I could ever!
I really like the way your channel is changing. You seem happier now:) So often we humans get stuck trying to find a way out of the chaos of this world. But isn´t the unexpectet what makes life beautiful? I feel like your videos portrait the idea of "amor fati" really well!
The last few minutes of this video gave me goosebumps… I’m so grateful I came across your channel over a year ago and being able to see you live with the phrase amor fati in real time excites me to also live my life that way. Wishing you a beautiful journey ahead! :)
You’re a wonderful person. Many people come to this philosophy after a loss of a loved one or after failing completely / enduring shame. Impressed that you have gotten here at such a young age.
You are just 23 and what you have achieved and discovered is amazing. The way you create, the way you talk and express your thoughts and emotions is astonishing! Bravo!
This was so great. I was recently surprised by me getting a tattoo. I walked away feeling like "wow...I did that". So nice to see your growth and willingness to get out of your own way. Thanks for sharing and inspiring.
really love this saying, amor fati. and so important to hold close as life flows how it goes. hell yea for seeking discomfort and doing what you want to do, staying true to yourself.
literally had the thought last night of how long it’s been since we had a new video from you and then BAM my day has been made by this. grateful for the reminder to stop overthinking and to focus on the experiences.
You said absolutely correctly that attachments always bring sufferings. It is exactly what yoga philosophy teaches us. The less attachments you have, the happier and freer you are. Thank you for your content. It's amazing!
This was what I needed. Maybe in a few years it will change again, but I needed to hear this concept. I've been through a lot as a person, and I've done all that I can to heal from those wounds. In that process, I find myself removed from the world. Removed from the pressure the world usually exerts on me. To find a good job, to find a partner, etc. I walked away from it all, and found a relative peace. Yet, in that peace, I found no answers as to what to do with myself. And then this video shows up. Love of fate, Love what happens to you. I was waiting for that external pressure to tell me what to do. It's how I lead my life for the past 28 years. I always balanced that negative pressure with sheer will. Yet, I never really consider letting my love for what is to guide me. To let myself pave the way with the beauty I see around me. To let life do as it will, and I'll love it just the same. I've always wanted passion to guide me. I've always wanted to become my own dreams, and as a result, I never really let myself love what was in front of me. Love what I've been. Love what I am. Amor Fati.
Through years in life you helped me, be it way of thinking, planning or learning languages. After so many positive changes it feels great to know its only the beggining. Thank you for being you and keep going! Hello from Russia)
Nathaniel, I’ve followed you for little over 2 years now (originally because I was learning Italian!) and you’ve become one of my biggest role models in life. Your message resonates with my every time and I’m grateful to be connected with you. You’ve made me push boundaries of growth I never would have questioned before. Much love e grazie mille caro
Philosophy + spirituality + realism is how I've personally been wanting to live life recently. So much in life is straightened out for you once you set yourself a clear vision and understanding of what life is and how you want your life to be. Also making sure that the process of getting to that point isn't influenced by unprocessed emotions within the body is sooo important. Loved especially the last part of this video! Excited for change!
it hurts me how deeply i feel like i can relate to you... also, whenever you decide to visit another country, Brazil would welcome you with open arms ❤️
I think it's very interesting, because I feel for me searching for defining myself has kind of ended it accepting the continuous change. Following my gut has been unpredictable, but it never results in feelings of regret. Looking forward to see what this next chapter for you will look like!
'Amor Fati' is a central tenet of Stoicism. Pairs beautifully with their tenet of 'Memento Mori' (roughly meaning "Remember you have to die"). If you haven't explored that territory yet, do it. In particular, the books 'Meditations' by Marcus Aurelius, and 'Discourses and Selected Writings' by Epictetus are incredible. They changed my life and helped me realise that one can choose ones reaction to life. The unknown and chaos can be exciting rather than terrifying. One can seek peace and tranquility rather than hopelessly chasing the ephemeral spectre of happiness.
Minute 5:23... "attachment is what brings unhappiness, getting locked into a specific outcome" THAT. IS. IT. This applies to everything! relationships, career, life goals and expectations...
Hello 👋 Firstly I would like to thank you for making your TH-cam channel and sharing with us your ideas, experiences, thoughts and feelings with us. You are always open with us on what you are planning and explaining things in a ways that we could understand your concept and ideas. Secondly, I found your channel in a really difficult time in my life. I was lost, and didn't know what I wanted out of this life that I have been blessed with. I had to make one of the biggest choice that a person can make. Watching a couple of your videos about Journaling, answering questions, finding who I am. Little by little my anxiety grew and so did my stress but after listening to your words. Things started to click together. I was still worried but unlike before. This also inspired me to start looking at life in a different view and to find ways of improving my life style. I am still not sure about what my purpose is but one thing for sure I do know that enjoying every moment in the present and accepting things as they come without having this huge worry about tomorrow. Life become lighter and content was found. Finding happiness in the little moments helps. Thirdly, I am an avid traveller. Always hopping from one place to the other but never staying there for too long. Mostly a few days. Your videos made me realise that I wasnt experiencing the true culture of the country and the idea of slow travelling was fascinating. And so was the concept on finding true fulfillment and peace in life. Fourthly, never knew that two of my favourite channels would make a video together this was a nice surprise. Thank you for taking the time to read all of this and thank you again for making your videos. Really I can't thank you enough. Have a good day!
ah i’ve been watching you for two years. and the changes you’ve been making in your videos excite me so much. i’m trying to do the same in a way. over attachment to outcomes have been something that’s really hurt me in the past. it’s caused me a lot of anxiety over the years. i’m really trying to calm down and enjoy what’s here and be excited for the unknown. i really love the idea of surprises. i know i need to face my fears and stop staying in my comfort zone. anyways i’m excited for this next chapter and to experience the ongoing journey of wherever it’ll take us.
wow wow wow! what a great video, AMOR FATI! im loving seeing this change and shift happening, and im am so excited to watch it unfold. All the best you you, lots of love!
Can't wait for the next chapter ! Honestly in the spirit of "amor fati" , your story somehow was always evolving in the same direction as my life and my personnel revelations and discoveries, and i always enjoyed the content you brought up because it added another layer of thought and perception into what was going on on my life. And i'm very thrilled to see that happen again in the future. Good luck Nathaniel !
Such an amazing story Natz💕🙏!! Thank you for sharing your stoic journey. I've started my stoic journey at the middle of 2020 when my world was falling apart. So i can fully relate to your experience with embracing life as it happens. I wish you all of the best for your journey bud! 💚💚💚 much love from South Africa🇿🇦!!
Nathan this is awesome. as a flight attendant I feel you on all levels, especially due to the "you know what" ( i was furloughed but luckily back to flying now) keep sharing!
I’ve found amor fati very helpful. I’m 65 and over the past few years have changed enormously, (for the better), you carry on learning and growing your whole life, though I wish I’d discovered as much as you have at your age. I watched Yes Theory’s film yesterday and enjoyed both as you offered very different perspectives, thankyou.
I think its so incredible that we have been on this planet for so long, with thinkers like Plato, Hume, Kant spreading their thoughts and now we are able to learn and grow with a new generation of Philosophers, such as Nathaniel Drew, showing us that philosophy is very much still thriving and alive. It's amazing to see how you manage to inspire so many people and engage the them by simply speaking your mind. You're phenomenal. Talking of Latin phrases here's one of my favourite "Audentes fortuna iuvat"
excited for the changes to come!!!! you never fail to keep me entertained and as I grow and transform into different stages in life.. it’s nice to see that reflected in your videos and your own personal journeys. Keep up the good work!
I just started learning about film and videography and your videos will serve as such a great example of what to do right. Your audio is top notch, your visuals are so cinematic...if there's one thing you shouldn't change going forward, it's that: the gorgeous quality of your content. 👍
Its like we all are on this same journey. Few days ago i had this realisation that i need to stop expecting so much from life but to live today as much as i can. And then you dropped this beautiful piece and it was like universe saying yes! Thats the lesson. This was beautiful. Thankyou for sharing your experience. Loved it!❤️
Loved this video! I visited Albania myself recently and this video really captured and explained alot of the feelings, emotions and experiences that I had whilst over there. Albania is a truly beautiful place, with beautiful people and amazing culture! I couldn't have explained it better myself. Amor Fati 🙏
I'll be honest, I kind of felt detached from your videos while you were in Paris... but here you go again, a sense of authentic and interesting self-reflections that made me re sub and take interest again. P.s nothing like the Balkans to help solidify the transition from search from mental clarity to --->Amor fati.
Nathaniel thanks for letting people discover their behaviors, learn new things, broaden their horizons and thanks for making my day once more. Ps. Big fan of your concepts breakdowns.
i cant believe ive been watching ur videos for like 3 years now basically since i started college and honestly they're always a highlight of my day cant wait to see whats to come!!
Every single time I watch your videos I just feel really inspired. Amazing to see you evolving through life and sharing the experience and learnings with us, at least I feel more brave now to move forward to this new world as anything will ever be the same! Thanks Nathaniel, we're really special!
These videos always come at the perfect time for me...always when you talk about dealing with sh*t being a test of character, or how we put pressure on ourselves to be happy, which can make us unhappy in the process...your messages always, always hit home. Thank you Nathanial, and I am also a huge fan of you both on TH-cam and Skillshare.
12:12 Man... I feel so proud and kind of emotional right now, I've been here since 100k subscribers, I think it was around 2018. It's now 2021, and I'm sooo grateful to have been part of this journey, and so glad I get to see what's coming next. Growth is beautiful. I love your work Nath :)
i started watching you when i was 15 and i can proudly say you were a great influence. now i’m 18, and i continue to be influenced by your work and perspective. happy to b along for the ride :)
Again you are very inspirational!! Along with the saying “Follow your impulse” I will now add “Amor fati” to my repertoire of how I live my life! Keep inspiring !!

Love this story!! Combining life philosophy with the story from Albania was brilliant. Are we getting Amor Fati tattooed next or what?
Yes! So genius!!
Yess
Nathaniel: Definitely maybe
Bet you $100 won’t do it with me
Nathaniel has been YES-THEORIED!! :-D
I know your probably not gonna see this. But at the moment I am 12 years old and you are my role model. When I am older I want to be like you and my dad, travel the world and learn about culture. What I’m trying to say is at the moment I am teaching myself German 🇩🇪 and your videos are so inspiring and are encouraging me to learn even more. 😂. Can people blow this up so Nathaniel can see 😂
keep going!! don't ever lose that spark :)

Good luck!!

Yup!!
Love your work Leah

Nathaniel you are my inspiration.
Every one told me about how introvert I am. But deep down i am always like to travel and have love for different languages.
And you made me to believe that how amazing is to be an introvert.
The joy I feel when you upload video is immeasurable. Thank you Nathaniel
Amor Fati - love your fate, even the sour bits because they balance out the sweet.
"my body... it has that mark now, for the rest of my life" and the lights behind turned on- magical!
This sounds a lot like surrendering to the flow of life. A spiritual concept of non-resistance. It really is one of the highest practices. We can't always control the situations life gives us but we can control our reactions to them. I dig it, Nathaniel!
i like when you speak italian that you also immitate the gestures with your hands lmao
I like that too lol
He is really committed
Someone has just put Albania on their list of countries to visit👀
please don's stop. you are such an inspiration for me. thank you for everything you are doing.
I am so impressed with your Albania trip storytelling. I would love if you continued exploring the Balkans/Eastern Europe. So little is explored in this region of the world that is ripe w history and culture 😊
I could imagine this guy being the best grandpa tellin his kids about his adventures experiences and life lessons !
I'm 60, and I really love your videos. Wish I was where you are at now, when I was your age! You really are an old soul, young man 💖Vini, Vidi, Vici! That should be your motto 😉

I love 'Amor Fati" so much. It could not have come at a more perfect time.
First Pick Up Limes and now Yes Theory?! I need to know who your other YT friends are so I can go watch them too! Great video; I'm excited to see what's to come, whatever that is.
Nathaniel, I really want you to know that you've inspired so many of us to focus on being more intentional, kind, and going one day at a time. You're a great storyteller! Lots of love. 🌻
"The vehicle, that I´m in - my human body."
Wow, i loved that!
This is really inspiring. I loved it when you said "this is out of character for me", its really cool to see you out of character and just living life, and seeing you exciting over a man that invites you some coffee, or nervous about your first tattoo, etc. It´s just you living in the moment.
Life is so full of bad decisions. We shouldn't see them as bad decisions. Fear shouldn't hold us back. It's as if fear tears pages out of our life book. Loved the video. 🌻 Everything that happens to us happens and guides us for a reason. We are where we are in life for a reason.
You seem so much more happy in your more recent videos. Its really inspiring honestly.
Do whatever you want brother, you're a seriously inspiring person, you've gotten so many people to wanna explore the world, including me. Good luck
I AM ALBANIA AND I AM SO HAPPY THAT YOU SHOWED THE COUNTRY IN THIS BEAUTIFUL LIGHT AND VIDEO
Oh, I can relate so much to your spur in the moment tattoo. I got my first tattoo exactly the same way - it was a one day visit in Amsterdam on my journey and I fell in love with the city right away.

I need these videos to remind me of life's bigger picture. A resounding thank you to you, Nathaniel. Much love.

Just got to say, great content as well Riza 😊

these videos really almost leave me thinking into myself, your work is a sign of a true artist, thank you
A new chapter in your life im happy for you ,you have help me grow thank you so much
really love this saying, amor fati. and so important to hold close as life flows how it goes. hell yea for seeking discomfort and doing what you want to do, staying true to yourself.
literally had the thought last night of how long it’s been since we had a new video from you and then BAM my day has been made by this. grateful for the reminder to stop overthinking and to focus on the experiences.
Its such a joy for me watching your content
Absolutely insane seeing the transformation from mental clarity to amor fati!! So dope. Appreciate you and your content
You said absolutely correctly that attachments always bring sufferings. It is exactly what yoga philosophy teaches us. The less attachments you have, the happier and freer you are. Thank you for your content. It's amazing!
This was what I needed.
Maybe in a few years it will change again, but I needed to hear this concept. I've been through a lot as a person, and I've done all that I can to heal from those wounds.

I walked away from it all, and found a relative peace. Yet, in that peace, I found no answers as to what to do with myself.
And then this video shows up. Love of fate, Love what happens to you.
I was waiting for that external pressure to tell me what to do. It's how I lead my life for the past 28 years. I always balanced that negative pressure with sheer will.
Yet, I never really consider letting my love for what is to guide me. To let myself pave the way with the beauty I see around me. To let life do as it will, and I'll love it just the same.

Through years in life you helped me, be it way of thinking, planning or learning languages. After so many positive changes it feels great to know its only the beggining. Thank you for being you and keep going! Hello from Russia)

Philosophy + spirituality + realism is how I've personally been wanting to live life recently. So much in life is straightened out for you once you set yourself a clear vision and understanding of what life is and how you want your life to be. Also making sure that the process of getting to that point isn't influenced by unprocessed emotions within the body is sooo important.
Loved especially the last part of this video! Excited for change!
it hurts me how deeply i feel like i can relate to you...
also, whenever you decide to visit another country, Brazil would welcome you with open arms ❤️
Whenever Nathaniel uploads, l am always over the moon!
Rewatching this every now and then, and getting to see how my relationship with life has changed/softened. Thank you Nathaniel! :)
I think it's very interesting, because I feel for me searching for defining myself has kind of ended it accepting the continuous change. Following my gut has been unpredictable, but it never results in feelings of regret. Looking forward to see what this next chapter for you will look like!
'Amor Fati' is a central tenet of Stoicism. Pairs beautifully with their tenet of 'Memento Mori' (roughly meaning "Remember you have to die"). If you haven't explored that territory yet, do it. In particular, the books 'Meditations' by Marcus Aurelius, and 'Discourses and Selected Writings' by Epictetus are incredible.

Sound like amazing books ☺️
Love you man, i know those are strong characters but I think you've changed my life, thank you. I will watch anything you create, thank you.
I wish I could be this good in storytelling

Hello 👋
Firstly I would like to thank you for making your TH-cam channel and sharing with us your ideas, experiences, thoughts and feelings with us. You are always open with us on what you are planning and explaining things in a ways that we could understand your concept and ideas.
Secondly, I found your channel in a really difficult time in my life. I was lost, and didn't know what I wanted out of this life that I have been blessed with. I had to make one of the biggest choice that a person can make. Watching a couple of your videos about Journaling, answering questions, finding who I am. Little by little my anxiety grew and so did my stress but after listening to your words. Things started to click together. I was still worried but unlike before. This also inspired me to start looking at life in a different view and to find ways of improving my life style. I am still not sure about what my purpose is but one thing for sure I do know that enjoying every moment in the present and accepting things as they come without having this huge worry about tomorrow. Life become lighter and content was found. Finding happiness in the little moments helps.
Thirdly, I am an avid traveller. Always hopping from one place to the other but never staying there for too long. Mostly a few days. Your videos made me realise that I wasnt experiencing the true culture of the country and the idea of slow travelling was fascinating. And so was the concept on finding true fulfillment and peace in life.
Fourthly, never knew that two of my favourite channels would make a video together this was a nice surprise.
Thank you for taking the time to read all of this and thank you again for making your videos. Really I can't thank you enough. Have a good day!
ah i’ve been watching you for two years. and the changes you’ve been making in your videos excite me so much. i’m trying to do the same in a way. over attachment to outcomes have been something that’s really hurt me in the past. it’s caused me a lot of anxiety over the years. i’m really trying to calm down and enjoy what’s here and be excited for the unknown. i really love the idea of surprises. i know i need to face my fears and stop staying in my comfort zone. anyways i’m excited for this next chapter and to experience the ongoing journey of wherever it’ll take us.
This shift in your view of life is inspiring for me. Watching your videos is always special.
wow wow wow! what a great video, AMOR FATI! im loving seeing this change and shift happening, and im am so excited to watch it unfold. All the best you you, lots of love!
Just the way you talk makes me so excited about everything! :D
Its really bubbling with enthusiasm. :)
keep up the good work.
Can't wait for the next chapter ! Honestly in the spirit of "amor fati" , your story somehow was always evolving in the same direction as my life and my personnel revelations and discoveries, and i always enjoyed the content you brought up because it added another layer of thought and perception into what was going on on my life. And i'm very thrilled to see that happen again in the future. Good luck Nathaniel !
Been watching you from day 0, this one might be one of the most impressive narratives structurally.
Such an amazing story Natz💕🙏!! Thank you for sharing your stoic journey. I've started my stoic journey at the middle of 2020 when my world was falling apart. So i can fully relate to your experience with embracing life as it happens. I wish you all of the best for your journey bud! 💚💚💚 much love from South Africa🇿🇦!!
Nathan this is awesome. as a flight attendant I feel you on all levels, especially due to the "you know what" ( i was furloughed but luckily back to flying now) keep sharing!
You are sooo honest with your subscribers 👏
I’ve found amor fati very helpful. I’m 65 and over the past few years have changed enormously, (for the better), you carry on learning and growing your whole life, though I wish I’d discovered as much as you have at your age. I watched Yes Theory’s film yesterday and enjoyed both as you offered very different perspectives, thankyou.
Thank you. I really needed to hear this today. Wishing you all the best on the continuation of your journey. Happy growing / evolving!
I think its so incredible that we have been on this planet for so long, with thinkers like Plato, Hume, Kant spreading their thoughts and now we are able to learn and grow with a new generation of Philosophers, such as Nathaniel Drew, showing us that philosophy is very much still thriving and alive. It's amazing to see how you manage to inspire so many people and engage the them by simply speaking your mind. You're phenomenal.
Talking of Latin phrases here's one of my favourite "Audentes fortuna iuvat"
excited for the changes to come!!!! you never fail to keep me entertained and as I grow and transform into different stages in life.. it’s nice to see that reflected in your videos and your own personal journeys. Keep up the good work!
Absolutely loved this!
I now love the concept and life ways of AMOR FATI
I just started learning about film and videography and your videos will serve as such a great example of what to do right. Your audio is top notch, your visuals are so cinematic...if there's one thing you shouldn't change going forward, it's that: the gorgeous quality of your content. 👍
It's always comforting to see you strive through it all, much love and appreciation from one human to an other
That ending!!
Its like we all are on this same journey. Few days ago i had this realisation that i need to stop expecting so much from life but to live today as much as i can. And then you dropped this beautiful piece and it was like universe saying yes! Thats the lesson. This was beautiful. Thankyou for sharing your experience. Loved it!❤️
I loved this so much!! It's very much needed to hear this perspective on life--you always have a choice and that's the hardest thing
Love how you are mindful in everything that happens in life, this is a genius video made through awareness and mindset of growth .
Loved this video! I visited Albania myself recently and this video really captured and explained alot of the feelings, emotions and experiences that I had whilst over there. Albania is a truly beautiful place, with beautiful people and amazing culture! I couldn't have explained it better myself. Amor Fati 🙏
I'll be honest, I kind of felt detached from your videos while you were in Paris... but here you go again, a sense of authentic and interesting self-reflections that made me re sub and take interest again. P.s nothing like the Balkans to help solidify the transition from search from mental clarity to --->Amor fati.
Nathaniel thanks for letting people discover their behaviors, learn new things, broaden their horizons and thanks for making my day once more. Ps. Big fan of your concepts breakdowns.
i cant believe ive been watching ur videos for like 3 years now basically since i started college and honestly they're always a highlight of my day cant wait to see whats to come!!
best birthday present😩 thank you Nathaniel
Every single time I watch your videos I just feel really inspired. Amazing to see you evolving through life and sharing the experience and learnings with us, at least I feel more brave now to move forward to this new world as anything will ever be the same! Thanks Nathaniel, we're really special!
The way that this embodied what I'm going through in my own life!
Genuinely gasped when you first mentioned you got a tattoo. That's amazing!
These videos always come at the perfect time for me...always when you talk about dealing with sh*t being a test of character, or how we put pressure on ourselves to be happy, which can make us unhappy in the process...your messages always, always hit home. Thank you Nathanial, and I am also a huge fan of you both on TH-cam and Skillshare.

Man... I feel so proud and kind of emotional right now, I've been here since 100k subscribers, I think it was around 2018. It's now 2021, and I'm sooo grateful to have been part of this journey, and so glad I get to see what's coming next.
Growth is beautiful.
I love your work Nath :)
i started watching you when i was 15 and i can proudly say you were a great influence. now i’m 18, and i continue to be influenced by your work and perspective. happy to b along for the ride :)
Comfort is the enemy of growth. So glad to see youtubers not afraid to break out of old ways of doing things. Mad respect!
You're journey is so incredibly inspiring Nathaniel, thanks for sharing it!
Thank you! Every video leaves such a wise piece of eternity of life inside me❤️ Please, discover more⭐️
Again you are very inspirational!! Along with the saying “Follow your impulse” I will now add “Amor fati” to my repertoire of how I live my life! Keep inspiring !!
