Casey’s idea of being nice.

„When you share positivity out there it comes back in such a big way.

And that’s such a lame like tv-evangelist thing to say but the truth is like that is so meaningful.

It is so cheap, it is so inexpensive, it is so easy to be cynical, to be negative, to be someone who brings other people down and bring yourself down a lot is really easy to do.

Being nice, being positive, is really hard work – but you feel so much better at the end of the day.

It’s just like exercise. You don’t want to get out there and do your run, you do not want to go to the gym – but when you do it, you feel so glad, you feel so much better, you’re so much better off that you did it.

And at the end of the day, at the end of life, at the end of the year, the aggregate of having done that.
Having put in the work to be a more positive person. That’s really tremendous.

We have two kids now so I say all this in their shadows. The older I get the more I really believe in that and I work hard to achieve that every minute of every day.“

Casey Neistat on the Tim Ferriss Show: „How Casey Neistat Gets Away With Murder“ starting at at 1:33:00. What I love about the sequence is its honesty, realness and the intensity of how Casey delivers it. Listen to it – and you can’t help but immediately try to apply and work on it. Have a nice day!

Introducing #SpokenTreasures

I listen to podcasts – a lot. I rediscovered the medium a few months ago and this time I completely fell in love with it.

It’s a place where our scarcest resource unfolds it’s magic: time.

Sometimes the conversations last two to three hours. Just two people talking in absence of any pressure – without the necessity of having to „make a point“ quickly. It gets real, personal and to places we don’t get to that often anymore (at least in public).

For the same reason, why the magic is happening, it isn’t necessarily easy to access – it takes time. But as I do (enjoy) the hours in any case, I thought, why not offer a little shortcut now and then …

I will point and build on specific sequences that affected me in a way. Powerful thoughts and facts that really changed something – be it perspective or behavior, be it for a minute or maybe forever.

In other words: #SpokenTreasures
