Take a Walk
To See the Whole Video, Go To – Take a Walk
Below is a transcription of this video – Hey, this is Justin. I want to talk about the value of long walk and I’m recording this video inside of a commitment to record and share three thousand videos in the next ninety days. And I’m doing it for one reason, which really is to develop myself as an awesome communicator. What I learned about myself is I’m a person who loves to walk. So I go on for about an hour and forty minutes. It’s funny, if you’re seeing my videos I drop my camera, probably one out of every five videos. Probably get a better case for this thing so it doesn’t break at some point in time.
What I learned about myself is one, I like to get out, I like to feel free. And I do my best work when I’m actually moving. I think there’s a couple of different things. One, there is an experience of an abundance of time, I have an hour and forty five minutes to actually do something. I don’t feel rushed to cram a lot of stuff in. I got a ton of time. What I’m doing at this time is basically record videos and listen to audios so, I got plenty of time to do both of those. When I started going on these long walks, time actually feels like its expanding. For a person like myself, who’s pretty busy, I got two kids, have a full time job, doing three thousand videos. Got a lot of stuff to do, I think a walk is a great solution for getting the work that you want to get done. And clearing the head, you know I’ve heard from some people who I’d say I admire. I know Steve Jobs is an example of a person who did his best work and his best collaboration when he was actually walking. So, if you’re struggling, if you’re beating yourself up against the keyboard, if your having problems, just get out. Go on a long walk, for no extra reasons you’ll get some good exercise, but chances are couple of other things will happen. One, your head will get cleared, and two, you’ll probably get some great ideas to do something extra ordinary that you never gonna thought about actually doing before that. Make today an awesome day and we’ll see you on the other side.
