Winners never quit and quitters never win

I can surely say that biggest strength of him is the grasp he has to tell a story, his work is amazing and his lifestyle is super inspiring.

All stories that he finds or creates are great. The scariest day of his life, marriage confessions and his devastation after doctors told him he may never run again (Scroll down to read more about it).

It’s important to make sure that you’re not talking to people corny( like “What do you think about today’s weather?”). Everyone can same thing. Find a great story and tell it. Very often nobody cares if the way you tell your story isn’t perfect, as long as it’s a great story.

Max (addict of him) told me that I should check out this guy by the name of Casey Neistat’s Youtube channel. So I did and thus began a week of being completely immersed in most of the video blogs Casey has created.

Casey Neistat — the craziest storyteller (and motivational speaker in disguise)I’ve ever seen.

I don’t know him personally but I really like the guy. He is someone whom I would want to be friends with. He is a freak, with a brilliant and kind mind and I respect that. But as an artist, I am concerned about how an inspiring person like Casey Neistat, who reaches a tremendous number of young people, could cause the state of art to really take a nosedive.

I can say for sure, that you will watch all of his videos. And here are some reasons why:

  • He is unique.

The independently created, daily video blogs he makes for several years are genius. It’s important to know what you’re doing and why but it doesn’t have to be perfect. The best things very rarely are perfect.Casey often messes up, stumbles over words, slips, slams doors, cuts open packages that end up cutting through his products. Whatever. Push on.

  • He does the things we wish we did.

We all dream of doing big things — traveling around the world in first class for free, creating things we’re passionate about, and losing ourselves in a play-place of a workshop, but for most of us the fact is life gets in the way. We make excuses for ourselves that our family, job, and responsibility keep us from taking risks and accomplishing our goals. It’s always later….tomorrow…someday, but honestly it doesn’t happen.

The most dangerous thing you can do in your career, the most dangerous thing you can do in life is to play it safe.

Casey is doing these things. We see his passion, his love, and his drive and it’s contagious. We’ve wanted it and we haven’t been able to do it, so we root for him — he’s our hero and every new video he shares, every new adventure he goes on, we see a little bit of ourselvesin him.

  • He doesn’t care

Casey is a that guy who really don’t give a fuck about what other people say to him, he would get criticized and mocked on social media for some cases but he never waste time on talking about it or make videos reasoning about it. I have seen many You Tubers goes and talk about Casey but I have never seen him doing a video against people who mocks him, basically he doesn’t care.

  • He is more than just YouTuber

One man who fits the bill in terms of everything I need in a content creator. His work is captivating, well shot, and clever. A large part of it centers around who he is as a person and the values he holds near to his heart. He is interesting, honest, energetic, talented, smart, confident and most of all, original. Casey Neistat should be the future of the internet because, the way the world is headed, we need as many sincere and well grounded film makers as possible.

I don’t actually want to tell you all about him. You have to go watch by yourself!

P.S. A bit more

Casey Neistat has raced 60–80 miles a week for the past decade .

He completed 24 marathons, four full distance Iron Man races — that boast an impressive 140 mile distance, 5K races, 10K distance runs, sprint triathlons, and Olympic-distance triathlons.

And who is your inspirator?
