When I was a kid, my family didn't really go on vacation, and for most of my adult life, I didn't really leave L .A.

But that's changed in the past few years, and fortunately I've been able to travel quite a bit.

And it's a little embarrassing, but every time I go to a new place, I want a little keepsake.

So I've started buying fridge magnets.

And I don't know what it is, but when I'm picking one out,

and when I put it on my fridge next to the other places that I've been to,

it just feels good it's just a little thing that I do that makes my life a little bit brighter.

Now modern life is full of big stuff and we are encouraged to focus on big stuff.

Career, relationships, money, house, fitness, status.

Who am I and what have I been put here to do?

That's a big one for me.

Now it's important to have goals and direction but major milestones are rare and they require a ton of time and energy.

You can't get a promotion or buy a house every day.

And science has found that tiny pleasures like watching the sunrise

or drinking coffee with your dog or getting a magnet in another country are what actually predict stable,

long -term life satisfaction.

So me and the boys came up with a list of the little things.

89 things that make us feel good.

Things we do, things we wear, things that we often take for granted but are actually sick as if you stop and think about it.

Things that just make life feel a little richer.

And also just some cool that we're on right now.

Number one, spraying stuff with a hose.

Talking about your car, plants, the siding on your house.

If you can do it barefoot, even better.

Number two, morning coffee outside.

You don't have to set intentions or meditate.

You can, but you can also just sit there and enjoy some time with your dog.

Number three, dogs.

Number four, becoming a regular somewhere.

It feels good when a semi -stranger knows your name.

Say what's up to the other regulars.

That's how you get casual friends.

I'm talking coffee shop, hardware store, ideally not the emergency room.

Number five, a garage chair.

It is a comfortable chair in your garage.

Number six perfectly chilled melon on a hot day number seven a nice park

i used to complain about how my city didn't have any parks

then i realized it actually has a lot of them i just didn't know where they were

and i never went to them you're already paying for parks

you might as well go number eight free samples number nine

when someone throws something at you and you catch it and then and you gotta like play it off,

you gotta be like, of course I could call it that.

I'm not surprised by that at all.

So I'll just go move it.

You turn around, you're just like, yes.

Number 10, cracking your knuckles.

Number 11, going with a friend while they run errands.

Zero stakes for you.

Your only responsibility is to be 100 % comic relief, but you get to siphon off a little bit of that satisfaction of getting something done.

And nine times out of 10, there will be snacks.

And if there aren't snacks, are you running errands with a friend?

Number 12, wearing a watch.

Number 13, when you and a person that you just met decide to do the same handshake thing right off the bat.

There's so many options now.

When you both decide to do the fist bump or the fist bump to smack, that's my favorite.

That is, fist bump to smack is the LA millennial go -to.

Number 14, wiener schnitzel.

Why aren't there more hot dog restaurants?

Number 15, finding a barber you like and developing a haircut for your head.

I've been working on this one for about two years now with the same guy, actually two guys.

We aren't quite there yet, but we are making great progress.

I'm learning the language.

Last time I said, Frankie, let's add a little bit more texture on the sides.

Is that a thing? he goes, yeah, dude.

I go, great.

Number 16, 30 -minute walks after your dinner.

Good for digestion.

Good for relationships.

Good for your brain.

Number 17, clean sheets.

No -brainer.

Number 18, weekend matinees.

Number 19, a parking spot that opens up right when you need it.

But be aware of how long you are camping out in a row to wait for a parking spot.

It goes from being like a prepared dude to being a loser real quick

it's fine line number 20 cold drinks i was just in europe for a few weeks during a heat wave

and it really made me appreciate cold stuff

so much uh culturally i love america there's some political stuff

that i don't agree with that's going on right now but culturally this is my spot dude Dude.

Number 21, a good stretch.

Number 22, plants.

Inside plants, outside plants, public plants, private plants.

They are cool as hell.

Some of them smell good.

Some of them are beautiful.

Some of them can kill you or your enemies.

Number 23, finding something that you swear is going to be a wave that your friends disagree with you about and getting in early.

I swear, by next summer, you guys are all gonna look like f*ing idiots.

Number 24, taking photos with a camera that is not your phone.

Pulling out a little point and shoot starts a conversation.

People get excited.

Cameras like this that are dedicated feel like you're capturing a moment.

Phone cameras feel like you're collecting evidence.

Number 25, ripping a good fart.

190

A lot of American brands moved production overseas in the mid to late 90s to early 2000s.

191

So if you do a little research, you can get really high quality American made clothes for pretty cheap.

192

And a lot of this stuff flies on the radar.

193

This is 100 % true.

194

As we're recording this video, my mailman, who I said hi to, brought three packages from eBay that I'm pretty sure has 90s Abercrombie.

202

And it feels so good picking out the perfect pair based on my mood

203

and what I'm wearing or the event that I'm going to.

204

Originally, in my travels, I was gonna try

205

and pick up a pair of nice sunglasses in every city that I went to, but that is so hard and so expensive.

206

So that's, magnets are good.

207

Number 54, polo shirts that are kinda too small.

208

I don't know if you guys have noticed, but that's become my uniform as of late.

217

218

One thing that I don't acknowledge or celebrate enough is milestones and anniversaries.

229

231

that it's like an adhd thing where

232

if you have plans at some point in the day you won't do anything before

233

that and i think i might have adhd because i definitely do

234

A lot of stuff smells bad and a lot of stuff costs money.

245

When life throws you a free good smell, you savor that.

246

Number 63, listening to an album the entire way through.

247

In our modern algorithmic culture, we're constantly fed mixtapes made by a robot.

248

And I think it's fun to hear how the artists intended the order of the songs to go

249

and this song goes into this song.

250

And one album that I am really into right now is The King of Having Fun by Medium Build.

251

So here to share five little things that he's on right now, my friend, Nicholas Carpenter, a .k .a.

Medium Build.

256

One thing, I'm going for runs, getting outside every day, at least a couple of miles,

257

just to sort of get the demons out of my head but I'm not trying to get too trim.

258

I'm not trying to influence anybody or be super cool or get hit on.

259

So I'm eating ice cream every day.

260

Three, I've been doing a thing called raw dog in the car ride, which is not having anything playing.

261

262

Let your thoughts wander, which leads me to my next thing.

263

I've been calling old homies.

264

What I'm trying to do is call them for five minutes, say, hey, what's up?

265

How are you doing?

266

267

So that's four things.

268

My last thing is probably the lamest thing I've ever said or done, but I recently got into ball golf.

269

Now I've been a famous disc golfer for years.

270

I'm ball golfing because being bad at something for three hours is good for your self -esteem.

271

Realizing that sometimes that ball is it's gonna go wherever it's gonna go.

272

All right, those are five tips to have a great life.

Что такое техника Shadowing?

Shadowing — это научно обоснованная техника изучения языка, изначально разработанная для подготовки профессиональных переводчиков и популяризированная полиглотом доктором Александром Аргуэльесом. Метод прост, но эффективен: вы слушаете аудио на английском от носителей языка и немедленно повторяете вслух — как тень, следующая за говорящим с задержкой в 1–2 секунды. В отличие от пассивного прослушивания или грамматических упражнений, Shadowing заставляет мозг и мышцы рта одновременно обрабатывать и воспроизводить реальные речевые паттерны. Исследования показывают, что это значительно улучшает точность произношения, интонацию, ритм, связную речь, понимание на слух и беглость речи — что делает его одним из самых эффективных методов для подготовки к IELTS Speaking и реального общения на английском.
