Back to consulting roots for today, but this time in hindsight 🤓 A highly requested video since 2020… hope you find some value here ☺️🐢

[@Maria_Imaculada]

2020 the world goes into Panic and a star is born Taylor Bell / both thanks to COVID 19 this is proof of the saying that everything has its good and bad sides! Still cool Taylor I loved it 🤑

[@UnsolvedParadox]

Thanks for the insight! It's important to look back & take stock of what worked, along with what didn't.

[@alberteins3101]

Love you Taylor Bell❤

[@MichaelPingree]

One of the biggest risks here is falling out of love with your job that pays the bills and becoming enamored with the side-hustle that doesn't. It takes tremendous will and dedication to stick to the job while building the side-hustle (which can take years). Thank you for another great video.

[@CuriousInquiror]

It's so refreshing to hear someone clarify that their W-2 job is not a "9-5"!! When talking about passion projects and side hustles, too many folks talk about navigating a "9-5" job... the only time it's 9-5 is if you're working from 9 AM to 5 AM, which is not unheard of if you're working in finance, consulting or big law, which is why I prefer the term "W2" job instead of "9-5"

[@Ace_Madrazo]

Most charismatic, beautiful and intelligent female youtuber seen🧠wish u all the best tay

[@zephany]

This is my Effective Window for leaving a comment. I love to see hard-working and slightly-frazzled Editor Taylor occasionally jumping in with extra tips, context, or clarification. I fully believe that she is the hero that keeps the lovely Presenter Taylor shining!

[@denverdubois5835]

I love this post. You absorbed Taylor's excellent phrase and used it perfectly. Also, I agree with what you said!

[@letscirclebackgames]

I used to work as a consultant in the Big 4 for many years and started a side project (a card game for consultants) I was really excited about. I tinkered with it on and off for several months but once I had a pretty realistic prototype of my game in my hands, I knew I wanted to take it more seriously as a business so I left the Big 4 and got an actual 9-5 job. It wasn't my only reason to leave Big 4, but it was one of the big ones! I love having more time and mental space back to work on my game each day!

[@ALPHAKAZUYA1]

Right on time Taylor. My current job truly sucks and just listening to you this morning has given me some much needed positive motivation. Thanks for being my early sunshine today Taylor!!!

[@angusz_]

Thanks for sharing your experiences. Love the point on always keeping focus on the long term goal of staying in consulting for 2 years. Nice to see that you found your creative energy highest on sunday and seeing this posted on a Sunday even today!

[@kcdavis3812]

So happy you are making more content. I love your sense of humor and personality. You have a great presence on camera.

[@molecularbandit]

Need this. Trying to balance being a full time mom to 2 little ones, part time work-from-homer-er, while also building an exercise habit. Drop that knowledge!

[@ozatanvi]

Taylor, you're a master at creating videos that blend informative content with humour! Your videos are always a joy to watch, and I can't get enough of them! Keep up the fantastic work! 🌟

[@mayaautorino]

As someone who is just starting off in consulting in new york and just started a youtube channel... I am so glad I found your channel! Loved this!

[@IAmProcrastinating]

As an aspiring MBB FT applicant and aspiring content creator, your advice throughout the years has been awesome - thank you!

[@amichii19]

You're right, Taylor! I've been working on a side project for the last 5 months. I've been trying to implement that more and really need to find a focus day. Some days I just don't feel like doing anything. But small bits and pieces throughout the week can make all the difference.

[@Galbra1th]

Totally agree on the tip about finding a side hustle that ultimately energizes your "full time" role. I feel the same way about my YT channel, and find that as I engage and see growth with my channel, I feel even more inspired at work to be more productive so I can then make more time for creating!

[@alejandrorodriguez4189]

Starting my morning with a new video from Taylor , thank you for sharing this and hope you have a wonderful weekend 🫶🐢

[@vaibhavkumararya9952]

Weekends are incomplete without your videos. I just love watching them❤❤😍😍

[@requisitewhim]

Great stuff as usual. Your passion is infectious and inspiring me to follow in your footsteps

[@mansoor3159]

Taylor is so so so motivating and everytime she post's a new vlog it's makes my day instantly🤗💗✨

[@josephhall1049]

subbed when there were around 100k subs. the meteoric rise of that number is a testament to the effort that's being put in.

[@NorseMan633]

Taylor, your content is always so interesting, entertaining, and just fun. Besides all that, your smile just lights up the world. It's beautiful! Peace!

[@officialmyermusic]

You are now officially my lunch break-must-watch-a-video while eating youtuber!

[@rahulthaker5334]

Bravo Taylor! So much to learn about. Awesome Content, Keep going 🐢!

[@JenLauren]

PERFECT timing for me you have no idea!!! thank you for this!

[@mohitsoodbadlapur]

Ur body language on camera seems healthy

[@Author_I]

Taylor, I really like your videos. I also have an MBA in business and have many side hustle businesses. I love the business content... but also really enjoy the NY lifestyle content! So happy you are doing this FT.

[@Chris-ij8tb]

Great creative advice with efficient creation! I sometimes forget that video making and editing is itself art, but that advice is really helpful for me and music making. Nice video Taylor!

[@matthewwardrobe9588]

Really enjoyable video to watch as always. Interesting to listen to you talk about leveraging passion as this is something I use myself to balance my time between full time job and volunteering roles. Doing something because you wanted to do it can never be underestimated !

[@nathanyoder4509]

Thanks for the tips Taylor! Hope you are having a great weekend!

[@ChrisGaultHealthyLiving]

Awesome tips, Taylor! Keep being your awesome self!

[@lizconnollycoaching]

Thank you for sharing this perspective and your honest reflection of the challenges.

[@Josh_Kaye]

This is exactly the one I’ve been waiting for!

[@ironwelder480]

Thanks for this video. Great info. I am former CAD designer turned Project Manager at Construction Company, no regrets. Learning PM was my side hustle, now it is my Career.

[@sharvanidivekar6771]

Hi Taylor ! Love your videos ! You inspire ! ❤

[@travelfoodielove]

Omgg thank you I so needed this!

[@alan713812]

You are a consultant to all of us!! so you're already doing that job

[@ariyanhejazi]

Thank you so much Taylor for this video,excellent tips for M.C and KZbin . God bless you❤😊

[@kcnicdao6305]

I love the way you articulate yourself. You’re super engaging & have such valuable insights. Keep up the work!!! There’s no one making videos like yours & I love em (:

[@TaylorBell]

so nice of you 🥹 thank you so much!!

[@palmsi]

You are my first vlogger for me. I want to learn English more. Thank you.

[@user-tv4bo4ej2s]

Omggg thank you Taylor for your words of wisdom!!

[@raihana.onfilm]

currently trying to balance a 9-5 and growing my channel! Loved this video 🧡

[@ko_grindz]

I’m in the process of looking for my dream job. It’s been hard but your videos motivate me to keep going

[@ericlewis9472]

Your so well spoken and articulated your just genuinely fun to listen to

[@user-nv2yn2yc7g]

Hey Taylor☺️What’s new today? That you are telling this is really marvelous useful things, your channel increased and that’s great.

[@nancypettitt1211]

Thanks even at my age time management is always an important key to a balanced life. BTW...love the turtle.

[@Arham7cheema]

Your talking style is perfect and your conversation is also amazing everybody wants to watch your videos

[@iguana9173]

Really enjoyed this video Taylor.

[@modi5843]

You speak so naturally that I would never guess that you use a script. Do you mean an outline of key points? Would you do a "BEHIND THE SCENES" VIDEO of what a script looks like, your writing process, and if you read the script verbatim from some sort or teleprompter?

[@AFTstorm]

What a lot of aspiring entrepreneurs also have to realize is that sacrifices do have to be made. Yes, sometimes you will work a saturday night or a sunday afternoon when your friends are out and about. Thats is part of working for yourself. Does it have to be very weekend? No. What is important like you mentioned is that you take the time off when you feel like you physically or mentally need it. It’s imo the only way to have this be long term possible

[@FahazMemon]

Your video editing skill is exceptional. Simpler and engaging.

[@gilcimarlima7849]

Hey Taylor! Thanks for the tips… Besides my full time job, I have a side hustle job teaching English online which I really love 😎

[@mbizozo6271]

Finding that effective window is important!

[@gyoung4597]

Effective windows! Haven't tried planning for those! Thanks for the idea!

[@GrowingonVancouverIsland]

Interesting perspective! Looking forward to your next video on creator life and insights

[@AlisaMaxakova]

Taylor, thank you for the dose of motivation 💪💪💪

[@LaibaWorld7]

I am a regular viewer . I like your videos, how you explain each and everything. And your voice is very beautiful ❤️ , it makes my day . You are spectacular 😊

[@FeralFeminine]

Thank you for always doing the deep dive into your key talking points. I feel like so many on KZbin will just give the super high level, broad, generic point and leave followers asking “ok, and?” Thank you for all of the details!

[@titaniumffclub9122]

Fearal USA is hub of successful startups so do something great in this ecosystem. 🙏🙏

[@harrytrading]

"Wow, you are absolutely stunning! Your beauty is truly captivating. I can't wait to keep watching your videos and see more of your amazing content. I'm getting addicted to your channel!"

[@matthuang21]

This video makes me feel seen 👀Couldn't agree more, esp about leveraging passion to make it feel like less of a burden or "second job" while working on KZbin in my limited spare time

[@hnnhml]

Niceee I’ve been waiting for this!! Very much needed, been wondering about how you managed this since 2020 😁 Thank you so much for sharing! Couldn’t be more excited to have you as a fulltime youtuber now btw, I (have noticed and) love the increased content quantity (and quality, obv) 🙌🏻🐢

[@TaylorBell]

You are the best, thank you sm for sticking around 🥹❤️

[@ChuongNguyen-lt3zs]

Another good video. Thank you Taylor. You always beautiful❤❤❤

[@Denchik_Lite]

Finally, I am first🎉 Thanks for Video)

[@anikatabassum5212]

Brilliant and amazing dear Taylor❤

[@sherrylee5446]

Thank you Taylor. Hope to have your recommendations on books. ❤

[@luisdetomaso867]

I'm a pro trader who used to try to balance a corporate job with my trading. When I finally quit my corporate gig, my trading took off and I made more progress in one year than the past ten. I attribute it to the lack of mental distractions and increase of focus. I don't think people realize how much better you can get at something when your commitment is 100%. The number of creative epiphanies I had went up exponentially once I went all in on one project. I think a lot of it is subconscious. For example, when you are lying in bed at night, your brain has a single priority and is not spread across multiple tasks. If you wake up with a great idea, you can pursue it immediately and with full energy - instead of having to "go to the office" and interupt your creative flow

[@feelgoodherebyhind]

Love Love Love all the info. Thank you

[@randomfingerstyleguitar8458]

I'm 4 months in and honstely... Tips on just balancing Management on it's own would be just fine for me 😂

[@vidmades7820]

you are a professional in video editing, i like your work..

[@ggar9623]

i went all out with music, i dont have much money but i spend everyday playing with people and im happier than ive ever been, much more so than when i worked at a warehouse lifting furniture, and its not like i was swiming in money then either lol, i dont know if it has a lot to do with the video, but yeah, when you love something you become obsessed enough about it to put in the reps even when you dont feel like doing much, an instrument is basically like that, you "train" so you learn but youre having a blast while at it

[@HowardOfficial]

Great video today. I’m enthused to learn that I’m your 3rd oldest subscriber 🙂 Also, you indirectly taught me a new word today - that platitude you dropped about rising tide & boats is apparently an aphorism! Who knew 🤔

[@priyaljain8522]

Hi Taylor, I love your videos. But please also make more videos on day in my life, trader joes haul and coffee runs. Love exploring NYC with you!!!

[@droodle387]

Your vidoes are so god damn entertaining. How do you it. Wow. In today's age where highly produced and edited vidoes are less liked, apparently you're the outlier. Idk what it is but your style just makes me want more of it. You've cracked the code

[@TaylorBell]

Wow THANK YOU

[@PersianTravelista]

I needed this video so much because just today I felt like I was burning out on KZbin and felt very disappointed. This video made me dream again and motivated me ❤

[@titaniumffclub9122]

You must concentrate yourself towards startups because living in country which is hub of thoughts successful startups. If need help in this concern welcome then.

[@titaniumffclub9122]

Hello

[@avinash21899]

0:01 stop looking at me like that. 🙃🙃😂😂😂

[@theeditaesthetic]

i love your hair colour! also great vid :D

[@TaylorBell]

Thank you so much!!

[@anacardaable]

another interesting video!... also this "effective window" does actually make sense... I found if I did the other things I wanted to do after work, it wasnt very effective... however doing them at specific times it was much more enjoyable... ima start using "effective window" now (copyright taykbell) 😂

[@emiliaozan]

This is amazing thank you so much

[@mohitsoodbadlapur]

When we will have coffe together 😅

the way you start your videos I like it very much😄😄😄😄😄😄

[@proudlycanadian3023]

Part of me is just head over heels in/so deeply in love with Taylor Bell for some key aspects: 1). Her BRUTAL (REALISTIC) view of life. 2). Her ambition for greatness/success in life! 3). Her natural/authentic love for her friends/family! 4). Her intelligence, supreme genius and great knowledge on finance, life and spirituality! 5). Her objective maturity!

[@proudlycanadian3023]

Right now, I have decided to give wilful consent to let/allow myself to be guided by Taylor Bells' experiences-in other words, I see NEW YORK through her eyes! Also, I have learnt that she is of Croatian descent! This is very important for me who needs to solve the roma gypsy situation in my life!

[@proudlycanadian3023]

Another reason why I am so deeply in love with Taylor Bell: ITS A MAN'S WORLD, NOT a boys! ITS ABOUT GOING ON THE SAME LEVEL AS ELON MUSK, JEFF BEZOS!

[@alan713812]

Taylor's Day = my day!

[@philiplaycock8944]

Hey Taylor- Unless I’m going nuts, I could swear this is a repeat video!? Nevertheless I can watch you all day and night 😊x

[@pur3stownage]

I'm am electrical consulting engineer and sounds like very similar workload, some weeks are fine, others are brutal, no sleep, long hours, gotta get the job done. It's very exhausting!

[@terrysapartment]

On finances in future video - curious on your approach to Self-401Ks, HSAs, insurance, etc - since BCG probably had good coverage/deductibles

[@briantgross]

Thanks for the insights! What do you think your most challenging video to make was when you were balancing both jobs?

[@shotsndocs]

Awesome. The north star point was so helpful

[@TaylorBell]

Can’t say it without the point 👆🏼

Is that a new camera filming this video? 👀quality is 🔥
