how to miss all the important things in your life.

Today we travel from NYC to MA and I show you how I run the Iron Snail brand. We're also looking at the Iron Snail Mammoth jacket and the prototype!
I have no idea what to put in these descriptions yet. Have you seen anything good on TV lately? Taylor and I have been watching Shōgun and we just finished the Avatar reboot which was pretty good.
Hello again. today we try to answer the question of why im so bad at time management and productivity. but at the same time I feel productive so what even is the question.
if you like the mammoth you can check out www.theironsna... !
Bye.
Can I interest you in a hot bowl of following ME and The Snail in other places??

thanks for watching! lets hope I can beat a 3 month turn around for the next vlog!

[@strimmerj4384]

Watching this with my mammoth on, I got a little emotional. Thank you for putting in so much work. I could only imagine how difficult and absorbing it could be to work, do KZbin and coordinate design, then manufacture a jacket of this quality, and I truly appreciate it.

[@garyv1483]

Man I love this video so much. From being open and vulnerable about how work has impacted your life, to the last few seconds of your mom doing the classic mom thing where she’s so proud of you for something that you’re proud to share with her, I’m really really happy for you dude!

[@martinjba211]

Damn, seeing how much you put into your work, to you try to improve yourself, to the payoff of the Mammoth at the end really made me hopeful. I had moved from Staten Island to NH this last summer, and I still feel like I'm doing too much and not enough at the same time. I remember buying the Mammoth while I was back home at dinner with my dad, and I'm so glad I got it. I'm looking forward to all the things the Iron Snail has in store!

[@jasonkrasowski4673]

I heard a quote somewhere that always sticks with me. “ success is never owned, it’s leased. And the rent is due, everyday.” Keep grinding buddy, you’re killing it. Hope to get my hands on one of your pieces one day soon.

[@kevkevdellarocco8681]

This is so real. Anyone who has started a small company out of nothing to do something they care about will understand this all so well. Months of non-stop work, juggling who to disappoint the least, the numbness, the tiredness...that sweat equity stage is an absolute grinder. But it's weirdly worth it. And getting past it is so damn validating. Cheers!

[@leoeli577]

It was lovely to see some behind the scenes stuff! Got a few happy tears at the end tbh, 84 seconds is neat. I hope you get a chance to relax some more soon. Maybe a vacation? Sometimes the most productive thing you can do is rest. I don’t know, just a strangers perspective. Glad you've got your family and Taylor to help you through stressful times! You are doing a great job btw. Take care! And don't worry about the frequency of videos here, they are a delight whenever they pop up! Your viewers will be here. (I sound like a worried grandpa, sorry haha)

[@kylemccaffrey3003]

Can we get a Michael Kristy playlist video in the future? You’re listening to some absolute hits and we would love to hear more about your taste in music/ what you’re currently listening to! Keep up the great work!

[@Nalot56]

You make some of the best videos on KZbin in my opinion. Please please keep it up.

[@farris.bueller]

Michael!! I have been following for a long time now and want you to know I'm sending all the support and vibes your way Sir! I enjoy the main channel content but these "life" cuts are so good. Also, we all get steamrolled by life sometimes but you're a good man. Learn, adjust, and move forward! Take care.

[@__Ted]

Ayy, second channel upload. Definitely gonna watch this with dinner later.😌👌

[@betznern]

When you're in a rush to film, you could probably speed up by not placing your camera in a scenic spot and walking away from it. Lol jk. Great content. I relate to this a lot. I left a pretty physically and mentally demanding job at the end of 2022. I spent the 5 years before that working 4am to 6pm pretty much everyday. Needless to say, that didn't leave much time for anything else. My life has been a lot better since making that change. Also, i like how frantic everything is in this video. I think you did a great job showing the intersection of your busy job and warp speed mind.

[@betznern]

Ps your mom's gasp and saying "84 seconds" warms my heart.

[@RedmondMonk]

I have been watching your videos for a while. I want you to know how proud of you I am.

[@mattisoncrowe79]

Inspiring cinema veritas, Michael. Your previous video encouraged me to take that leap and I am. Stay tuned. Also congrats on the snail. I learn a little more from every video you make. Thanks for sharing it.

[@kurtm7329]

can't serve 2 masters.

[@DecoyJeff]

This was beautiful, you're both beautiful, the Mammoth is beautiful!

[@joepesci15000]

Keep pushing. Congrats on your success thus far! ✊

[@Vwall007ST]

Proud of you Michael, you’ve come a long way! ❤👊🏻

[@calebtate6723]

Y’all lookin eternal sunshine on that beach

[@knifenutsdave]

Really loving my Mammoth, and I hope its success gives you the confidence to slow things down a bit with work.

[@saroshmawani6801]

This was beautifully made, Michael! Such a wonderful story that teaches an important lesson. Keep at it!

[@RoadToHeritage]

Dude you’re inspiring! That end of the video! Congrats on all the success you deserve it! Love how you story tell! Inspirational man!!!! 😅🎉🎉

[@clobberonline6812]

A snail moves slow but determined !!

[@christianamato4193]

Ayyyy been a minute since I heard “Handlebars” keep it up Michael you’re almost out of the dip

[@icreyes3]

The struggle bus is real!😮

[@habl00pep]

Fun guy out in the woods 😊

[@Bdigital9482]

Embrace your lack of time management, I get such anxiety about my punctuality that I’m actually unable to get a lot of stuff done because I’m always worried about where I have to be at a certain time and will arrive an hour early kicking myself.

[@shootjase]

havent watched the entire video yet but that mammoth looks amazing. it was sold out by the time i remembered to preorder. like, 3 hours after launch. good on you!

[@TheTaleofTheIronSnail]

thank you!!

[@calchurchill2730]

Forest Park might be a closer place to shoot rather than Staten Island depending on where in Brooklyn you are!

[@jonathanvu769]

This is amazing. Seeing all the time and effort you put into everything you do, and especially the Iron Snail, makes me so motivated to do the same. Getting a little more of a look into your life is so inspiring, and makes me feel so proud to support the Iron Snail and own a jacket! Stoked for the future, can't wait to see where this journey takes you!

[@eagleeyes9770]

Love getting behind the scenes! Your website ‘hiccup’ gave me heart failure, but so glad I got one!! Amazing jacket at an amazing value!! I look forward to whatever path this snail forges 🐌

[@NormanRabaya]

Congrats, Michael! Been watching you for years!

[@markusholmes585]

thank you for this video and the flobots bit

[@CrossingFoggyMountain]

Great work Michael. And how cute is your mom at the end? Keep it up

[@loo9407]

Listening to meek mill wasn’t expecting that one😂😂. Love the content!!

[@corensam]

Very fun being on the other side of that website day-of and then seeing your side now. My Mammoth just got delivered today and I can't wait to get home to see it!

[@pablox3783]

Hard work pays off! Well done Michael. Couldn’t happen to a nicer person ( or i may be wrong and behind the camera you are an absolute diva monster, actually this reminds me of how Kanye started) 😎

[@formerspliff]

thank you for being so authentic and candid

[@MushyMonkey]

Cool vlog bro!

[@billtodd7693]

Great video! I enjoy how every now and then you say something really profound in a very nonchalant way. By the way, I'd keep that Nat Geo photographer if I were you. Just sayin'.

[@lillydav10]

Honestly you should have your own Spotify playlist 😂

[@paololololol]

‘Oh it’s head East’ hahahahah

[@declanhayes7226]

AM? A man of class

[@nunezale]

"Go-go gadget transition" was the best part.

[@witte2702]

lovely

[@sunjayjagath]

Just Amazing how much u hav had 2 do & coordinate 2 get it all 2 come 2gether for us ur loyal Iron Snail followers.. thanx 4 taking us all along & sharing yours, Taylors & The Iron Snail journey,..👫🏻🐌🧥👏🏼

[@nathandallas4878]

I'm running late spends 20 min talking to himself in car while not driving

[@Stealther]

Will the special edition be this spring or not until the fall?

[@SOHCorsa]

Bro. I’m not missing my best friends wedding for work. You don’t need time management, you need to set your priorities straight. Friends care about you and love you. Work doesn’t.

[@TheTaleofTheIronSnail]

It wasn’t a decision of wedding OR work it was the miscalculation of time - i left still able to be on time/early but with less leeway and then proceeded to hit like 6 hours of traffic - the total drive is usually no more than 5hrs with traffic and this one was almost 11hrs That’s the only reason to me it was a time management thing and not priorities! That being said though before i was completely working for myself i really really struggled saying no to anything because i didn’t want to let anyone down anyways your last sentence couldn’t be more true, ty!

[@darbyevert828]

​@@TheTaleofTheIronSnail I feel your core issue is running an outerwear company from Brooklyn that requires you to regularly drive into and out of the city. So your constantly losing time to unpredictable traffic

[@MegaMarlon0123]

You would be rich if it wasn’t for NY, so expensive there 😒, small apartments and expensive

[@fabsecond306]

Are you British?
