Nuntnfancy, the fact that you take so much time to make videos for your viewers is amazing. Me and my dad love your videos and it is something we can watch together and bond as im approaching 18 and looking into buying a bolt gun him and I get to sit and watch your reviews as a tool to decide which one I should buy. I love the videos and admire your good character. Keep up the great work.

i bought a notebook a while ago to use in emergency situations. i keep it in my backpack that i carry everyday. well this is my second time watching this video and i wrote my first thing in this "emergency" note pad. i wrote "do some kind good sept 13 2014" everyday i try to be nice, but from now on, from this day forward i will make sure to go out of my way to help another. i work two jobs. one in law enforcement and the other in medical care. I always do what i can to help others but from now on i will do more than what i can. I WILL go out of my way to benefit others. i thought a lot about doing this and i decided i most likely will not write exactly what i did to benefit others because i don't want this to be a "HEY LOOK WHAT I DID!!" type thing. i'll just put a check mark so i know i did my duty that day. today at my job in the medical field i got back from my lunch break, and as i was pulling into the parking lot i saw a man with an o2 tank and a walker struggling to open the first of two doors to get into the building i work. it was chilly, raining, and just a straight up miserable day. i parked my car as fast as i could and started jogging to the first door this man was struggling with. at about 100 yards away i stopped jogging and watched the man walk through the first door. i knew if a went a bit faster i would have made it to that first door and i could have helped him but i just said "na he's got it"...at that point i felt like shit. i hustled and got through the first door in time to help this man through the second door. i looked at him in the eyes after we both passed through the second door and said "I'm sorry i didn't hurry up, i could have helped you through that first door" he looked at me, gasping for air, struggling to just stay upright and before i even gave him the chance to speak i walked away. i ran up three flights of stairs and got to my desk.... my first foot on the steps i thought to myself "i could have done more for that man" i could have helped him walk to the elevator. i could have carried his o2 tank for him...but i didn't. i held a door and thats it. i feel so ashamed.i felt ashamed the moment i walked away, but i still didn't turn back...i won't do that again. i will do the best i can to make sure i help out as much as i can. i won't forget the look in his eyes. they were red, watery, slightly shocked, and sad. next time i will make sure i walk away from eyes that are red, watery, slightly shocked, AND HAPPY!

H. Horn got a job at dairy queen. all summer worked at a semetary for 3 days a week cleaning and taking care of it with my grandpa for 5 hours a day. he gave me a truck completely unexpectedly for helping him. 86 ford stepside that we fixed together. Three days ago I went up to a cold war vet and told him thank you for your service. umm that's off the top of my head furfure I want to be a heavy equipment operator or a electrical engineer. Still in school with a 3.6. gpa for myself I do weight training, meditation and read philosophy books. just finished " The essential writings of ralph waldo emerson" ive had a girlfriend for 18 months, and ive been working for my grandma for free building a fence for her and some other stuff { She wants to pay me but I refuse to take it } and that's pretty much it. on my spare time I go shooting, hunting, fishing, and other outdoor activities. That's about it
@TheBrokenLife8 жыл бұрын
+Is mayonnaise a instrument When I was a kid I worked for my Dad (and sometimes Grandpa) on projects like that and it was for a set price (painting the fence is $20, or whatever). There isn't anything wrong with accepting a wage for honest work and I didn't grow up getting an allowance or anything like that so it was really my only means of income. On the flip side, if Grandma is married to the Grandpa that gave you the truck, you've already been quite handsomely paid. My family always worked in black and white though. If the truck was worth $500, you worked $500 off. Anyhow. I'm just saying there is nothing wrong with taking money for your labor. Even to this day if a buddy or my Dad helps me out with something I try to take care of them for doing it. It's a good way to make sure your friends stay your friends. --- I regard to your career goals, and I'm speaking as a Mechanical Engineer, you may want to lean toward your goal of equipment operator unless you have a means to pay for college as you go. The costs now are asinine (10 years ago my degree was about $35k and I lived at home the entire time... now it would be about $60k and that's still without housing costs) and unless you're able to really dedicate your life to your education and are smarter than most people, you won't finish in 4 years (few people can take 18 credit hours of hard science every semester and pass with good grades... it's just too hard to keep up on everything especially once you start stacking physics and calculus courses up on each other). So, unless you really have a passion for electronics and know that is what you absolutely want to do, a career in a trade may be a better option. Plus, no one can outsource running an excavator or building a road to some guy in China or India. On the flip side, one of the guys I went to school with walked away from a fairly high paying job as a heavy equipment tech to join the engineering side of things (according to him the day he decided to quit and go back to school he worked a 16 hour job in the top of a rock conveyor, with the flu, in a freezing rain storm... not much fun and it was the type of thing were he had to get it fixed or probably be fired) . He ended up going to work for Caterpillar right out of school with about a $20k/yr pay bump over his highest wage in the trades. No matter what you do, good luck!

im still clueless for what career i want to partake in. I want that money, and i would be willing to take a crappy job, if it paif well. There is so many options but they all require a extensive amount of school and its just stressful. I haven't really found anything i am passionate in. Nothing seems to interest me that much. Oh well, but yeah i lucked out on the truck it was totally unexpected. 86 Ford 4X2 stepside with 80 thousand miles, no dents, and in great condition was something i could never dream of, let alone attain for doing a few hundred hours of community service with my grandpa for free. I just picked p a job at dairy queen a few months ago and its nice to have some extra money for guns, truck stuff, adn just to have. everything is going great so far its just a lot of changes happening so quickly. I went from a gaming nerd who didnt have friends and never did anything, to hanging out with people, geting a job, driving, weight training, and all sorts of stuff. I just feel so greedy and i want more and more and more of everything, its just hard to balance it all and keep great grades while working, spending time with the people that matter to me, homework weightlifting and doing odd chores for others such as cleaning the roof. Everything just changed so fast. Anyway, do you think it would be best to wait a little bit, get a decent paying job so i can fund collage, and then go for the big bucks, or just strait out of highschool, get my AA when i graduate by taking collage courses my junior and senior year, and just go for it and pay off debt what one do you think would be best? because i honestly have no clue and sorry for the unorganized reply, i neglected my ADHD medicine today

Is mayonnaise a instrument Sounds like you're just a normal 16 year old to me. Just try not to spread yourself so thin that you're not having any fun. In regard to taking some time off between college and high school, I don't really recommend it (I took 3 years off in between) unless you're thinking of maybe going military to get your GI bill (free college is worth the wait). You're putting everything else in your life off by that period of time. So, if you decide that you want "a" degree, then start knocking out all of your general studies stuff for the first 2 years and then decide a major while you do. If you think you'd like a career in construction instead, try to get into that field right now (even if it's just hauling trash and pushing a wheel barrel) to see if it's something you really want to do.

When the family was getting up to leave (which I hadn't noticed) the lady in the group walked to me, gave me $4 and thanked me for the service, and for letting her grandmother enjoy her birthday dinner. Made my week.

Believe that others are better than you, and that you could be better than most. See small things in life, and make them important.

Not to say that anyone has to do this, but if you were touched by the story of the Marine spending some time with a sick man, anyone can volunteer at a VA hospital. I did for a few weeks (I did it as part of an optional assignment in one of my courses in college and I couldn't dedicate any more time to it than the course would allow for that semester) and it was a pretty gratifying experience. I do have to say that some of the patients didn't understand that I was a volunteer that had no influence over their care (not that they were getting poor care in most cases, but most of the guys were old, sick, and lonely so I was the nearest, or maybe only, sounding board they had) so be prepared to catch some flack if you do sign up. I also think it would have been easier if I was a vet myself. Then we could have some common ground for conversations. I also suspect that if you're interested in a career in the military or medical fields that it would be a good resume builder for a young person that is just starting out.

I believe that this is your best video, and also - this video (for me) goes hand in hand, with the sheepdog concept. The sheepdog concept is great for encouraging people to help one another, but I see it being misinterpreted too often. The message some people get is that you should be inches from the trigger at all times ready to be a hero, but, this is what a real sheepdog is. A sheepdog does good everyday, helping their fellow human. Not the action hero attitude, just a helper, and protector.

Hey Nutn, I did not have a positive father figure in my life and always looked to heroes from literature/comics/movies. You have become one of the many heroes that influences my life for the better and I hope the best for you, Veri and all of TNP. Keep up the good work!

Thanks, Nutnfancy. I think your point is well made. As aspiring sheepdogs, we all long for that burning building or car turned over in the creek but too often fail to seize the opportunity to unload that dishwasher. We can’t let the perfect be the enemy of the good.

You are a very good speaker nutnfancy. People should really take the time to watch these videos and embrace these values in their life. I myself would like to say I am not perfect either and I could do more. One of the most regretted facts in my life so far is how I treated others when I was younger. I can never take that back, no matter how much good I try to spread today. However, it keeps me motivated to do everything in my power to help others and go out of my way for them.

Nutn. Thank you for sharing your life with us. It's too often that I get wrapped up in my own problems, fears, tasks, etc. I added a daily reminder on my phone that will pop up every morning at 9am reminding me, to " Do some kinda' good. "

100% agreed Lt Col Nutn... My take on it is: "ENHANCE Life". It's almost become my tagline. So many ways to do it. Could be anything from saving multiple lives, to making someone laugh for a few seconds. It all does some kinda good. Heartfelt thanks for your heartfelt message

Wow, this video was a very very good one! I completely agree with this Philosophy. Man the part where you started talking about making your pet's life a good one made me tear up. I just recently lost my dog to cancer and although it wasn't preventable, not a day goes by where I'm wishing that she was still by my side. Making the best of your life as well as others is always what means the most in the end because any second yours or their life could end. Great Work Nutn, such a great message :)

Thanks for the vids. I always pick up my brass at the range, as well as a ton of other calibers that others didn't bother to pick up. At the supermarket the other day, there was an elderly man in line in front of me. The cashier was not very friendly but the gentleman seemed lonely. So i struck up a conversation with him. He went as far as to tell me 'thank you'. "Us older folks like it when younger generation takes the time to say hello". That made my day.

Every time one of my dogs passes away, it breaks my heart. But I wouldn't give up all the happy moments and times with them to escape that final loss. Living life, no fear.

Nutn seriously thanks for this video. I watched it on a day that I needed a good moral boost so your video did me some good. This is, in many ways, in my opinion, your best video ever because it is a message that if everyone lived according to, this world would be a much better place.

Very well done. My philosophy is" RANDOM ACTS OF KINDNESS" I try to do some random acts everyday. It makes me feel good. I know that the better I treat others, the better my life will be.
@Stargazer8814 жыл бұрын
your best life philosophy video to date. As an atheist I must say that I can not do anything but agree with your words here. Be the best you can be, you can never be perfect, but strive to be. And your environmental message was right at the hearth of what I always say when I have discussions with crazy super green people, be realistic and practical. Cleaning up after yourself when you are out in the great outdoors will do worlds more than eating organic lima beans.

home run, man. Ive said it before. The best part about TNP isnt the gear, its the mindset that you promote. I'm a flight instructor and i've had a mind for some time to join the civil air patrol. Now I think that I will and I'll call it my "some kinda good" for the people around me. Very inspiring.

Nutnfancy, I have learned so many things on KZbin, which is a great surprise to me, but clearly your channel stands way above the others. I’m confident that you receive hate-mail from time to time. Try to keep in mind that for everyone one of those idiots, there are hundreds just like me who really appreciate the time and quality that you put into your work. Cheers, Frank

Good stuff man. Pretty much sums up how I've lived my life for about 4-5 years now. A father for 3 of those years, and a husband for over 4. This is good reminder to soldier on and its nice to see so many other people out there live the same way. Hope to be able to shake your hand one day, nutnfancy.

+Nutnfancy, kudos for your videos and the time and effort you put into them. In a word, they're "timeless", unlike, unfortunately, some of the gear you review. I'm a relative newcomer to KZbin and I'll watch one of your videos, admire its relevance, then discover it was recorded many years ago. About that "timeless" gear comment ... I don't know how many times I've seen a glowing review about a piece of gear, only to find it's been discontinued. It's sort of like new TV series I like, only to find them soon cancelled while mediocre ones seem to go on forever. Chaplain Dave, your fellow "sheepdog", signing off.

I'm really happy to be apart of the nutnfancy community. I agree with past comments that you need a good amount of introspection and the ability to look in before you can look out. Thanks for all of your great content and know that you've had a huge impact on my life.

Gear, gun, knife review, or life philosophy they are great videos keep putting them out. Always a lesson learned even when you are not looking. To many life lessons are missed. I miss them everyone does. But I try not to take for granted what I have learned and it is great for someone like yourself to remind people about that. Keep up the great work. Drew
