Appreciate you putting in “see your friends” - it’s too real thay nobody realizes that they need to be connected to others to be happy

[@VitaminV29]

Hearing you talk about everything I try to implement in my life was amazing. I haven’t used any media but KZbin for a years and I set a screen time limit thanks to your reminder. Thankyou for spreading things that everything needs to hear. It’s not just people our age addicted to our phones, is elders and kids too! I get puzzles from goodwill and take them back when I’m done We miss you in Seattle but you are thriving in New York. ❤

[@patsalas5170]

😘 thank you, very wise words from a younger person❤ celebrating my 7th decade this February and this message said to me...live today like you have a future ❤...exercising, eating well, sleeping enough, saving for big purchases, enjoying friendships, and having fun will be big rewards as we get older ❤❤

[@romielle]

Usually I am not the biggest fan of self help videos... but I really liked the casual yet informative way in which you presented the things. Also they were all things which are actually doable in every day life and which felt close to reality. I loved the way you spoke and really enjoyed this kind of content! you go girl

[@daniele5780]

Alia, loved this video format and how well organized and dynamic all the information was put together 🥰 thanks you’re awesome! I also think it suits you and your new years phase so much! (I’m also a listener from the WTJ pod)

[@ajtyna]

Alia, I recently discovered your channel because I was OBSESSED with nyc apartment hunting videos and you’re the only creator I started actually following 🩷 I love your content and your daily life in NYC, I even decided to visit NYC again after 4 years, and I live all the way in Poland, Europe! Thank u for motivating me to make this big step in 2024 ❤️

[@aliazaita]

wow that means so much to hear that! thank you thank you for your support ❤️

[@marynataskrzata]

O wow, high five from Gdańsk!:))

[@anaisanais1353]

It’s crazy bc this is literally me. I love watching nyc apartment video’s but it’s only Alia that I started following.

[@SunidhiKundlasfzr]

Girlll I needed this video so much, it's so helpful and informative. This morning I was reading "The Bhagavad Gita" (it's a Hindu scripture) and it said, "For those who have conquered the mind, it is their friend. For those who have failed to do so, the mind works like an enemy." This resonated with me so much and your video is a clear sign that this year I need to work on this. Thankyou so much Alia for all the work and effort you put into your videos❤️

[@Evelyn-yp2qq]

Alia, I just discovered your channel today, and I am BINGE watching your videos! I love the self-development, humbleness, and recipes shown in your channel. I appreciate KZbinrs like you. Thank you for sharing and putting yourself out there💗

[@NeleApril]

I have been following you for at least the past two years now and I love to see you growing and evolving your content here in KZbin. At first I thought it would be more or less the same with all the other motivational videos that pop up in my feed for 2024 but I really liked the fact that you did you science based research ❤ I wish you have an amazing year and continue being you, you are such a lovely person 😊 lots of love from Barcelona

[@DoeRaeMe]

Same girl, same! Been here watching the journey since the beginning ✌🏼

[@purvigadia]

Wow, this is such a kind comment. I'm so glad to see so much positivity even in the comments section of this channel. I hope I receive such love some day too from the community.

[@aliazaita]

so glad you resonated with the video! 💗

[@melikekurt4200]

As we entered the 2024, I had questions in my mind and you helped me to shape my goals. Loved this kind of content! Hope you will create more often 💌 Love you and your content since the beginning! ❤

[@ozatanvi]

Always pumped for your videos, and this one was no exception. Your inspiration is like a breath of fresh air! Loving how your content evolves, and it's been a joy watching you grow over the past two years 💖 Wishing you an incredible 2024. Keep being your awesome self! 🚀 Hugs, kisses, and loads of love from India! 🤍Cheers to more growth & good vibes!

[@deeal8339]

Love how this covered all the bases. Such simple things in theory, but we’ve slowly moved further from these practices

[@ToRung]

I am pleased to meet you💖😍🌹

[@sylwia.l]

Having hobbies is the best thing. I’m trying a lot of things, but my favs are niche perfumery, painting, making jewellery, reading and just having fun! Great video 👌

[@DoeRaeMe]

I started painting end of last year and I’m 💯 keeping it this year 🎨

[@Dex8954]

Excited to see more of your adventures in New York this year. Thank you.

[@rh0daaa]

So cool to see your growth as a youtuber through the years! Youre almost to 400k!!!

[@samarkeli]

I'm a new follower and binge-watching all your videos now and listening to your podcast. Love your work! Thank you for the inspiration

[@JoannaWalker]

I didn’t click on this at first cause I thought I know what it was about. Thank you for advertising it in your new video. I love this so much! When you ask about “what makes you happy” I actually wrote “exercise” with parenthesis saying “not during but I know I feel better and will get to a better mindset in a long run.” We are really aware 😂 just the effort to put it. Thanks for the reminder 😘 great job 🎉

[@kleo78patra]

Now this is one of the most helpful and interesting videos I have watched in a while. I have recently discovered your channel and ever since been OBESESSED with your videos!!! They are so real and so relaxing to watch!💕 Keep in the good work Alia you’re doing absolutely amazing♥️♥️

[@katieailin]

[@aliazaita]

Love hearing that!

[@aurorab94]

Saying hello from Uruguay! Love your videos! Im about to start the gim as well and this was super inspiring 💚✨

[@kathlynmary]

This video is so different than your other videos which I absolutely love! Much needed reminder so thank you! I can listen to you everyday so I'd love to see more of these types of videos :)

[@klaudiazav]

I think i'm going to start treating going on social media and scrolling on my phone as smoking a cigarette/ having a drink. I don't know if going on my phone is as bad as smoking or drinking, it's definitely not good for me in the quantities that I do it and it's definitely taking me further from what I want to be doing and it's an unhealthy habit. So maybe if I tell myself that being on my phone is as bad for my brain as smoking that will label my phone as bad and I will see it as a self destructive behaviour that i do not need

[@juliestaub9081]

Thank you for sharing your thoughts on the active pursuit of happiness., Alia! This format suits you well. 😊Powerful reminders and easy to follow roadmap. Everyone can benefit from this information. ❤

[@itsgabrielaarias]

Alia, thanks for your sharing!! I started watching your videos 2 months ago and you really inspired me from many perspectives. I love your life vibes and those positive thoughts so much. By the way, I'm learning English right now and your voice and accent are so comfortable, so I often try to imitate your speaking style (shadowing). haha. I wish I could be better in this new year, too! I'll try these methods to help me achieve this goal. :))

[@ligiamarquesz]

Such a nice video!

[@lizzyrocks2100]

Happiness is subjected to external control around you. True peace is within you-- consciousness, we have to learn to prioritize our inner peace so when things around us are not going the way we want it doesn't move our true inner joy.

[@user-mi9mq6wf3x]

you're the happiness

[@jeannetteperez8050]

[@itsiasminac]

What camera do you film with?

[@MariaMartaAlb]

❤❤❤

[@rrukh]

[@sarahjane4772]

Good subject matter but rather than sit downs, I like it when content creators mix the ideas still in a vlog format.

[@aliazaita]

mmmmm okay I am contemplating that kind of video structure for future ones! 😊

[@sarahjane4772]

☺️ yaaay thanks for considering my feedback. I def understand all of the efforts that go into any video and know that doing something different also helps keep the creative juices flowing so supporting regardless 💖
