The Things That Matter

Sterling's Parody: • How to film like Matt ...
Sterling's Channel: goo.gl/eiXXyF
Full Episode: • It Doesn't Hurt to Ask...
Getting started is often the hardest step. When you’re setting out to create or learn something new you’re going to fail, you’re going to screw up & make mistakes.
Don’t kill people’s dreams. If someone comes to you with an idea we need to encourage & support each other. We need to push each other to learn, improve & create.

Thing that matters: Persistence. Never Give Up.

[@ShaneCrazy]

Facts

[@louisenaude4467]

I wear an elephant pendant every day, to remind me to persist.. and i know it sounds silly but the saying of How do you eat an elephant... That got me through the year I worked full time and managed to Cum my honours degree. Ever since then i wear the elephant pendant to remind me to persist towards my goal and take it one step at a time. As long as the direction is correct you'll get there

[@dbalotin]

So Matt... how is it to know that you're "The Rock" for somebody?

[@mattdavella]

Pretty damn cool.

[@thedefaultpodcast8064]

Hey Matt, just want to say it’s incredible that you’re able to not only recognize potential, but also enable it in this way. I’m a good friend of Sterling’s and I know how much it means to him. Sterling inspires me, and since you have so inspired him, I guess that means you’re an inspiration to me too. You’ve done a real good thing. Keep on doing it.

[@mattdavella]

Thanks JR!

[@sterlinggrinnell]

Thanks josh. Come back to Colorado

[@CurrentlyHannah]

I totally giggled when you said "crispy voiceover" hahaha. I loved the interview with Sterling too! I got a lot of value out of it.

[@christianharbin7979]

That’s good juju, Matt! You opened a door for someone, so I won’t be surprised when more doors open up for you! Love your channel! God bless from Alabama!

[@mattdavella]

Does juju make me run faster?

[@christianharbin7979]

Matt D'Avella Lol it may. Let me know :-)

[@nehalgohel842]

Is it just me or we all want that "Matt D'Avella" workout video? :P like if you want! So he can see.

[@jyotisen6283]

Yes. He has guns

[@mauro7v797]

Biceps biceps

[@FirstnameLastname-vf9rp]

[@LucasGuanes]

A great man showing his greatness by the way he treats "little" men. Can't wait to listen to the podcast

[@Naeem_El]

Wow Matt that was so nice and awesome of you. Your really are a wonderful person Matt.

[@namelsess93]

Andon Christian El I wonder if he would have done it without all of the social media pressure...now that would have been actually nice and awesome.

[@Jartosz]

I just wonder how many of us watch Matt only because of how cool of a guy he is

[@Barys41]

I love how you can turn things that everyone else should see as stealing or hate to somehting meaningful. You really show us that there is always something good to find.

[@user-rs6ef6ch1c]

How nice of you! You made his day (and mine)! So true what you’re saying about helping and encouraging each other.

[@pamelaupchurch1174]

Matt, this video is so awesome. I’m old enough to be your mom. But my children are your age. Thinking about others is so serving. Thank you for being an inspiration and teacher for others 💕

[@aimeebernadettedesmond7096]

This is so sweet. Really love the encouragement you gave him. Support is so important.

[@valyeo123]

I love how maturely you handled this. I cannot subscribe to such a person. You are insanely more kind than me. :). Keep up the incredible work. I love your channel.

[@rm709]

I didn’t think you could be more humble. I found you recently and you’ve really opened my outlook on lifestyle design and personal growth. Thanks Matt... :)

[@BigDomski]

This is just f****** amazing man, I am watching wayyy to many of your videos, and you are literally saving my life right now, so I hope to one day I can say “thank you”, but only once I start to live life completely like I truly want to. There’s a long way ahead and I am scared af, but I don’t think I can stop now.

[@WitterFitness]

Discovering this channel is one of the best thing that happened to me this past week. I gotta subscribe man. I like your humble vibe is fulfilling!!! Big up!!! Watching all the way in Jamaica 🇯🇲

[@iamlakesivad4675]

I love this video. I love when young guys like him are humble and willing to look up to their mentors. Even cooler you allowed his dreams to come to by meeting you in person. That's awesome!

[@Quiksilver5451]

Matt, you’re a real inspiration! You keep it real and I’m glad I found your channel. Keep doing what you do 💪🏼🤙🏼

[@procrastimania]

Love your message and love your videos. This is far from the usual content I consume, but this has filled my heart with so much joy to see a kid meet a personal hero. Keep up the amazing work Matt!

[@rubenmunoz2912]

i saw his video and i love it, it was so you xD you're doing a tremendous job right here. i'm getting inspired too in my own work, thank you both!

[@logemedia]

Absolutely incredible! This is why we do what we do. You're the man!

[@alejandraadame1241]

Never leave comments on KZbin videos but this is sick!!! I love the way you respond to it!! And how you actually are open to help other people grow and share knowledge!! Love your channel and work and love this video! You made me smile and encouraged me to have a better and positive reaction to unexpected situations when people approach you. Thanks!

[@KirkKreifels]

You guys inspire me! Building my channel to a full time job is my dream. Thanks for the encouragement and knowing that quality and consistency always are rewarded.

[@saithorat3483]

You are awesome Matt! I love your videos and I always feel centered after watching you talk about different things that strike a cord with me everytime. You are my new motivation! ❤️

[@StephanieStoven]

This is so awesome!! He was so excited and so cool that he didn’t give up!!

[@shannongreen3931]

Thank you for investing in him. Certain kinds of encouragement can fuel a person for fifty years.

[@oxerification]

Never thought I would really be inspired watching this on a mundane lockdown morning..believe me, your artwork really did inspire lots of people out there.. Peace and love from Nasi Lemak land..

[@LUMJTV]

Yo, Matt This is absolutely amazing! This is the exact reason why i told myself i wouldnt produce anything else low quality! and here you are proving my point. Hard work makes everything better! I have so much to do but i waiting until i get my money up to get more gear. Sterling is a great example and you are as well for allowing him to come on. Blessings to you. cant wait to see what's next for you.

[@motivationtheoryrunning]

I just found your channel and it is like discovering a word for something you didn't know existed. I have not been this excited to consume content in a long while

[@markkut]

Matt! I absolutely loved that you took Sterling on your podcast. It’s great to have big filmmakers and creatives share their stories, but I found myself so intrigued to hear someone that’s around my level of filmmaking talk and share his experiences. Great idea!

[@leslieramirez8516]

Matt..I really love your videos. I enjoy your sincerity and transparency. Positive and intentional. Inspiring.

[@jamiemichellepena9014]

Great video! Congrats Sterling for pursuing your dreams. Thanks Matt for being so damn humble.

[@marwaallali849]

You are such a wonderful person Matt . You inspire me a lot im thankful for your existence

[@edmund3435]

[@HeyLauryn]

Won't lie, so kinda hope when the Rock accepts your invite he does a video like Sterling's. That would be hilarious and awesome.

[@mx.sparkle841]

I'm so grateful I found you. Loving what you do.

[@KarinasaurusRexx]

That was the best existential crisis ever! I just watched that portion 5 times. "Am I nothing without smooth jazz and a crispy voiceover?" Awesome! Love to see a full video like that.

[@KevinDKLee]

[@angelinehatcher7705]

Love this! Was not expecting this from the title of the video. I'm a new subscriber so I've just been binge watching all your videos and I just deleted all my social media accounts so I'm one step away from becoming a minimalist. lol

[@superman4ever1986]

I don't know how I came across your channel, but I'm glad I did. During the last year, I was on a journey of self discovery. About what makes people happy, especially myself. And I started to really ask all the questiion you already did. Do I really need items, and if so, which one to be specific. How can I be happy without much. and time is continueous instead of restricted. I like your persepctive. I think I was on the road of becoming a minimalist. Your channel has comfirmed that. Thanks.

[@AkS143joyful]

Thanks Matt! Done and Done

[@Snortai]

214k subs... Matt I've watched the channel grow and man I'm so happy to see it get to this amount of subscribers in such a short amount of time. Keep it going. Love the videos.
