      We see many videos out showing aesthetic working /studying/ doing jobs sitting on table for long hours without using gadgets
      But when we start doing it we get distracted too easily and we almost lose focus doing things and tbh that seems too unaesthetic
      Give a guide to work for long hours which will give you professional feeling with productive results...

      "5 books that actually helped you" please make a video on this I love reading self help books.I came here after watching your life tracker video and I need to know what books have you read and what are the books that actually helped you in self improvement.

      I am a high school student moving to college soon, a lot of things are going to change.. I see you as a successful person already, you've control over you and you do what makes you achieve the next level.. like an inspiration but it becomes hard for me to maintain a healthy growth period for long... I seriously need to hear your guide to young people like me... what are the things i always have to take care of in my next chapter of life..? you'd have experienced and dealt with everything since you truly shine now.. please give us a mantra to a better life like yours :) i respect you a lot and your way of delivering things is so realistic.. i hope you'll think over my request.

    Fantastic video! 😊❤️ I also love Kuru Toga pencils, they’re my favourites. Pentel Energel used to be too, but I recently realized they’re not permanent or archival (especially coloured versions). Switching to Uniball Signo 207 in January 2025, so my notes & art don’t fade over time. They sell them in 🖤💙❤️ inks & they write well!

    As a massive James bond fan I already have the iconic Seamaster so I knew I needed the pen once I saw you mention it. The click is satisfying yes but the true value is the build quality and the fact that it was in a bond film.

      I had a fountain pen phase! I haven’t tried that one specifically but I think fountain pens are cool and great to write with but it often bleeds on paper, changing ink is kinda tedious and I’ve had a few instances of it leaking if I take it to go :(

    Rotring 600 is actually better, the turn mechanism on the 800 is way too fragile for how expensive it is. Also, the term is knurling. The grip section is knurled.

    World wide pen demand, manufacturing and marketing has created excellent product at very reasonable pricing. Pentel,Pilot,Zebra, Uni, even Bic and Papermate and many more brands make it easy to buy an excellent writing device for the price of say, a pack of chewing gum! Not everyone can afford a Ferrari, but you could carry a world class pen for a few dollars.
