"In 2020 I want to be less driven by fear and more driven by faith." -Rowena.
Amen to that. Side note: whenever there are exterior shots of New York I keep waiting for Spidey to make a cameo by swinging through the frame. xD
Lol I read your comment right before she said this
This is also what I want for 2020, at the end of last year/early this year I came to the realisation that all of my actions in the past were driven purely by fear, and I am tired of being fearful of everything in my life. Let's work hard in 2020 to not let fear consume our lives and let us be guided by faith instead :)
I feel like there should be some âsweetest potatoâ merch. Maybe some comfy hoodies and oversized t-shirts to potato in đ„đ
When i feel less productive i just watch your videos. It makes me remember to stay focus and keep going.
Yeah and this is soo positively addictive!
Ive been feeling down these past few days, thinking about how my plans didnt work out as what i want, me being a failure to do anything, and realizing that whatever things i did, no matter how hard i work, i never gonna achieve this one of my youth goals in life. Ive tried my best to ignore those feelings and live in present, but somehow it's hard. I tried to seek some helps from other people, but it doesnt work like what i expected, and it bcm more worse than before. and the main problem isnt from other people, but myself. however, this morning, i think i can breathe a little bit after watching your video. it somehow shows me the light of life, and the things that i never realized it before. I want to thank you a lot for that, wishing you and whoever watching your videos, to have a good day and abundance of happiness in life.
Stay positive! Feeling overwhelmed is common in today's society. Sometimes we just need to take a breather to find our footing again!
I just got my blood drawn to test for horrible allergies Iâve been having to my apartment. I decided to listen to my body and go have my favourite meatball panino before I have to head to work. This video was very timely, Iâm relaxing at the Italian deli enjoying my food and absorbing your wisdom. I got a lot done at school today, I did something I was dreading for the sake of my health, I deserve it!
FINALLY SOMEONE WHO EATS TOAST WITH HONEY AND BUTTER AND DOES NOT THINK ITâS GROSS,3:08 đđđđ
That's so good!!! They have whipped butter with honey mixed in at Souplantation and it's heaven đ
I think toast with butter on it is normal XD i thought i was the weird one eating plain bread witg honey. Sometimes i crave for honey on bread jdjdjd
That's... pretty normal. Restaurants even serve honey-butter bread by the basket full.
Its considered gross??? Honey butter is my fave thing ever
Working driven by faith and not fear... LOVE that. Will try to implement that in my life from now on. Thank you
Focus on what you can change versus what you can't. So true. I can't change the fact that I still need to work to support myself, at least for the next few years. Instead of feeling down, I should explore different things during my personal time and live more enthusiastically.
I feel like I need to write down every single thing you said in this video . Thank you đđŒ
Also, congrats on getting sponsored by coach. What a dream!!
Weâre saved by grace, through faith... thank you for you!
Love this! Sometimes I think we just forget about how to rewind, stop and focus on the little things. But like you said, it's simple things that we can do to just look after ourselves (especially mental self care). We don't realise how consumed we become by all the distractions that sometimes we become afraid to be alone with our thoughts. And when that time happens, we don't know what to do with our thoughts, maybe because they're raw and ask us to question things we've been avoiding (by distracting ourselves with daily life).
I just love it when she calls us âsweetest potatoesâ â€ïžâ€ïžâ€ïž
I have also been practicing not stressing over small things and I have to agree with you its changed me for the better lol not to be dramatic but because right now im in art classes my over perfectionist self usually comes over but ive been noticing myself letting go more and more on my art and letting it heal me instead of crippling me has been so powerfulđ love this love your videos, and keep doing you Rowenađ€
p.s. also random but one of my faves this year has been using an app called "Tide" its a free download and it works as an alarm clock, study timer, and also offers meditation on there and i gotta say its also aesthetic and has a lot of calming sounds and music so reccomend if your finding yourself needing to destress i love that day by day they show a pretty image and quote as well, if your someone that likes reading quotes for some uplifting!!
I understand the art school struggle. I started college for animation a few months ago and it's been really difficult to let go of perfection. I've had too many late assignments already simply because I procrastinate starting in fear of failing, oh the irony. In the wise words of my 3D animation instructor, "don't let perfection be the enemy of good enough".
I love every single word in this video. It really means A LOT. Thank you, Rowena!
I look forward to your videos! Driven by faith, not fear...I second that. đđđđŸ
Your videos always help me keep calm and get back to work with a fresh mind and happy heart. Thank you, Rowena!
The past month definitely feels like it has disappeared from beneath me and has left me stressing a lot about things that should be future worries (and generally not being fully present with people because of this).
Iâm feeling the exact same way! It definitely leaves you in a panic when you feel like a whole month just rushed passed you, especially for me as a law student because it means that finals are one month closer đ€ŠđŒââïž I definitely have to work on being more present and try to slow things down this next month and I hope you can too đ
@@madisonhawk2465 Definitely the same! As an English student, I've got essays with deadlines that feel like they're around the corner that are longer than we've ever had to write before now. Trying to relax and take them in chunks at a time! Hopefully you've got plenty of time to relax and spend time with loved ones between studying as well!
perfect thing to watch today. i woke up early but feel late (was trying to get into the office as early as possible) and was frozen with anxiousness and overwhelm... remembered i had meant to watch this video and needed a way to get unfrozen. i'm still going to get there almost an hour early, but because of your video i realize its not that necessary. I can get to work just on time like the rest of the office. the world wont crumble if i do. THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO.
@Noe, I also have a channel and I live in Poland. I try to live a mindful life.
Welcome over to my channel for some peace and simplicity!!
I dont know the time zone you guys are in but being in Australia and getting to listen to this in the morning before starting the day is really calming and helps me be that little bit thoughtful towards how I handle today. Thank you Rowena!đđ
Staying positive, making changes, being productive are all EASY with two things: 1) friends, and 2) a job you're passionate about. That's it, that's all the secrets there are.
And here im procrastinating what to study so i can do the job im passionate abt. Idk everything is interesting but what is what really suits međsigh
@@yominix Been there! I find everything interesting, too, and I like learning about it all. I was most interested in computers, so I went to school for Computer Science. It was interesting, but I absolutely hate doing the work. So my advice to you is not to think about what interests you the most, but what you actually enjoy doing or what kind of change you'd like to make in the world.
this being the first video i watch all day MAKES MY DAY i love you cutest potat
You must know that ur smile always make me full of energy
You are my meditation in the morning đđ thank you for all your help Rowena! I love your videos so much hun!
Work by faith not by fearđ Thank youđ„șđ
Im so grateful I found your channel. Your videos are so inspiring to me. I have been in a funk and im dealing with a lot of pressures right now, but you have helped me feel like even though its hard, I CAN handle it, and I dont feel so hopeless and defeated. I feel like I can make things happen for myself if I put the work in :) I cant wait to see how I grow from here. Also I ordered a whole bunch of books as per your recommendations lol I cant wait to go through them all
I wish you'd make this form of self-improvement genre into podcasts, It would be nice on a daily commute and I started taking notes while watching your videos
Your videos have inspired me so much and helped me so much in my battle with depression and my not so great relationship with food. I recently purchased Atomic Habits because of your videos and have started reading it! Thank you for your unique view on life and all the good vibes :)
Iâve been going through a lot lately because of tough situations and how I choose to react to them. This is definitely the video that I needed to watch right now. Channeling positive energy this year!! Thank you, Rowenađ
I love her humor. It always pops out unexpectedly.
i relate so much to the frequent fringe-in-the-wind readjustment clips
Congrats on the Coach sponsorship. That's awesome!
first vid from this channel i watched but i already know it won't be the last lol, it was so motivating and i need more of this content in my life tbh
Great video as always Rowena, youâre so wise đâ€ïž Iâm trying to be less driven by fear too, as I find that my fears cause me so much anxiety that I donât want to do anything. Iâm almost paralysed by it. But then I tell myself that the bigger fear is not going for what I want (although I am still trying to figure that part out) and that Iâd regret not doing something than I would doing it. This is what I am striving to do for 2020 and although I have bit a few snags the last couple of months, Iâm still fighting forward. Rowena, you and your videos are a big inspiration to me and I always turn to them when I need the help. Thank you so much â€ïžâ€ïž
Yessssssss was looking on CZcams before I go to sleep and you popped upđ you always give me positive vibes
Your voice is so soothing â€ïž plus your videos are very aesthetically pleasing.
ah I needed this. thank you rowena for the wholesome content
I've been feeling highly stressed and upset lately. Your videos finally
gave me a chance to reflect on my unhealty routines and to change my life for
the better. So, from my heart, thank you. I just really wanna hug you now! Lots of love from Italy!
your voice is so calming! i love your videos
I cried at the end... I really needed this video today!! Thank you. đ
Aww big hug x
I loved the video, it made my soul calm and safe and helped me learn some new things, thank you Rowena đ€đđ
It was exactly what I needed, I've been struggling so much lately . You are amazing â„ïž
I love how you talk to my mind touching my heart.
Thanks dear!
Thank you so much for this video! Self care is extremely important. I also take walks with a coworker after lunch. It's been amazing for our health, being present, bonding and reducing stress.
Thank you for this calm and peaceful time. I consider your video now as a chilling session where I just listen to you casually and chill both my mental and physical self. You're still sparkling a very positive and restful vibe Rowena. I wish you well too, our kind and lovely girl.
as always, i absolutely loved this video â„ your whole channel just brings me so much joy and inspiration and really helps me to grow. thank u â„
Love this so much â€ïž
Your videos are always so inspiring. What a unique and genuine positive energy, it is incredibly refreshing and rare to see on CZcams. It is touching and inspiring as well, to see how you treat your work colleagues/employees. They are truly extremely lucky to have you as a role model and mentor. Well done Rowena, keep spreading this amazing energy and inspiring us, we are grateful to have you:) Have an amazing weekend!
just by watching your videos when I feel worthless, makes me feel less stress and feel that I'm good enough. you're my inspiration
Rowena, you motivate me so much! Thank you â€ïž
I was feeling unstable (anxious, too hyper on sugar) and you calmed me.
Thank you đ
starting the weekend by watching this, best choice ever. Thank you Rowena
Dear Rowena this was so beautiful and super inspiring†i was feeling a bit down & worried and this comforted me so thank you so much đ

@blue bird atalya. I also have a channel and I live in Poland. I try to live a mindful life.
Welcome over to my channel!!
Beautiful video my dear, it is so nice to hear your tips! It is so crucial to let go of your negative thoughts and be aware of them rather than IN them. Also staying in the moment helps so much and remaining grateful! :)
You're so precious, Rowena đ„ș Thank you for the video, hope you're having an excellent weekend!
I just found your channel while im trying to love myself more and to not pushing myself too hard đ your videos are calming and got me realize how the process is more important than the goals(being ambitious)
Thank you so much rowenaâ€
@Yeonmi Choi, I also try not to push myself to hard I have a channel and I live in Poland. I try to live a mindful life.

thank you so much rowena, it really helps
@Annabelle I also have a channel and I live in Poland. I try to live a mindful life.
Welcome over to my channel and peace and simplicity!!
I really look forward to your videos each week because they always calm me down and remind me to stay grounded and not go into whole panick-y mode because i didnât do as much as i wanted/âhaveâ to, but obviously itâs not the end of the world if i donât get those things done this week so thank you, thank you, for constantly being my source of calmness and peace. Hereâs to appreciating the small things that we get done in a day-to-day basis and being more present :) Just like what you said, less rushing from point A to point B, more slowing down and enjoying the ride. I love you a lot Ro
Inspiring as always. Thank you!
extremely inspirational thank you!
amazing stuff
This was very helpful. Thank you, Rowenađ
Could watch your videos all day
Thanks for putting subtitles in Spanish, I'm from Mexico. đ
i am early!! and this is something i need. đ„șđ„ș
Roweeeeeena and a new inspirational video đđ
Loved it âđ» thanks for the reminder
Beautiful, inspiring video!
I just wanted to say thank you:) you are wonderful
random but: I HAVE THE SAME KETTLE!!! IT'S SO COOL CUZ IT GLOWS WHILE BOILING UP THE WATER XD
shimmieshimmiekokobye what brand is the kettle? Itâs beautiful!
VOIIIICEEEEE HUGđđđ
Love u I enjoyed watching the video
her apartment is perfectly gorgeous
Thankyou for this video â„ïž much love from PH
Thank you so so much best wishes from Poland đđ
Much needed đ€
I hope weâll see a house tour soon, because your flat is stunning đ€
"Work less live more" this coat I need to remember all the time...
You go girl. Yes! No fear porn! More joy!
rowena!! we need a podcast from you :)
She already is working on one
I envy people like her who don't live with depression. Must be nice
hope you are getting the help you need and are recovering!
i think she went through a very dark time a while ago, when she was always just partying and dealing with family issues (the loss of someone really close to her). This period is her healing and building herself to be much better than her previous self. You can see the gradual changes in her past videos where she goes over her personal diaries and her insecurities, so I believe they're partly dedicated to viewers like you who are also struggling. Just like her, I hope that you'll be able to pick yourself up after this long, dark period because I think her channel is dedicated to help people do that :)
That attitude gets you nowhere, Doug (Severe depression with suicidal ideation here). Open up.
At the end of the video the only shoes I want are your teammateâs Doc tbh! Theyâre so original! Super sweet video though âșïž
Wishin that my work environment would be like this đ
Wisdom lives here
