 Hey yo, what's happening guys? It's your boy Nick Trey coming back at you guys with another video. I know it's been a little bit since I've sat down. I switched up the scenery a little bit. You know, this is my desk. I'm usually on my couch. Just want to switch things up a little bit today. School has been good, classes have been stressful and hard as always, which is why I haven't had as much time to make these videos, but I promise they are coming back. But today we're going to be talking about how to stand out in college. I know that this is a very common question that a lot of you guys might be feeling, and especially if you're at a big school with thousands of students, it's easy to feel overwhelmed and feel like you can't fit in, or that you're not doing something to stand out. So I've had my fair share of experiences with stuff like this, so let me just jump into my tips for today. All right, now by far, hands down, one of the easiest ways to stand out in college is to be kind and be a nice person. Now, I know this sounds super obvious and super simple, but in reality, at college you can be often overlooked. Everyone's stressed out, everyone has a busy schedule that being a nice person just doesn't seem like it's a common trait, which is why if you're a nice person, someone who's generous and kind with their time and cares about other people, then that's going to instantly make you stand out. People appreciate that, people notice that, and people respect that most importantly. I think it's one of the most important things to go out of your way and greet people with a smile and say, hello, how are you doing? How was your day? How was your weekend? How are your classes? You know, whenever you meet an old friend or an acquaintance, it's always important to just ask them how they've been doing. You know, like I said, college is hard and it's important to keep track of one another and make sure that everyone's doing all right. And I think that just makes you stand out and people will realize, oh wow, Nick is a great person, he just asked me how my day was. And you know, the little things, whether it's a compliment or a saying thank you, it can really go a long way, especially if you're talking to the people who cook your dinner, the people who clean your bathrooms, like just go out of your way and say thank you, say you're welcome, ask how you're doing. Like it's the little things in life that matter the most and it will take you the longest way. Now the second most important thing is to have good style. Now if you've been watching the channel for a while, now you know that fashion and style are very important to me and especially on a college campus, for me that's something that helps me stand out. It helps me differentiate myself from other people and let people know that I'm unique and that I put effort into my outfits and that style is just important. Like I said, I just woke up so I haven't had time to accessorize or anything, but one super important part about having good style is obviously accessorizing. I said this countless times, but having a watch priceless as a college student, it's super important when you need to keep track of your schedule, keep track of your time, but also things like jewelry. I've mentioned this before, but bracelets and necklaces can go a long way to instantly up your style game, which is why I have loved the products from our sponsor of this video, Rose Gold and Black. They're a men's jewelry and accessory company and they have seriously been changing the game. Like their name states, all of their products have Rose Gold or Black in their name and let me tell you guys that these are some of the sickest pieces I've seen on the market right now. The really cool thing about them is that they're all very adjustable and so they fit a lot of sizes. So right now this is one of their single band bracelets, but this bracelet along with this necklace, it instantly just shook my style game to another level. The coolest part about Rose Gold and Black is that they're a super affordable company, unlike a lot of the other jewelry companies out there that are charging premium prices for low quality products. But I can tell you that every product from Rose Gold and Black is such high quality and they're so unique. They make you stand out instantly in any crowd and I highly recommend picking one up for any college kid. They have dozens of different products, ranging from moderate to minimalist, that will suit any guy's style. So if you check out that link in my description, there's gonna be a promo code already applied so that you guys can save yourselves a little bit of money while you're purchasing this, but I highly recommend picking up any pieces and you guys won't regret it. Now the third thing to help you stand out is to be passionate about something. I said this time and time again, but having a passion is one of the most important things because it keeps you driven, it keeps you focused. It gives you a goal at the end of the finish line that you're working towards. For me, as you guys know, my passions are obviously photography and film. These are also great conversation starters. People are asking, oh, how was your summer? It looks so crazy. You were traveling so much. What was it for? That gives you an opportunity to talk about what your summer was about or expand on your passions because other people care what other people are passionate about. That's the scene from La La Land. People love what other people are passionate about. It also makes you an expert in your field, whether it's on biochemistry or physics or neuroscience or any type of thing that you're passionate about. Being well-knowledgeed and having a lot of information about that makes you some kind of expert on it. And people are interested. It's a cool conversation starter and it gives you stuff to talk about rather than just, oh, the weather's nice. Oh, how are your classes? Oh, mine are hard, me too. I guarantee you that having passion is an instant standout. Now, number four, being on top of all your shit. This is super critical and something that I've constantly been working towards, especially this past year, to get better at. And that's because it's literally so critical to your college success. Being on top of everything you need to be doing, whether it's academic, extracurricular, social seeds, will not only make you more productive because you're using your time efficiently, but also make you stand out because people are gonna be like, how is this kid doing everything? In college, I actually think it's important to be busy, but what I mean by that is healthily busy. Not so much to the point where you're so stressed out that you can't do anything, but to the point where you have enough work that it keeps you driven and keeps you motivated all throughout the semester. Now, number five, not just in college, but in life in general, going the extra mile will instantly make you stand out. I guarantee it, whether it's for a school project or the little things in life, like going out of your way to do the best you can and giving it 100% will have exponential returns on your investment, I guarantee you that. Things that you think are so minute, whether it's holding the door open for someone or just saying, thank you, have a nice day, like that's what makes you stand out compared to your average Joe. All right, I hope you guys have enjoyed this quick video and that I was able to share some light on how to stand out in college because like I said, there are thousands of students on campus that it's easier to feel like you can't stand out or that you're just blending in with the crowd.
