Why I Was Not Making Videos and Will I Make More... 

Everything has its time, Nik. Social media is not the centre of the world. Take care!

Nick, you're a 200% right about your choices. You have already produced a lot of cool content. Don't become the kind of youtuber that uploads empty videos every week and take your time to do the things you really like!

You where missed my friend. Your children are lucky to have a father like you. Thanks

Seeing everyone comment about how they 100% understand Nik's approach and reasoning about only making/editing videos when it feels right to him... that makes my heart swell. Nik's fans are the best.

Thanks Nik for the update. Family First. The chickens were hilarious. Well done!

Good to know you and the family are well Nik. Peace 🙏🏻

The chicken was stubborn and the situation was funny. I'm happy if you and the whole family are doing well. It's nice how you do it and I'm happy to wait for new videos.

Yes, it's nice to hear from you again, & that you & your family are ok. Thanks.

I enjoy anything you have put out I've been with you from the begining I said a few times before I am Mike from Minnesota USA please don't stop all together, take a brake when you feel needed we are here for you ready to enjoy the magic you provide. with love and respect from America Mike.

I couldn't stop laughing of the chickens. Thanks for the update. Any waiting time is worth it. It's good to take time in life and don't feel pressure from things that are not essential. Not everyone manage to do that, it's an achievement in itself.

Nice porch Nik,I am looking for to watch how did you make it.?

Thank you and family. As I seen it there was this guy who had a vision and built a log cabin. A magnificent cabin and shared his knowledge with who wanted to watch. Finished the cabin moved his family in. End of build. He entered a new part of life. Lived happily ever after. Spend your time with family. Before you know it your old. Thank you Scott

Glad to see you back. I admire your creativity, and your attitude towards life and living. Too many free spirits are crushed, because of other's demands and expectations. Live life on your own terms.

Great to see you back Nic. Love the chickens in the background. I really enjoy your videos. They allow me to share your stories vicariously. You are absolutely right about the importance of family. Live in the moment. Joe

Leave it to chickens to comment on what you do ! LOL Nice to see you and your family are all fine. You also worked for years building your home along with a lot of forest management. Every one needs a break to just live life and be happy.

That was funny with the chicken, it made me smile big time. Your time is your time, we are just happy to see you and Family are well. Thanks for the updates!!!

Was checking weekly - but knew you'd be back - when you were ready with quality content. Thank you for your time and attention to details - Will be here for the next one :)

Just subscribed to this channel, been watching you build for years. It’s good to see the beautiful people we respect your work and family values, it’s your life, be well and safe to live it as you choose. ❤️👏🙏👍🥰

It has been a joy to have watched some much of the work from the very beginning of felling the trees to this current state. You have a lot going on in your life, the family comes first and that, in itself, is enough. We will always welcome You~~Namaste~~

Your channel. Your posts. Your life. Your time. You live at your pace.

Chicken dinner? Thank you Nic! You live/love life, you deserve it! You are a great human in my book!

Thank you for the update Nik. We totally understand what you are saying. There are a lot of people posting repetitious and random videos just to make money, and it is really apparent. We look forward to any future videos. ♥️

Hi Nik, We are just glad you and your family are ok. We enjoy your artistic and craftsmanship abilities a lot!! Enjoy your family also and rest. As always, God bless you and your family from your very long-time California subscriber 🙏

Glad to see you back Nik, you are inspirational. I love to hear you speak in Slovene, not that I can understand much, just the odd word. My father was born in Slovenia and I visit when I can. I was shouting Tiho at the chicken for you, but it did make me laugh. Looking forward to more videos. Hvala x

Nick,you do what you want,I like most others know exactly where you are coming from,I like most others are only to happy to wait for your next video,All the best from Perth Australia 🇦🇺👍👍👍👍

Ciao, capisco è giusto che non diventi schiavo dei video, prima la tua famiglia, ho visto che i ragazzi sono cresciuti, e che state tutti bene questo è l'importante. Saluti dalle Dolomiti 👍👍👍

Looking forward for your next video!!!!!

Welcome back Nik, will be eagerly waiting for your next videos. So glad that you and the Family are doing well and it is nice to see a man who spends time with his family. God Bless

Hello from Minnesota USA! Do 1 video a year or 50! It's up to you and I will watch them as soon as there unloaded! Keep up the great work!

Don't worry about it Nick, a man had too do what he got too do. Ha ha ha, that chicken it's hilarious. Wish you and you're family all the best and thanks for this update.

Art takes time and not to worry we will still be here it’s always a pleasure to see a new Video pop up it’s like a sweet treat thank you for all your work and ingenuity 💞

I like your Alaska shirt. That's my home. 😊 As to Slovenia, it is a beautiful country. My father's grandparents moved from there to Montana, USA in the late 1800's. I understand there still are some Rezeks living in Slovenia and Italy, but we have no contact with them. My mother's family came from Sweden in the early 1900's to Minnesota, USA. We still have contact with some of the families there. Anyway, I look forward to whatever videos you do post. I know they are a lot of work and appreciate them.

Hi Nic. Nancy here from Pennsylvania,USA. So glad you and your family are happy and well. I agree with what you are doing. Know that I too was one who eagerly awaited your videos. Glad to see you and agree 100% with your priorities

Nik, DO YOU, that is what counts. God bless you and your family. Enjoy them!! 🥰🥰🥰🥰

Nik, thanks for putting out this video. I think you underestimate the influence that you have on your audience. I have watched you since your 1st video. People watch for many different reasons. You take an idea or vision that is clear in your mind, but a bit beyond most people comprehension to understand, let alone execute. That ability fascinates your subscribers. Why? All of us have lots of ideas, but the ability to actually execute them to the end is very difficult. Most people just give up on their idea before taking any action to do it. Your last video on the loft climbing tree was an example. You stated from start to finish was about 2 years. You had a clear idea of how you wanted to do it, but it took 2 years to find the right trees and prep them to finish the project. YT viewers watch you videos because you exhibit traits skills they would like to have. Thus the attraction is not just viewing entertainment, but you teach us all that we have different life skills, but fall short of the skills we would like to have. In addition, you recognize the TB creator trap and refuse to fall into it. Being driven by YT revenue is their demise. You recognize that and have chosen a position of life and family balance....rare indeed. So continue to follow the little man inside you. It's will continue to guide you. Follow you heart and not what the YT world wants you to do!

Since I first saw you lifting this house into place by yourself, I've been inspired by your craftsmanship and ingenuity. I do not have any expectations just gratitude for you taking the time to share your adventure. Thank you and be well. From Oregon :)

Nik your creativity and your Ideas of building your home gave lots of joy to watch! we will always be grateful if youfeel to share some of your work with us….good choice to live your life the way you want , without being addicted to filming…….i wish you and your family all the best, happiness and good health!😍

Nik you have a life that you are blessed to give your time to and we are humbled by grace to see a glimpse of.

That's cool I understand . You do you .

Your videos are art, and for that we must wait. Thanks Nik!x

Good for you. Living your life, and you families is way more important. John Vermont, USA

So good to see you my friend. I'd rather you enjoy your time, your family and your life than you post videos. I love the chicken, mine do exactly the same every day xx Much live to all the family

Your live, your decision, your time. 👍

It's your life - live it as you chose.

It is easy to get burned out. Happy to hear you are working sensibly. Keep the creativity going and enjoy life!

Спасибо, Ник......я рад что у тебя всё хорошо.....👋

Well done for having your priorities and having the courage to defend them. Thank you for sharing, chickens and all. We are just concerned with your absence. I am looking forward to the up coming uploads.

You are absolutely right, you have to think about your family and disconnect, live free because time flies, greetings

Thanks Nik, I had missed you; but I watch other families too. Good to hear everything is good. You're fine, just keep doing what you're doing. Especially throwing the axe! Your subscribers are just concerned that you're all Ok. Yes, the rope net and tree ladder were great, very interesting watching you build that! I still wonder how you got that HUGE stump through the front door early on in the construction of the cabin! Lol take care...

Great to see you back Nic, that chicken's for the pot! Lol live life my friend, see you soon, whenever? Take care as you're part of our viewing lives now😊

I like that your process is genuine. Your work is creative and well thought out. Beautiful work as always.

Hello, I too was worried, now I am satisfied and reassured. It's hard to get out of this spiral of pressure you put on yourself. But it becomes easier if you recognize it yourself and take care of remedy.Your decision less to make is right. The inner peace will return, you will become calmer and begin to readjust the screw of life again.The price you get is inner peace and serenity.Go on like this and don't be discouraged, your wife and children will thank you, Greetings from Bavaria

Nik, thanks for the update.I always love watching your cabin coming together

Here since then beginning. I am glad to see you and yours when convenient.

Hi Nik, glad to see you are ok. that is the important thing

Nik, please don’t feel guilty for not allowing your video activity to dominate your life. From what I have been seeing for a long time you have a perfect family life that people are envious about. Especially me. In my eyes, you have been living the life that was designed by God. Please enjoy it. Don’t worry about us. We will be OK.

love your work. always looking forward to your videos to see what you have been up to. but you do you mate, thats the most important!

Great to see you back, love all your videos!

Nik I wached the build from day one, and we all understand every one's lives change and things happen. it is such a pleasure to see what you have done. but also knowning there is things that do not need to be shown too.

It’s a genuine pleasure to see your work. Thank again for sharing them with us!!

Love all of your videos ! Definitely enjoy your family and your time ! The chickens are hilarious!

Good to see you back but take your time as mentioned.

I'm glad to hear all is well and you have your priorities in order.

Understandable. I’ve watched your series twice already, and will most likely watch it again!

Completely agree with your point of view, Nick.

Love your videos, and your reasons for doing them. I appreciate your values and honesty. I'm looking forward to watching you again. Chuck..USA...Indiana.

Thanks, for the update. Great to see your happy.

I’m glad you are ok, enjoy what you do & hope to see more videos whenever you can

So glad you are back.Really appreciated.

Always do you Nik. I just love to watch your amazing creativity, and that can't be rushed.

Thank you for sharing so much of your talent, vision, and philosophy with us--your audience; your chicken had me smiling and even laughing--yes, just a jealous bird, speaking her mind. I am subscribed so when You post I will enjoy an update on my "kids" far away--you as a family are adopted into my family.

Good to see you and the family are doing well. Be safe and see you when you post again.

Im so glad u make videos your way. I just love your videos. Im more than willing to wait for however long it takes. Your videos reek of quality. Thank you 😊

Peace Nik, You are missed sorely with your exquisite contents. Stay safe, Stay strong, dear friend.Health and family are Everything.

Love you man. I get it - family and life before YT editing. Love the little bit of the deck I can see. I trust there is a video coming soon of the Deck going up?😉

Glad you are back.

Thanks for letting us know that there will be more videos. Looking forward to seeing them whenever you post 😊

thank you for your video. I have been following your videos for sometime now and have enjoyed you sharing with the public.

Thanks for the amazing videos. Your duty is to yourself and to your family.

I enjoyed every one of your videos and was glad to contribute to your page.

I'm just glad that you and your family are healthy and happy!

Good for you for taking time off.

Thanks for sharing 😊

So good to hear there are more videos coming soon!😍🇨🇦

Grazie Nik!!! Non vedo l'ora di vedere i tuoi video, hai fatto bene a prenderti una pausa, anche se ci hai fatto stare sulle spine 😅

I'm glad you are going to continue making videos because you have such a great talent in not only building things, but in filming and editing as well. You could easily have had a career in film making. If they gave out awards like Oscars to video you tube creators, you would have my vote absolutely on winning such an award. So happy you're back!

I love your style. You express so much piece of mind! Thank you for everything! I have watched all your videos so far, since you started the log cabin. I always learn something from your videos!

Thanks NIk for your adventure that You took us along it is something that you can`t just forget

Ja, das kann ich gut verstehen,das man mal keine Lust hat. Ich freue mich trotzdem, wenn du uns neue Videos zeigst. Deine Arbeiten waren immer interessant und 👍 Erhole dich und irgendwann geht’s weiter🤗💪👍

Good for you. It’s always better to live and spend time with family. Well done. You chose well and focus on those you love.

Thank you Nik for being honest and yes we were worried about you ! 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽🤩🤩🤩💯💯💯

Nice one - cheers for the update

Would love to see more from you.

Thanks Nik, I'm glad you are living your life just like you want. Your videos are always welcome, when you feel like sharing with us.

So happy to see you back and I'm so glad that you've spent time with your family and that all is well with you and there at the cabin! Looking forward to any of the videos that you feel like uploading. I love seeing your cabin progress, but not if it's going to make you crazy; you need to do what is right for you. Thank you for the update; I hope you have a beautiful summer and stay well and happy. (from Sandi)

Don’t blame you, gotta be happy.
