Depression... Lack of mental energy causes me to watch random crap and not get things done. Lack of Money causes me to stress and just earn what I can to eat. And a whole lot of other things... But I've been trying YT since 2013 so I'm not stopping now. I'm working on a channel that's going to be awesome. Soon.... no.... TODAY!
I know the vortex of depression. I do not live it, but I live with it in loved ones who suffer. I could tell you that it's small changes, one step at a time, little victories, but I'm sure you have already heard all that. Good luck to you, keep trying.
You're kinda like my future self saying things I don't know I'm going to say, yet, haha. I'm a wedding photographer, new-ish dad, and starting to explore my mental health. I've just recently decided start my UA-cam journey. Thanks for sharing, Chris!
Ha! You should do it! Your first videos will stink, no matter how well you have it planned out in your head. Just jump right in and start figuring it out. Somehow, you do start to grow
Love it man. Also a designer and photographer. Ready to take UA-cam seriously right now. After allllllll these years of talking about it and acquiring all the gear that I really didn’t even need. No more excuses. I love how you said people love to hate the algorithm, but the algorithm helped you get the subs you have! And I also relate to the blogging world too. Thanks for the motivation man! 🙏🏼
I know! I saw yours when I was still in the process of putting my video together. We may have missed the wave, I started working on this a month ago, and then did an entirely different video 2 weeks ago. If I had done it a month ago, it might have landed better. I also want to do a video about slowing down and being more intentional and now I'm seeing a bunch of thumbnails on THAT subject. Never ending!
If you've been thinking about creating a UA-cam channel but haven't yet, what's holding you back?

Jump right in! That first video upload is the moment. Just like with design, the first videos stink, you’ll learn. Just start though.
All great points mate. Great video. Love the idea of doing it before you make your first money from UA-cam. A fresh perspective.
Thank you and I agree 🙂
UA-cam = watercolor painting. Really great observations 👍 I agree and relate. Well said
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it.
All 5 points are exactly how I feel about UA-cam. Let’s keep grinding 🎉
Awesome, thank you for that!

I literally made the same video and it’s also not doing well at all😂
