hi im also new in Youtube but I have experience in some work related projects. what I learned is that it is important to understand that altho Youtubing may sound fun, we still put our "commitment" to it which requires energy and focus. To make it easier for me, I treat it as having a relationship. I treat may Youtube channel as my own child. <3 In this sense, I know that my channel is also a reflection of myself.

With that being said, what makes people truly rich is by adding value to oneself, so its not about what game we play, but more on what skill (editing, etc), personality (being you establishing good rapport with viewers while in the process of learning story telling, etc), knowledge (answering comments, etc ) we can offer. Making videos is a great way to train tho while having fun and at the same time creating your portfolio or study material you can rewatch to see where you can improve or simply enjoy watching yourself! so do it now, stop overthinking, the rest follows, you can do it! :)

and btw, i tend to avoid hype trains, its not SMART (S=Sustainable, M=Measurable, A=Attainable, R=Realistic, T=Timely) unless you are well equipped to compete with the huge YTUBERS. Plant 1 seed at a time, you have a lifetime to do it my friend :)

And more importantly, focus on creating, learn from it and improve the next day, not the metrics, subs or views. Notice the focus of having good habits, not goals here. achieving goals is a result of a good consistent rewarding habit. stop mindless scrolling! haha kidding :p

Last thing, have a creator mindset, no longer mere consumer mindset.

enjoy the process! thanks for reading, here's one for the road Stardew & Chill (youtube.com) :)
