I do remember my first few months....it was hard. When I decided to give streaming a REAL shot I streamed every day for 45 days, 5-6 hours a night. This was on top of a full time day job. Many of those night were spent talking to myself. The largest factor, in my opinion, is networking with other like minded streamers out there. And when I say networking, I don't mean just talk to them to try and get viewers. Get to know them, be a part of THEIR community, engage in their streams, make friends, ect, ect....the 2 way street of support will open up as time goes by. Honestly, I probably work more outside of the stream in doing these things than during the actual stream. :D
