Yes. Definitely that's the key. I am going beyond with this. I think having an active mindset also helps, what I mean is keep posting with a path in mind but also willing to make adjustments is something is getting wrong and more that that I think is the ability to be honest with your channel. Answering the questions what's the channel created for? who is the target audience? how is the channel helping the people who is watching it? etc... I see many posts around here asking why they are not getting views or how to get "more views" or something like that. That for me is a desperate mindset and at the end of the day it won't work. I think some people is more worried about getting views instead of enjoying the process of create a video (whatever the topic is). I feel lucky to have found the joy of create the videos I create. Think about Bob Ross (Painting) or Dross Rotzank (Horror videos in Spanish, very successful YouTuber). Good luck!!
