Hurry Up and Wait

Life gets in the way soo much.. Or more like, Life makes me tired and lethargic with means I have no energy to make any content..

I've had a video planned for so long (not a greattt plan, but a plan none the less!) and I just have not gotten the time or motivation to just make it. It kind of gets me down.. But everything will happen eventually..! hopefully!!
 
Anyone have times where they are super eager to get content out there but real life is holding you back?

There's been loads of videos I haven't made yet because I am in a situation where I can't. I've been writing and planning things about gaming history, narrative structure, gaming mechanics and all sorts of things pertaining to the art of video games... but I can't really make them because almost all of my games are sitting in storage while I'm stuck essentially couch surfing until my apartment is ready (which is entirely out of my hands), ouch!

It's pretty wildly frustrating to be hamstrung in this way. Well, here's hoping that I can grow my channel more once all of this stuff is out of the way.

Oh most definitely! But the only way for me to get out what I would want to is for YouTube to overtake my day job in revenue. And that just isn't in the cards. So I do what I can when I can. ~1 video a week.
 
Oh, heck yes! However, as extraordinarily impatient as I am, I see it as a blessing in disguise. The amount of times you might get an idea and then change your mind and then develop it over time is why life getting in the way is sometimes a good thing.
 
Yea... I have a mountain of requests and ideas that I've slowly been going through. I wish I had more time to focus on them, but "real work" that pays the bills is way more important! ^^
 
Thanks for all your answers, glad to know I'm not the only one haha.

It's too bad that signing on to make YT content didn't automatically pay a living wage like a job does, huh? So much energy expended elsewhere..
 
Its cool dude :P remember that YouTube (hopefully) isn't going anywhere :) and all these ideas can be put on screen, like pen to paper when you do get moved in :)
