I LOVE CREATING CONTENT! + Motivation to keep going?

[xingcat]

One of my videos this year that broke away from the long hair stuff was something I did entirely because I was depressed and needed to cheer myself up, and it became a whole series that delights me to make every time we put one together. I think making videos and interacting in a way that shows you, lets your voice be heard, and share who you are with the world can be really beneficial.

You started a channel and you're making videos. The fact that you've started means something motivated you to start doing it in the first place. You love making videos? Then there'll be no problems if you keep expanding yourself and just keep creating content on and on!
You think Markiplier, PewDiePie got that fame over a night? Of course they didn't! You can see that they have over 2000 videos on their channel and that's one of the reasons why they did it. They just kept on making content and they made it, with hard work, investing time and doing what they love doing.

Why shouldn't you be on the same position like them? Work hard! Do it with passion and never go off the path to fullfill your dream! You are where you are because of who you are and if you wanna go somewhere else you're gonna have to change! Don't ever let anybody tell you you can't do something. Think big, dream big but start SMALL and you'll get there, I guarantee you that.

Hello everybody, I have been making youtube content for over a month now and it has been f*****g amazing!

Reply to this thread and let me and everyone know what keeps you going! And some tips to come up with ideas! Thanks for any replies.

Are you me? Are you actually me? Because I could have written this myself! It's been a struggle not to use capslock in my threads because I LOVE CREATING CONTENT TOO! I just didn't want to be that crazy chick who keeps screeching...

Anyhow, I know exactly where you're coming from. I started in the last two months of 2015 and I'm never looking back. I've never been able to work all day and night on something before without feeling burnt out, let alone energised by it. Remembering I have comments to check on makes me smile every single morning.

Honestly, it's not just one thing that keeps me going - I can't think of anything that would STOP me going!

Now, the important part - oh my god, I love your channel. I've been lucky enough to find a few awesome channels since joining here very recently, but yours is one of my favourites (if not #1). I love your sense of humour, you have amazing presence as others have said, great editing and overall superb quality tech-wise, too. As a shy person trying to get my personality across on camera, you're already at that sort of level I'm aspiring to and trying to improve on (as well as image quality). Honestly I can only see your channel going up and up, and I'm looking forward to being around for the ride! You're the sort of person I'd pay major happiness dollars to collab with tbqfh

I KNOW RIGHT?? I have a job I work to pay the bills but even after a long shift at that job there is nothing else I want to do but make videos! I spent nearly 10 hours editing my last video and nearly forgot to eat. I absolutely love making these videos and meeting everybody here on this forum. Every time I wake up and see any sort of notification from Youtube, I freak out with happiness.

Thank you so much for your kind words! I appreciate it so much

I was so nervous to put myself on camera for years then realized that if I never tried, I would regret it years later. I shot two 'pilot' episodes of my vlogs before the first one, 'How to avoid Awkward Handshakes' was uploaded. Even that one I didn't think was good enough but I just told myself to keep it up anyway. Each and every week, I get better and better and have fallen in love with creating the videos.

I think what got me through being nervous was the fact that I didn't want to regret not trying something years later. So I said f**k it. Even today, I shared my video with my Facebook friends and family, and I was so terrified, but everyone actually enjoyed it.

Again, thank you so much for all your kind words, and I'm glad you like my videos. And I'm sure we can definitely figure out a way to collaborate.
