Procrastinating on Videos

To anyone who feels like this or gets these feelings regularly here is my advice. When you arent feeling like this, make way more videos then you upload. So when you do feel like this, you have a backlog of extra videos to upload so you can take a small break.

Personally I find that its better to always get motivated somehow, but if you do struggle to get motivated then this could be a very useful option for you.

This was going to be my advice, too! Try to be a few videos ahead as much as possible so you can always have something to post, even during lazy days.

You should have fun not feel as its a job. No big youtuber did it for work but for fun.

Of course I find it fun! I just usually feel lazy at times even though those times are perfect times to make videos.
Does that make sense?

Anyways, I'm about to go recording right now. Gonna overcome this lazy virus that I have right now and stop procrastinating!
 
Find what works for you. If it isn't a fun experience being stressed about doing a new video, then maybe work out a way to do the video before stress kicks in or spread out how often you upload.
 
@TheBatteryChicken has become someone I admire. Quite a bit. *bows*
(I'm tempted to go back on Omegle tomorrow. XD)

But yeah, I'm the master of procrastinating on my videos. I think I've promised a video at least once a week for the past 6 months. I've made none yet, so that says a lot about me and my laziness. :P Don't worry guys, I'll get around to it. I kind of have to now. :x

I definitely agree with recording in bulk, so that you can have days off or whatever you need to recharge your batteries.
 
Maybe you need to relax your schedule. I'd rather not have anything to upload than post something sub par because I wasn't in the mood. In saying that, I have posted some pretty average videos just to keep my channel active at times.

I guess one video every other day does seem too much right now. It's just there're times where I feel like "Wow! I wanna make like 20 videos today!" and there're times where I'm like "Meh, not feelin' it." which is happening right now unfortunately. I'd probably try 2 videos a week/every 2 days.

Good news though, I'm uploading a video as we speak!
