It's so easy to fall into the perfection trap. Your next post needs to be flawless. You become so obsessed with the idea that you need to be perfect that you go silent. Stuck in your own head with only yourself as an audience for your thoughts. People are waiting to hear from you, today is the time.
Many people are reporting lower views on YouTube in the past few months. It's tempting to go into panic mode and dedicating all your time to trying to beat the algorithm, or feeling rejected and end up quitting. Remember, YouTube is a long game, don't stress the small swings. #YouTubeCreators
I subscribe to over 50 channels on YouTube and yet none of their videos appear in my home feed. Subscribers are becoming less and less important on YouTube. It's not the golden number anymore. Focus on making your next video 1% better and stop stressing over subscriber counts.#YouTubeCreators
I have multiple YouTube accounts and social media profiles. Some will die, some will grow, but each time I try something new and experiment I'm getting closer to finding my north star. Sometimes you need to throw stuff around and see what sticks. #YouTubeCreators
Most successful creators didn't start out with it all worked out. They weren't following a blueprint. They experimented, they failed, they pivoted.
It's messy, it's unplanned, it's a journey... And it's meant to be that way. There are no shortcuts.
Embrace the journey 💪

I'm 46 years old. Now is the time to figure out what I *really* want to do with my life, and do it. Who's in the same boat? 🤔 #over40 #secondact
For decades now "Google it" has been used like it's a word in the dictionary, it's synonymous with finding answers. Lately for the first time I'm noticing that fewer and fewer people say Google anymore. The common response now to finding answers in the world is — "Ask ChatGPT"
... It's begun 🤖 #AI
Real talk, these are things that have been holding me back as a #creator in 2024 that I really want to eliminate or improve on in 2025
🧠 Overthinking ideas so much they never get made
👀 Watching other peoples content looking for validation
🦹🏻 Imposter syndrome
Relatable #youtubecreators?
Ever had an idea for video content and then spend the next hour looking for similar videos doing the same thing and end up not making it because you don't see other creators doing it?
Stop looking for validation from others before you start. Just post it. #contentcreators
And improve on something each time, no matter how small
Stop thinking about NICHES and start thinking about PEOPLE.
When you start thinking about who are you talking to instead of just what you are talking about you'll be able to come across more authentic and relatable to your audience and build community. #youtubecreators

Does watching your old content make you cringe and want to delete it? ✋ STOP 🛑....
... If your old content doesn't make you cringe then you are not improving enough. Never delete your old videos, they are a testament to how far you've come. #contentcreators
On my One Plus Pad 2 I can split screen it with another app and I get it the right way up but that's a ballache 👀
Aaah slashdot... Memories.
On my OnePlus Pad 2 I can split screen it with something else and I get it the right way up but that's a ballache
Yeah that works, but I want the native app to just work on a tablet, not too much to ask 🤷🏼♂️
I really want to ❤️ #BlueSky but little things like this hold me back @bsky.app
Until recently, threads all the way but the tide is turning a bit, I'm seeing an uptick on bluesky. I still find discoverability better on threads though
I still find that discovering the right tribe to follow on #bluesky is cumbersome sometimes. Feeds seems like a good idea but in reality most are just unmaintained and empty and its very hard to find anything relevant... I think feeds wants to be something curated articles on Medium but it misses.
Clearly I do not want to know whats in your inbox Pawel😬
Dear people in my inbox....I am not looking for a coach to grow on social media, but if I was I would skip you in a heartbeat if you have your car in your profile picture🗑 .... #ContentCreators
How much did they have to pay you to pose for that shot, Rob? 😂
👉 The first rule of content creation is to make what you love making in the way that you love to make it. Everything else comes second. #contentcreator 🫶
I just got accepted as an early adopter for loops.video. I'm still not sure what to expect and waiting for the Android app to drop, but curious if anyone else is looking to try this out? YouTube is my home right now but I'm always keen to try new things. #contentcreators
I'm still rooting for BlueSky over Threads but the discoverability aspect still seems lacking. It's easier to find the your tribe on Threads. That said, I love some things about BlueSky especially domain based handles, genius
20 years ago we did it with just BASH and glue 🤔
Growing a small #YouTube channel takes work but it's a rewarding process if you're making content you're passionate about. These milestones give you so much motivation to carry on. 1000 amazing subscribers. Thank you 🫶 #smallyoutuber #youtubecreator

I look at three big #YouTube channels that don't play by "the rules" and go against what all the gurus teach and yet are huge channels by simply making what they love and connecting with their audience. Let's talk about braking the rules #youtubecreators #smallyoutuber 👇

99% of creators fail by trying to do what 99% of other people do. Content Creators truth bomb. Happy Sunday everyone. #contentcreator #youtubecreator
I know the feeling!
