I just hit 11 subs today! In the double digits! Good luck!

[@thecoachingmovement]

Good luck on your journey!! Well done for starting

[@DavidPerez-Reostatico]

Just recommended by the algorithm on first page. You're doing great, I like you.

[@thecoachingmovement]

Thanks 🙏 appreciate you

[@thaisbarra]

I love the "but I just did it anyway" mindset. Precious 💫

[@thecoachingmovement]

Thanks for your comment means a lot 🙏

[@theportugeeza]

Just keep pumping out videos... it's like this guys: Your phone is enough. KZbin will find your audience. Keep going brother!

[@thecoachingmovement]

Great advice. It’s about not overthinking it, trusting the process, and letting things come good over time

[@apollosmartyn]

Keep going 💪

[@Molllyharrah]

Hi, I am in the same boat as you. I’ve been working on KZbin. I want to be a full time creator so I can get the financial freedom I crave. I want to travel and share my experiences with people. I want to apply what I learned into whatever business adventures I do in the future.

[@thecoachingmovement]

I believe you can have all of that if you keep showing up as your authentic self 😊

[@iamryanward]

also new to youtube after starting with writing online, also under 200 subs, so i felt this. congrats on taking the first leap and then keeping up with it! it takes a lot of discipline to show up for that long 👏

[@thecoachingmovement]

Writing always felt 10x easier than showing up on camera. But being on camera has taught me 10x more. Good luck on your journey, hoping to see growth together!

[@TinaSotis]

"... it's about pushing out of my comfort zone ..." Absolutely. It's such important work you're doing. Not just for yourself, but for those of us watching and listening. I was really interested in what you said: you started to not be in it for the joy and went into a 4-month break from filming. Everything that you're saying is resonating with my own creative process. You also validated my view about all the "experts" out there. We don't necessarily need to go by everything they say. Thank you so much for your channel. New subscriber.

[@thecoachingmovement]

Thanks so much for the kind words means a lot. I think you’re the true expert in your channel - because you know what you enjoy, what you’re passionate about, what you really want. Listening to myself is making me better. It’s not an easy journey but it’s totally worth it - happy to have you here!

[@IamShaunSpencer]

Great video and thank you for making it. I struggled with the same thing and I am just now getting started. I've had my channel for some years but hated how I looked on camera, so I stopped doing them. Now I am finally getting back to them. Thanks for the confirmation my friend. Keep up the good work.

[@thecoachingmovement]

So glad you’re getting back into videos. Busting through the fears - it will make your stronger. Best of luck here! 🎉🙏

[@OliviaDilksArt]

[@chimeleiordye12]

Wow thank you for this video, felt like you were talking to me. I just started my channel and i was beginning to get overwhelmed with not having subscribers after i upload. I have been encouraged to keep pushing and never give up by this your video, and i won't stop, even when the subscribers ain't coming. Your videos are really good., Weldone. I just subscribed.

[@thecoachingmovement]

Thanks so much for sharing this I feel humbled. I hope you find it within yourself to keep producing content that feels authentic and meaningful to you - and eventually your audience will find you ☀️🙏

Well done mate, a lot of what you're saying hits home for me. Spot on with your delivery, there'd be no way to tell you've struggled with being on camera in the past.

[@thecoachingmovement]

[@oxigen85]

Here's an algorithm promoting like and comment 👍 One tip, try to move the camera down just a tiny bit. So your arms/hands don't get cut off so much.

[@thecoachingmovement]

Thanks for the tip and thanks for being here 🙃

[@fchaabo]

Thank you for this wonderful and straight from the heart video. It was exactly the message that needed to be heard. It is shocking that with this quality performance, you're not at 1M subs. However, you will be, I'm sure. Keep doing so amazingly! 👏🏼

[@thecoachingmovement]

Thanks so much for the kind words. It felt great making this video as well - because it was from the heart 🙏😊

[@lisamonalisahikes]

Thank you for sharing. This resonates with me as a new KZbinr myself. I have a hard time infront of the camera but have so much to share😅 I subscribed! I have a hiking/travel channel but like you want it authentic to whom I am.

[@thecoachingmovement]

My experience has been that consistently showing up, and saying what I want to say (not why I think the algo wants me to say) has developed my personality and natural ability in front of camera. I’m sure you will have a successful journey 🙏

[@oliververmilion]

Pretty sure this will help a lot of people, me included . I really was motivated and had a lot of ideas on what to talk about, after around 1-2 years I finally started, until then I was too afraid, but when I started I got easily overwhelmed by camera setup, editing, b-roll stock footage, thumbnails and scripts .. and I really got anxious and thought "ok this might be more about setup and scripting ideas but there's no place for my own ideas", even if I knew this might not be true . Videos like this one make me realize it's worth it to keep going, so thank you James !

[@thecoachingmovement]

Thanks so much for this share, it’s really powerful. It’s easy to get overwhelmed by these flashy things we think we need. At the end of the day, KZbin is about showing up in front of the camera, being yourself, and telling an interesting story. The rest is all noise. Good luck on your next steps ❤️

[@Opulent26]

I’m at lucky number 3, goal is 100 for now! Nice video, good luck! You just earned a sub.

[@mikeyCmikeyDo]

Awesome job James, you’ll continue to do great. I’m in the early stages of the process and trying not to get ahead of myself. I’m overthinking everything 😂. I’m just posting shorts for now, eventually go into longer form stuff.

[@thecoachingmovement]

I get what you’re saying about overthinking. My issue has been the more I overthink, the less authentic I am - and that results in burnout or frustration. Good luck finding your path here!

[@AmericaFirst1974]

[@scottbecker3485]

YT‘s algorithm sent me here, after I had viewed about 2 other videos by others on the subject of getting started on YT. Your title resonated, as does what you are saying. The funny thing is that none of what you are saying is actually new to me…and yet it is resonating, and helping me to overcome my own inertia as a potential KZbinr with a busy family life and a certain lack of topical focus (so far), and yet with lots inside of me that wants to be shared. And isn‘t that one of your points, after all? That folks should not second-guess themselves about their „worthiness“ or „readiness“ or whatever, but just go for it and let the audience decide what becomes of it? As such, even if what you are saying isn‘t new to me, you happen to be the one who is tipping the scales. This can be true for ANY one of us, no matter what the topic. :-) Anyhow, I subbed immediately. Oh, and I wish to commend you on being one of the very, very few KZbinrs whom I am not forced to listen to at 1.5x speed in order to save myself from spending lots of extra time online due to slow talking. Also, there‘s nothing self-obsessed, which cannot be said of a great many KZbinrs. And no haha-hoho joviality just to set the tone or whatever. You get right down to it, and that‘s great in a world of huge media choices we all need to make so as to use our online time wisely.

[@thecoachingmovement]

This message means a lot to me Scott thanks so much for sharing. In business, I used to try and map everything out with a hyper-strategised niche, plan, focus, etc. But it rarely worked out. Eventually, the path always grabbed me, rather than me forcing a strategy. I believe YT is the same, letting the niche find me. I’m naturally curious and scattered, always having 10 projects on the go. My content might be the same, but eventually my niche is finding me. Your journey might be the same 🙏

[@scottbecker3485]

@@thecoachingmovement Interesting to learn of how your traditionally very meticulous approach oftentimes didn‘t pan out. This mirrors my own experience in life, which is that when I forcibly (i.e. with great will and determination) try to force things in a certain direction, so as to achieve whatever I consider to be „the goal“, I often find tons of obstacles cropping up along the way, leading to frustration. Enter shadow work: When that happens, I allow whatever that all makes me feel to sink in deep, and to thank it (and the obstacles!) for showing up, since there is then obviously something I need to learn about my deeper motivations and needs. Bingo! That‘s when the (freeing!) revelations tend to occur, and after that, things flow much better…albeit not always in the original direction intended. ;-) I figure we are all masters of our own destiny, but only when we confess to being masters of nothing at all, but ongoing learners. Destiny is what happens when we stop trying to make it happen (haha). Your take on all this seems to run parallel to my own, which once again appears to underscore - for me, at least - how a more Daoistic way of approach life is more promising than being a self-willed dynamo hell-bent on so-called success. The good happens when we aren‘t just trying to keep the so-called bad from happening, instead. ;-) May your path be adorned with enough consternation to keep the revelations comin‘!

[@thecoachingmovement]

@@scottbecker3485 it's almost like going with the flow is the winning ticket. In business, my niche found me. I think KZbin will be the same - I'm already seeing signs of that. Feeling optimistic! :)

Going to start soon curious if u could elaborate on 'different video styles'...

[@thecoachingmovement]

You could either: a) Make highly edited videos focused on the algo and retention b) Make videos in a style that are more ‘raw’ - based on what you want to share and retain viewers through story telling/naturally For me personally, option b has become more fulfilling

Dude. I subscribe to lots of channels. Not many do i have the “bell” turned on. For your channel the bell is on. For what it’s worth, the idea of KZbin is so much about views but what happened to the old school thinking of “yield.” Worth it if you only get 3 views but all of them do business with you. Right?

That is a flex you have the IPhone 11. I have an IPhone 7. Can I still use my super older phone?

[@thecoachingmovement]

iPhone 7 is fine to get started. Audio quality is way more important than video quality. I personally usually listen to YT videos rather than watch them anyways so I’m sure many others are the same. But the most important thing is what you say and how you say it. If you have a good story, come across authentic, and display your true emotion - people will resonate
