ADVICE FOR CREATIVES: 7 Life Lessons I've Learned from 2019 so far

This video is for creative people, freelancers, or anyone trying something a bit different.
7 stories (featuring Tim Ferriss and Kerser).
But yeah - figured I'd rather have this stuff out of my head, rather than in it - so let me know if this helps. Forgive me if it comes off too "self helpy"
Maybe I'm making a bit of an assumption that if you watch my stuff you're a creative type, but I feel it's somewhat safe to assume :)
Much love xoxo
HAVE A GREAT DAY

[@AtelierThams]

The advice "do it, while you're still healthy" is so important! My whole life I was drawing. I couldn't even imagine a life without drawing. And than came the day, the nerves in my wrist were so heavily destroit, I coulnd't even hold a pencil for a few seconds. ONE WHOLE year I wasn't able to draw a single line. And it wasn't sure, if I could do it again. My world broke. I didn't have any sense in the life. I nearly commited suicide, because I didn't want to life without drawing and painting. And than the wonder began to start: my nerves recovered. Slowly, sooooo slowly. But now, since a few weeks ago, I can draw again. Not long, only a few minutes per day. But it is increasing! And even with a few minutes per day I can do artworks.

[@juliefordreister]

That is wonderful! And very inspirational, thank you for posting this. I'm sorry it took you so low as to consider your life's worth, that must've been dark and scary. But you rose up. That is huge. Thank you for your honesty, and for your perseverance.

[@h0ph1p13]

you have that problem with only one of your hands. Did you try using the other one? You should be able to use it quite well with practice. At least if such a thing happened to me i would be going had to train my brain to use my non-dominant hand instead. as far as i know there is no reason you cannot become just as accurate with the other hand.

[@lizziebkennedy7505]

Bless you for sharing this.

[@embee5557]

I know your post was a while back, hope you are doing all the drawing you want to!

[@auradraws1230]

@@h0ph1p13 Idk about what happened to Thams but yeah, if it was possible that would have been my advice as well. I myself try drawing with my non-dominant hand and even my feet lol and the results are definitely not the same as with my dominant hand and that's the interesting thing about it. I'd recommend it to anyone that wants to exercise their brain a bit, it's fun, it's like when you're learning to write as a kid

[@BitchItsAle]

1. Positive reinforcement 2. Hell yes or no rule 3. Get off Instagram 1 What excited me today? 2 What drained me of energy? 3 What did I learn? For 30 days 4. If something is important, do it while you’re still healthy 5. Swear in a title for a best selling book 6. All death is different 7. Make space in your schedule for novelty. Unexpected things will happen in life. Make time for fun things in life! I had to rewatch the video like three times but made a summary for myself and decided to share :) Very great life lessons even for me! I don’t dedicate my life to art but admire artists so much for all they do in such a competitive field. The advice could be applied for anyone I loved the video. New subscriber 🤍

[@Myrrhth]

1.1. Beware the social media influence on your reward circuitry. 1.2. Break down the project into the smallest pieces possible, write down and schedule them. 1.3. Temptation bundling: combine a thing that you have to do with something that you want to do and would do anyway: eg. coffee and animating.

[@sofia8574]

5:50 answer these questions everyday (aka, journaling): 1) what excited me today? 2) what drained me of energy? 3) what did I learn?

[@nataliearciniega2103]

I saved the video for that one point! Thank you

[@milksops]

hey,, just stumbled across ur channel and this video is honestly so helpful and was exactly what i needed to hear right now. thank u so much love this advice and your art

[@Acidanthris]

"Hell yes or no" - exactly what I needed to hear today. Thank you!!!

[@bryanapeifer8349]

Def helps me say no more often

[@justA.]

Same ! Damn, 2nd video of his I watch and this is really quality content. Like what he says is really helpful for the everyday life

[@bhargav7476]

It should be "Hell yes or Fuck no", sounds better.

[@santiorduna5374]

You have a special way of talking to the camera that makes me feel like we're hanging out. I really appreciate how genuinely express yourself and are honest with everything. Thanks!

Man I would love for you to expand on the "death" part of it all. My mum passed away when I was 23, and honesty she dying was the worst fear I've had trhough my life. I remeber having dreams of her dying when I was a kid and I would wake up crying so much. I think to this day my mum was the person I have loved the most EVER. So it did happen, it was tragic but as soon as it happened I felt I had to keep going with life, and I started to ask so so many questions about existence, and in the process of doing so basically I lost a big chunk of fear of life and got an Increasing curiosity about death (and what's beyond). It ain't like I want to die or anything, I do love my life. My point is, I feel like her passing gave me such an understanding and triggered an immense chain of events that has taught me so much and has lead me to where I am today, that I can't just be good with staying in the "pain" of death. I've learned it is inevitable, (and that sounds obvious) but I think I'm OK with death now. Also my grandparents are 85 years old, and they've always been old to me (lol). There's this fear of them dying that has been cultivated in me since I was a child, like them telling me or always reminding me they are going to die some day. That has blocked me from loving them withouth limits, cause... You know... Why love them if they're going to die anyways?. So that's one thing the certainty of death can do with us, block our love though fear. But 25 years has passed and they're here and they're super healthy and still talking about the day they'll die... So I said screw it, I'm going to love them so much withouth constraints and without fear of death, cause even though it is certain, I don't even know when it's going to happen, and I rather hug them and talk to them and love them as much as I can while I can. Anyways, I love your video, it inspired me to write about this for the first time. You channel is amazing, I just came acroos it las week and I definitely love the work you're doing. Hugs and much love. Roberto, from Venezuela.

[@drich9164]

Wow! Great thoughts Roberto. Thank you for sharing! That helps me be encouraged to be more loving to family and friends. The bible tells us, "life is but a vapor". I need to make more time for others. God bless!

D Rich Thankyou for reading!. Life indeed is just a blink of an eye compared to the infinite scale of the universe, our spirit and God. I found its much better to love without boundaries instead of fearing the inevitable. 💜

[@darcgibson5099]

Thanks for this comment man, I’ve struggled with death and the death of my loved ones since I was a kid too. Almost every single day, I had to start putting The Simpson’s on as I went to sleep so my mind wouldn’t wonder into death. Needless to say I have an intense bond with the Simpsons now lol. But yeah the part about loving without limits and holding love back out of fear of the immense pain their deaths would cause was obvious, but something I needed to hear/read. So thank you brother. All the best.

[@zhiyilau4303]

dude stay strong

[@tarotbysemaj2424]

@Roberto, That was brilliant and really on point. Thank you for opening your heart and being ALL IN!!! I have always found that the best way to live.

[@zooh8017]

I don’t know why I hadn’t really realized all death is different until now, having been around a lot of death. I don’t know exactly why I’m crying but I have a feeling that was a really important thing for me to hear. Thank you

[@godzandheros]

That crying is your brain processing the closure you needed for that particular trauma.

[@awu32]

Crying too but no death

[@xocoworld6331]

1:57 finally! someone that gets it and vocalized it! I felt so alone with my art! I hate how I don't feel "rewarded" or like I didn't create something worthy because I didn't post it for likes :( I stopped making art because I didn't like how I was beginning to feel about my art.

[@PourYourArtOut]

Xoco World me too!! I felt resentful towards painting and posting! I just stopped doing it altogether but now it’s been almost a month and I miss creating so I’m going to start again, just without the pressure to post on Instagram 👿

[@Aizenau11]

Dude, 10/10 Those topics were all interesting and made me feel really appreciative for this moment I'm living in and also curious about Businessmen exposing curse words in books lmao. Keep up the great content ♥

[@struthless]

ah i am so stoked to read that!! also - business people swearing is on my mind every day. I think i'm gonna make a whole video about it coz it's a seriously consistent phenomenon

[@NickCreatesArt]

You make it so real. Sometimes I get stuck in all of these expectations of who I am. I'm a teacher, yes, but I LOVE making parody skits, photos, etc. I've been doing it all my life. I took a chance recently where I reenacted a vomiting scene for a parody of a class that I teach for adults. And I was borderline should I do it, and I just said, "Hell Yea!" and Everyone, all my peers threw love at me. So yea, I just subscribed because this is the third video I've watched and I'm already hooked. Peace, Love! AND I'm still processing my Mom's death and it has been almost 6 years! Must respect!

[@Jessica-ld4bs]

"If you get the logo done, you don't learn the lesson: don't... don't do the logo." Awesome channel, man. Listening while churning out a few small projects I've been putting off.

[@redporkpadthai6368]

When you said impossibly large project I was like "oh like making a short animated film" and alas that is exactly the beast you were tackling XD

[@MdlRose]

You are the only person in the world that talks non-stop and I really enjoy listening to. You are now officially my art therapist.

[@MsVicky11111]

I found your KZbin earlier today. I watched as many videos as I could before dinner and now I'm back watching. I wasn't expecting to cry watching this one! Thank you so much for the advice and for the videos. You are such an inspiration. I've always wanted to be a singer and finished uni last year, the worst fkin year to want to be going out to gig lol and I guess I lost momentum and definitely downward spiralled. Your videos and honesty (the 70% rule & procrastination video has resonated most to me so far) is magical, you have such a talent with your drawing and animations but with your words as well, so thank you

[@CreativeLeyMe]

Hey Campbell, I’ve been watching your videos for a few years now and just found this video of yours. I just wanted to thank you for being you and for so openly sharing these life lessons you’ve encountered. I’m 20 currently in school, but I’m taking a semester off because my mom just passed away from cancer. And that part you said about death looking different for everyone couldn’t have come at a better time for me. It’s been about 1 1/2 months since my mom passed and I’ve been feeling this new wave of sadness and anxiety over the past 2 weeks. I don’t really have a final point to make here (foggy brain from grief) but I just felt the need to let you know you’ve helped me greatly from across the world. I’m just at the start of this new version of my life and I know your videos and your art are going to continue to be a light of hope for me as time does it’s thing and moves forward. What you do matters so much and I’m deeply grateful to have found your channel. Sending you peace and love from the U.S.❤

[@TheDreamSyndicateArts]

I think you can substitute "grief" for death in "all death is different" and it works. I've mourned some deaths within the last few years, but also the ends of relationships have hit me in different ways too.

[@sonalsrivastava8695]

dude whatever you are saying makes all the sense in the world and exactly what i need to hear. so thanks. loving your channel, loving your vibe.

[@sub-jec-tiv]

these videos are gold. thanks for being you, your compassion makes the world better than it was. never feel like what you’re talking about is weird or too harsh. life is harsh, especially the older you get. keep up the great work. 🤘👏🤘

[@iamchokota]

I've been struggling even sitting down and starting to draw again and your videos have given me purpose . I appreciate you man ! Keep up the good work. Your helping more people than you can imagine . Much love ❣

[@flfb]

Your advice videos are my favourite. I love your art a lot but your advice is just... transformative. As an artist I look up to you, but as a human being I feel like you're this great mentor for life and your experience and love of living just rubs off on people.

[@bellebelle7532]

Chicko, you don't need to doubt or underestimate any part of these videos! I stumbled (serendipitously!) into you/your youtube videos only hours ago... And have watched 4 already! Officially the fastest anyone's become one of my "favourite" anythings ever! You're fckn ace!! A zillion ThankYou's for your posts .Your time, effort, honesty and artistic- teaching/knowledge sharing integrity (for want of more articulate terms!! 😝😉)are more perfect, appreciated, and positively impacting than you know 💚Much love, Bellè xxx

[@ye2low]

Damn I love this guy! I'm so glad your channel popped up on suggestions. You deserve a huge following. You put yourself out there in a way that's warm, informative and interesting. Thank you for being you.

[@justynamaria0333]

I love him showing us his storyboard 😭😭 it reminds me of when I was excited to show someone something when I was a kid. I miss that.

[@cutelittledevil88]

Can't tell you how much 'all death is different' was something I needed to hear. Lost a friend this year and without having people to mourn with I am having a hard time with the grief.

[@thadocbmusic]

Love the value you bring and the casual demeanor you deliver it in. It is relaxing, refreshing and oddly rhetorical (meaning true and easily accepted). Stumbled upon you at the perfect time in my life and i really appreciate the time you take to do all that you do. You've inspired me to act, but only because i acted first! Thanks struthless! - Doc

[@simonvegas793]

As a new sub going through your older material, it's awesome to see your evolution, and the line in the description 'Forgive me if it comes off too "self helpy"' raised a smile considering how your channel has developed. It really happened so organically I think that's what makes your stand out, and resonate with so many people.. You truly have one of the best channels on KZbin bro.

[@georgedorseyiii4629]

This vid was everything I needed right now and definitely gonna try the three questions for 30 days at the end of everyday and see how it self improves 💙

[@JackyB]

Maaan, thank you 💗 This year really isn't going the way I expected, I set myself goals that I'm finding really hard to achieve. People have died, and when the mind is busy dealing with that, the heart hurts, it can be very easy to fall into a rut. I'm digging myself out, and a vid like this totally helps! Your content these past few months have been so great to keep me company on the lonely days. Just wanted to say a big thank you, and I'm fricken proud of you! 💖! Drew up a little pic of you that I'll tag you in on insta tonight, just a little sketch while watching this video and I hope you like it. Keep doing you, Struthless! Thank you for sharing bits of your mind 💖🌻🍃

[@struthless]

damn!! i wanna heart this comment twice, this really hit me like a happy tonne of bricks. I guess you and I are both death magnets this year then, but it's nice to hear that you're digging yourself out. Can't wait to suss the insta pic! I'm taking a break from the app, but when I'm back it'll be the first thing i look for :) hope you have a nice night ❤️

[@mrsbeard5225]

Girl I feel you. Death changes you and changes your life. Im starting to think its impossible to be a former self when you go through it. It’s pretty hard to accept that this right now may be the new normal, that’s daunting.

[@carpoolgranola]

i've been binging your videos today and am enjoying very much the attitude u bring, and this is some of the most honest non condescending yet genuinely thought provoking advice . just wanted to say cheers mate

[@lucascameron5230]

You got a pretty solid list there dude. The death stuff has really been fuckin' with me lately, not so much that it's been happening in my life, cause it hasn't, but just that it happens. Like, we're so good at just shrugging it off, or treating it as a non-issue? We can't even seem to begin on focusing on it. But it happens to every one of us, and this is the only time we have as this. Like, the only time, and it all goes away, every minute it all goes away. What's worse it comes with that feeling of making the most out of everything, but then 90% of the time I just end up in the infinite scroll, or if the energy comes up, can't seem to get life to accommodate that, friends busy trying to make ends meet, family a million miles away. Just, what does it even mean to live in the now, now? What does it take to live a life worthy of your eventual death?

[@valesv1349]

I watched this video when I needed it the most. My brother died a week ago in horrible circunstances and we are all still pretty shocked about it. He was the best of all of us in any aspect. Thank you so much for the advice, take care

[@robinlewis843]

thanks for keepin it real! I appreciate where you're coming from and what you are offering

[@shareneashley5630]

You seem like such a cool, genuine person. I'm really glad your channel showed up in my suggestions. It's a welcome break from all the shallow content I've seeing. I was in such a slump in quarantine that I didn't touch my sketchbook for months. I saw the video of you characterizing all the negative voices in your head and it made me realize that I wasn't just unmotivated due to my external environment, but I was letting my own thoughts talk me into giving up. When I finally started, I realized that I was rusty af, and even wondered if I still had any skills to begin with. Any other time that thought would've discouraged me, but since I found your channel, I've drawn or painted something every single day. I feel awesome. Since April. Love the content, you're the shit, keep it up

[@samscorgie3484]

just found you randomly today and you are such a delight to listen to. So passionate about life, great lessons, and funny as f***. Such a great find and just wanted to say a thank you for making these!

[@angitaylor5685]

I just love your videos. They make me so happy. I have seen a lot of death and each one is so unique. And it isn't just unique for the person that dies. It's unique for each person they touched during their life. Each of us know people individually. We value parts of them differently, so the hole they leave in each person's life is just it's own fingerprint of their existence in that life. Thanks for sharing so much of you!

[@SRtruth]

Friggin love you and your channel. Just watched a couple other videos of yours...i'm so thankful for your artistic and eloquent delivery of relevant information/advice! 🙏

[@ourrecklesstruth]

I discovered you 24 hours ago and have watched tons of your videos back to back - they're all amazing and so, so relevant. Thank you so much for your creative content, humour, wisdom and humility... and for sharing your thought processes and practical hacks to psychological challenges - it's all been a huge encouragement to me! :-)

[@sienakoh2047]

Exactly what I needed to wake up to on a Sunday morning- your content just keeps getting better!!

[@struthless]

frik yeah!! thank you so much - so stoked you're liking the vibe :)

[@Formanian]

Great advice. Number 6 is definitely true. I have noticed that the process is similar for almost all heavy or traumatic things like abuse, addiction, a nasty break-up, or even the loss of a job. Any loss that requires some 'recovery'. With all these things you shouldn't try to measure your feelings to a standard; there is no standard. Grief runs its own course. However, if you hang in there you will eventually come out the other side and be stronger for it. You will learn important lessons and not take what matters for granted. Sorry to hear about your loss. Take care.

[@Brittneyac913]

Thank you so much for these videos. I've been in a big, not just creative, but life rut for what seems like a lifetime. Your videos just popped up on my KZbin recommendations recently and have been instrumental to me getting my groove back. What you said about making the hard choices really stuck with me, amongst other things. Your vulnerability has been so inspiring to me and I appreciate it so much! So thank you again! 🙏 Can't wait for the next video! 🤙

[@Brittneyac913]

PS love your glasses and tattoos

[@Chillander]

OMGosh! I’m 65... well, soon to be 66 and I’ve just come upon your fabulous vids! And, just in the nick of time... your golden advice boiled down: life’s short, man - focus! Much love and hugs to you!

[@piawhite7663]

Hey Cam I discovered your channel about a year ago, right when I was getting back into my art after a (20 year?) block. Coincidentally I've been struggling with my mental health the last few years and I can honestly say your channel has helped me so much. I'm using your journal prompts for my mental health and your art tips have really helped me stay consistent with my art! Keep doing what you do and thanks mate

[@jasontucker5080]

Love your channel man- thank you. As a creative business owner it’s rad to hear someone talk realistically about the process and it’s struggles

[@robertevans7554]

Dig your vibe and dig your honesty. These videos and creativity might just be the building blocks to creative breakthrough for me.

[@aalt5661]

I love your "advicy" videos , you come of very real and approachable and seem to have struggled with basicly all I have on my plate right now so hearing how you've overcome it all really helps. Can agree with most of what you've said except the hell yes part as depression keeps me from saying hell yes to anything but my bed... Anyways thank you very much you're a beautiful beeing and yeah well that's all for now👋

[@angiepants1614]

I’m really loving your videos. The advise and the life lessons you share really resonates with me. I’ve literally written them down and will start to implement them into my daily life to be better and to do better. Everyday will be different but I’m willing to give it a good go (hell yes)! Thank you for your videos and for sharing your knowledge.

[@lizamarks6874]

I had this square in my planner that I didn’t know what to do with and now watch one of your videos and put your “tips” in the box. As I’m going through my week I ponder on the advice you’ve given. So this week I will get off social media, bundle temptation, add novelty, add some excitement and only say yes if it’s something I’m passionate about. Thanks for being a part of my daily routine and improving my life : )

[@LaylaLeft]

You happened to me. This week. And it makes me really happy. We know everyone loves a good weirdo, but when that weirdo is... Real. And honest. And fucked up mentally but has a beautiful heart and therefore totally relatable, I don't know I just wanna say thank you for being you. Don't you dare stop doing what you're doing. You are spreading good shit and that's a beautiful thing. You've made a good difference that I needed already and I've only watched... Not even 10 videos. Random ones even, not ones I saw that looked relatable/interesting. So... yeah. Just know that.

[@darcgibson5099]

Came for the illustrations, nicely surprised by interesting podcasts/interviews, stayed/subbed for the life-advice realness. An all-round content buffet, loving all of it. Cozy feel dude.

[@drmirfathabdulsalam7555]

dear struthless I always wonder what you could possibly say that I have'nt already heard before and then you just totally blow my mind. You re amazing man.

[@darbius6865]

Man you’ve truly been killing it. From teaching me that it’s cheaper to actually fly to Mexico for a cocaine bender to interviewing one of the most popular artist right now, it truly astounds me. And now your bringing top 10 videos that I don’t want to die watching and actually help. So big UPS!

[@libbyrussell8278]

this is exactly what i needed this week. also, it's a while down the line but i'd like to recommend the podcast griefcast to you if you haven't heard it already. different people discussed their experiences of grief. it's hugely cathartic and much more light hearted than you'd think.

[@karinedesfosses3678]

Love love love your videos. I'm a stay-at-home mom for the past 11 years (and pretty sure I'm ADD, and lose focus very easily). Been difficult for me to do anything artistic because my brain thinks it needs loads of time to do anything, so in the end decides to not do anything at all. Or I'll take one day and do lots of art, but then not do any for months, so difficult to pick up progress. Your videos are seriously encouraging me to take baby steps (draw one thing every day for a year was the first video I watched).

[@moonlit_artist1273]

I found your channel a few days ago and have watched a few videos when I have time-- I like your style, my guy. Great stuff! Thank you!

[@enitsirp3301]

Hiiii, stumbled on your channel and I love how chill the vibe is... It was definitely not preachy since being in this mental space, your videos give me encouragement to continue working on what I've always loved doing since I was kid... drawing and art. :) I especially love how candid your videos are and how it feels like you're really talking to us. Feels very validating. And humor on point.

[@jordannebrown7]

Wow, I just found you’re channel today and I’m so happy I did. You are so open and honest and I really feel like I’m learning valuables lessons that can actually help me make my dream a reality! Thank you!

[@deadmelodies]

Holy crap! I didn't even know I NEEDED this video right now. #6 & 7 resonated so hard. I know it's going to be in the nogging for a while because I even doodled them out. Thanks for sharing. I'm glad the videos are helping you process.

[@UnionParkPlumbing]

Don't mind me, just shouting into the void.

[@djsnipa1]

So this is the 2nd video I’ve watched here and I randomly got served this channel. Dude, you are awesome! I don’t know anything about you but I’m def gonna keep watching your stuff. Thank you for the videos and great advice!!

[@deebabydoll6429]

I love you dude, you give me so much hope with my own art. Keep on keeping on, big love to you man

You’re incredible, just catching up on your existence. Thank you for you wisdom and simplicity. I wish the rest of the world would be this way.

[@SammyPaley]

Hey Cam! I just watched your most recent video and just wanted to come here to see how much you've grown as a creator. Truly inspiring video about your marathon! As a young creator it is motivating to see your progression and to know that we can all improve! You're inspiring so many people!! Keep it going

[@likeafairy]

I was watching your new videos (2021/2022)and KZbin started playing this video. I just wanted to let you know that it's great to see how much healthier you look/sound/feel now! I am happy for you! 💕 Also thank you for sharing your advice and experiences with us, you inspire me to stick with my plans and I know how you felt about Instagram, did the same 😅💕

[@JojozaHannaHawaii]

This will sound random but when I do my nightly journaling, I like to watch your channel. I find your art and style interesting but you also drop little nuggets of wisdom that resound. Like, that’s exactly what I needed to hear. I don’t usually comment and might not again, but thought I’d share that.

[@katied7956]

thank you so much. I am really struggling to get through the biggest art commission I have ever done and having your videos playing while I sculpt has been helping motivate me so much.

[@jesu3962]

I have spent the whole night watching your videos and all I can say is thank you. As a beginner in the art world, and as scared as I am, this has given me strenght to at least keep on trying. Keep up the hard work, you are a real one! I'd love to chat with you someday!

[@gwenlewis4443]

Thank you for the tips - I can relate to that feeling of being overwhelmed, overshooting deadlines due to misjudging situations and so on. I think the 'Hell yes' rule is very helpful and also the advice not to procrastinate! I gues that's a Sod's Law one! Hope your hand feels right as rain again now.

[@embee5557]

C - Have benefited so much from your content: laughs, epiphanies, reminder to take a break from burnout and it’s okay. The “we’ll see” or your bleed out and Felicity stories - how it’s woven together in a engaging way. I downloaded the compass and just got 2 of your books from Amazon yesterday, one for me and an extra to share. I wish you success, as you define it, to the nth degree. 👍🏻👍🏻

[@LukeVisinoni]

Dude this is only the second or third video of yours I've watched. Yeah third. But anyway, dude, you are incredible. I mean holy shit man. The way you seem to soak up the important lessons in your life, discard the rest and then package it up all neat and tidy for your viewers is, well... incredible. You have inspired me to try to be more observant, I sort of have this way of sitting in the passenger seat of life with headphones on, not paying close attention to where I'm going. And because of that, when I'm in situations where I'm in the driver's seat, I tend not to know where I am or how to get back home. Hopefully that metaphor made sense and I didn't torture it too much. My point is, I am exceptionally bad at learning from my experiences and I tend to make the same mistakes over and over. You have inspired me to get into the driver's seat and freakin pay attention. You have earned yourself a sub and a loyal viewer my friend.

[@sydneybturnerart]

KZbin put one of your videos in my recommended and I'm so glad they did! You are awesome and I love these advice-style videos because you are incredibly honest and it is a joy to listen to your take on life. Really looking forward to more!

[@mialarsson4972]

You gave me such a big laugh during the first half of the video! So relatable! Thanks for sharing your amazing stuff and wise thoughts with us 👌

Hi! I just stumbled upon you by chance yesterday while looking for Procreate videos. The title of the video is what made me jump on it......The Drawing Advice That Changed My Life. After watching that, I immediately Subscribed to your channel and have watched several more. You give really great advice that has really helped me because so far you've totally addressed areas where I stumble. So glad I found you!

[@santran9602]

Just found your channel and I gotta say I love your personality and your style. Thanks for existing!

[@anikamiller6204]

I am here for the combination of art + advice + storytelling you've got going on. Hell yes to watching your videos!

[@timocheah8746]

Hey! This video was really helpful and I enjoy the wholesome approach to your videos! I'm a fellow creative and notes are being taken. I often struggle with saying no to things so it was refreshing to hear this :)

[@MildVariety]

Loving your content dude! Appreciate the realness and advice. Keep it up!

[@struthless]

massive thanks!!

[@MellaBella8]

love how you've given my M.O. for 20 years as a freelancer a title... temptation bundling! that's def helped me get thru some very boring work... which brings me to how much I needed the hell yes advice. obviously... HugeThankU!

[@veronicajakubowski3868]

Wow love ur content on the channel! I’m a independent producer and I love seeing other people in their own creative fields and how all artists have the same struggles no matter what media you work in. Thanks for all the advice.

[@sherrydolanski4119]

Just came across u last night. Wow! “I’m” gonna be corny. You’re Awesome! Love you! 😆 You’re relatable, inspiring, hilarious, give a lot of great advice in A LOT of areas that are spot on for me (I discovered my “PASSION” & “LOVE” for art a little latter in life & it’s a bit scattered, I do lots of things 🤪🥳 but it’s Me & I’m not givin up on it.). I’ve gotten so much out of your videos already!! You have no idea!! Fun to watch too. Thanks from Texas! 💙✌🏻 oh, & that accent! 👍🏻😄

I went to my school counsellor about how I missed my bird ( he was my best friend ) and she told me that I had to move on because it had been 2 years but I feel less bad about missing him because of this, thank you

[@bee909]

So glad I stumbled on your channel. The advice you give and the perspective you have is really valuable. I really like the energy you bring to the videos--like we're all friends having a chat and for some reason I'm just being super quiet so you're doing all the talking. It's helping me a lot with the loneliness I've been experiencing. The friends I had moved out of town and how do you meet new people in a pandemic?? Thank you for being you and doing what you do.

[@elizaportas5379]

i love how your videos impact all people! And loved to realize that the comments about yours videos have more likes than dislikes (or just don't have dislikes!). This just don't happen in internet, every comment on any social media has dislikes or agressive subcomments (even if the comment is a dot ".") Thanks to bring this vibe!

[@JoeTurek]

I love how this has suggestions that are so oddly specific, "If you write a business book, swear in the title" perfect

[@MelliaBoomBot]

Really good, just found you today, Ive had my up and downs and you've reminded me to remember my ups. Good man, hello from France.

[@Jeannineross]

Yess dude, I love this! I got off the gram last year and couldn’t be happier. What’s funny is when people reach out as if something terrible happened like “Heyyyy, is everything *okay*???” Meanwhile I’m over here actually enjoying life and everything is even more dandy. I’ve also been known to disappear randomly so yeah. Also, I lost my 29 year old brother in June and this helped me more than you know. Thank you for that. Congratulations on all the success! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@artanddesign8561]

Hey man just found your channel, you’re fun to listen to. Love that accent and your ozzy expressions are great. Thanks for that good advice about drawing the same thing every day for a year, I am going to take that advice and see what I can do with it. Thanks for the post. And most of all thanks for keeping it real!!

[@Cpt_Chirp]

some great advice in here, and also you're "the best advice I ever got" video was as well. great channel, glad the youtube algorithm decided to serve it up to me.

[@spunkiQT]

I appreciate all this advice, definitely very solid and real. I really like the idea of repeatedly answering those three questions, I think I'll try to do that!

[@nithyashreeraja5241]

Literally these video of yours need to be put in a playlist named " Learning life lessons in perspective of art".... I am really feeeling decluttered after seeing this vdo! ❤❤❤

[@GM-iw2zj]

So amazing to realise that something you recorded nearly two years ago is exactly what I need right now. Thank you thank you thank you. Xox

[@crisclucas5182]

I work with young adults (18 to 25) and your videos relate to what they are going through and what I am going through as a 50-year-old-woman. Thank you for sharing your wisdom. All the best with the bubba - the best lessons are yet to come. :)

[@AzerPaul]

Just all around fine production. Your brain filters content and allows only the really good stuff through. Good man.
