When ever your in doubt just remember. If KZbin was easy, NO ONE would be working a 9-5 job. Anyone can become successful on KZbin if you put in the effort.

It's not that about that Using your brain 🧠 to create idea is very hard, actually working 9 to 5 job is the most thing to do in this world

[@chrislatiandy]

9-5 is a path anyone(literate) can take. That's why they go to school. It never even crosses some people’s minds to do youtube. There will always be people working 9-5 because it is stable, less risk.

Well written. Great reminders. After nearly two years of doing the "RIDE-CT" classic car channel, building a routine and becoming consistent, I've recently started trying to break out of stagnant patterns. It has brought more attention and helped freshen my attitude as well. Maintaining gradual growth (after monetizing in two months), setting realistic goals, always working to up my skills, listening to others (notably VidIQ), and not being afraid of trying something new and failing have enabled the channel to built a responsive community. As you noted, hosting a KZbin channel isn't a sprint, rather a marathon. Thanks for being part of my channel's team...

As a channel creator that started only 5 months, I have already started feeling a bit burnt out. Mainly because I started making my videos over 2 years ago. I've put so much effort and time into my videos only to see them get a handful of views at best. Meanwhile, I started another, unrelated channel almost on a whim and it took off to some small success, only for that one to succumb to the same disappointing point of stagnation. I don't want to quit, I absolutely love making videos, in fact, that's my full time job outside of my personal KZbin channels. I don't necessarily need to make a living off of KZbin, but I would really like to be able to improve my living and at least be able to justify the time, effort and sometimes funds that are required to make my videos. This video was very encouraging. Thank you all for the hard work you put into helping us small channels grow!

Congrats on 2 mil guys! I reached 10 million shorts views in 90 days before having the 4K hrs of watch time needed from long form so if I had tried to monetize the channel when I first hit 1K, it would’ve been on shorts. It’s hard but not impossible. My channel was meant to be a platform for other small channels to help them grow through promotion, but it went off course and I kinda got stuck in a different pattern of randomness but it was helping me grow at the time so just kept going. I’ve tried at least 5 other channels and only hit monetization requirements on ONE after 2 years before starting this one. Coming up on 1 year & 60k on this channel soon. Just keep going and don’t give up! You CAN do it!

I love this video because what you are saying is so close to the truth, in fact it is the truth! First it's a game of being recognized, to be able to reach the milestone of 1000 subs and 4000 hours of watch time, then starts a new journey, to be able to make quality content, to be consistent, life happens and sometimes it's really hard to be consistent and keep on making new content. I know this the hard way, when I opened this channel, I fell a victim to Cancer and it was so hard to make content and be consistent, I was able to do that during treatment, reached 1000 subs milestone, recovered from Cancer and then lost so many subs I am back to 922 subs! This journey is strange but it's still worth it. This video of yours is an incentive to keep on going and never loose heart.

Woooho, 1,99 million subs - almost there!! A newbie here, almost at 400 subs. So much wise words in this video, especially resonated with learning to love the process.

Went recently from trying to push out a video a week to do it every 2nd week instead and it has already helped me get so much more inspired and calm.

In my last job I grew our channel to 11,000 subscribers and over 2.5 million views over 3 and a half years and when the new owners of the company came in, they made me redundant and wouldn't let me take the channel with me, so here I am just under 370 subscribers going at it again reminding myself of that tough grind only now I own it and I get to call the shots and I can't wait to see it overtake my old one.

5 years, 17k subs but oddly, very low engagement (the audio version on Spotify is 200% bigger). But I will keep going, tweaking and trying different approaches.

🙂 It is hard for a KZbin Creator to do this solely to make a lot money fast. So do it because you love making videos on your passion (gospel, pets, comedy... etc) with the potential of reaching millions of people. This is a great motivational video, thanks bro (I needed a boost). 👍

You’ve shown us what dedication truly looks like, and it’s beautiful to witness. Keep shining; you've earned every bit of it. Thank you for sharing it in such a deep emotion with us.
