Love and Harmony... with Barbari

[@jsojkausa]

Ha, ha... Right, Barbara, I haven't turned-On my TV in more than 6 months. But, I do spend hours daily consuming KZbin Content. 👌

[@TheBarbaraHorvat]

I watch a lot of cinematic vlogs on TV so I get a combination of both hah. But I do watch more KZbin than TV for sure

[@michaelblacktree]

I watch youtube on the TV, like it's TV. LOL. But seriously, I ditched cable TV years ago. I tried satellite dish, but wasn't impressed. So now it's youtube and a few streaming services.

[@scottinphoenix739]

"The cons...are just pros in disguise" - love it !!! I also found myself watching more YT than TV around 2018/19.

[@manfredbismark6688]

Smart Barbara! Rudi.

[@yliaster-cyber-alchemy]

I started my channel this April and I gotta tell... It's been terrible 😅 - I'm an introvert and therefore I suck over 9000 at talking to the camera but I'm learning... Will I give up? Hell no. By the way, I like your brutal authenticity. You're the REAL deal, friend.

[@AtibaVV]

Legend I remember ur videos with Derrick back in the day glad he still going hilarious and wholesome content. Cheers and blessings friend222

i laughed so hard when i saw your Vid-Title, because i currently work towards beeing a Creator and just closed a script-file. So thank you for that pep-talk 🤟

That is absolutely a niche yes

Challenge accepted! Thanks to this video as a reminder to take action, I'll start my KZbin channel! najlepša hvala za vse Barbara :) Btw: I'll live in Slovenia 🇸🇮 for the next 3 months and I'm sure I'll create some content from there to get inspired ✨ Cheers from México 🇲🇽

[@djmandrick]

I've had two other channels made for two years, no uploads. One of which I've got a vid in final edit that i still haven't posted it. Just can't be happy with it but more months go past and i know i need to get more time to do parts 2 and 3 and learn to edit properly. i know the whole consistency upload schedule and all that and the hump to learn all it all is to much for now. Like its been for two years. It's a niche content area so more widespread than most would travel to or find and a LOT of competition in the area from channels I've already followed for years. The whole dj channel never worked out due to copyright (this was created back when YT was new). Three strikes in one mix and you're done. Maybe I'll get round to it. I want to but just with job and other life commitments i never seem to get the time to sit down and do it. I also want to use Da Vinci Resolve now over adobe as its free. So th'as a whole other learning hump to get over. One day.!

[@matajification]

Color me old fashioned, but I still prefer textual blogs & blogging. Video blogs are typically 15, 30 minutes long, and I simply don't have that much time. AFAIC, reading & typing is much faster.

Hey to each their own. Whatever works best for ya!

[@jamesbrown4092]

I find it difficult to support some channels when 2 out of 3 videos disappear before I even get a chance to see them.

[@glengardner4126]

Thanks for the "Somewhat interpretation" of your previous video...or am I sleeping and my dream-child translated the previous vid for me? If the latter is the case, sleeping me is really smart because he's bilingual as well as being brilliant enough to imagine one of the most brilliant and beautiful girls in the world.

Im not an extrovert in any sense of the word. I had a stroke 2 years ago and cant speak or think properly anymore. Dont have a laptop or computer or any tech skills at all. Never been passionate about anything in my life aside from experiencing other people's stories. Should i start a youtube channel?

"I Dare You" is a book by William Danforth.

[@a3hmax913]

IT'S NEVER LATE but I noticed something horrible about the "new" channels, KZbin promotes a lot some channels for their first videos, and they rise a lot on views from the beginning, but they die in 4 to 6 months because when thet stop being New stuff KZbin stop promoting them. So everybody's chance its about making their naterial really good from the beginning.

[@TheBarbaraHorvat]

I've seen lots of new channels who have been posting for a while and their 7th or 9th video gets recommended. I think it's just a part of the journey of finding an audience.

Ya, but the camera doesn't love me. I hate the way I look on camera. I AM UGLY ON CAMREA !!

Don't say that. Lots of camera appearance comes from confidence. If you bring value to people, you'll find an audience. remember that no one sees you like you see yourself and we are our own worst enemies. Most likely people will see you through a positive lense if you just follow what you love to do

Barbara, I'm keeping my subscription to your channel, but I think I just decided that Slovenia is not for me, after all. I understand that migrants from both, African nations as well as the Middle East are starting to slowly infiltrate the country. We have enough problems with our southern border here in the US. So I think I'll just stay here and fight if necessary for my own sovereignty.

[@travelinkevin5130]

You make good points. The cons don't actually flip so easily to pros. Your viewpoint is from someone with 47.5k subs. Add a zero to that and see how many times you get sued. Legal fees eat enough of the income of some channels, to the point that they throw in the towel. Some of the creators ARE attorneys, so they have a big edge there. Maybe some are married to an attorney, which would be an effective team. I looked into it a few times and concluded it's just not worth it, due to the violent nature of this world.

[@TheBarbaraHorvat]

I have never seen anyone dealing with legal fees to that extent. I think that's an exception not a rule and not something that usually happens. It's not wise to find "things that could go wrong" just to be safe and not start anything, in my opinion. Millions of creators are living their best lives thanks to this platforms. I also started a channel from scratch last year so yes, I know what it's like to start fresh. The 47k also came recently, for years this channel was dead. I think it's a matter of perspective and passion. If you focus on the good, good follows 🤗
