#4 is so important

[@shinobi7748]

honestly thought that you would be a large youtuber with 200-300 k plus but was very suprised when i saw 1600 with such quality content. The channel will grow with time and commitment

Thank you, I shall never look back or upload ever again in life.

[@Imperfect_Ambition]

I agree with all your points especially number 2! Happiness is not something that can be achieved, it's something found within.

ok reddit tiktok and twitter i can pull the pin on buh bye i can live without you but discord there are people who ive never met irl who i genuinely consider friends on it and nowadays i mostly use twitter to occasionally retweet things about serious topics so i have a few doubts about deleting it and discord but reddit and tiktok? buh bye buh bye srsly tho i need a bit of guidance should i delete discord and twitter anyway well shit now im having doubts about deleting reddit and tiktok since i use the former for shitposting and rambling with people in my fandoms and the latter for watching funny things (tho both involve scrolling so im p sure i should still delete them anyway)

I'd really advise a short term detox to give yourself a bit of space from the platforms and then re-evaluate how they fit into your life. One of the biggest problems with social media in my opinion is that we didn't choose to be addicted, we kind of just slept walked into it. The journal I'm developing starts with an audit of your social media use, then you are allowed to set a few very specific rules (for example if you need to use social media for work) and then you detox for 30 days. 30 days gives you enough time to stop thinking impulsively and then you have the chance to CHOOSE how social media fits in your life.

hmmmmm alright thx! ill check back here once those 30 days have passed and tell you my results whelp, see ya then! :3

Lets skip the content for a minute you are so cute. But yeah im also not on social media

[@user-on2ni8nc2n]

Hi! I'm a medical student from Pakistan. Randomly scrolling I found your video. I just want to say your videos are really nice and you're hardworking. But improve your thumbnails. Add yourself in the thumbnails too. And enhance your video editing skills. See your competitors what they're doing and learn. You will be successful

[@selfimprovementforhumans]

Thanks for the advice
