You Are Burning Out. Here's How To Stop.

Burning out on KZbin? Loosing motivation easily? Feeling lazy, but can't explain why?
Burnout is a crazy feeling that can be the point of reason for so much struggle on youtube. I have ALWAYS struggled with it myself. It's only recently that I have been able to find a way around it, which in this video, I will share with you.
Thanks to ‪@MikeCrocker‬ for that epic lego segment. And thank you to ‪@JamFam1957‬ for editing the main three parts of this video! I love you guys!
also, special guest ‪@immediatebang‬ !

What brings me back after a burnout is “Reverb_Sound_Effect_6.mp3”

Wow! The fortnite Fishs has involve in IQ!

the fart one?😂

Vine boom does it for me.. but the volume has to be all the way up

[@4Dul6969]

Wasn't expecting a therapy session right after feeling burned out from a 7h editing session but I'm glad for it.

[@hieuvu4182]

how could you sit that long ? I can never sit for more than 2 hours before I need to go out and get some fresh air in my lung.

[@SiddTheKing]

@@hieuvu4182 take breaks and treat yourself. every 1 hour take a 10 min break. do something like an exercise or just walk or do something that u like. u can also eat treats to reward urself but dont go over the calorie limit lmao

[@mariokarthotwheels]

Lol I make edition like for 10 to 12 hours in a row bro 😅everyday, since 6 months ! 😅

hey, your in the vetitor server...

Dude I'm spending 2h30 for both editing and thumbnail. 7 hours of work is crazy..

This video is underrated, very realatable for a lot of people I believe,

[@FrostBurn69Thingy]

BENNY!!!

[@FakerUp]

I really needed this video bro. Thank you!

[@TFVGaming]

All i can say that when this video dropped a month ago, i was in the worst state of my life, i had my channel blow up all my life when the game of FIFA released every year in Sepetember but last few months were tough, just realised the competition increased and people were able to challenge me right in the gut. Fell down in the deep anxiety hole and will never forget what i felt. All i can say is that this video helped me to put me in the right head space. Im not going to lie i watched this video about 2-3 times a week sometimes to remind myself that creating content is more important that thinking about stats and views and after realising about controlling what i can and not worrying about what i cannot. Thank you so much FIN! Would love to connect with you on discord! Thank you so so so much for this video!

[@saradamsgarcia6517]

Nice

[@SushiWithAGun]

You got this man! Much love and support, keep pushing because you never know, what you consider under standard for you might be inspiring to others.

[@Manners_10]

I’m convinced that if you made an hour long video it would feel like 5 minutes. The flow of storytelling is unbelievable bud - Can’t wait for the next one 😁

[@sunowaddle2470]

Wow the story telling, editing in general production in general is insane! Keep up the extreamly good job Finzar! :D

[@Poopsalad]

I haven’t edited for 3 months after my burnout, seeing this really helped me! To know that you’ve been struggling with the same battles makes me feel less lonely on this topic. And now after watching this, I’m going to put aside the glamour and unrealistic expectations and just have fun, be me, and enjoy the ride! Can’t wait to return to KZbin!

[@Shxdowboy]

This is a VERY important topic. Burnout just occurs sometimes and there's little you can really do except take a step back for a while. Personally, the thing that has helped me the most is taking things slow if I feel like I'm losing motivation. Just relax for a bit, think of a plan, organize my work. It can help untangle your mind. (P.S: 0:08 hey, look who it is! I made it into the video lol)

[@ImpactProps]

Yep this hits home for me! Thanks for making this vid!

[@PlanetSamix]

Surrounding yourself with an online friend group that also makes videos that supports you is one of the things that has kept me going so long personally

[@deadsp3ctre]

Lucky man

[@Normee]

Yeah been feeling this recently, finzar you are big brain i love you

[@MedioCore]

Love this video! Thanks for shining a light on these issues! I removed my KZbin Studio from my phone altogether, and it saved my sanity. Channel started doing better after that, as well. Hope everyone stays sane and healthy in their KZbin Journeys!

[@Cheese_OW]

My videos would not look HALF as good without Fin's tutorials and presets. Actual God-send. Keep yourself well, Fin. We will support you!

[@Dakocity]

Finzar, from your presets to your guides and advice, you have been an absolute gem to my KZbin Journey. Thank You :)

[@AlphaMC]

Hugely underrated, as a Minecraft creator I can relate to this, and constantly checking views, subscribers, and retention

[@yourpalgames]

Finn setting the standard with that editing once again - epic video with a message that hits home!

[@LuroxTV]

Your editing is sooooo good. It makes me wanna watch more of your videos!

[@RETROACTIVETV]

Legendary storytelling + you’re truly helping creators and editors get better. Thank you brother 🙏

[@BigTea]

I’m a little late to these videos, but it makes me really happy that you made them. It feels really good to see a person from your channel size not only succeed, but also give your realistic perspective that got you to this point. Sometimes it really feels like your next video is only going to do worse than the last and it looks like the goalpost is just moving further. Sometimes you have NEGATIVE motivation to get a video edited and it just makes you second guess the entire video even more. Thanks for showing that you can work your way through this stress and make it happen.

[@sweetlylorelei]

This is extremely relatable in some ways, because the journey is not easy but with time it'll get better. Giving some time to simmer, let the word spread out over time, the exposure to sink in and it'll come through. You've got this!

[@Villainz]

Definitely gonna make my own video soon detailing my own journey so far and experience with KZbin burnout. Fin you've got no idea how much I appreciate your videos! I've said it before but someday Fin is going to be indirectly (or directly) responsible for creating the next biggest creator on the platform.

[@TheReaper1]

Hit so many key points that it was almost as if you were in my mind watching me through the struggle that is KZbin. Oddly enough I was bricked up the entire time. Another great video Fin, keep at it! Your comedy and expertise are always a pleasure and don’t let KZbin studio tell you otherwise!

[@WUTTAHOOT]

This just exposed me so hard... Thank you so much man. I really need to hear this... u just earned a new sub my friend👍

[@Nebalityy]

really appreciate this fin, i've studied the youtube algorithm for like a year and a half now but only started making videos about 2 months ago... I burned myself out so bad so i've took a step back at the minute to really think how not to burnout as i literally wake up go on my computer then go to bed after hours and hours of doing youtube every day. Ive learned so much about youtube and taught myself how to edit but when i go to make videos it all falls apart, like i always end up disappointed in my videos even though they are doing well for just starting uploading. I really am trying to fix the problem and this helps a lot so I appreciate it lol :)

[@EvanArgenal]

This is exactly what I needed to hear. Thank you so much Fin for making a video like this! Based on my last uploads, it’s very clear that I’ve been making less content with larger gaps and I honestly thought KZbin was going to be easier when I first started. Keep up the amazing videos! Whether you upload once a week or once a month, I know it’ll always be a banger ❤

[@AlfredoMagbual]

love how you dove into your own experience with youtube and its current state! after doing youtube for a couple years, i definitely think these tips would’ve helped me out so much when i first started out. great tips and awesome video finzar :))

[@roro6064]

Honestly going through this right now. You hit so many points on the nail. Thank you for this video. Honestly helps me understand a lot on what’s going on and how I can move forward with creating content❤️

[@thosedzones6430]

Thanks man! needed this and u came at the right time, you're not only growing your channel, you're helping people out to start their journey!

[@anhudy]

absolutely needed to see this! i'm personally just ending a ~6 month break from uploading, in this time "away" from my channel i've found a lot of success as an editor for other KZbinrs / TikToker's, working for others allows you to see how you've incorrectly viewed your own thoughts about KZbin. all in all, i couldn't agree more with all of the points you made in this video. props for the Bon Iver clip, it's so applicable to art

[@AikoiEmil]

Thanks mate. I needed this video. Take care of yourself guys!

[@phatmemer69]

bro you're so talented! helped me massively on my YT journey

[@JonnelArt]

Thanks for sharing your experience. KZbin for me has been overwhelming and I'm taking it way too seriously. You made me realise that I can just chill, keep it fun, and stress less. I was trying to make money as fast as humanly possible, but with all that weight on my shoulders, it's really not worth it. I have decades of time ahead of me, and as long as we stay consistent, we will definitely get there. Thanks for your insight!

[@LilGasmask666]

I’m definitely guilty of checking the YT studio app often XD. I started only checking a couple times a day and it helped. Great video homie

[@User7]

dude, i felt every second of this video i used to check studio way too often and it really consumes you at some point, and if you start viewing at as a buisness, the youtube game changes. and yes, it can be a very lonely road especially if you focus on daily uploads... been watching you for like two years now or something, i love that we may think the same way!

[@WorldWT]

Fin, i keep coming back to this video. This video seems to be exactly what I needed in the space of KZbin, it sets boundaries from youtube and my real life I never knew were needed. This is one of your best, and one of my personal favorite videos you’ve ever made. Never stop youtube.❤

[@louaista]

your editing is too good 😫😫

[@SuperSoltzBros]

Such great advice for a new KZbinr such as myself. I’ll keep all this in mind and probably watch this video multiple times 😝 Thanks for the amazing content as always!

This was absolutely spot on, fantastic and the most relatable thing I've ever watched.

[@KaizenTutorials]

Inspirational video my dude! It's a healthy point of view to have on KZbin in my opinion. Thanks for sharing. 🙌

[@NoThisIsAlex]

Thanks Fin. You're someone who has helped me out on my KZbin journey since I started. At first it was all technical, but I never would've thought I'd be getting mental health tips too. Appreciate you.

[@ForGlorrry]

finzar I absolutly love you because you help others

[@SimplyAshton]

This video really spoke to me. Every one of the points you've made in this video is something i'm either battling currently, or i've experienced in the past. Thank you for highlighting these issues and presenting them in a way which makes them feel less like personal issues, but rather something we all battle through as full time creators. I particularly liked the part where you mentioned the mindset of creators who've just started - it bought me back to when I first began making videos and how differently I looked at things, compared to my current outlook on the creation process. Also, a massive thank you to your Finn, for the incredible preset packs and content that you regularly continue to put out for us. My Channel's work has been improved 10x since I started watching you and bought your preset packs, which have opened up an entirely new window of opportunity for my videos. These tutorials, along with videos like this one, make it feel so much more possible to make this my long term career and achieve my long term goals. Cheers mate.

[@MaddoggComics]

Damn, I needed hear this, so thank you! It's easy to think that burnout is just normal tiredness, but they're two different things. Sometimes I'd just look at Premiere Pro just to feel like I'd done something, whereas like you say, it would've been more productive to just step away. Thanks for doing this, man! Wishing you continued success in your future!

[@DaOneWhoEdits]

literally what i need rn

[@geafton]

Yo, just wanted to express my gratitude. I’m so glad I found your channel, your “how to” videos have been a huge help with learning to edit and use premiere pro. I still have a lot more to learn, but I’m more confident than before I started uploading videos. Thank you for your help, can’t wait to see more of your content ❤️

[@ElementaryBrewingCo]

Love your vids dude, and great tips! Thanks for sharing! Cheers!

[@ZdravoRaja]

You madly analyzed my every thought that has been going through my head since I started my KZbin journey. literally every second of the video is me, you were in my head. We are all waiting for a boom to fall into the algorithm. Only the most persistent and constant succeed. Hats off.You motivete me to keep grinding.GOOD LUCK!

[@thunderbruh]

One of the best intros I've ever seen, great video! So inspirational!

[@puzzLEGO]

It’s crazy because it’s impossible for most non-creators to understand it. I remember before I was a creator watching big creators quit like “why would they do that? They make so much money”

[@flemdogscience]

Thanks Finzar! Really enjoyed those thoughts. There are very very few content creators that I wish would make longer videos. You are in that crew. I appreciate all the work that goes into making interesting thoughts come alive. Reminds me I need to slow down and just enjoy some editing. On a little side note, I would be curious what type of videos you would want to make now if you were to start something new. Throw one in some time.

[@mrViz]

It's amazing how like-minded we are and how I came to the same conclusions over the years

[@JustLukeMorgan]

This was exactly what I and many others needed to hear. Thank you❤

[@SonKosen]

Great video dude, I've also been burnout before so I just need to learn to take my time.

[@BarelyGamer]

Fin, I've been watching your content since you had 9k subs, 3 years ago or something... You gave me advices and encouragements even in the comments under your videos! Because of you I started freelance video editing, and it's changing my life. I still want to get back on making my own content and this video made me realize I burned out a long time ago... You're one of the few who actually "gets" the problem and after watching this I'll completely change the approach Thank you for all the work you've done throughout these years! And thank you for all the tutorials and advices!

[@Kristoff0402]

Man I needed this. I'm so fixated on getting big I've completely lost the focus from the creative process. Just recently did I start rebranding my channel from funny-ish gaming videos to educational content. I'm so glad you made this! Go Fin, Go!

[@RealJustinZiegler]

Great vid FIn. Hope to see you at Vidsummit 2023!

[@Swasti1]

Wow, these tips were amazing and much needed.

[@TheFranswahStudio]

Finzar - I'm currently going through that transition of learning to let go of the dream version of my youtube career to allowing youtube to be a job - and I this video really helped me see how that is effecting me - not only that but the amount of energy I've had to create has nearly diminished because of the amount of mental energy its taking just to keep myself going and striving for this goal when I know that if I make a specific type of content I will get more views - I appreciate you help... this video was a big success for me and I cant thank you enough

[@Claudiuyoro]

Amazing! I feel like a lot of youtubers (including me) have this feeling of "Oh, I have so much to show to the people", but once we are on this journey, everything seems to be under our expectations (imagination vs reality) mainly because of 0 experience which is absolutely normal at the beginning. I started recently to focus on what I want to offer to the audience and enjoy the whole process and things started to look better. Keep it up with the good work, finzar!

[@saultoons]

Appreciate all your tips and insights, thanks for sharing!!! Not enough people talking about this. Ive been trying to grow my stuff for a while and I’ve seen a little success but my goodness I can relate to absolutely everything you said in this video. Being obsessed with the analytics to them even driving the things I make… and they perform worse! Stepping back, not looking at analytics anymore, and just focusing on what I want to make has been so good for my brain. You mentioned making better content and I think it’s funny because reducing my expectations and putting less work into an edit that really didn’t need to be overly crazy (retention though?!?!!!?! Nah 😂) has made my relationship with video making a lot healthier.

[@enartogo]

How does it feel like you are talking directly to me and my situation in every single video lately. It’s almost weird how much every point you make feels like it applies to me. It’s extremely soothing though. Thanks Fin!

[@suifilet]

Really enjoyed the video! I hope this video was fun to create and you make more of it periodically.

[@debayanmondalvlogs3565]

This editing is next level, simply amazing! Keep up!

[@DS6Prophet]

I am glad you also feel this way! I made the same mistake years ago. Now I just don't really care, I just do my thing & see how it goes eventually. Since I don't have too much time, I do it when I can, mostly like a break from the real life BS. Love your videos, Fin! You're the 🐐

[@JoesoeYT]

Yep, this is indeed true. I have been experiencing some of it myself. Not because of working loads of hours, but just not having enough creativity and inspiration for the genre I create videos on. Atm I'm trying to figure something out to regain my inspiration & dedication, but it's hard man. Anyways, thanks for the video. Needed it badly and appreciate it. :)

[@mugen-PT]

Been with you for a min Fin, always loved ya entertaining and helpful af tips. shame that it hit you the way it did but I’m glad you’re able to address the burnout. Keep creating and thanks for the amazing advice.

[@Im_OP_Everyday]

The analytics point really spoke to me I even turned off vid IQ cause I was constantly trying to get my stats up and never really "turned off my brain" but ever since I started taking breaks from it all its really helps

[@braaaraaa]

Great video Fin! You taught me how to edit when I first started KZbin. Thanks for all your help and support

[@elitecut]

Nice man i always end up with net positive value after viewing your videos!

[@TergoLive]

This video helped a ton for sure man i have felt the burnout before and tried to remember why I was doing it in the first place but this really helped me get back on track mentally 😊 also knowing that I am not the only one that has felt the burnout helps also!

[@demorbe-official]

Finzar. Watching your videos is really amazing I love how your videos really provide value I wish greatness in your journey

[@vivekail]

Damn. I really needed this video. My screen time says i look studio app more than any other application. It is a freaking addiction.

[@SpookyDeer]

This is a great video and I appreciate that more creators are starting to speak more transparently about the struggles of the creator space

[@MikewasShockedOG]

Bro, thank you so much. Thanks for this, I will take this and apply it to my life. I will focus more on myself and less on youtube. When I am succesful It will be thanks to you

[@MetalBricks]

As a Lego fan and a Lego stop motion animator I appreciate that he had some Lego StopMotion in this video I love it even more now

[@Mokhalbous]

You are honestly the only one on youtube who I find funny and really useful please keep it going

[@GreyGamingGG]

I needed this video. Bad. Currently in that "stepping away" mindset as I've grinded myself into oblivion with unrealistic expectations. It easily goes from fun to infuriating when you are quite literally stuck in "KZbin brain". It's a lot of pressure so it can be hard to walk away for a bit, but watching this reassured me that it will be perfectly fine if I take a quick break. Thank you Fin.

[@deadsp3ctre]

Hey congrats on 20k that’s mad!!

[@HappyGamerNick]

I didn't know I needed to hear this... Wow. Finzar you're literally the best youtuber out there. For real. Thank you

[@MarioStinson]

Wooow what an incredible video bro, it gave me that motivational boost I needed, as a content creator, receiving all these words helped me a lot, I felt very identified and made me realize that I'm not alone, thank you very much Fin, you're incredible

[@crob5030]

Fin always dropping hot wisdom. I easily become obsessed over editing and analytics and recently I took a fat break and realized this was not the way. I started making videos to have fun and turning into a potential business just ended up stressing me out. I just wanna have a good time and do my best. Thank u Finzar

[@grafinx]

Bro I love all your vids but this one felt super relatable and felt so good knowing that there are others with the exact same burnout problems like me ☺️ I definitely don’t feel alone anymore on this journey ❤🍍

[@DrippyJeff]

german subscriber here, Thank you for sharing your tips and for openly talking about the exhausting sides during the youtube journey. I just started my journey a few months ago and I notice that I feel quite exhausted sometimes cause of all the editing. I won't quit, cause my momma didnt raise a quitter. You are a big inspiration and indeed one of the best editors i've ever seen on youtube. Keep up your good work, much love from germany.

[@leonjhendrix]

Loved this video and the editing

[@DenzoVAL]

I can relate :) my channel got suspended but haven't given up on myself.. Thanks for the therapy man, glad for it.

[@Sayhyuun]

finzar’s storytelling getting better with each upload :D

[@JaimeLight]

Thanks man! I am just a starting youtuber. But thanks for believing in us. Thats what I got from this video, that this guy doesn't even know me believes in me. Thats great.

[@lifeofascrambler]

Love the Real Talk dude 🤙🏼 especially the feeling that each video “is the ONE!” - so true 😂 keep it up.

[@aussierozzie9375]

This actually really helped thank you Fin

[@luwhiisky]

You really know what video I’m looking for now. Thanks Fin

[@GrimRplayZzYT]

As far as i know, most youtubers dont talk about these things (mostly the loneliness part and others) in a video dedicated to it and also telling about a past experience of themselves. This is the reason why I like finzar so much and he always tries these new types of content styles now and then which are refreshing and also hella motivating. Keep up the inspiring work fin!!! :)

[@RedDwarfNerd]

Really great advice bud, some great points to ponder on!

[@JaycePatrick]

Like everyone else stated, this video really hit home. I've been feeling unmotivated which in turn mad me feel guilty that I haven't been working on more content. When I listened to your video I realized I'm suffering from burnout, but not from KZbin content crreation, but a job I just recently left with a company I had been with for 15 years. I'm now seeing that I need to solve my burnout problem first in order to increase my productivity. I appreciate the video!

[@JoshBurnsTech]

4:55 🔥💯

[@Beastt-ix8lg]

ive never planned on doing youtube or tried and i dont think i ever will but i love watching these informative videos idk why

[@ReallyChrisM]

Great video Fin! I've only been at this a few months but already I've tried to head some of these off - KZbin Studio and sub notification emails were deleted from my phone as soon as I hit 100 subs and I'm much happier. Creating is always much easier after taking some time *not* creating from what i've found. Heed this man's insightz

[@CheeseNguyeen]

Damn Finzar, thanks for the advice when I needed it the most, appreciate that Fin!

[@roromon1970]

I seriously love your content. If I ever start a youtube channel, my ultimate goal would be to aspire to create quality content as high as yours. Keep it up, we gotchu!!

[@TrollBloxYT]

thanks fin for this video
