Ahsante I’ve been watching your videos for years and your hard work and dedication is evident in everything you do! It’s beyond inspiring and girl I just starting creating KZbin videos and I already feel the amount of work it takes to really be successful so don’t be so hard on yourself! You’re doing the best you can and I’m proud of you for trying to go even harder. You’re awesome 👏🏽💜

[@AhsanteB]

💜 Thank you so much! I do tend to be hard on myself, haha. Appreciate the encouragement, as always! We're doing the best we can :)

[@AVISIONMUSICTV]

Please take care of yourself. This is not a race. Pace yourself. Take your time, your subscribers will be there when you drop new content. Doesn't have to be every day or every week. Live your life, relax, take it easy girl. One love.

[@AhsanteB]

Appreciate the encouragement :) Problem with me is that this is the main thing I want to be doing in my life for this year! Like I mentioned, weekly videos are more of a personal goal/ challenge for myself at this point than anything else. But I'm also finding a better rhythm as I was getting to at the end! Thank ya

[@AVISIONMUSICTV]

@@AhsanteB Well that ambition is definitely not a problem its a plus. You'll reach all your goals. Its ok to be ambitious, Just be gentle with yourself though. Your mental and emotional should always be priority over everything 🙏🏿

[@fruitfulrealestate7977]

Hi Ahsante! This video is a needed reality share! My issue was getting a month ahead, and then taking 6 weeks off... now I'm struggling to re-engage, and this video might be just the inspiration for that. Keep at it and remember your time line of this year 2022. Big things ahead!

[@AhsanteB]

Thank you for this encouragement! A mutual dose of inspiration :) Big things ahead!

[@MatJustChillin]

This my first time seeing your content I also upload vids so I totally feel your pain just don’t be too hard on yourself, get your beauty sleep, relax don’t be stressing yourself out and burning yourself out the most important part about your channel is you this vid was stressing me out seeing how much you be doing I was like dang “she need a hug” 🤗 your amazing, I don’t want this stuff taking a toll on your mind or body so just do the best you can with the time you have don’t overload yourself and burn out I’ve done that plenty times and you’re really strong by the way still working while you’re sick and stuff good luck with all you doing - mat

[@calidiva77remixed]

Great job! I been watching awhile. I just started my other you tube channel this week on credit card travel and your right it’s a balance. I also loved your Notion template it was money well spent.

[@AhsanteB]

Thank you! Yeah the balance is tricky - so glad you liked the Notion template!

[@yleah259]

It’s okay to be exhausted! I got your back!

[@AhsanteB]

Phew! Thanks for the encouragement :)

[@_infinitedomain]

You're so inspiring Ahsante! Thank you so much for all of the hard work you put into these videos.

[@AhsanteB]

Thank youuuu

[@gpkutimate1591]

Wholesome.

[@AhsanteB]

:)

[@curious493]

I am a homeschooling mom with 3 children trying to make KZbin videos. I don't stand a chance hahahahahah. I still do it anyway because even middle aged women need an outlet 🥰. You can do this. That Harvard video brought me here.

[@AhsanteB]

I admire your hustle! My lesson has been not to bite off more than I can chew and to pace myself. Thanks! And wishing you well in your KZbin journey as well

[@jeremygolez1866]

Early ganggg 🔥

[@AhsanteB]

Ayyyy!

[@MoneyCodez]

Such a dope channel. Subbed

[@AhsanteB]

Thank you!

[@artcreative.studio]

From my perspective this year, making videos is excruciating. I'm new to it, so the learning curve seems huge and the mistakes frequent. If it makes you feel any better, your videos are so awesome. 💐 I wish there was a way you could rapid-train an assistant for the video production and clean up, but not sure if that would save you more time or not. Thanks for sharing! 🙂

[@AhsanteB]

Thanks for the encouragement :) Yeah the learning curve at the beginning is REAL. Having an assistant or camera operator would be huge - I'm definitely seeing how having someone there while shooting would be helpful, and it's on my list of things to invest in once I'm able to do so. Glad you appreciated the vid!

[@CristinaAllegra]

It's maybe a random comment, but I love your aesthetic, like your style, how you dress and how you decorate and present your space. I would find a video about that very interesting, especially about your dressing style. How do you think about it, if you have any kind of system or structure at the time of choosing what to incorporate to your wardrobe and so on. I hope I'm not the only one :)

[@AhsanteB]

Thank you! I've been working on that this year. Interesting topic, thanks for the suggestion :)

Master video editor 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@AhsanteB]

Thank ya thank ya!

[@t.c.o.g.773]

I would love to have you shoot some videos for me I will travel 🧳 to wherever you are

[@BlinkPopShift]

How do you separate energy for client from energy for this channel from other energy? I am struggling with energy load.

[@AhsanteB]

That's a good question - I try to dedicate specific days to specific categories of work (Ahsante the Artist vs Clients vs Personal), I find that I'm not as good at switching between them during the day. That includes keeping meetings and emails for client work confined to certain days. I'm not perfect at it, but it helps me compartmentalize and focus my mental energy. And then the one thing I haven't compromised on in this process is # of hrs of sleep - when I stayed up late, I'd sleep in late. If I get short sleep for more than one odd night, then my energy is toast.

[@OddWomanOut_Pi81]

PHEW!!! Chile, REST! Lol!

[@UdoADHD]

Can you make a video on how you edit? How you make your intro? How you have that watermark?

[@Strafuzz]

There are plenty of tutorials on KZbin for video editing

[@AhsanteB]

Glad you like my style! It would be a little technical for me to do a walkthrough on this channel, but this is the kind of behind scenes content I'd consider putting on Patreon.

[@TGYtco]

All of your symptoms sound exactly like I felt when I had Covid. So weird that your test was negative!

[@AhsanteB]

Right!? I think I just was so late getting a test - I feel like it had to be COVID

[@riseup6112]

Paneer pizza is good and plus it has the veggies 🥕 on it how bad can it be ??

[@AhsanteB]

So so delicious

[@crisharris4414]

Nice work beautiful

[@AhsanteB]

Thank you!

[@auntruth7168]

Hey Ahsante,am Brad n am from a country called kenya n i came accross your video ,the one about your experience at Harvard n I've always wanted to go there,but sadly am so disadvantaged in that am black,am not that rich and am not even close to the USA ,do you think I stand a chance........ sorry by the way for replying in this video,I just thought it had a better chance of been seen by you.

[@AhsanteB]

Hello! I get this question a lot. I wouldn't be able to judge based on your comment, and as I mention in my FAQs, I'm not doing academic consulting right now. Take care!

[@auntruth7168]

It's kul
