I need help with my future...
In a nutshell... I'm 17, 3rd year of an IT Highschool, I tried: - sales... failed - copywriting... no results - content creation... gave up too early after taking a a break from all the hustles for more than half a year, I decided to go back to YouTube... but an idea showed up to me. One of the guys in the Programming part of the IT high school (in which I go to as well) is good at coding... how? well, asked him and he said it's partially because he makes money making mods for games, yk like Minecraft mods and etc. So, I was thinking.. what if I do the same thing... I'm not good in C# or Java like him, but I am good in HTML. Not saying I can't learn C# or Java, because learning those to programming languages would help me with the subjects in school I also need help with. Now my question is: - Do I go on and chase my dream of becoming a self improvement YouTuber? or - Do I learn more coding + earn some money that way? - I'm doubting whether to choose the 2nd option since I don't know if it's the shiny object syndrome pulling me away from YouTube which I just started to get back into (scripted a video already to record this weekend) or is it a good idea to learn more coding, not only for my subjects which I need help with, but also to get some experience and some extra cash, but keep YouTube as a yapping platform? I need help to choose what to chase, academic success (school and coding, little YouTube) or YouTube success (Focus mainly on school, and the rest of my time and energy goes into YouTube; editing, scripting recording, research, etc.) What do you think?
