Hoping this helps someone, it's not easy, keep going.

Looking for someone who's good a creating YouTube Thumbnails that's reasonably priced. Anyone have anybody they can refer?

I feel great right now, just finished my YouTube video. But, last night and earlier today I felt quite anxious. I've always been a bit anxious before I record, though the reason why has changed overtime. That resistance whatever it is, is still something you need to push through (if you want a personal brand). In the beginning it was about my looks, how I talked, my background, cameras, lighting etc. Now it's because a lot of people see my videos and I want them to be very good. I want to help people. But either way I'm anxious, but I've learned to live with it. I must deal with it, if I want to full-fill my mission and vision. Which is to help build a world where everyone has the tools and resource to reach their maximum potential. Mission and vision does everything for me, it pushed me past any selfish insecurity or anxious feeling that keeps me from helping my tribe. At each step of your content creation journey you'll hit resistance, tap into something bigger that gives you no choice but to overcome. A little anxiety is nothing compared the feeling of letting your people DOWN. Anxiety < Guilt

What's up yall! This is super cool, check this out. 👇 I'm kind of obsessed with making content creation as fast an easy as possible. We want to work smarter...NOT HARDER. 🧠 One of the ways I do this is by starting with a core long-form content. This could be a podcast, youtube video, livestream training, newsletter, etc. Then take that piece of content and repurpose it into a bunch of different pieces of content. One area of content I want to ramp up specifically is my short-form video game. 🎥 So guess what I did. I created a tool for our members to help them turn 1 long-form piece of content and turn it into 5, 10, even 20 short-form video scripts, to help get more reach and grow their audience faster. 👀Check it out and let me know what you think. Let me know if you got some cool prompts. I can show you a tool to help you gate them:)

When it comes to creating content for your business, there are four main strategies that you can adopt. Each has its pros and cons, and it’s important to recognize where you currently stand so you can make adjustments and get the best results. Let’s dive into these four strategies. 1. The "Viral Hacking" Strategy This strategy focuses on algorithms, hooks, and constant tweaking. It’s all about watching the stats—views, watch time, engagement—and obsessing over how to improve them. Viral hackers are always rearranging and republishing content to optimize for maximum reach. This method is highly effective, but it’s time-consuming and requires a lot of in-the-moment analysis. If you have the time or the resources to hire someone skilled in this area, you can see big results. However, for most businesses, it’s not realistic to dive that deep into content analytics every day. 2. The "Good Content" Strategy This is where you should be putting most of your energy. It’s about sitting down, planning, and consistently creating the best content you can in your industry. You’re aware of things like hooks and watch time, but your primary focus is on quality. This strategy tends to be underutilized, but it’s the one that will likely set you apart in the long term. By continually refining your craft, you’ll position yourself as a leader in your niche. 3. The "Check the Box" Strategy In this strategy, you’re creating content just because you know you should be. Maybe you’re outsourcing it to an agency, using AI to rewrite existing content, or having a ghostwriter take over. You’re getting content out, but it’s not likely to make a major impact. While this approach might help you stay consistent, consistency alone isn’t the magic formula for success. If you find yourself in this mode, remember that putting in just enough effort to “check the box” is not a long-term plan for growth. 4. The “I’ll Do It Next Week” Strategy We all know this one. You recognize the importance of content, but you keep putting it off. “I’ll do it next week” becomes a recurring thought, but it never gets done. This strategy will keep you stuck. At some point, you have to commit to doing the work or it simply won’t happen.
