If you are trying to make money from YouTube, do not start by building a big course. That is backwards. A channel does not need a huge product first. It needs a small next step that matches the problem your videos already attract. A better setup looks like this: 1. Pick one problem your channel talks about over and over 2. Turn that into one simple digital product people can use fast 3. Make 5 to 10 videos that attack that same problem from different angles 4. Mention the same product every time Most people are trying to create more content and more offers at the same time. That is why nothing connects. One channel. One problem. One product. Repeat. That is how YouTube starts acting less like a hobby and more like a system. If you want, comment PLAN and I will show you the version I would build first.

And no, this wasn’t hyperbole. Sunday, I went for a walk with my oldest son. We were 2 miles into our 4 mile walk. Ironically enough, the paid started while we were outside of a hospital. If he wasn’t with me, I might have pressed on. Anyway, we had started the turn towards home and my chest felt tight. My left are started to hurt. I felt a weirdness I’d never felt before. Every step got worse. Before the walk I told my son we werne’t going to call Shannon if he was tired. I was determined to get my 10,000 steps for Sunday. With every step I weighted the thought of keep going to calling for help. I saw two ambulances drive by. I thought to myself, this is a sign to call. We kep walking about 500 steps. Finally, we made it to a bus stop and I asked my son if we could take a break. I immediately thought of my dad and when I told him to see a Cubs vs Sox game and he had to stop frequently to take breaks. I thought to myself this isn’t me and I said let’s go We made it another 200 feet before I thought I should make the call. Lucky, Shannon was able to tick us up with 5 minutes. Those minutes felt like hours. Once back home, I took my customary Sunday afternoon nap. I woke up and felt “fine.” My chest wasn’t huring but my arm felt weird. Little by little, I started feeling back to normal. Shannon decided that we should book a appointment with the doctor just in case. I chalked it up to having spicy chicken and waffles for breakfast. Sheck suggested we go to the doctor just to make sure The appointment was scheduled for Tuesday at 9:45 am The doctor runs an EKG test and everything comes back normal. The doctor tells me to go have bllod drawn for other heart reaalted tests About 1 hour later, Shannon calls and says GO TO THE ER NOW I go to the ER and learn I had a heart attack. At 39 The only thing I could think about was how I let me family down. The only thing I could thing about was my dad having a triple bypass surgery at about the same age.
