Hi, I'm Robin.
I'm 16 and I've been on self-improvement for about 2 years now. I learned a lot in those 2 years. I learned how to read, I learned how to get successful and how to NOT become successful. I learned about all the good habits and implemented some in my daily life as well.
I've been working out for a little more than over a year at this point and I now have a decent physique that I'm proud off. Everyday, I look in the mirror with gratefulness for my younger self hitting all those work-outs so that I can now stare at myself in the mirror with a big smile and big biceps:)
I've been watching Hamza religiously for about 2 years now (he was the start of my self-improvement journey and I already found him when I was 14). He has talked about how smart it is to become a youtuber and build an audience of superfans who actually like you. Therefore, I decide that I WANTED to start a youtube channel. After a few months of being scared of judgement, I finally took the leap of faith and decided to post my first ever video. I fucking sucked. So horrible that I couldn't even bring myself to put it online and I just kept it as private.
After recording maybe a hundred videos of me yapping in the camera, I felt confident enough to post one on my channel forreal. I fucking sucked again. But me posting that video changed it all for me.
I anxiously waited thinking my friends would find the video and make fun of my for it.
But that of course didn't happen.
With that in mind, I realised I can post whatever I want and whatever I think is right without fearing judgement. Of course, there are people online telling me my videos suck on all that stuff but I don't care about them.
I was finally free from the constraint that was holding me back from posting and I decide to go all in on YouTube. I improved my speaking skills, spend hours a day editing and doing "research" on how to grow on youtube.
Eventually, I bought adonis school (with the help of some random indian from reddit since I didn't had a credit card lol) and I watched all of hamza's youtube courses).
That's when he explained that you should even worry about editing and all the extra bullshit. Your only focus, as a beginner youtuber (less than 100 subs), should just be recording videos and posting them.
Don't try to make it look all fancy, no fancy edits or thumbnails.
Just think of a topic, briefly think about stories to tell and subtopics to cover, hit record, freestyle some in front of the camera, think of a good title (5 min max) and than post it.
Don't look at the views, comments, likes and all that stuff.
Just leave it at that and than later post another one.
I call this method "post-and-ghost" (by Alex Hormozi?).
I just that of what I could speak about, record it and post it.
Lately, I've been looking into business and selling stuff. But for that, I need an audience to sell to.
So fast forward to today I'm still posting videos and still trying to grow an audience of people who like me and my interests.
Good luck to you if you're also trying to make it big in live and I wish you all the best:)
