You don't have to always create your own! Curating and sharing others content is a great way to connect with your audience, partner with others, and save some time from creating content from scratch! (Always credit others and link back!)

Don't think of things from your POV (content, product, company, $$$)
Just focus on empathy and helping your viewers/customers solve problems
@futch_ Hey Futch! This is great.
Can you give two conflicting examples here?

@leojbarnett It's October 24th, 2001. You're 19 and you don't know much but you know you love music. Your backpack is full of shattered CD cases and scratched CDs, most of them are even are in the wrong case. You're running across the intersection and the "Don't Walk" sign starts flashing red. Your CD walkman is skipping again during the chorus of your favorite song "Clint Eastwood" by Gorillaz. You see two store across the street with big signs in their windows. One says "The new Apple iPod" and the other says "1000 songs in your pocket".
You say to yourself "Wow 1000 songs in my pocket?" and you dash into the 2nd store. The salesman greets you at the door. "1000 songs" you say as you catch your breath. He hands you a small white box that says 'iPod" whatever that means. You pay and the counter and your whole life changes. You will always remember this day.
Lesson 1: Solve your customers problems
Lesson 2: Nobody cares about your product or company (sorry)
Lesson 3: People love stories with a positive character arc
@futch_ Love this Futch. Thank you!
I was fully transported and Clint Eastwood IS a favourite song.
Always start with the problem.
Brb... Gonna go find my iPod!

Just don't give up.
Set milestones and work towards reaching them. Don't quit until you reach the last one.
Stop only if you are 100% you tried everything and failed.

Invest in relationships online.
Don't just think of every conversation as a transaction. Genuinely help others and be a part of their journey.
They'll remember you and that bond goes a long way.

Don't focus on vanity metrics (views, subscribers), just keep making content that you enjoy + consistency and the rest should follow.
- Be your own cheerleader
- Show up every day (consistency)
- Focus on value and traction will come later

Be consistently trying new things until something shows real signs of life.
Then double down on it 100 times because you can milk one good piece of content many times, and it helps you grow a lot. Just mix in a few other things in between so it's not the same msg after itself every single time.
Most people who grow quickly write the simplest things (that aren't new, exciting, nor interesting) 100 times. Long as your format is good, your reading level is not too high, and the language is positive, it's got a shot!
Good luck!
