Hey #earlygang! Genuinely, do you have tips to help people find confidence, motivation, and keep improving? What are your running shorts? Have a happy holidays!

My running shorts are buried in a drawer somewhere... I should really sort that out 😂. Nice to have a reminder about the things you mentioned here as well, speaking of Mr Beast I think he once said something along the lines of "your first 100 videos will suck, talk to me at the 101st". If I'm in a position to give anyone a tip it would be that even one step in the right direction is progress, so as long as you're improving one thing about your content every video/every week, you're heading in the right direction :)

Video, shorts and live streaming! I do them all! Daily content for past month and I've noticed substantial growth in watch time and views. Thanx for the tip, btw.

Just had my first stream with over 10 people watching I was so stoked - keep going everyone !!!! Rooting for you all

Who here watches all these vids but streams to finish games. Streaming has helped me finish so many games that I probably would have never finished cause new shiny new games are constantly coming out

Instructions unclear, I do not have running shorts.

My problem is personal, mostly my anxiety gets the better of me, but once I overcome it I generally have a decent time streaming. Even if I'm not very entertaining to watch/listen to I still try to make the most of it because I stream so infrequently. (Will watch the video later, busy with work right now)

Keep streaming! You got this.

Just made Twitch affiliate earlier this week I'm super psyched at what the future holds.

Went down the rabbit hole and watched Mr. Beast's oldest stuff and was really encouranged. Highly recommend taking time to look at the oldest stuff from 'the big guys'

I don't have much to say except thank you for the video. It genuinely did help a lot more than you may have realised. Congratulations of your new daughter, she has amazing parents to guide her!

hello, I started using Q2U as per your recommendation but I want to ask you how to make the voice loud and clear ( this is not just with Q2U I've been getting this problem with many mics )... it's like whenever I try to make it louder it becomes kinda blurry and if I lower it it becomes clear but low voice so idk where is the sweet spot for it

Started a podcast with my friend 2 years ago and just constantly keep pumping out content and I think it's only getting better but eventually we will get recognized. Also just started streaming there thanks for the advice

Good stuff as always Eljay! In my case I'm thinking of stopping due to people not watching me AND being stressed out about streaming (on twitch in my case) Have a good day!

People not watching is a symptom remember, it’s not the problem. You need to treat the actual problem, usually it’s discovery or content not being good enough. Solve that and people will watch. Good luck!

I really needed this video I am trying to grow my KZread since twitch is shutting down in korea and I'm going through the same struggle as when I started on twitch. Thank you

I've literally put so much thought into my streams to make them meaningful (I use my channel for charity and GFMs for those in need). My issue is that I use Twitch for DJing which is already HEAVILY oversaturated. The most watchers I've ever had on a stream is 8, but I refuse to let that get me down. I feel like I'm very good at what I do so I'm just going to continue to stream to the same 1 or 2 faithful watchers and just hope for the best. Great vid as always Eljay!

i feel like i'd look at it as a positive you got 8 people who could be doing anything else with their time but they chose you to watch. Think about that :j

This is the wildest video you’ve ever made, either way solid advice as always (even if I’ve heard you tell these again)

Yeah. I kinda feel like I'm burning out. I'm going to step away and take some post production classes. However, the 30 minute commitment a day is perfect and that first intro segment of other youtubers was kind of touching.

Ive been watching these vids and while ive seen a bunch of similar material. I loved you showing big streamers/tubers being scuffed. Cause it really felt like some of the videos i made

Hi, Bro! I wanna share quickly my experience cause it may be useful for someone or maybe another video thou. ^^ I work a hell lot and make niched gaming videos as a hobby. Which goes nicely! 1-2 videos a week when I have more free time, 1 or 0 depending on the same rs BUT, when I started streaming (I did on KZread) to have more contact with my community it was not as easy as I thought. Making videos take muuuuuuuch more time! However, I can split It on some days and that helps! But streaming has 1 big problem that made me quit in 1 week: It hurts the brain! It consumes too much attention to the chat! I record and edit videos to release stress, but streaming doesnt work the same way, it's the opposite! It feels like tough thinking! So it's Crazy hard to do It at night, after a long day 😅😢 My viewers were awesome, nice and extremely recepting. It was really fun! But due to It being so tiring for the mind/brain, I can't keep It. Making videos do better for me so far 😂💜 Hope It can reach someone and shed some light. Have fun, guys! 👊🏾

Question about the music is it copyright-free/royalty-free?

The "tongue resting on your teeth" thing resonated with me more than it should have

I mean the spotlight effect is real but I really think it’s mainly lack of engagement but you have given great ways to help get engagement! ❤ much love to you😊

I switch over to KZread last year and although grow is slow due to not being able to get raids from others I have found that I'm building on my own, on Twitch I felt that I was riding on the backs of others. Yes its a grind and youtube have not really updated things to help streamers but theres hope I guess.

This is a masterclass in motivation. I wish I could pin this video above my desk. Seriously.

How many takes did it take for the fast-paced monolog at 9:51?, kudos if on the first one, that was awesome, if not on the first, also kudos, I would have choked

You’re likely not making them to appeal to the format properly, go watch my video about how I blew up a channel with shorts. I got 30 million views and 41K subs with them.

my thought process is "none of this is real.. we're living in the matrix"

Oh yea like a week ago i followed your video about about how to title your streams and instantly seen an increase in engagement lol

Hey i love ur vids. I have streamed for 2 years next january and i still haven't quit even if i still have streams with 0 viewers. I haven't quited yet bc i love streaming. I have tried making yt vids but after about 3h of editing i usually quit it bc i think that this is shit and it doesn't work

My problem was anxiety Because when i would steam i would see that there was one person on the steam and there would be nothing in the chat and i was also afraid that i wasn't entertaining or funny it got to the point that i had a dream about it and i almost never dream

I genuinely need help... I feel really awkward when streaming and I stop before the time that I want to.

My running shorts are literally just recording 1 voice line, if I record 1 voice line, the rest is gonna be done right then and there, motivation isn't only the cause of action, but the result of it :)

Congrats on the daughter 😊

I’ve only been streaming a week now, starting to get the hang of it I think but just need to chat wi to people :(

That last segment is so true

As someone who started making videos and streaming a month ago. My advice would be, dont be checking your phone every minute to see how many views you got or if anyone left a comment with some feedback. (i am guilty of it) 😅 It will drive you nuts eventually. Better do it once a day.

I was on a great upward growth trend and i took a two month break bc of personal stuff etc and im so discouraged to restart. I lost a few followers and it feels insurmountable :(

That’s why you should focus on KZread :) I took a 3 month break from streaming due to COVID and came back to double viewership because KZread kept bringing in viewers and was easy to do while sick

I am probably going to stop streaming cause my schedule is so busy. I don't expect to become big and I kind of did it for a bit of enjoyment and I would like to keep streaming I'm am just too busy.

I’ll never quit streaming or content creation. Started this year and I’m enjoying what I do whether 1 person, 10, or 30+ are watching. It’s given me a sense of purpose in a way. I genuinely enjoy talking to random people that pop in my chat and seeing that people are enjoying my content. Love from The Ogre’s Lair ❤

I'm here to reiterate how much tea sucks. Over here in America we threw it into the Boston harbor for a reason. Also freedom. 🇺🇸

well my reason for quiting streaming is my computer breaks down after turning on for 2 minutes

Amount of videos posted doesn’t equal growth, you could upload thousands of terrible videos. The difference between MrBeast and his hundreds of awful videos, is he spent time doing research and testing to improve. I’d say you need to spend more time making high quality clickable videos rather than sheer number.

The tip about doing something everyday is perfect. Building a habit that eventually turns into (healthy) addiction is what builds the most momentum. I stream every single day, it's been weird the few days where I couldn't.

@StreamScheme

I couldn’t imagine streaming daily, I feel like it goes against the first tip of using small controllable goals to grow. Most growth comes from TikTok, shorts, and videos so I would rather devote my daily time to those so my streams grow faster and become a reward or way to interact with viewers rather than a habit

@@StreamScheme I'm probably staying away from shorts, which seems to go against YT convention but I don't mind slower growth with a smaller community to start out. To me, every stream feels rewarding and feedback is always good, so the formula will probably work itself out in time. I suppose one reason to go with shorts might be to get the subscriber count to partner with YT, since I have well over the required watch hours.

@StreamScheme

Shorts just bring in viewers while you’re asleep and river, that’s all, it’s not some quick growth hack, it’s the same as long form videos. Streams lack discovery without videos and shorts, but if you have external content your streams and following grow while offline.

i stream for 1 year with 1 view i dont care lol doesnt matter shit xd

That's why you quit and just make how to videos.
