The idea of finding an actual purpose for making videos (or other types of content) is arguably something that tends to get overshadowed by the goal of becoming "successful" and gaining a ton of followers for no particular reason other than that goal itself. I've heard on several occasions that a large portion of young people have dreams of becoming KZfaqrs, but it always seems to come down to a dream of being famous without there really being much thought about what they want to be famous for, or what they actually want to accomplish when they gain a following. And I think social media as a whole is designed that way. On this platform, it's even in the name.

I think for most people in their late 20's like me we would like to have an income to cover basic bills, I just started my channel and I am hoping to improve the more I post, otherwise you are right. My hope is to entertain over time once I get over the nerves of posting videos, besides that I include a bit of useful information at the beginning of the videos.

Funny, when I was young youngsters wanted to be famous sportsmen, actors, musicians, models, dancers, etc. Hadn't thought that, in this day and age, youngsters want to be social-media stars. Same story, just more accessible; same motivation, but the bar is lower. Thanks for that insight.

Thank you so much for this video, Izzy! I've been following you for a year, and your productivity videos have truly changed my life. They've taught me how to stick to good habits, even if I can only practice them for a shorter time than I'd like. I love your voice, accent, and the valuable insights you always share in your professionally made videos. Your positive attitude towards life and work is incredibly inspiring. I'm so grateful for you and your KZfaq channel. You're changing lives and inspiring thousands of people, including me. Over ten years ago, I wanted to start a KZfaq channel to teach English, but I never had the courage. As the years went by and more creators popped up, I felt my content could never measure up and gave up on the idea. But your video might be the push I needed to finally get started! Thank you, Izzy, for the love, positive energy, and inspiration you send out into the world. Wishing you continued success in your channel and career, and sending you love and gratitude. 🥰

I think 50% staffs and students from ptya are medical students from top universities in the world like Cambridge🙃.It's such a strange thing when more and more people are leaving their jobs to shift to KZfaqrs. It shows potential opportunities in building personal branding via social media platforms like KZfaq, Instagram, etc., can change people's lives compared to doing one job back then. Anyway, you look so stunning Izzy as always and I can see video editing has improved with more animation. I hope you can do some more vlog videos like travel in UK or life around you. Your video really helped me and many people have a smart and healthy life. Wish you all the best Izzy!

ask yourself this: what's your big-picture purpose for starting your YT channel? what's your vision? Then tie that back into a key KPI / metric that is closely related to said vision to measure your progress. if you do this properly, you'll find that your YT channel is just an extension of your entire life. Vision for life is closely related to vision for YT channel.

I don't know if this has been commented already, but another way to monetize your channel is with the first tier (500 subs and 3k watch hours). That's "monetizing your audience" because that's the super chat, thanks, etc. Thank you for your insights! You saying I will do something with KZfaq depending on how my energy feels, really resonated with me. I'm currently struggling with my energy period (Thank you Long-COVID), so finding energy for KZfaq besides my normal job has been hard the last year. Hopefully it will get better, but I will keep your idea most certainly in mind!

If I would have to start again on YT, I just wouldn't waste months to get recognized by couple hundred people. When I discovered I could trigger organic growth after getting first 1000 subscribers, my life got a lot easier and my main channel exploded. People are just looking at your numbers when searching for some content. If you have low subs no one cares about you, even if you have the best content on platform.

@emergingloki 3 ай бұрын

Just in case you missed basic math, you have to get past a few hundred to get to your magic 1000 sub mark. Getting there depends entirely on quality, perseverance, popular content, and luck. You can control the first two, sort-of the third, but not the fourth. The exact time frame is out of your hands. Anybody who say otherwise is just a BS merchant.
