What no one wants to tell you about YouTube

We’ve now officially left holiday season

Yes, this means that your Christmas tree should NOT still be up

While we’ve left behind the gift opening and pounds of turkey

One thing that’s remained are the seasonal songs

Yes, I do like to dabble in lofi music from time to time

Especially lofi music whose theme mirrors the time of the year

This is the track I’ve been listening to for the last few weeks

Now, when you start listening to lofi on YouTube, you begin to get flooded with recommendations of similar videos

One video that was recommended to me was the following:

At first, the weird frog catches your attention but then the statement takes over

“be patient, good things take time”

It’s a powerful statement, right?

But it’s also true

I can tell you that the most cherished things I have today did take time to obtain

From getting my CPA designation, to building YT channels and even dating and marrying my wife

Sadly, most people want things yesterday…

And it’s this lack of patience that stops them from ever getting where they want to be in life

They work at something for a week or a month

Don’t see instant results and quit

Claiming that the next business model is “better for them”

The reality?

All business models work, you just don’t work

You don’t work hard enough to make them work

Or don’t spend enough time figuring them out

This was me many years ago

I was a notoriously bad business model hopper

And guess what? I never made any money in the process

Then, I committed to YouTube and well

The rest is history…

Therefore, while you’re uploading videos, perfecting your packaging etc.

Also work on that patience muscle

It’s the most powerful tool in the toolkit that you need to be using daily

Especially if you have high aspirations on YouTube

Until tomorrow,

Adam
