Next steps for YT channel & motivation

My Secret Notebook
1 min readMar 11, 2021

I’ve been kind of unmotivated because:

  1. I’ve been spending too much time on Clubhouse meandering and falling into a “clout chase” mentality as well as trying to connect/explore.

And I just haven’t been able to want to edit videos and record more. Nor do photoshoots. What has happened? I’m just tired and binging shows ugh.

But I want to be productive, push hard, and accomplish my goal of a consistent board game channel machine!

I also want to just let myself be me too. It’s hard to balance.

Steps going forward:

  1. Hunker down and re-record VOs tomorrow
  2. Edit by the end of this week?

^These are my main roadblocks. And truth be told, if I can’t sustain motivation this early, it’s hard to really say if it can work out.

I need to reduce the work I personally have to put in. For my gay channel, I only have to write scripts, and even then, I make them 1.5 pages, which is relatively harmless. And I have to finish it in one sitting.

I think for recording, I need to do the same: make the game(s) in 1 sitting. Explain it all in one sitting. Then do photoshoots and ship out to the editor.
