But wasn t consistent, have to admit, too much to do setting up the business. I love to make videos ...🎉

[@DogWoodsFlowerFarm]

@@FragranceCraft I have been posting almost daily, trying to improve 1 thing everytime. I have noticed that I don't enunciate some words, especially those with "ing" but that could just be a "Texas thing".

[@rickmalaschenko3046]

@DogWoodsFlowerFarm hello I'm Rick, 👋, to you & the fellow comments in here. Age does not matter, I've found being consistent is the key. I started about 13 months ago, and have 530 subs & about 270k views. I post everyday ,be it a shirt or a long, the shorts to stay visible & the longs for more personal insight. As to editing , thumbnails etc, I don't do it as I don't know 😕 how to. As to our Texan, and his 👋 voice , try speaking clearly , when you have a mouth full of loose teeth or in case non, my pronounceiation ,comes out mumbled at times. The hardest thing is the roller coaster of emotion , that comes with doing this. Good luck 👍 to us old bastards, just get your content out there, I've got Uzbekistan viewers, stuff like that blows me away. Cheers from Australia 🇦🇺 👍

I'm 63 when I started my channel early this year, now on its 7th month with 23k subs and have yet to be monetized but still hoping for the best, thank you for your inspiration Sean!

We just started our channel and at 42 subs, it’s been a massive learning curve!! Only person I am in competition with is myself!!! Thank you for reaffirming this!!!

[@elizabethbohan8727]

I have watched you since 2019. Your videos and your team member's videos have helped me greatly, and I'm so grateful. I appreciate your honesty and authenticity. So glad your marriage is still going and growing. I'm 66 and going on 31 years of marriage. God is so good. Keep going and run the race!❤

[@susandurry9079]

I’m a 64 year old grandma wanting to get started on RUclips. I have experience as an artist, art teacher, creative in general, that has been trying to figure out my niche. I’ve spent time setting up my art area, watching way too many videos, paid for VRA, and practiced my painting system. The main thing I haven’t done is ‘punch fear in the face, and push record!! 😅

[@Cashnomics2]

Just press the record button and begin. Imagine the benefits waiting for you to just start.

[@PowerPlusNature]

Do it, one day you will be glad to have the reference. It is fun. I love it, and the good thing is, imperfection is actually authenticity, and as time goes on we will see our growth. ;-)

[@rickmalaschenko3046]

Hello Susan, just get up in the morning , think of your art topic , for example , how much paint to squeeze out on a pallet or paint board or the colour order you lay them out in, point your phone at it , and make a comment. Use both platforms, shorts for a quick video and the longer video format to engage with your followers who want more. I've just subscribed , I'm your #2 fan.❤. Good luck 😅😅

[@aayanisms]

As a solo slow-burn podcaster (BasTalk, Aayanisms) stuck in the middle of people with low attention spans and quick bites, I do long-form podcasts. With no get-rich-quick tips, no instant gratification or any fancy edits - I stick to what I feel lies beneath the facade of most work & life situations..It's counter-intuitive say most people I meet. They want 30-second clips, and I say I do 40-minute audio-mostly. They politely walk away. And that's okay with me.
This talk made me think huh-Im not the only crazy one out there.200 episodes and 4 seasons later I continue ignoring algorithms and embracing what I want to do my way, and along the way if I do find a tribe that'd be great, if not, I keep walking.
Thanks for sharing your passionate presentation.

[@ScaryToRemarry]

Man, Sean ALWAYS inspires me to not give up on RUclips! I love the transparency!! Dude is the truth

[@AndrewButlerSignwriter]

Every time I feel that I'm wasting my time I am going to re-watch this video 🙂

[@JLAReacts]

Biggest resonance with me is when he talks about imposter syndrome. For real this video is a huge help.

[@adamthefirstman1127]

To Sean! I’ve been listening to your stuff for years. I even bought the book. In the past 6 months I’ve finally “punched fear in the face” and pressed record. Another quote I love is by Myron Golden…..”if your going to do the thing anyway, TURN THE CAMERA ON!” So that’s what I’ve done. A little over half way to 1k subs, but going to keep grinding and finding my voice/tribe. Thanks for the vulnerability and transparency about the struggles. It makes you relatable and I can definitely relate! Keep up the good work. I’m praying to grow to the place where I can have the time freedom to attend some in person YT conferences. Many blessings to you brother, Adam “the first man”.

[@artbygenuinelove]

I just recently started, and the phrase 'our biggest competition is ourselves' resonates deeply with me. I appreciate all the support and encouragement.

[@Kieran_Dodds]

All the talk of adding value can leave me cold and cynical when they only talk about financials. This talk reveals the humanity behind it all. Creativity adds value for human flourishing and it requires structures. Like an art gallery needs walls. A helpful message in the pursuit of excellence. Thanks Sean.

[@SisiYemmieTV]

I feel reinvigorated after watching this . Sean is so funny! 😅😅😅 I have 63k plus unread emails.

[@AnneMilar]

I’ve been wanting to start making videos since I started using YT and finally, after years of procrastinating, I finally did it! You are one of the creators who pushed me to do it! This talk made me feel inspired to be more creative and work harder - my videos are still messy but hey I’m constantly learning along the way and your videos help a lot
Thank you for sharing this talk with us!

[@BobMinelli]

I literally just got started on my brand new channel for my brand designs WORK HARD PLAY HARD. And I am starting with zero idea of how it's going to evolve but I'm starting from someplace, rather than not starting at all. Not sure how I'm going to get from where I am to 1000 subscribers if ever but there's got to be a way for me to make this work for what I'm trying to do. I just want to stay real be me at the same time convey a message of sorts so people will get value and enjoy what it is I am sharing. That's my biggest uphill battle and it's always has been. Fingers crossed wish me luck.

[@Rags2Riches762]

I could just tell you were a believer sir before you said that you worked for your church. Everything about your presentation says "preaching" and the passion is contagious! I thank God for you!!

[@ChomiC33]

It's always a good time to do everything!

[@chrisaguilera1564]

I think a lot of people say to themselves they can't do it and come up with just endless excuses.........like I have. RUclips is the number one platform I use every single day. I learn, grow, be entertained and expand myself emotionally. I have 24 subscribers with just four videos and my comments. I have so much to say but I can never decide how to say it. I know what to do but I always feel I'm not ready, I have to learn more. This continuous loop that's preventing from growing.

[@kennethlucious1]

Thanks for all you do bro… the sacrifices you and your family make to make this world a better place by video encouragement is timeless!

[@visionsofhistorytelevision]

I am loving the journey on RUclips so far.

So thankful for this channel! Not only does it provide valuable tips, but the motivation to stay focused and keep going 🎉 I love to listen to while grinding away to achieve dreams! 🙌🏼 thanks for all you and your team do!!

[@chicagotalkshowhost]

Absolutely brilliant Sean and Think Media team. This totally rewired my way of thinking and looking at RUclips at this point in time.
And of course people want authenticity because we're living in a world filled with things that are not real, fake, illusion at best and surrounded by lies at worst.
...I'm about to get spiritual too but listen real quick:
I think people crave what is real from real people because they know tech and AI is soulless; is it even possible to truly connect with something that does not have a soul?
Modern man is starving for what's real, what is natural, what is beautiful and what is true because deep down----modern man, dehydrated and exhausted from the secular, is starving for God.

[@payotimeRamsYT]

I am so thankful for my YT journey. I have experienced slow growth over the past three years. I appreciate the encouragement and insight that Sean and the Think team provide! Got to go make a video haha 😂

[@CompassAndQuill]

Hearing how faithful you are is amazing. I'm from south Africa in Prophet Leon Du Preez's Church. Encounter Church. If you ever find yourself in Johannesburg on a Sunday then do yourself a favor and come to church, Ps Mike Signorelli knows our prophet and he's even been to preach in Ps Mike's church in New York.

[@RobtheMaritimer]

I listened to this podcast on my morning run this morning and loved it!! Thank you!!

That exercise in overwhelm due to digital distress was an excellent representation on the subject, a fun and enlightening way to get a serious message across. Well done! 😂👏👏👏

[@MediaMentoring]

Thank you for helping me see even more clearly that I am my problem - I knew it already but you put real words to it too.

[@crazycooley50]

Wow wow wow Sean….the courage to be real and vulnerable is the reason you are successful … I love that you are speaking of the side of success that most won’t talk about. What I love about you and think media is that you keep to your values and integrity. This is a hard and lonely road with peaks and valleys. The emotional roller coaster it takes you on can be crazy. It’s almost as if it’s a spiritual journey and you learn so much about yourself… your character, and do you have the fight of a warrior to keep going. Are you built for this… real talks one must have. Anyone can be successful if you look at this journey in a decade or decades. Like you said … it’s a lifestyle …Thanks for what you do for all of us.. your Student…

Hey Sean! How about creating a video about the DO’S and DONT’S when scammers contact RUclips Creators offering them a partnership collaboration? Or the PRO’s and CON’s spending tens of thousands of dollars on promoting videos through RUclips ad promotions when NONE OF THE VIEWS count toward total watch hours needed for monetization…. these 2 topics should be covered with everyone here. thanks for the consideration.

Sean, how do I tell people the true about dogs if they just want obedience instead of making dogs really happy?
People hate the truth when there's a lot of work involved

[@Mettlehead]

Also HELL YEAH on the repair and rebuild and reinforcement of your marriage. It's so hard sometimes. Counseling is so helpful. But also, it really does boil down to some core things that are non negotiables. One of them is that deep friendship that is the foundation by which partners can look at broken trust and see if it has any chance of being repaired. May take a while. Even years depending. But if the hurt isn't deeper than the friendship sometimes that's possible. ❤

[@Keiffy75Games]

Keep moving Forward, NEVER GIVE UP!!! Your next video could be the one, Be CONSISTANT, and just be you, i started my journey almost 4 years now, almost at 4k subs, its a lot of work, but its what i like to do, i enjoy every minute of it! 🤜💥🤛

[@samrusyoga]

So good thank you!! Right now I’m struggling with feeling like I have what it takes & if I’m going in the right direction. I don’t love video editing & I’m not good at it lol. I want to promote yoga but I struggle with imposter syndrome since my life right now is actually focused around my sales job. I fear putting myself into a box. I suck at speaking to the camera and feeling authentic when I press record. I question if my content is actually helping anyone. The content suggesting my videos are porn yoga girls which is demotivating. I guess I had more struggles than I thought lol.

[@Mettlehead]

was at config recently and a lot of the sessions I chose were talking about how AI can't have humor as i doesn't have CONTEXT. Also, a lot of software (indie) are trying to make software that help people have a better human experience without screens. It was a hopeful experience because I always at first assume tech is because we thiink humans are deficient but there are some, including myself, who wish to give humans the chance to live richly in EXPERIENCE, and sometimes tech can help with that (accessibility etc.) (age of info vs. age of intelligence etc.)
