insert “you have the mind of a mastermind” meme here 🤯 this is 100% one of the most interesting videos i’ve ever watched on youtube! i love behind the scenes & have always wondered how you do the green screen scenes and seeing the process was so fascinating!! infinite amounts of appreciation for how much effort & planning you put into your videos 💛💛💛
You’re definitely 100% one of the most creative people I’ve ever known on the internet and honestly balance really is such a hard thing to find and its always fluctuating too. But thank you for this video!! Watching a Gavin video or joining your livestreams genuinely take me out of any rut. Thank you for sharing everything you do in your week and for all your efforts and care that go into your videos! (ALSO now I’m more than halfway through the video and you’re perfect and beautiful and your voice is great. Period)
I don't understand the rationale behind nasty comments, but since it does get to you, I'll just leave an honest and supportive comment... I don't agree with any of those negative comments. You are extremely charming, witty, charismatic, handsome, well spoken, and you never fail to capture my full attention - which is why I've been subscribing since you lived at home. Any mother would be proud to have you as her son! ❤
This was so interesting to watch, I love seeing a snapshot of how your week goes because I know you put SO MUCH work and effort into your videos and you are so creative, it blows my mind. We love you so much! Side note: I find your voice SO soothing, I will listen to your videos if I'm having a hard time going to sleep and it helps, so those comments are full of shite.
I didn't realise how much actually goes into a RUclips channel! What you do is amazing, and you should be so proud! Don't listen to the haters , screw them !!! ❤
You come across as such a genuine person. I'm a language teacher and I'm often knackered from explaining grammar rules for different languages all week long. It's good to wind down while watching your videos in the evening or to procrastinate doing exam corrections.😂😇 Your videos put a huge smile on my face and your funny bits crack me up. Your voice is relaxing and clear and your talent for making videos is awesome and I admire your creativity. I love my job and it's so great that you can make a living with something you're passionate about. I should add that I love reading as well and whenever I have spare time I pick up my book. Keep it up and rock on!!!👍
When I’m talking to my partner about a book and say “Gav has it, Gav said this, Gav is planning on reading it” he knows exactly who I mean. He even watches the ones when you stay at scary places with me 😂 it’s safe to say, you’ve become part of peoples lives. Good luck to you! ❤ xx
the clips of you filming yourself (and refilming the parts where you talked) are so real. thanks for not editing too much of the awkwardness out. idk if I'll ever "get used" to talking to a camera.. it just gets less awkward feeling but more exhausting lol
your desperate housewives intro was amazing. i literally just started watching the series for the first time and i got a real kick out of it. loved seeing another creator's process! i looove organization videos in general so this was of particular interest. i use notion for all my video planning but your doc was cool to be able to see everything in one place.
as someone who has wanted to get into content creating and has just started getting into it. i thoroughly appreciate this video. I've always been intimidated to make content or do videos but this was in a way comforting. thank you for making this. ive never seen anyone be this thorough and detailed about this which made it even that much more wonderful. love you Gavin
Gavin thank you so much for giving us an inside look at what you do. I am totally blown away by the amount of time, thought and planning that goes into making videos! I guess I shouldn’t be surprised because your content is amazing. Thank you too for showing us that beautiful coffee shop. I can just imagine sitting down for a cup of coffee and a chat with you. Thank you again for all your hard work and for just being such an amazing person ❤
This was really insightful into the video making process! Thanks for sharing 🙂 I don't know how anyone can criticize your voice. I came across your channel only a few months ago, and one of the first things I noticed is what a nice voice you have! 💙
Gav, I absolutely loved this. I love the detail you went into. And the Q&A at the end, the whole "do what makes you happy, life is too short" speech, chefs kiss. I felt that in my soul. Loved everything about this. Thank you for sharing with us ❤️✨
Congrats Gavin on being able to make your youtube channel your full time job! So few people are able to do this, this is such a huge achievement. I hope you feel really proud of yourself. So amazing to see someone from our crappy town and school able to achieve their dreams ❤
I love the message to do what you love and live in the moment, I need to take that advice and run with it! I’ve been blogging part time as a hobby for years and would love to take the leap; you’ve inspired me! Great video Gav I hope you will be making videos for a long time to come we all love you!❤️
I've loved watching this and learning more on what you do. It's a whole other level of appreciation. Regarding your voice, it's one of the reasons I have been binging so many videos lately. It's a lovely voice and calming to listen to as you chat away. I'm glad you don't let anyone change you
Ahhh I love seeing the behind the scenes of being a content creator, it’s so fun to see how other creators work and have a routine or no routine at all. I really related to what you said about how it’s hard to take a break and how you can never really shut off your work brain with a job like this, I 100% agree and I’m also still trying to find the work/life balance! But RUclips is such a fun job and I don’t take it for granted at all! It so nice to have friends who are doing the same thing who can relate 🥹💞
I also relate with the sleeping schedule bit haha, I think that’s the joy of working this job with not necessarily needing to work between 9-5, most of the time I’m up super late editing and working late into the night! I don’t think I’ve gone to sleep before 1am since I started doing RUclips full time but I prefer it that way! I’m definitely a night owl and I hate the mornings haha 😅
First time commenter, loyal viewer. I just wanted to let you know that your voice is one of the most soothing things i listen to and always puts a smile on me and my daughters face. I appreciate your message about negative comments and all the hardwork you put into your content. You broke this all down so well. You always make us laugh and smile. Thank you for being you. ❤
@HowToTrainYourGavin Hey Gavin! I'm a graphic designer and often use Adobe products, so I know a ton of shortcuts. Don't stress about your process it's your own and it leads to your amazing videos. I do have a tip for how to make straight lines though that will greatly help. When you are using the eraser tool click where you want the straight line cut to start hold "shift" and click where you want it to end. It should cut a straight line from point A to point B. Hope this helps!
Gavin, next time if someone tells you something awful about your voice, tell them to go piss themselves. I have sleeping issues and I always love to watch and sometimes listen to your videos as podcast. Yesterday while watching/listening to this, I legit slept while listening to your voice. It was MAGIC!!!! so please don't worry about your looks as you are dashing as ever! and as for your voice truly worth podcast material!!! your friend, Arooj. ☺
Gavin! This is by far one of my favorite videos of yours (: I love your creativity in your videos and you're the only booktuber I watch haha! It was so cool to see what the life of a youtuber is like. I really enjoyed seeing how you edit, your organization of videos, the thumbnail process, all of it was so engaging and I learned so much! You always inspire me to keep up with reading and my dream is to have a book room like yours! Also, I love your voice its so soothing and charismatic (:
I looooooved every second of it❤ i love that kind of content where i can see another side of you. I also love your transparency. Its truly a blessing to be able to do something you absolutely love for a living but i wish u would be able to give urself more time to reconnect with urself and live ur life a little. As much as i love to watch you i also want to be able to do so for many many years and for it to be possible u absolutely need to take time for urself and not think about content. Most of all i just want u to be happy and healthy and satisfied with the life u're living. But of course its hard to find a balance between work and ur personnal life. But its something u really need to do. Thank you for all ur content and hard work. ❤
This video was epic and insightful and brilliant. Your dedication to your channel and content creating is both inspiring and puts me to shame. I need to do more things outside the box. It is just finding time... you maximise your time and creativity, so interesting to see the behind the scenes and everything. Loved it. (Loved the cat content too!)
This was fantastic Gavin! Thank you for showing us behind the scenes, it’s was so interesting/useful. You can tell by your videos how creative and hardworking you are so it was great to see your process, you’re a credit to Booktube! 📚
I freaking love your cats so much omg! I am such a cat person so seeing cats in videos is such a dopamine boost. I have a tuxedo cat myself but i dont get to see her often cause she is at my mom's house and i stay with my grandparents since they are elderly and need someone at all times
Love this video! And something to remember with Japan is they use almost exclusively cash so make sure you have some on you! Also a train pass is 100% like the day pass! But I used to live in Japan and been to Tokyo a couple times so if you need any tips let me know!
this is so cool to see your process! I love seeing how people do content creation because everyone does it in their own creative way! very much appreciate how in depth this video is 🥰
Thanks for sharing your process with us. After listening to this, I just want to open up multiple tabs of your videos and letting them play in the background so it can help your channel. Ignore the haters....it's all about their low self esteem and not you.
I'm binging your videos and it's so strange to hear you get upsetting comments about your voice when it's one of the things I love about you! And thank you so much for the longer videos! They are so entertaining and getting entire series in one video is such a treat! Even books that don't interest me to read I love watching your videos on because you're so much fun!
Honestly, this is so fascinating, and is cementing my knowledge of myself that I could never make a RUclips channel. LOL. This is so hard and so outside of my comfort zone omg...
For the last 10 years I worked from 6am-10pm (i work in nursing). I’ve always been a night owl though and even though I got up at 4:30am for 10 years I never ever acclimated to that. I still couldn’t make myself go to bed before 12-1 and was working 16 hours on 3-4 hours of sleep- I was MISERABLE. So about 5 months ago I bit the bullet and changed my schedule to 10am-10pm which means working more days to make up for the hour loss but I can’t believe how much happier I am. If something makes you miserable don’t wait 10 years to change it like I did! Sometimes you feel stuck doing something you’ve always done- that’s how I felt but make the change (this advice is for anyone currently feeling stuck not necessarily Gavin lolol)!
Love this video, it’s so nice to see the behind the scenes and all the hard work you put into your videos. I enjoy your channel so much, you’re like my comfort blanket. As for the bullying and hate comments, I’m glad you ignore them. There’s nothing wrong with your voice & appearance. We ❤ you Gavin ✌🏻xxx
Love your thoughts about how to deal with the haters and trolls. You have a healthy attitude and I bet you were heard by someone who needed to hear it. ❤
Ah! Your intro was just perfection! Followed by an excellent video! I totally relate to not wanting to see/hear yourself and saying the same thing 100x….but your voice is soooo wonderful and relaxing and fun. Just wanted to chime in with ❤❤❤!
Love your haircut. That is on my to do list as I am on holidays. Especially before my big country concert next week. The under eye patches are awesome. Have a collection of a bunch of them. That I love trying ❤
Thank you so much for making this video Gavin! I am a content creator and even I don’t realise how much time I spend in every little detail. We’re always considered like lazy ppl with an easy job but it’s just not true and I’m so glad ppl can see this in your video ! I can’t believe you still get hate comments (even though I get them too so I know it’s part of the job but) you’re the most wholesome person ever! Also : I love your voice and accent! ❤
I'm sorry people leave hate comments. It seems like people can't resist, instead of just moving on when they don't like something. On that note, my partner and I were watching your haunted adventure series last night and partner said "I love this dude's voice omg. Accent is top tier." So don't listen to the haters. 💖
You are such a good youtuber gavin! You have concepts, good channel organization, on camera charisma and smooth editing that flows. That is rare to have a combo of all of that!!! ❤❤
Год назад+2
this is by far one of the most comprehensive videos on being a full-time youtuber i've ever seen 😱 i love seeing the behind the scenes and the work that goes into your vidoes!
just got to the part about your spreadsheet and im just here sitting stunned cuz i didnt know this whole time that those 13 volumes of blood on the tracks were just prologues!!????
I personally love your voice and accent!!🩵 I can’t believe how much work you do I mean it makes since because your videos are always top tier but damn😊 I could never do have the stuff you do, your truly an inspiration🥰
I loved this video! I’ll never do RUclips videos myself but it was so interesting to see your process. Thanks for all the effort you put into your content - we all appreciate and enjoy it so much ❤
I loved to see this. As someone who always admired the amount of work, thought and creativity you put into your videos, it's nice to see some BTS. Keep doing what you're doing, Gav. You're one of the best booktubers around!!
Thank you for keeping me company while I worked. Loved seeing your work experience as well. And the opening made me laugh out loud. 😄 I hadn’t thought of that show in eons and it made me giggle.
I actually find your voice really soothing. Your videos have become my comfort watches. Hopefully that makes up for that hate comment kgxydkydu Congrats on being able to do RUclips full time!! You can definitely tell that you love it through all of the work you put into your videos. Those scene overlays you do are just 🤌🤣
I like your voice, Gavin 😊 I have daily headaches, and most sounds make them even more painful. So I have to be really careful with the content I watch. You have a soothing voice to my brain and really interesting and fun content ❤️
I love ur voice so much, it’s so soothing. I sometimes have ur videos on in the background when I go to sleep. People that choose to hate are honestly so annoying and I’ll never understand how they find amusement out of making someone else feel like crap.
Gavin, I loved this video! One of my favs from you, seeing you get real about what it entails to do this kind of job and catching behind-the-scenes footage. Just a thought, but whenever you find yourself in the middle of a long project and you need to upload something but don't have the time/motivation to read/film something else, you could maybe do a "read with me" video, just filming yourself reading in real-time for 30-60 mins (especially if it's raining!!). Sometimes I get tired of ambiance videos/sprints and just like playing "read/study/work with me videos". Just an idea^^ I imagine they are way faster to edit and upload
I'm happy this job feeds you intellectually. I hope it stays that way for as long as you want it to keep on going. That being said, I really hope you're also taking care of yourself outside of the job, even though it can feel like it's also a hobby because of the creative side of it. Because even when we love what we do, be it for work or as a hobby, we're not protected against burn out. Having trouble sleeping because your mind keeps focusing on the creative/job part of things is, in my experience, something you want to keep tabs on. Because it can so quickly switch between "i cannot sleep because I'm too exctied for X, Y and Z" to "i cannot sleep and all my emotions are a mess and I'm overwhelmed". My "trick" for sleep (sleep is a BIG part of having a healthy balance of work/leisure/social/self-care), tho it's been a work in progress, is that 1. I've talked about it with my doctor and have light medication for it now, 2. getting a "smart-watch" that logs in my sleep, 3. having a bedtime ritual-ish (it's the HARDEST part, the one I fail at the most, but as no one is growing younger, I need to do better as it affects global health soooooo much). So I hope you find the things that work for you, and cheers to a more conscious effort to finding the sweet spot of that balance :)
"Love comment" I love your voice, it reminds me of my best friend when I lived in the UK and reminds me of some of the best times in my life. Sometimes I put your videoes on in the background just because your voice soothes me.
I’d love to watch a video of you reading your most anticipated reads from over the years or for this year (as we approach the halfway point of the year). That way you can read those books and we can watch you read them 😊
I love this video I worked alongside you lol. I am so sad people give you hate comments that’s just ridiculous. I just want you to know I fall asleep to your videos every night because I love your voice and your energy is such a comfort! ❤❤🥰🥰
THIS WAS AWESOME!!! Thank you so much for this Gavin and all the hard work you put into your videos!!! We love and appreciate you and the joy you bring! 🤗🥰🩵
I want to go to that cute little cafe under the spire! 😍 This video came at a perfect time because after about two years I think I am finally ready to try being a RUclipsr. Even though it scares me, it excites me as well
Photoshop tip to copy layer effects to a new layer so you don't have to do them again like you did with the logo layer here: right-click (is that ctrl+click on Mac) the layer with the effects you want and choose "copy layer style", then choose the other layer and "paste layer style". And voilà!

Ay thanks so much Erica 🥰
You’re definitely 100% one of the most creative people I’ve ever known on the internet and honestly balance really is such a hard thing to find and its always fluctuating too. But thank you for this video!! Watching a Gavin video or joining your livestreams genuinely take me out of any rut. Thank you for sharing everything you do in your week and for all your efforts and care that go into your videos! (ALSO now I’m more than halfway through the video and you’re perfect and beautiful and your voice is great. Period)
Aw thanks so much Juniper, and glad I can always help when you need me ❤ thank you always for your support, I always appreciate it!

This is just a genius video. Showing the actual way content creators do their day. It shows how much work you put in. Respect
Gavin puts out the level of content I can only hope to replicate half as well.
Oh that’s too kind, I’m positive you already do!
This was so interesting to watch, I love seeing a snapshot of how your week goes because I know you put SO MUCH work and effort into your videos and you are so creative, it blows my mind. We love you so much!
Side note: I find your voice SO soothing, I will listen to your videos if I'm having a hard time going to sleep and it helps, so those comments are full of shite.
Thank you Andie 🥰 and I'm glad someone finds my voice soothing haha, thank you for the support ❤
I didn't realise how much actually goes into a RUclips channel! What you do is amazing, and you should be so proud! Don't listen to the haters , screw them !!! ❤
2HOURS GAV?! we get the director's cut on being a full time yt'er haha - great man. Making a proper cup of coffee for this one. 👏🏼

That desperate housewives ad intro, Gavin, I caaaaaan't
Looooved how transparent and detailed you were throughout this video! We see all of the work and dedication you put into the videos
your desperate housewives intro was amazing. i literally just started watching the series for the first time and i got a real kick out of it. loved seeing another creator's process! i looove organization videos in general so this was of particular interest. i use notion for all my video planning but your doc was cool to be able to see everything in one place.
Ahh I hope you love your first watch of Desperate Housewives, one of my all time favourite shows!
As an early subscriber, it makes me so happy to see your channel grow and become the amazing creative space that it is! This was wonderful to watch.
Oh thank you so much for sticking with me through it all, I know I haven’t made it easy but I appreciate you ❤️
as someone who has wanted to get into content creating and has just started getting into it. i thoroughly appreciate this video. I've always been intimidated to make content or do videos but this was in a way comforting. thank you for making this. ive never seen anyone be this thorough and detailed about this which made it even that much more wonderful. love you Gavin

Congrats Gavin on being able to make your youtube channel your full time job! So few people are able to do this, this is such a huge achievement. I hope you feel really proud of yourself. So amazing to see someone from our crappy town and school able to achieve their dreams ❤
I love the message to do what you love and live in the moment, I need to take that advice and run with it! I’ve been blogging part time as a hobby for years and would love to take the leap; you’ve inspired me!
Great video Gav I hope you will be making videos for a long time to come we all love you!❤️
Thank you so much and I hope you do run after your dreams ❤️
OMG YOUR KITTY IS SO BIG NOW!!!! You don't do things like any other booktuber and you've become a comfort watch. Go Gav Go!
This was ABSOLUTELY FASCINATING!! Thank you for the time you put into this!!

OVER two hours?! I love being BLESSED
As a fellow content creator, you know it would have been hard to show what we do in less time than that 😂 in short, we do too much
@@GavinReadsItAll I genuinely feel like if I did this it would be absolute chaos, but this is so organized omg
This was fantastic Gavin! Thank you for showing us behind the scenes, it’s was so interesting/useful. You can tell by your videos how creative and hardworking you are so it was great to see your process, you’re a credit to Booktube! 📚

Agreed to the working at a retail job killing your sleeping pattern. I have been in retail for 15 plus years now
Thanks for sharing your process with us. After listening to this, I just want to open up multiple tabs of your videos and letting them play in the background so it can help your channel. Ignore the haters....it's all about their low self esteem and not you.
Literally at the beginning and choking with laughter on my toast
I'm binging your videos and it's so strange to hear you get upsetting comments about your voice when it's one of the things I love about you!
And thank you so much for the longer videos! They are so entertaining and getting entire series in one video is such a treat! Even books that don't interest me to read I love watching your videos on because you're so much fun!
Honestly, this is so fascinating, and is cementing my knowledge of myself that I could never make a RUclips channel. LOL. This is so hard and so outside of my comfort zone omg...
Gavin. The intro.
oh my god I had no idea how much time was put into filming, editing, creating content in general, it's insaneeee
You and I are the same way about our cats😂 I never want to leave them long. Also, I like your voice.
For the last 10 years I worked from 6am-10pm (i work in nursing). I’ve always been a night owl though and even though I got up at 4:30am for 10 years I never ever acclimated to that. I still couldn’t make myself go to bed before 12-1 and was working 16 hours on 3-4 hours of sleep- I was MISERABLE.

Sometimes you feel stuck doing something you’ve always done- that’s how I felt but make the change (this advice is for anyone currently feeling stuck not necessarily Gavin lolol)!
THIS is the video I’ve been looking for for years! I loved it! Thank you for all the work you do🤍
Love this video, it’s so nice to see the behind the scenes and all the hard work you put into your videos. I enjoy your channel so much, you’re like my comfort blanket.
As for the bullying and hate comments, I’m glad you ignore them. There’s nothing wrong with your voice & appearance. We ❤ you Gavin ✌🏻xxx
Love this concept! It also really helps other beginning creators when deciding how to film videos and edit. So fun to watch!!
Love your thoughts about how to deal with the haters and trolls. You have a healthy attitude and I bet you were heard by someone who needed to hear it. ❤
Your voice is lovely and it makes my heart happy to listen to you 🥰 this video was great…every video is great though!!!
Still watching this! But I appreciate you sharing your day with us! And especially the process
Ah! Your intro was just perfection! Followed by an excellent video! I totally relate to not wanting to see/hear yourself and saying the same thing 100x….but your voice is soooo wonderful and relaxing and fun. Just wanted to chime in with ❤❤❤!
This was amazing and fascinating. Thank you for giving us the inside scoop. 🐈⬛🐈⬛❤
Easily one of the best intros I've ever seen!! And the seemless transition to the sponser... chefs kiss!
Haha thanks so much!
I’m so happy that you’ve given us a Sneak Peek as well as served some realness without how you go about your day which doesn’t start at 8 am.
This is so in depth and interesting! Thank you!
Love your haircut. That is on my to do list as I am on holidays. Especially before my big country concert next week.
The under eye patches are awesome. Have a collection of a bunch of them. That I love trying ❤
I’ve had a few moments of doubt but I hope your video gives us the strength and encouragement to engage in our passions.
Thank you so much for making this video Gavin! I am a content creator and even I don’t realise how much time I spend in every little detail. We’re always considered like lazy ppl with an easy job but it’s just not true and I’m so glad ppl can see this in your video !
I can’t believe you still get hate comments (even though I get them too so I know it’s part of the job but) you’re the most wholesome person ever! Also : I love your voice and accent! ❤
I'm sorry people leave hate comments. It seems like people can't resist, instead of just moving on when they don't like something. On that note, my partner and I were watching your haunted adventure series last night and partner said "I love this dude's voice omg. Accent is top tier." So don't listen to the haters. 💖
You are such a good youtuber gavin! You have concepts, good channel organization, on camera charisma and smooth editing that flows. That is rare to have a combo of all of that!!! ❤❤
this is by far one of the most comprehensive videos on being a full-time youtuber i've ever seen 😱 i love seeing the behind the scenes and the work that goes into your vidoes!
2:11 I love that you have a RUclipsr Setup. Now we need to see you in your Twitch Era.
just got to the part about your spreadsheet and im just here sitting stunned cuz i didnt know this whole time that those 13 volumes of blood on the tracks were just prologues!!????
Happy birthday! I just turned 31 too
I love that you kept the wig on while editing the green screen 😄it was really interesting seeing your whole process!
Haha I had to in case I had to go back to filming, but fortunately the take I took was good enough 😂
Hey, thanks for keeping me company.
I personally love your voice and accent!!🩵 I can’t believe how much work you do I mean it makes since because your videos are always top tier but damn😊 I could never do have the stuff you do, your truly an inspiration🥰
I loved this video! I’ll never do RUclips videos myself but it was so interesting to see your process. Thanks for all the effort you put into your content - we all appreciate and enjoy it so much ❤
I applaud all of your hard work, I knew it was a lot of work but wow! We all appreciate you!! Your videos are always spot on!
Thank you so much!
Thank you for this feature film!!!
I loved to see this. As someone who always admired the amount of work, thought and creativity you put into your videos, it's nice to see some BTS. Keep doing what you're doing, Gav. You're one of the best booktubers around!!
Thank you for keeping me company while I worked. Loved seeing your work experience as well. And the opening made me laugh out loud. 😄 I hadn’t thought of that show in eons and it made me giggle.
I actually find your voice really soothing. Your videos have become my comfort watches. Hopefully that makes up for that hate comment kgxydkydu
Congrats on being able to do RUclips full time!! You can definitely tell that you love it through all of the work you put into your videos. Those scene overlays you do are just 🤌🤣
I like your voice, Gavin 😊 I have daily headaches, and most sounds make them even more painful. So I have to be really careful with the content I watch. You have a soothing voice to my brain and really interesting and fun content ❤️
I love ur voice so much, it’s so soothing. I sometimes have ur videos on in the background when I go to sleep. People that choose to hate are honestly so annoying and I’ll never understand how they find amusement out of making someone else feel like crap.
THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO!!!
Gavin, I loved this video! One of my favs from you, seeing you get real about what it entails to do this kind of job and catching behind-the-scenes footage.
Just a thought, but whenever you find yourself in the middle of a long project and you need to upload something but don't have the time/motivation to read/film something else, you could maybe do a "read with me" video, just filming yourself reading in real-time for 30-60 mins (especially if it's raining!!). Sometimes I get tired of ambiance videos/sprints and just like playing "read/study/work with me videos". Just an idea^^ I imagine they are way faster to edit and upload
I'm happy this job feeds you intellectually. I hope it stays that way for as long as you want it to keep on going.
That being said, I really hope you're also taking care of yourself outside of the job, even though it can feel like it's also a hobby because of the creative side of it. Because even when we love what we do, be it for work or as a hobby, we're not protected against burn out.
Having trouble sleeping because your mind keeps focusing on the creative/job part of things is, in my experience, something you want to keep tabs on. Because it can so quickly switch between "i cannot sleep because I'm too exctied for X, Y and Z" to "i cannot sleep and all my emotions are a mess and I'm overwhelmed".
My "trick" for sleep (sleep is a BIG part of having a healthy balance of work/leisure/social/self-care), tho it's been a work in progress, is that 1. I've talked about it with my doctor and have light medication for it now, 2. getting a "smart-watch" that logs in my sleep, 3. having a bedtime ritual-ish (it's the HARDEST part, the one I fail at the most, but as no one is growing younger, I need to do better as it affects global health soooooo much).
So I hope you find the things that work for you, and cheers to a more conscious effort to finding the sweet spot of that balance :)
"Love comment"
I love your voice, it reminds me of my best friend when I lived in the UK and reminds me of some of the best times in my life. Sometimes I put your videoes on in the background just because your voice soothes me.
I'm really excited for the Are you Afraid of the Dark video omg
I better deliver haha
I’d love to watch a video of you reading your most anticipated reads from over the years or for this year (as we approach the halfway point of the year). That way you can read those books and we can watch you read them 😊
4:23 Happy Belated Birthday! Sending my best and have a great year ahead!
Wow I’m in awe of the editing skills! 😮🤩
I love this video I worked alongside you lol. I am so sad people give you hate comments that’s just ridiculous. I just want you to know I fall asleep to your videos every night because I love your voice and your energy is such a comfort! ❤❤🥰🥰
Thank you ❤️
I’m freaking DEAD at the opening of this video. Lololololollllll
Loved this video! Thank you for shRing the behind the scenes. One day I’ll work up the courage to start my YT creator journey
Not the Magnum Opus Vlog ExtraGAVanza. Omg this is so excited and I love the cold open. It’s giving creative genius.
most positive comforting creator
THIS WAS AWESOME!!! Thank you so much for this Gavin and all the hard work you put into your videos!!! We love and appreciate you and the joy you bring! 🤗🥰🩵
I want to go to that cute little cafe under the spire! 😍 This video came at a perfect time because after about two years I think I am finally ready to try being a RUclipsr. Even though it scares me, it excites me as well
Photoshop tip to copy layer effects to a new layer so you don't have to do them again like you did with the logo layer here: right-click (is that ctrl+click on Mac) the layer with the effects you want and choose "copy layer style", then choose the other layer and "paste layer style". And voilà!
this video is so iconic. i’m so inspired by you, Gavin!
This was great Gavin, very informative, thanks for taking the time to show us behind the scenes! Best Wishes 💕
Thank-you for an amazing video!! It was so amazing to see behind the curtain. Super grateful for all your content. Thanks again :)
This was amazing, thank you so much for showing us a behind the scenes look!
