Don't focus on money. If you really only wanted to focus on money you'd rent a room for a couple hundred a month, invest all of your extra funds into bitcoin (until it gets back around mid 20's), sell it in 2 years (or sooner if it hits 100K before the end of 2024), live off of some of it, but save some $$ to buy it again during the next dip and repeat the process. You always seamed to me as someone who focused on being free. When you want to hang with friends, you do that. When you want to write, you do that. You have a remote job that gives you a ton of freedom. When you want to take a vacation you do that. When you want to see family you do that. From the outside looking in, you've created exactly the life you want (and can expect to live) at this point in time of your life. If you concentrated 100% on youtube, could you become a daily vlogger and have some more subs? Sure. If you spent every non-working, non-sleeping hour on writing would you be published? Sure. Could you live off of fiverr if you kept adding clients, reviews and you put it above everything else? Sure. Keep in mind this is with dropping everything else in your life to make it your one and only focus. But would you be as happy with one of these as you would be with the freedom to choose the path depending on how you feel that day? The best life advice I ever heard revolved around the F's: Family, Finances, Fitness (includes sleep), Friends, Fun, and Future. You can do one with your maximum ability. If you choose to two, you can juggle 2 great. If you add a third you'll do each one good, but none great. You'll be terrible at 4 one of them if you add a 4th. How many would you choose to do daily and which ones would you choose? After you answer that question honestly and truthfully, then you need to set up a DAILY schedule that is robotic and mindless. Whatever your number 1 priority is, that's what you do to start the day every day. Then, whenever you're done, you do number 2. Then (if you say have 3 for instance), you finish the day with whatever time you have for #3. So, where I heard that from he had fitness, finances and family (in that order). Dude would work out for the first 3-4 hours a day and fall asleep by 8pm (so he could wake up at 4a). Then he'd work for 10 hours to keep his finances right. Then he'd see his kids and wife for maybe 30 minutes to an hour. I'm in the process of rearranging my life, because it got out of balance, and all because I didn't prioritize it like this (most important first to least important and I can't be everything to everyone). I'm going to do fitness to start the day, fitness to end the day, and finances in the middle. Dropping friends, fun, family and future isn't great, but you can't be great at all 6; there's just not enough hours. But just because you drop some things now, doesn't mean you can't recover them later. Way too long but hope that helps.
The creative journey definitely has ups and downs! I've been through a lot of this since I started writing, but I'm super lucky to have reached a very positive place. I'm proud of the draft I'm working on, looking forward to my daily writing sessions, and feeling confident in my writing abilities. All that to say that it certainly goes in waves! My current limiting belief is that I won't have any chance of getting an agent when I start querying in the upcoming months. Hearing everyone on Twitter say that it's impossible has made me feel like I will have the same outcome. Maybe I will! But I'm trying to remind myself that I have 0 context around those tweets (genre, if the MS is actually ready for querying, etc) and so many people believe in my writing. I should believe in it too. PS. I watch all of your videos and look forward to them! You add lots of value to the YT space :)
The veiws look so empowering. It's always inspiring to get out in nature. I have a forest 5 mins from mine, there's a secret garden in the center, where I write for an hour a day. I'm ow rewatch all of Brandon Sanderson's lectures between writing sprints. I'm now 15,000 and 4 chapters into my novel, which is a heist / high fantasy project of mine, I call it project EE. I have just booked a week of work so I can write like Brandon Sanderson for a week. Get up at noon and 2 writing sprints for 4 hour a day. I'm so excited for it! Getting a lot of inspiration from your channel lately, love the content!
Thanks for sharing, such a powerful video! I feel that my limiting beliefs were so similar to yours, you sharing them made me feel like I'm not alone and the positive beliefs were definitely inspiring. Love your videos and instagram, keep creating! Love from Brazil
I haven't made it all the way through yet (and yes, I'm very late because I'm binge watching), but I just wanted to say that you ABSOLUTELY deserve to have the following that you do and to grow to even bigger numbers than even you think possible because you are amazing and just a joy to watch. I love getting to see your journey and you are one of the people I watch when I need to feel motivated. I may come back with more when I finish up the video, but I just wanted to say that here at the 7:57 mark because I didn't want to forget to let you know how much you and your content matter! ❤❤
Hi Sara, I just wanted to let you know that you’re my favorite creator on RUclips. I save your videos for last whenever I go through my subscriptions tab because yours is the one I want to watch most. You inspire me so much and I’ve saved so many of your videos (including this one) to a motivation playlist to rewatch when I need inspiration. It hurts my heart so much to hear that you have the limiting belief that people don’t care about your journey or your content because I care so deeply about it and it adds so much value to my life. I also love that you’re branching out and incorporating hiking and nature vlogging into your writing content and hope to see more of it in the future. Your adventure vlogs are my favorites to watch. I hope you have a lovely day and thanks for everything you bless the world with
You are so sweet, thank you for your thoughtful comment! I'm really glad that my videos have had an impact on you and your motivation and that you enjoy the adventure writing vlogs, they are my favorites to make as well! Hope you have a great day, good luck and happy writing!
Thank you SO much for sharing this and being vulnerable! I really needed to hear it for myself because I have wanted to start some for of content creation or blog or anything where I can share myself or creative side but have had so many limiting beliefs. I am still a barista and been one for half my life and want to do something that could grow into maybe a full time job like we all see other creators have but everything you read is what is in my heart holding me back in fear. And then the narrative you read as well was so beautiful and uplifting that it gave me hope. I know I haven’t started but I just need to give it a try. And I technically already have in a way. I did a course for Amazon KDP to try publishing books and I did one and while I didn’t make one for creative writing it was for financial advice for millennials I made a few bucks here and there. Both to boast about. But anytime I got an email saying I got a deposit I was like 😮 woah! I can actually make money online and people will listen to me. So thank you! I need to do this exercise myself. And I know my comments are always long, but please know if you think your content doesn’t matter it does. Even if it’s just for you to release energy it helped you. But even if you reached and helped another person that is a HUGE HELP to the world! And now I can keep this with me and share with anyone I know struggling. ❤
Thanks for sharing! I think this is a good practice for anyone, especially creative people! Good reminder. I often forget that my negative thoughts are negative because I'm so used to them 😕 Also! I think you're the only Authortuber I know of in Utah! How exciting. Haha. You're also making me realize it's been far to long since I've been in our beautiful mountains!
Let me adjust a few of your misbeliefs and say thus: 1) You are worthy of the people following you. A) because you as a person is very interesting. B) because your suckles are similar, though not always the same, as other creators. C) I get a lot from your take on the different authors and your take on your own life. 2) You manage to always keep yourself relevant. Both as person and as an author. 3) You are an attractive young lady - for that alone many could be following you - but mostly you are honest. Honest people attract kean listeners and true following, and I bet it's the most of the people who following you of this very reason. Honest people do not grow on the trees though they are much easier and nicer people. 😉😉😉
Many of my limiting beliefs are almost exactly the same as the ones you read out. It has taken me years to abandon them. I did so using a journal. The biggest hurdle I have had to accept is that not having a fixed salary does not mean poverty. I also had to accept that I need to let go of money (i.e, invest) in order to build my income, rather than hoarding it all for a rainy day. Also, LOADS of people have published or are publishing novels and making a living from this and other combined endeavours. I had that realisation while in the library several months ago. So I am glad to see you confirm that people do, in fact, wish to read your work. Panoramic views are great!
Hi Sara, great video and thanks so much for spreading your astounding wisdom! This has really motivated me to start putting in more effort into getting my website off the ground and garnering internet traffic. I am certain it will grow and help begin generating passive income spreading my ambition for mathematics. Even though I have had a few doubts fostered in my head about it, I realized I was not putting in enough work everyday to publishing articles and submitting content. Now that I have the self awareness to fully recognize which beliefs are hindering process, I intent to eradicate them and replace them with more realistic and beneficial ones that will begin producing the results that I am looking for.
I enjoyed this video and related to a lot of your limiting beliefs. My limiting belief: I will fail as a writer/author because I'm not as hardworking as others or disciplined or focused. Rewritten positive belief: I am a dedicated and hardworking person and already doing work as a writer and author; all I need to do is keep going and trying. I don't have to compare myself to others because they are not on my journey.
Can you make a video about things you're multi passionate about it? I always thought I had to make a living only finding one passion so I'm super stoked to find someone who's multi passionate!
I'd love to read your work(s), Sara! Don't let your limiting beliefs take over, and don't let your dreams be dreams! Let your dreams turn into realities!
Hi love! New sub here 👋!! I LOVED this video 🙏 I’ve struggled with this topic for so long.. thanks for breaking it down here. Can’t wait to follow your journey :)
If you struggle with the flipping the statements, just neutralise it at first. "I'm not able to make an income doing my creative projects.... yet, but am only getting better with experience"
I've been enjoying your content and find it inpiring. Thank you. I will take this into practice🤟🙏🧡 Limiting belief: "I can't have it all" Positive oposite: " I can have it all, by puting in the work and knowing when to take a break to recharge"(that is my biggest one, of many. So I'll work on it)🧡💋Honestly thank you. I felt alone, but people like you help me to keep me strong and remind me to be acountable for myself and not give up. (Also I'm a book dragon so let me know when you release your work)
Wow, Sara, this video is so important. When I turned it on, I was just curious about the topic in general, but I was also like "psh, I don't have any limiting beliefs, I'm happy with where I am". But then you read your list and I was like "Oh... oh." Your videos (and especially the motivational content!) are always so inspiring, but also a reality check (in a good way) at the same time. From the bottom of my heart - thank you!
Hi Sara!, I don’t have any mountains here in Bangkok and I’m bore to death, so your video basically took me on a trip there. 😭 You need to take us to some more places! 🥺🥹🙏
I'm so glad you were able to enjoy the scenery! I have a playlist of my videos that have more of Utah and scenery in it if you want to check it out! ruclips.net/p/PL9eD840O9y75haR1SLWsRxxpStjC1jfIQ
I love this video so much! Thank you for sharing and being vulnerable! It feels good to know there are other people out there who feel and think similarly 😊
Just wanted to drop by and let you know that your videos are what finally gave me the motivation to start a plan to make money as an artist and writer. I also had these beliefs that you can't make a living from this, but creators like you have shown me that it is possible! Showing your journey really is inspiring and wish you only the best going forward. Thank you so much for these videos❤
Good morning, Sara! 🌞☕ I hope you're doing good on keeping track and finishing your goals, especially the one for this month by getting draft 5 done with your project DE. Did you see any more chipmunks while hiking? I've been slacking off a little lately with writing, but hopefully I can get back to it today or this weekend. Have a wonderful, positive and productive day with writing, hiking or whatever is on your agenda for today, Sara! God Bless! ❤
I relate to so many of these limiting beliefs. Right now I am a senior in college, a got this spring semester left to go and a game design internship in the summer, but recently I have been looking more into freelance writing and editing. Game design was my backup job, being an author is my dream, but my dream has taken the backseat. Recently I've been thinking this a lot- I'm wasting my time. Instead I should be thinking- I am taking the time to learn valuable skills in a growing market that could one day contribute to my dream. I also felt the "multi-passionate" limitation the most. I have so much I want to do, but I feel like my attention is divided and that I need to pick.
100% learning valuable skills! I am watching a Masterclass on planning/building a multi-passionate career and will be filming a review of that within the next few weeks so maybe that video will help a little too!
I didn't know there was a name for these thoughts! I've always been frustrated about those, especially if I hear it from a loved one. My sister wanted to pursue a career in marine biology, but in high school she took a science class and decided "I can't do science." I was thinking, "well yeah, now that you believe that, you can't!!" It's like switching off any possibility of growth in that area. Thanks to this video I'm going to do research on limiting beliefs and reevaluate my own thinking!
Thank you for this message, it came to me at a really great time because just lately I’ve been feeling stuck as a creative. I’ve been looking for remote graphic design work for the past two weeks and haven’t landed anything yet, I also started to use fiverr to advertise my work but haven’t had my first gig yet, I was starting to lose hope but now I’m feeling more inspired and less alone, thank you :) from a new subscriber
36!?!?! Well done for facing those, and on camera! We end up doing this periodically throughout our lives if we're lucky, but the first time I did it really blew my mind too 🤗💗💔
Thank you for sharing this! I love following your journey and seeing where you're growing next! It's truly inspiring and has help me with my personal growth as well! Can't wait for more! Also, Alpine lake its GORGEOUS! 😍
Thank you for sharing this video. I have tried to sit down and work through my limiting beliefs many times and then I shut down so quickly because I start beating myself up for these beliefs, or my ego/pride/control freak self goes into denial saying “I’m fine, I can do anything, I don’t have any limiting beliefs!” Which isn’t true… I just don’t like admitting that I am the only thing holding me back. Limiting belief: I have wasted too much time now, so I will never be able to build the creative life I want. Rewritten: I am a force of creativity and there are no time limits on building the life of my dreams.
You are a force of creativity and there are no limits on building the life of your dreams!! This is a hard process for sure to address these beliefs but I believe in you!!
What a gorgeous location! I really enjoyed this video. I have so many limiting beliefs and I love the idea of turning those around to being positives that you can work towards embodying. I hope it all makes a difference!
Very inspiring! The limiting belief I have involves being multi-passionate. I keep reverting to the thinking that I need to have monomaniacal focus to find true fulfillment. I think that it is partly due to how difficult it is to execute focus shifts across varied interests. Thanks again for an inspiring vlog! Oh and I love the nature background! 🙂
I'm sorry to hear about that limiting belief! But we are humans who are multi passionate and not fixated on one thing, and we can make just as much (if not far more) happen because of it!!
Amazing video. I have been struggling with self-doubt for years. I am from an older generation and was taught to stay in my own lane. Go to college, get a good corporate job with insurance and a 401K plan and save my money for a rainy day. I sometimes feel my life is not my own. I am changing that mindset now. I am a much better creative than I am an office drone.
Hey Sara! So my brother/editor told me exactly what I needed to hear. He said that if I am going to adapt a retelling, then I need to read the original work first. I am totally only partially doing what he said. I am reading the original, but I am also still working on my second draft. I am terrible at following instructions to the letter.
@@SaraLubratt a frustrating thing is I have been self published for 6 years and I haven't even made $200 in all those 6 years. I know you don't want to self publish but do you have any encouragement for me?
@@mattmallecoccio8378 Most authors don't hit the new york times best seller list until book 11 or 13 (I can't remember which stat and I'm too lazy to look it up). JKR was rejected dozens of times and only got a book advance of $4k, whereas Twilight got a 3 book deal for $750k. Good things take time, the more you write, the better you will become, and the more books you put out will get you noticed by more people and those people will come back and visit your backlog of published books. It's a marathon, not a sprint. I encourage you to keep writing because you love it, and in the future, others will love it too
@@SaraLubratt thank you. That was precisely what I needed to hear. 😊 I am working hard, at the very least. My epic fantasy has been being written for almost my entire writing career so far and it's a labor of love.

Wow, Sara, this video is so important. When I turned it on, I was just curious about the topic in general, but I was also like "psh, I don't have any limiting beliefs, I'm happy with where I am". But then you read your list and I was like "Oh... oh."
Your videos (and especially the motivational content!) are always so inspiring, but also a reality check (in a good way) at the same time. From the bottom of my heart - thank you!
This is such a lovely comment, thank you! Unfortunately I think we all have limiting beliefs and I hope you are able to work through some of yours!
Hi Sara!,
I don’t have any mountains here in Bangkok and I’m bore to death, so your video basically took me on a trip there. 😭
You need to take us to some more places! 🥺🥹🙏
I'm so glad you were able to enjoy the scenery! I have a playlist of my videos that have more of Utah and scenery in it if you want to check it out! ruclips.net/p/PL9eD840O9y75haR1SLWsRxxpStjC1jfIQ
I have done this exercise before and it’s so freeing and emotional!!
It really is!
I love this video so much! Thank you for sharing and being vulnerable! It feels good to know there are other people out there who feel and think similarly 😊
Thank you for watching! I'm glad you found this helpful!
Just wanted to drop by and let you know that your videos are what finally gave me the motivation to start a plan to make money as an artist and writer. I also had these beliefs that you can't make a living from this, but creators like you have shown me that it is possible! Showing your journey really is inspiring and wish you only the best going forward. Thank you so much for these videos❤
❤️❤️❤️
This is a great video, and I love seeing more of Utah in your videos. You’re crushing it!
Thank you!
thank you for shaving you process it was a moving video. It made me reflect of my own limiting beliefs, my eyes got teary too
❤️ glad you found it helpful!
So inspiring and you are not alone, we all share limiting beliefs. Your channel is so great!
Thank you so much!
I loved this video! I'm going on a hike today and I'm going to try this out!
Yay!! How did it go?
Keep crushing those limits Sara!
Thank you!
I really needed this. thank you so much, i wish you all the best
❤️❤️❤️
I feel like to make stories you better be multi-passionated
I think it certainly helps :)
Love the scenery! And the topic of this video is so timely 💕
Glad you liked it!!
I will never be successful as a creator -> I do not know how successful I can be
You will be unbelievable successful as a creator!!
For real, I genuinely love you so much!!!
Thank you!
I would kill for it to be 46 here in Florida, instead of 96. I shall live vicariously through your hiking exploits!
😂 It was a cool 75 in the valley that day, 46 in the mountains (but we're back to our high 90s rn)
@@SaraLubratt Aaaahhhh, okay, as much as that sucks, I can now give myself permission to be exponentially less jealous of you, haha.
Good morning, Sara! 🌞☕ I hope you're doing good on keeping track and finishing your goals, especially the one for this month by getting draft 5 done with your project DE. Did you see any more chipmunks while hiking? I've been slacking off a little lately with writing, but hopefully I can get back to it today or this weekend. Have a wonderful, positive and productive day with writing, hiking or whatever is on your agenda for today, Sara! God Bless! ❤
Lots of chipmunks while hiking! Thanks! Have a great day!
@@SaraLubratt You're welcome and thank you. ❤
Love this! 🔥
Thank you! ❤️
I relate to so many of these limiting beliefs. Right now I am a senior in college, a got this spring semester left to go and a game design internship in the summer, but recently I have been looking more into freelance writing and editing. Game design was my backup job, being an author is my dream, but my dream has taken the backseat.
Recently I've been thinking this a lot- I'm wasting my time.
Instead I should be thinking- I am taking the time to learn valuable skills in a growing market that could one day contribute to my dream.
I also felt the "multi-passionate" limitation the most. I have so much I want to do, but I feel like my attention is divided and that I need to pick.
100% learning valuable skills! I am watching a Masterclass on planning/building a multi-passionate career and will be filming a review of that within the next few weeks so maybe that video will help a little too!
I understand it’s hard and frustrating, but be gentle with yourself, you’ll figure it out :)
@@SaraLubratt thank you! That would be great, I can’t wait to see it!
I didn't know there was a name for these thoughts! I've always been frustrated about those, especially if I hear it from a loved one. My sister wanted to pursue a career in marine biology, but in high school she took a science class and decided "I can't do science." I was thinking, "well yeah, now that you believe that, you can't!!" It's like switching off any possibility of growth in that area. Thanks to this video I'm going to do research on limiting beliefs and reevaluate my own thinking!
Thank you for this message, it came to me at a really great time because just lately I’ve been feeling stuck as a creative. I’ve been looking for remote graphic design work for the past two weeks and haven’t landed anything yet, I also started to use fiverr to advertise my work but haven’t had my first gig yet, I was starting to lose hope but now I’m feeling more inspired and less alone, thank you :) from a new subscriber
36!?!?! Well done for facing those, and on camera! We end up doing this periodically throughout our lives if we're lucky, but the first time I did it really blew my mind too 🤗💗💔
Thank you for watching!
Thank you for sharing this! I love following your journey and seeing where you're growing next! It's truly inspiring and has help me with my personal growth as well! Can't wait for more! Also, Alpine lake its GORGEOUS! 😍
Thank you so much for watching! I really appreciate every comment you leave on my videos :)
Thank you for sharing this video. I have tried to sit down and work through my limiting beliefs many times and then I shut down so quickly because I start beating myself up for these beliefs, or my ego/pride/control freak self goes into denial saying “I’m fine, I can do anything, I don’t have any limiting beliefs!” Which isn’t true… I just don’t like admitting that I am the only thing holding me back.
Limiting belief: I have wasted too much time now, so I will never be able to build the creative life I want.
Rewritten: I am a force of creativity and there are no time limits on building the life of my dreams.
You are a force of creativity and there are no limits on building the life of your dreams!!
This is a hard process for sure to address these beliefs but I believe in you!!
What a gorgeous location! I really enjoyed this video. I have so many limiting beliefs and I love the idea of turning those around to being positives that you can work towards embodying. I hope it all makes a difference!
Thank you Cassie! Good luck with your own (old) limiting beliefs and the (new) positive approach to them!
Very inspiring! The limiting belief I have involves being multi-passionate. I keep reverting to the thinking that I need to have monomaniacal focus to find true fulfillment. I think that it is partly due to how difficult it is to execute focus shifts across varied interests. Thanks again for an inspiring vlog! Oh and I love the nature background! 🙂
I'm sorry to hear about that limiting belief! But we are humans who are multi passionate and not fixated on one thing, and we can make just as much (if not far more) happen because of it!!
I finally got the channel I like♥️🌚
Welcome!
@@SaraLubratt 🥺🤍.
@@SaraLubratt When do you upload a clip?
@@حمدلله-ض7ص I upload videos twice a week, the next one will be up tomorrow morning
Amazing video. I have been struggling with self-doubt for years. I am from an older generation and was taught to stay in my own lane. Go to college, get a good corporate job with insurance and a 401K plan and save my money for a rainy day. I sometimes feel my life is not my own. I am changing that mindset now. I am a much better creative than I am an office drone.
Wanita! I'm so happy for you and reworking your beliefs! I'm really proud of you :)
Hey Sara! So my brother/editor told me exactly what I needed to hear. He said that if I am going to adapt a retelling, then I need to read the original work first. I am totally only partially doing what he said. I am reading the original, but I am also still working on my second draft. I am terrible at following instructions to the letter.
😂 if that's working for you though, that's great!
@@SaraLubratt a frustrating thing is I have been self published for 6 years and I haven't even made $200 in all those 6 years. I know you don't want to self publish but do you have any encouragement for me?
@@mattmallecoccio8378 Most authors don't hit the new york times best seller list until book 11 or 13 (I can't remember which stat and I'm too lazy to look it up). JKR was rejected dozens of times and only got a book advance of $4k, whereas Twilight got a 3 book deal for $750k. Good things take time, the more you write, the better you will become, and the more books you put out will get you noticed by more people and those people will come back and visit your backlog of published books. It's a marathon, not a sprint. I encourage you to keep writing because you love it, and in the future, others will love it too
@@SaraLubratt thank you. That was precisely what I needed to hear. 😊 I am working hard, at the very least. My epic fantasy has been being written for almost my entire writing career so far and it's a labor of love.
@@mattmallecoccio8378 You got this!
