Question of the Day ⚡ What is your experience with burnout? Let us know! 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼 *** WATCH THIS VIDEO NEXT: This video covers the five stages of RUclips success and tips for speeding up your growth! 👉 ruclips.net/video/CwkFkI84PxY/видео.html
The burn out is REAL!!
I think I was doing really well focusing on my content and keywords, but then I figured I needed a Facebook page. I got all wrapped up in anxiety shortly after that and lost my focus. Luckily, I have calmed down now and am prioritizing what is possible in my current stage (what you once referred to as the sacrifice stage).
I just wanted to let you know how much you have been helping me this past month. I love you and Roberto Blake. You really do add value to this world. Keep it up.
I was pretty close to it but your video helped a lot. Thank you.
Also, could you give more tips on how to choose or hire a team for a beginner? I wanna hire an editor but can't decide how to choose, or how much to spend on it since I'm a small RUclipsr.
I don't know how to make a good video I try alot but nothing is working for me, what should I do sir please.
The biggest challenge is the RUclips algorithm, realistically in any other business nobody would just keep going depending on AI to push and/or sell your product. From a work perspective there is no job that doesn’t require you to work hard especially if you want to be successful. You can do the best and most quality video possible, however if the algorithm decides that is not a topic that people want to see, nobody will ever find your channel. When this happens over and over again, people will burn out.
I personally removed the app from my phone because I would check my analytics all the time. Seeing that I would not get views or I lost a subscriber made me sad so now it's only on my computer, I check a few times a day and it's way better.
The perfect French with Dylane this is where I stand right now! I started a channel 3 weeks ago on intermittent Fasting
The perfect French with Dylane so true! Since I stopped doing it I feel so much better ❤️
When you start taking something you love and start associating it with work it can be dangerous.. and burnout is a side affect of this! I encourage everybody to slow down if you feel working on your channel becomes daunting. Keep it sustainable!
Thank you!
Thank you!
Yes! Another great point. One video a month is better than zero.
@@Monoperty Especially if you worked hard on it!
Very true
I have suffered from burnout in the past but I'm still here trucking with my channel!
Elliot Coen good for you!

Lucas Dusenbery Great Tips!
Thank you so much! didnt feel like wathing a youtube video your a life saver!
Great list! Thank you Lucas!
Super powerful information. Just got back from a filming trip and ended up with 65 new videos to edit, on to of any remaining from the previous trip. Hiring an editor I feel is my next step for 2020. Just gotta find the right one, mainly someone I can trust.
After 2 years of being on YT the two biggest things that have kept me from burning out is 1. Loving what I’m doing and creating. And 2. Pacing. I have seen daily challenges and passed on them. Or even multiple videos in a week. I have been able to stay consistent and put out quality content because I’m not over extending myself.
Great vid!
Sticking to deadlines is difficult no matter what you do, whether its a 9-5 job or producing youtube content. Its tough, but one can do it. And it being possible is enough to push through even if you miss your deadline stay at it, i believe eventually it will become more and more consistent🙌
I agree. I missed a deadline last week by one day. I was annoyed with myself but soon realised that at least I created some content, which is the most important thing.
True, It is better to finish than being left behind.
I say just have fun , everything falls into place .
Crash Tv you’re right. 😉
I think what has helped me from feeling burnt out is that I don’t have an “upload” schedule. Sometimes I’ll upload once a week, other times I’ll upload once a month. My mentality toward RUclips isn’t really ideal for an “aspiring” RUclipsr. If people watch my videos, cool. If they don’t, cool. It’s a hobby that I enjoy. Hobbies should be fun.
Just started about 3 months ago and already feeling it! Wearing so many hats is hard.
Agree!
How you finding it now?
I just started RUclips and I am already feeling a bit tired but I will keep pushing because you tips help me out a lot.
It's the editing that does me in.
@@thepolticalone961 yeah all I really do is edit
@@obsidianroost9197 ye it's a real pain
I actually enjoy the editing so much! That’s my problem, I sometimes sleep past midnight just editing and I lose rest. What does me in is the analytics and always watching the trend.
I just subscribe to your channel please show some love too
The first $2000 I made on RUclips immediately went into paying an artist and an editor to help me create my first book. Now? It releases next month
I have felt this so much the past couple weeks. Especially being a new RUclipsr trying to grow you feel like you need to keep pushing but you can only be your best you if you are giving yourself enough rest! Thank you for this video ❤️
Very true..
Harley & Jess
And also if ya don’t slow it’s going to show , you going to stop caring and it’s going to be one big lie . Just have fun and everything else will fall into place . Take a few days off just to recharge.
I agree!
Harley & Jess know the feeling ❤️
Harley & Jess I agree! One day at a time. No rush.
Those round table discussions are packed with so much value. Thanks for that, Sean. I seem to get burned out around the same time every year, so I take off from all social media for like six weeks starting in mid-November thru the New Year. I think taking a step back and reevaluating your goals at a regular interval is crucial to avoiding burnout. We're constantly changing as people and by the time we achieve our goals, we're often different people than the ones who created those goals. There's also some things you do as a creator that don't move the needle and I think the faster you can identify those things and pivot, the better you'll feel about where you're heading and what you're doing. “The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again, but expecting different results.” Sub out insanity for burnout (often blurred in my mind haha) and work smarter, not harder. And be grateful. What an amazing time we live in, where we get to share out stories with the world! Cheers 🤓
I don’t want to feel burned out because am here to stay and make the best out of it. Thank you for updating us.
When u feel like things are becoming difficult to handle...
Especially when u just started youtube
*I'm doing monthly uploads now to avoid all this burnout! 2 videos a month.*
*I've done daily uploads in 2018 and it didn't go so well by summer time because I needed to put thumbnails on all of my videos. Then, I switched to weekdays and I also got burnout so I'm no longer promising a schedule for people to watch my videos.*
Just upload at least once a week. Tell them they will get new vids every week. That way you can upload anyday of the week without feeling pressure.
Thanks for the tips! I had a little burnout in the beginning but i have realigned my values and now I am back to be more consistent! I am ready to grow my channel even more! :)
Things turn out best for the people who make the best of the way things turn out.
👊👊👍👍👍👍
Great advice..💚🙏
Thing about being a RUclips creator is, the actual recording and editing is a lot of work. And that creation is just the report of a lot of behind the scenes work!
EcoCentric Homestead I love the recording but editing takes soooo much time
I have started a RUclips channel 6 months ago
How’s your channel coming? I’ve started a channel too 3 weeks ago
@@gladyschristman9594 I just subscribe to your channel please show some love too
Will definitely utilize these so that I don’t burnout with my own channel🙌🏻Thank you so much for the tips; helping 1,000,000 with their personal finances is a long journey but I’ll get there, especially with these tips✨
I just forgot my old boring channel, burnout. Now im doing this one and im having fun!! Thanks for the tips!
I need a better system for sure! Thank you Sean and Think Media for always providing quality content! 💪🏽
Very valuable info. All sound advice. Great video Sean!
Sometimes it's tough but before you know it feels so good again.
Love this:
"but there's a whole lot of work in the middle?"!
RUclips is a ton of work - much more than I anticipated :). A challenge with the field that I am in as well (life coaching and mental health) is that I hear from so people who are suffering so much around the world...and so many reaching out for free help. I've become affiliated with a couple of companies that can help people worldwide, so that has helped. I also put in place some "gatekeepers" so people have to fill out a form before contacting me, and an admin to answer emails. That has helped a lot.
This is inspiring and it’s great to learn the business side of everything you do. I am a new youtuber so burnout is a reality but because RUclips is a way of socializing with people especially now that am living in a social free society so I don’t think I will allow myself to be burned out. Connecting with my RUclips community is becoming a must do for me.
This channel and think marketing are a life saver for us creators
I'm retired and building our channel. I decided to use the free version of Davinci Resolve 16 and that is quite the learning curve, but I am enjoying the challenge. My husband's name is on our channel (because I couldn't figure out how to change it), and I'm happy to say he is also starting to contribute his 2 cents--which is really helping it become a joint venture. Sometimes it doesn't seem worth it, but our videos are something I want to pass on to future generations, so giving up is NOT an option. Blessings everyone and just DO IT!
3:25 talking about balance and suddenly the exposure balance starts shifting 🤣
Nice catch :-)
LMAO 😂😂
*Thanks for sharing this! You have to love the Process.* 😉
Thanks for your information bro..,👍
I so feel this, I LOVE CREATING, but it is challenging getting started. I work as a performer which is so so so demanding and I’ve been setting up my RUclips in the past two years, right now I’m uploading videos from the last few 9 months of working on a cruise ship as a dancer and it’s so demanding I feel like I need to be doing so much better than I am, but one foot I front of the other! ✨
Great video I have experienced this on my Food Entrepnure channel. I have LOADS of ideas but also running my 6 online businesses and created content and consulting it has caught up to me to. I LOVE what i do but it can be draining. Thanks for the video. I have grown my channel with MANY of your tips thanks again .
dealing with one right now (2 babies and RUclips) it's real! I am super new and trying to grow. Thanks for this video
Its definitely difficult as a new RUclipsr (Noobtuber), managing a full time job, education, family and still trying to create content... but it’s a passion and we make time for things we are passionate about. So far, I’m still on top of it but only because I script/plan my videos down to the shot way in advance. I’ve been here for one month lol
This was great and very informative 💯
I am barely starting so I haven't faced burnout. This is some incredible advice to remember as my channel grows.🌻🙂
A lot of these people fail on the one, most important element to success. You don't go into business to make money. Yes, you heard me right. You go into business to identify and satisfy wants and needs. Money is a byproduct.
There were days when I was almost ready to give up on my RUclips channel, Facebook Page and other social media platforms but there's still this flicker of hope that maybe one day my socmed platforms will generate more subscribers, views, followers and engagement. Have to hone my skills more, too. Thanks for all the invaluable takeaways! 😍🔥♥️
Happy you love it Sean, cause I can see around your eyes that you were tired during this shoot. You inspire bro!!
Such a pertinent video, boys. This virus has eliminated my pipeline of work, slowly growing a channel, moving places. Lots to do, lots of question marks and generally a bit unproductive (probably due to a bit of overwhelm). Some solid tips in here. 🤘
I’ve been working on my channel for 15 months now and the lack of growth is exhausting.
definitely needed to hear this. I am in the thick of recognizing “I need help.” as a business owner, you wear the hat of an entire company.
7 years of moral and sexual harassment led to a very deep burnout and PTSD. I am still on sick leave bekoz I can neither read or write, eat or grocery shop on my own. I had 2 children and the only bread winner. They had to eat so I kept going until they got older and started to work and left home. Then I collapsed. In the hospital they managed to mix up big doses of medication and I ended in a minor coma and had a near death experience. I was given the choice to stay or go back and I chose to came back. Soooo much love ❤️ and Parts of me wanted to stay, the other wanted back to do whatever it is I needed to do on this earth plane. A blessing in disguise. I lost 20 pounds bekoz I could not eat and slept on my friends couch for a year, she took care of me and ended up in a depressing herself. Now I am living in the present moment, I stopped making plans bekoz I could not keep my promises to show up. My social life got down sized and my employer who could not deal with the harassment issues for years is pretending that work had nothing to do with it. Every day is a blessing even if some days are faaaar tooooo difficult. I rest when tired. Still only eat with company and still can not be in public places alone.
I just started my channel few weeks ago and it’s good to hear this as early as now. Thanks for talking about this topic.
Thanks for this tips. I just started a month ago and I can’t deny this. I can acknowledge I have improved my photography editing and improving on camera too
Great video today. I find it easy to burnout within doing youth ministry’s and trying to run multiple media channels on my own
Awesome vid! Great info!! Saving this video as a resource for later rewatch 👍
I think this is great advice for those who are trying to build a huge empire via RUclips. For most of us, we are not trying to get to such a level we need a team to manage our channel. What we need to know is how not to burn out with a channel that has not had success or is at the point where we have success and can actually work full time and make a salary equivalent to working another kind of job. I went a year and a half basically building the channel and not earning a living. Now, three years in, I am earning a living. But, I work full-time and I have to manage the channel alone. I do NOT want to build it to the point of having a big business and being a CEO. I like working independently and have no plans to change that. I may never make huge money, but I am okay with doing what I love and earning enough so that I don’t need to quite and go get a different job.
So, what do I do to prevent burnout? I also have to balance my life. I need to not get overwhelmed by comments, emails, negativity, and the amount of work I have to do to keep going. One thing I have decided for myself is that I do not edit. I hate editing. I do all my videos and LIVES straight through. Some people don’t like this but many do because they find that I am very real and not produced. This works for me and cuts work time down. For those who edit, I guess one must learn how to edit more efficiently. Comments, well, don’t get bogged in them. Emails? You don’t owe everyone a long response or any response. Decide what is worth doing that gives you 90% of your success and don’t waste time doing 90% of what really isn’t helping.
After that, don’t stress so much, enjoy your work, enjoy family, friends, hobbies and travel, so that life is worth more than work. Good luck!
I got burned out last year ... even got SICK 😷 OVER IT . I actually had to scale back went from posting every week to every other . My platform actually thanked me. I learned they could not keep up with my content . Best lesson ever ! #lifebalance
Yes have experienced a burnout and i have just begun!! Because i do it all..am solo and learning and developing at the same time ..but i so love creating these videos but by the end of one upload i actually need to take a break!! And so am still finding my consistency! Thank you for the tips for they help me to continue to do my best and think from different angles.
Loved this video! Balancing YT and life is a legitimate juggle! Wish I had an editor lol
So true! The closest I got to burn out was when I did VLOGMAS this past December. I treated it like finals week in school. But, on New Year's Eve I was completely over it and wondered if I wanted to keep going with my page. That was when I decided to treat my page more like I treat my business and schedule filming, editing, and posting. It has seriously helped. While I don't see myself doing VLOGMAS again, I learned a lot from it.
Oh Man! I'm in burnout right now. It's a struggle to create a new video. It happened when RUclips raised the bar for creators to 1,000 subscribers and 4,000 watch time hours. There is a segment of small creators who love a small niche and hitting 4,000 hours will be impossible. I have 1,600+ subs and not all of them come back and they don't un-sub. Other monetizing methods have failed. So without a monetization path it becomes a HUGE struggle for something I love. So the hunt is on for another niche to try and get the spark back.
Thanks for this video! I never imagined how much work being a RUclipsr meant before I got started. Loving the platform and the opportunities it gives us though!
Same mate! It was a big shock to me how much is actually involved 😄
@@aboutmindset3218 Indeed - if only people knew!
Strike a balance, love what you do and do what you love ❤️. There’s nothing as fun as having fun and making money out of it.
So many great nuggets in this video. Near the end Sean talks about investing your money, my one comment to all RUclipsrs is to invest in yourself! Spending money to better yourself and better the business is critical for growth. Take big financial risks in the business and be more conservative in your personal spending. As always, great work Sean, thank you!
Totally is real. We've experienced it a few times. It's only been one year for us (we have two channels - one in English and the other in Spanish) and the amount of time and effort is crazy to anyone who's watching us struggle...but we know it's worth it and for a greater cause ❤️
Thank you Think Media for all the videos you give us! So much knowledge, wisdom and support we gain! It’s all appreciated at the end of the day!!
I never think about burnout cuz all i want is to show and see myself growing in a good or bad ways,im sure there are some people will learn about my life maybe soon cuz i am learning every single things in youtube.Your right,why burning out brcause most of us want to earn money (no offense) not thinking to put more heart to make a good content. Make it happy healthy stress free and just keep going and have fun.
nice episode, thank you Sean, thank you all!
This is soooo valuable. I listened adamantly for the entire video, this was so relevant to me where I am right now with my channel. Thank you!
I started only a month ago... got plenty of good advices from your Channel. Thank you 🙏 . Love the audible “RUclips secrets” too.. 👍👍👍
Thanks for the feedback Trisha! Appreciate you.
love it ! Def have felt a burn out over the last year because of sponsors cutting my pay and got discouraged with all the work i put in but in the end gotta hold your value high and keep innovating yourself xo
Nice work fellas. I think the last tip on reinvesting is so vital to growth and efficiency. Power of leverage has helped me tremendously amongst my businesses. Great work Sean 🤙😎
Great insight. Thanks for this!
This is by far the best video I've seen on how to really be a creator. Great job team!
it is honestley really tough for me, i always check my channel lose a sub, see other channels in my game shooting up. I am creating a video every day and love it when i record it but then i just get extremelty tired to just have my channel growth going down and not up. It makes me feel like quitting and kind of making me depressed. Really tough on me and getting emotional and starting to struggle. have not had the chance to watch this yet but really hope it will help. Thank you!!
I think the biggest hurdle that new RUclipsrs and small RUclipsrs like myself are going through that everybody does in the beginning is the *refining* what you do, what you're talking about, and how you're doing it.
You feel like you're almost constantly Reinventing yourself in a way and that, right there, can be the biggest exhaustion and burnout factor in the beginning and that's where a lot of people give up.
Reinventing yourself and refining yourself as a RUclipsr is the biggest exhaustion point.
Keeping it simple is probably the best method and advice.
I’m starting to feel the burnout! And I think it’s because I’m not being as patient as I need to be in seeing growth. Also, I or someone in my family is always sick this time of year, so I’m just tired! Thanks for the encouragement and tips!
Thanks for the advice Man U help people a lot keep up the good. Vids
My plan is in place now to execute. upload 5 days a week so that's Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday, that gives me 2 days to think about ideas maybe every +2M new merch? Or collectables? Gaming ideas, and so much more😃🏆
I was pretty close to it but your video helped a lot. Thank you.
Also, could you give more tips on how to choose or hire a team for a beginner? I wanna hire an editor but can't decide how to choose, or how much to spend on it since I'm a small RUclipsr.
Thanks for sharing 😎
Great video!! thanks for all the help on RUclips! Also who else is actually really happy that he hit 1 mill subscribers CONGRATS!!
Absolutely timely for me. I'm having the same process now but I will be back to the circle as I'm passionate with what I'm doing now. Thanks for the tips and I learned indeed. 👍
Definitely perfectionism contributes to burnout... comparison is the thief of joy!
I needed to hear this because I’ve started posting twice a week on my channel and it’s so difficult sometimes
Being a RUclipsr is fun and exciting💚💚💚💚💚
I don’t feel burned out yet, I just feel overwhelmed sometimes to have to post a video and I’m not doing it as often as I should, I guess because I need to believe in myself more and be my own cheerleader and just go for it 🙌🏻 I’ll never be perfect and I have to be ok with that and just have fun and create!
My burn out is to keep some energy after my full time job to keep my ideas and get it done but i just relax and flow at my own pace and stay true to my message wich is positivity
Great information. I appreciate you and the other folks sharing this insight. -keith
You are my go to for everything RUclips ! Thank you Sean 🙌🏻
So here's my question-- I do it all on my own as I am a small channel only a few months old. Any advice, as I do editing, thumbnails, research, content etc all by myself. How do I manage all of this on my own without burn out and at one point do you think it's important to hire people to help?
Very encouraging Sean and 👍 smashed! RUclips is VERY much hard work. I don't think I've encountered burn out per say, but I have allowed other things to distract me from creating content in the past. I have now changed my routine to fix that. I'm guessing everyone has a certain amount they would like to earn regularly before investing any extra they make, so I need to give that some serious thought. Thank you 👊
Yeah! I am facing burnouts but I won't give up! Let's Play Together Life!!
The experience which I had about burnout concern is about the perfection in creating good quality videos while keeping up on a weekly basis. Thanks for letting all creators know that the burnout is real.
Great Video ! I think we need to have Passion and Work Ethics and most importantly Patience and Consistency before even stepping into RUclips Journey. WISH EVERYONE SUCCESS ( MUCH LOVE ).💝💝💝💝💝💝
Nice Video! I'm burnt most of the time. As a one-man-band, I'm starting to learn to concentrate on (Simple) creativity and avoiding a perfectionistic mindset.
I have only 150 subscribers and I can already relate to this. Part of me wants to get more, part of me is very anxious it could happen. I already get a lot questions and comments, I really wonder how burnt out people must be, that get a million times more - HORROR, my heart is racing when I even think about this.
This is refreshing. Just at the 1 month mark & exhausted.
Ive been burnt out for roughly a year and i hate doing my youtube channel but i dont want to waste away all the work ive done. Its so annoying..
Nice video really helpful.... Thumbs up guys....
This is inspiring. Yes, I just start my channel, still a tiny one. But watching this at my first stage, at least I can prepare myself what I might come in the future. Thank you.
RUclips can not be your main business. It has to be your free advertising channel for whatever it is that you are really selling.
Hell ya Sean! 4:45! Have the leadership and management skills! Working on the channel and the editing and in front of the camera but your videos help! Much love! Joey B
great tips here, I never knew how much work goes into craeting until I started creating myself!!!
I’m not even close! I’ll never quit or give up, it’s in my blood!
