    Been here since rn 15.000 subs and totally can see why you're growing steadily. You produce good content and every of your videos that I clicked, I watched till the end. I can't say that about every RUclipsr. Keep up the good work, Aivars.

    @Aivars - thank you for your Blogs.
    Hello from Estonia :)
    I am 33 and I put an eye on your Planning system a year ago, and now I am implementing it to my workflows since I have now some space for that.
    At 30+ you understand that Persistence is the key - so thank you once again for your blogs, it motivates me to power up my Persistence with some simple methodologies - and also inspireы me to be persistent :)
    Best, Nikolay

    Great video, Aivars! The other day I was watching a Sean Allen video about freelancing from 4 years ago and you were in the chat for his live stream. You have come a long way and happy to have found your channel because it is really inspiring for me! Congratulations on 25K!

    Regarding your question. "Should I leave your Indie programming, and work only as a freelance?"
    I would say that It all depends of how much stress having two jobs gives you vs the rewards of having something that it´s is really your child. It is curious, I am interested in pursuing a career as a Program Manager, but you left it, to be programmer ;-)

    Congratulations on this milestone! On to 50.000 !?
    I was wondering, how do you deal with the negative side of being in the spotlight? The haters, what other people think of you etc? I struggle with the last one, always fearfull of what other people might think of me 🤔It's why I stopped but I'd like to overcome it and get back to it. Advice? Tips?

    • @AivarsMeijers
      @AivarsMeijers  Год назад +1

      Thanks! Yep, 50K is next milestone in the way to 100K
      idk if that age or I just matured, but in about 40s I stoped to care at all about haters and doing whatever I found interesting.
      Why should I spend my energy to worry about haters? Sometimes I'm checking their profiles to see what do they created and guess what, so far I didn't see single video from person who published anything on RUclips.

      @@AivarsMeijers Well, that leaves me 5 more years before that kicks in 😛 But you're right. 99,99% of the time it's from people who are nowhere near doing what we want to do. I'll try to keep that in mind, thanks!

    I love how your "co worker" is always with you. Showing up, taking action is already above and beyond the majority. Most are consumers and have no desire to actually take action. Starting anything always feels like a failure.... until it's not. you and I were born with the "how hard can it be?" gene and try many things! Congrats on 25k Aivars!!

    • @AivarsMeijers
      @AivarsMeijers  Год назад

      Yep, showing upp and taking action is the hardest part, start something is relatively easy.
