Don't Forget Why You Started DTube!

in video •  7 years ago  (edited)


It's all too easy to lose perspective when you try to make a living doing what you love. Whether its blogging, photography, or in this case, DTube. As soon as there's money to be made from your creative work it can be easy to stop thinking about it as having fun and doing what you love, and start thinking of it as, well... "Work". Don't forget that just because you can make money doing this doesn't mean you have to treat it like any other job and force yourself to do it even if you're miserable. If you're not having fun, what's the point of even doing this instead of just having a standard job? By all means, put in the effort! Just don't forget to have fun along the way.

It sure is fun You are 100% right and it's easy to loose track of your purpose. If you create with purpose nothing else matters. Everything will just flow.

Sorry I didn't see this sooner! Thanks for the comment man! Too true!

God bless dtubers and their good to the community

Thank you! I'm trying anyway.

True about the fun, I wonder if you had fun on your vlog today, hope ya did, haha.

Thanks Kevin! I almost always do, but this will be a nice reminder for me too in case I forget.

Mate I couldn’t agree with you more. If you’re not having fun life can be pretty boring

Thanks! It really can, and that just makes me more grateful to be here doing what I love.

Thank you, bro, for this motivating speech, my man as it's so true man, unlike YouTube where everything is just soo forced, fake and not fun! It really did pump me up! <3

Thanks man! I'm glad it helped!

Powerful man, extrinsic motivation($) can play a role but I feel if that's the primary driver it will almost always result in watered down content. That hoodie is hella dope too.

Thanks Luke! I agree, you see that all the time on YouTube. I love this hoodie too, a buddy gave it to me for my birthday.
