Over the weekend I happened to glance at my Youtube Studio app and saw that I was about to hit the big 2000, a fact I audibly exclaimed so my work colleague asked me if I was ok. I then decided I should do something to celebrate it, so I popped up a poll on my community tab. I figured I'd do either Dank Christian Memes Part Two or Something about beer, maybe r/bartenders.
Today I've popped the poll on Twitter too, maybe get some interest.
But crikey, it's a strange feeling knowing that that many people think that my videos are worth a watch. I felt the same way when I hit 100 subs, and 1000. THAT many people want to listen to me waffle about my favourite things?
I'm not going to lie, I've found content creation a bit tough recently. This isn't something like burnout or anything like that, I've been, in all honesty, not in a good place when it's come to motivation. Either for content creation or anything else for that matter. I won't get into the boring details here, but needless to say it's made a dent in my usually chill demeanor.
So when I look and see that one of the hobbies I have has bourne some fruit, I have to be honest, it did light up a spark in me. I'd had a fairly crap week, but here was one positive thing. And sometimes all you need is one positive thing to turn spark into flame, into fire, into blaze. This and a couple of other equally little positive things really make me feel like I'm starting to get my mojo back.
I don't feel like I can take on the world, but I sure can feel myself getting back to normal. All because people I've never met have stopped by my little channel and decided that they were going to stick around. If you are one of those people, thank you.
So let's wrap this up. I've got a ton of video ideas for CT, and now that I'm starting to feel myself again, they might actually get off the page and into reality, because well, about a village worth of people are interested in what I have to say. So until then, go grab yourself a drink and we'll ask some questions.
