Hi H! This is Jay Jay Ghatt! Welcome back to my channel! So today we're going to be talking about staying
consistent as a youtube content creator and specifically I'm going to give you five things
to think about and four of them are mental things, one of them is an actual productivity
tool that you can use today and so let's get right into it after the short little break
okay hey welcome back to my channel, so if you are a content creator on Youtube there's a high chance
that you got into Youtube because you already had an audience on Instagram, Snapchat, Tik Tok
maybe Facebook and someone from that community told you, hey you should take your show on the road
to larger platform, that being youtube or you're like me a content quarantine creator who doing the
decided that you need to actually perhaps you know um take that Youtube channel you've had on
the shelf, off the shelf and could and be focused and consistent on being a Youtube content creator
What you need to do is first stop, pause, do not pass go, and have first a mindset shift, your
mindset shift has need to consider the fact that um one Youtube is a marathon, not a sprint which
you probably heard before. It's gonna take a long time for you to grow as a creator um you might
have seen people in your social circle in your social media circle um get on Youtube and have
explosive growth and believe that you have the same results but that's not necessarily the case
and so once you have that mindset shift and you get prepared for the long haul, that'll help you
stay consistent and you'll be less discouraged by not seeing the growth that you anticipated.
The second thing you need to do with your mindset is also consider the fact that you now know that
as a Youtuber, you have to be all the things you have to be a creator, a market researcher, the
videographer, the cinematographer, the set designer , the costumer, the makeup artist, the editor, the
promoter, you have to be all the things so that's the first thing is have that mindset shift. The
second mental thing that you need to consider is to stop comparing yourself to other creators
there are two types of people you're gonna create compare yourself to: one is the fellow youtuber
that started around the same time as you did and you look up one day and you see that they're so
much farther past you and you're wondering what the heck happened and two: the creator who's larger
who's in your niche but you swear that you do the same type of content, you're the same quality video,
and you're more dynamic than them but they're growing and they're so big! How come they get all
this audience? Stop the comparison game because there are different factors in every different
Youtuber maybe someone's full time and you are part-time, maybe someone has more research and
support than you do so and then also -- as I share in this video --there may be some superficial factors
that may allow some creators who start with you to grow faster than you are, so with that knowledge
that you know everyone's fighting their own battle, on their own journey, that's going to help you so
that's the second thing, stop the comparison game and that's going to help you be more consistent !
The third thing you need to do is have an honest conversation with yourself.
Honest conversation about two things: the first things about your cadence, you may see
other channels and other creators producing two to three content pieces of content each week, you
might want to follow suit. The problem with that is: one, you may burn yourself out and forget it and be
like i'm not doing this especially when I see my results and that caused you to be not consistent.
The second thing is Youtube, the ai, the machine, um may not get a chance to promote your one
video when you're producing another video so you could be actually hurting the video you've produced
before and the third thing: your audience! That's the come to =Jesus moment you need to have about
your cadence! I mean the second honest conversation you need to have with yourself has to do with your
niche! Now you might have decided to create a certain type of content because it's popular
and it's getting a lot of views what happens after a while you may actually resent it because you're
not really that passionate about it, however that's the one that people watch so at that
point that come to Jesus moment that honest conversation you mean to have with yourself
is like let me find a way to create some sort of balance second aspect of that honest conversation
you need to have with yourself about your Youtube channel is that you have to be creating content
that you enjoy and also question yourself as to why are you a Youtuber so that is the second aspect
of number three the honest conversation you need to have with yourself now number four the last
mental thing that you need to do is actually start being committed to your youtube channel the same
way that you would be committed to a job your client your customer a patient your boss your
parents your professor your teacher someone who you owe deliverable to regularly so for
example if you had a school project or want work assignment that was due at 9 00 pm on monday
and someone called you up at seven o'clock and said hey let's go for drinks would you say yeah
sure why not knowing you have that deadline no you would say i got something else to do so if monday
and 9 pm is your day to create content and someone calls you for drinks treat your youtube like you
would someone who you owe a deliverable to and pass on those drinks similarly if the dentist
office calls and say we have a four o'clock on tuesday are you available for your semi-annual
appointment and you know that's your time to edit video ask for another appointment and be committed
to your youtube channel so that's the fourth mental thing the last and final thing is actually
a practical thing essentially have a workflow system you're more likely to be consistent if you
have a list of things so you don't have to carry around the weight and burden of oh my god other
create content oh my god i have to edit that video if you already have it written down and perhaps in
a paper journal a three three subject binder or four subject notebook or something like that the
first could be like ideas the second could be a checklist of what you need to do after you publish
your video the third could be a list of you know places you market and promote your video with
some sort of checklist or system i'm telling you and help you guide your way through the creation
process alternatively there's software there are apps mobile desktop that you can actually download
and have access to that actually being also another place where you can track your workflow
your checklist of things you have to do ones that i use and recommend are monday.com which i'm using
currently i also use asana and i um also i did a video where i did a collaboration where one of my
fellow youtube creator did a walkthrough of click up so those are workflow systems that help you
manage your workflow and every all the different steps you need to go from thinking about a youtube
video to the process of creating it to editing it to creating a thumbnail and and so forth and so
