    Starting is the hardest part because we often want to have a direction decided. But we should just GO (create) and let the direction find itself. You don't have to be perfect, and most things you do will improve in quality as you keep doing them. Great video man, thank you for the reminder.

      I know my editing is far from perfect and I have so much room to grow. But by simply deciding to just create anyway I've already made so much more of an impact than I could have guessed. I'm so happy I just made the decision, the skills will grow with me. I hope this video is able to inspire others to do the same. Thank you for the support!

    I couldn't agree more with this. aspiring to do something not out of obligation, but for yourself is the best feeling you can ever have. I wish more people thought like this.

    • @Thalnose
      @Thalnose  Před 20 dny

      It's far and away one of the most fulfilling things you can do. Worth every second of the time put into it.

  • @CompleteAnimation
    @CompleteAnimation Před 23 dny +1

    Totally agree that creating things is worth it.
    I started writing a webcomic last year. It's not very high quality, but it's something that I make, and something that only I would ever make. It's the single most creatively fulfilling thing I've ever done. Even more fulfilling than my CZcams channel that is monetized and pulls in a tidy amount every month.

    • @Thalnose
      @Thalnose  Před 23 dny

      It definitely doesn't have to pull in a bunch of money to be fulfilling. If it's something that strikes a cord with you then it's worth it, simple as that.

  • @TheDanishGuyReviews
    @TheDanishGuyReviews Před 22 dny +2

    I finally got some unique motivation to create recently: I asked online about an animation from my teenage years, and nobody knew it. So I'm doing my best to hand-draw it right now, and I'll eventually voice it and put the recreation in a video on CZcams to get a wider range of eyes on it to eventually, possibly, finding this lost media from so long ago.

    • @Thalnose
      @Thalnose  Před 22 dny

      That's so cool! Good luck!

    Dude, I needed this. Im struggling in school right now and I've always wanted to create something I could be proud of, but I never found myself content or proud with the stuff I have made. I am worried I won't do good in school because of my mental struggles, but my creative process helped me feel happy. It's my source of escape from stress and hard work, people always tell me that trying to escape all this mentally draining stuff is bad and will eventually affect my life, but I don't really want to escape from it all, I've come to realize recently that I just want something to look forward too, Something to call my own and brag about and be proud of, I've always wanted some source of motivation but everything I've created never delivers the motivation I want.
    I couldn't thank you enough for giving a reminder to me, and everybody else who ends up watching this video, a boost of the urge to create, I've wanted to write a book, and I've wanted to try and make a game, and I've even wanted to make beautiful art, But I've never really dived into it too much. So I thank you, and I hope that your channel goes far as well, you seem passionate, and I will continue to watch your videos if I can.

    I really needed this video on a personal level especially when considering analysis paralysis and this intangible concern I have with starting to publish my work and hobbies online. Thanks for writing this pitch and for openly sharing it, I'm very early but quite excited in having the opportunity to see this grow in such a lively and organic way!

    • @Thalnose

    It is WORTH IT!! It gives me something to strive for, to feel like I've accomplished something besides just living. Godspeed, man!

  • @henryhamernik4794
    @henryhamernik4794 Před 24 dny +6

    Dude this really means a lot to me right now. I’ve been working on a game recently but I’ve felt a sense of emptiness creep up similar to the one I had before I had a creative outlet. This video really reinvigorated the spark I needed to keep working on it. It even made me tear up a little lol. Thanks for sharing your experience. After watching some of your other videos I obviously described. You’re definitely gonna hit it big!

    • @Steiveplays
      @Steiveplays Před 24 dny

      Your art deserves to be in the world. Keep going. For the betterment of the world. Keep going.

    • @Thalnose
      @Thalnose  Před 24 dny +1

      Thank you so much for the kind words and the support! Keep on creating, it can be difficult but it's so worth being able to look at that piece and say "I did that". I've dabbled the smallest amount in game development and know just from the tiny amount I've done that it's a hard hard journey to create a game. Being able to create one in general is a huge feat. Keep on making that game!

  • @Steiveplays
    @Steiveplays Před 24 dny +2

    Watching this while working on the game I've been making for close to a year now, after writing on the novel I've been writing for close to 5 years. Create. I am begging you, if you are on the fence, create something. Make something with your hands. Write. Do SOMETHING. I beg of you.

    • @Thalnose

  • @circushouseproductions3662

    This video got randomly recommended to me and I was really impressed, I thought this was by a channel with several thousands of subscribers by how well made it is, but when I saw your sub count in the video and on actual CZcams I was pleasantly surprised. I've been burnt out on trying to do CZcams since I haven't found what I wanted to do, but I may try it up again and rebranding to what feels more like I want to do as an artist, new sub and I'll be following your journey! :)

    • @Thalnose
      @Thalnose  Před 24 dny

      Thank you so much! The support is so appreciated, and I totally think you should continue to pursue going after CZcams. Just create what you want to create first and foremost. I think if there's passion inside it, somebody's going to find it.

  • @Hoopryfien
    @Hoopryfien Před 24 dny

    I've definitely been feeling this way moreso in the past year which is why I started trying to pursue art and also just do more video editing in general because i want to find more outlets to express my ideas. The message you're aiming to express is very well conveyed here even if the video is short

    • @Thalnose
      @Thalnose  Před 24 dny

      Thank you so much! Creating is so important to the human experience, and I think it's just so important to allow ourselves to tap into that creativity. I'm glad you're pursuing that for yourself!

  • @TomaszRyszkowski
    @TomaszRyszkowski Před 24 dny

    Damn I loved the video! I have the pleasure of my work being editing videos for CZcams channels that i actually enjoy watching, so it is amazing because i can literally live off my creative work. I always get really hyped when a new video comes out and so far i've read all comments under all of "my" videos. That said i hate how CZcams uses literal algorithms to rate people's creative work.

    • @Thalnose
      @Thalnose  Před 24 dny +1

      It is unfortunate we all have to live under the algorithm in some respect, but I do think it's amazing that we can put our creations into the world at all and see the impact they make. I'm glad you enjoyed the video!

  • @sl1ppey
    @sl1ppey Před 24 dny

    Just commenting because I wanted to say I really appreciated your comment on my short games video the other day. I've been struggling with creating for my own sake the last 6 months, which is why my output has been so slow. Getting wrapped up in the numbers and the opportunity costs of putting so much time and effort into something that may not yield any tangible reward other than personal satisfaction has been paralyzing for me. Your comment and this video were nice reminders to just do it anyway. Hope to see more from you soon, and if you ever just wanna chat about making stuff, feel free to reach out, you seem like a cool person.

    • @Thalnose
      @Thalnose  Před 24 dny

      I totally understand, even just starting out it's easy to already make a video and think "will this perform like the rest". But focusing on why I really created it and my passion for just making something really helps to feel proud of it despite however it performs. I'll definitely try to reach out, it would be great to chat about this kinda stuff.

  • @Biglulu
    @Biglulu Před 24 dny +1

    One of the things I struggle with the most with creating something is figuring out how to motivate myself when it's very likely I won't make any money from it. If I'm not getting paid for it, it feels like a waste of time to me, even if it's enjoyable.

    • @Thalnose
      @Thalnose  Před 24 dny +1

      I totally understand this, and it's hard to separate the desire to make money, from the desire to create in general. And look, I can't lie that there isn't a part of me that hopes this CZcams thing can become something more than a hobby, I'm not immune to it either. The thing that keeps me going though is the sense of pride I can find in myself after creating something. It's so much easier to be confident in myself and my abilities when there's a tangible product I can look at and say "yeah, I made that". Hopefully one day you can find something you can create that will give you that feeling, it's a pretty big deal when you find it.

    @brew9826 Před 24 dny

    As someone who creates a lot, this resonates super hard with me. Creating is an integral part of my life and i genuinely don't know what I would do if I wasn't. I'm still working things out when it comes to everything else, but creating is one thing I know I can rely on :)

    • @Thalnose

    Yeah, i thought like that, until i completely destroyed myself and ruined my mental health beyond salvation, just because i wanted to be able to create something, as result i ended up completely mentally dead and suffering from existential crisis and agony 24/7 now and unable to exist without constantly numbing my brain by consuming some media or playing games

    • @Thalnose
