Alllll of this! I have been struggling with the idea of social media as a trojan horse for my writing, and it's almost like a call to con people into being interested in what you do when you can just...be writing and devoting yourself to ideas that are much bigger than what's meant for the people who infinitely scroll as a means to no end. It's been my biggest thorn on this journey and this video confirms that if a tree falls in the woods, it fell and needs no confirmation of it falling.
It's better to make 1 video a year that people will remember for a long period of time than force yourself to push content on a constant basis. I'm not sure how people out there manage to do it so consistently without getting burnt out.
'Art is only valuable when other people see it.' UGH so true and why i stopped filming for a long time. I am still struggling to get back on my youtube and I think I need to follow what you are doing which is rules not routine, really epic video and achieved the purpose which is to inspire!
Worst thing you can do is let your own rules kill off your enjoyment of making art. That is a very hypocritical thing for me to be saying but that doesn't make it less true. It just means I make bad decisions...
how does this only have 73 likes this is amazing! i wish you well- and i completely relate. im a visual artist and it feels like all my peers are doing everything they can to be seen on social media- sacrificing their mental health and projects they actually wnat to do to keep up with upload schedules, participating in trends when they dont want to etc. i"ve made a decision with myself that im jsut gonna post things on my small blog when i feel like it. nobody really sees it anyway, and somtimes its hard not to internalise that. but i think ive figured out the trick to it. there are a small handful of people i know to be enthusiastic about my work. There is no point busting your guts to appease a huge following (to me at least. but then again, money and income is not involved in my scenario like it is with youtube). To me, I upload things only if i want to. and If i can make that small group of people happy to see it as a bonus then that makes my day all the best
subbed and liked, good luck with/on this video hitting the algorithm. I just found this channel after being recommended this video but have only watched this one (so far). This is some very clean work.

Felt this way about music making for almost a couple of years now. I think I've finally reached a breakthrough though
