There are three lessons I’ve learned that I’m taking into 2020 and I feel like they might help some others as well!
WORK ON ONE VIDEO AT A TIME
Throughout 2019 I over-saturated myself into not doing anything. I would constantly have ideas for 3-5 videos floating around in my head and I would jump back and forth between them and scratch my head on which I should do and it would result in me never actually making ANY of them. Narrow your focus! Pick ONE video and make it! Then, when that’s done, pick another (ONE) video and make that! Which leads me into my second lesson…
NOT EVERY VIDEO IS GOING TO BE A VIRAL BANGER
One of the biggest things that held me back from creating in 2019. I constantly kept flip flopping back and forth between so many video ideas at one time because I was trying to decide which would be the most viral, which would be the biggest banger that the most people would click on and I would end up doing nothing. Don’t expect for every video to be the hottest shit, sometimes, it’s just a video and good practice… just pick something, ANYTHING! and make it.
DO SOMETHING EVERYDAY
Force yourself to do something every day!!! Whether you’re filming one segment, editing one clip or writing one paragraph of a script. Allot yourself one hour or 30min and dedicate that time to doing SOMETHING that will progress you. You can spare 30min a day and it will add up.
Obviously doing more is better, but if you struggle with motivation, start small and just make sure every day has even a little bit of progress in it.
Anyways… that’s the list! I hope it sparks some thought or motivation or helps some people.
Good luck in 2020 everybody
