If you’ve ever pondered the idea of launching a YouTube channel but hesitated, I want to share some advice that could inspire you to take that leap.
1. Embrace the Freedom of Indifference
Don’t let the fear of judgment hold you back. The truth is, if you are genuinely trying to help or entertain others, most of your audience will appreciate your efforts.
2. Fail Fast, Learn Faster
Shift your mindset from fearing failure to wanting to fail fast. The more you release imperfect videos, the quicker you can learn what works and what doesn’t—and before you know it, you'll be producing higher-quality content that resonates with your audience.
3. Focus on People, Not Algorithms
Make videos for people, not for machines. Focus on the message you want to share and aim to create value. Authentic content will naturally attract viewers, fostering a community of people who appreciate your honesty over clickbait.
Take the Leap
If you’re reading this and considering starting your own YouTube channel, take a moment to reflect on your fears and ambitions. Ask yourself:
- Are you okay with remaining stagnant in your current situation?
- Does the idea of failing audibly in front of an audience hurt more than the thought of not trying at all?
You have the choice between staying within the comfort of your bubble or taking the risk to discover your true potential. If you have that feeling inside urging you to share a message, then it’s your time to act.

So gear up, grab your tripod (or just your smartphone), and make those first few videos. You’ll be glad you did. Happy creating!
