My Experience | Encouragement For Discouraged YouTubers

Hello my friends! I've feeling kind of discouraged over my YouTube channel for a while. (I'm guessing that if you're reading this, perhaps you're in the same boat? I just want to let you know that it's going to be okay!) I was feeling like my videos just sucked; that they weren't professional enough, helpful, or even that entertaining. I felt like nobody was watching. But then I started going through some REALLY old videos of mine (and removing some of them), and I realized by watching them just how much I've progressed from that, the days where the lighting and my editing skills weren't that good (hellooo: shaky camera & voice over feedback, anyone?!), where I could only upload up to 30 seconds, or where the lighting was bad, and the quality wasn't that clear, and sometimes I didn't even bother to add music (or let's face it.. get off my bed for a freaking vlog!) I realized that my videos are much better today, and I also realized that they will be even better in the future. Being a YouTuber is a work in progress. I'm always progressing, AND I always WILL if I keep at it. No matter how many people try to bring me down, or used to try to bring me down, I won't give up, because making and producing videos is something that I'm PASSIONATE about, and if you love something, whether it's a person or a job or whatever, YOU never let it go or abandon it. So if you're ever down on yourself about your skills or something that you love doing, just remember that you're getting better each day, and you're better than you were yesterday; practice, practice! You may not be there yet, but you're sure as hell closer than you were yesterday, my friends! Don't give up, and I definitely won't be giving up! Stay your beautiful self! ~Amy
