This truly resonates with me. As a content creator, maintaining motivation is often challenging. Breaking down tasks into manageable sections and setting deadlines have been my go-to strategies. But what really helps me stay motivated is using an all-in-one tool like Boost App Social. It streamlines my content creation process, which leaves more room for creative thinking and planning.
@@logan.stewart Boost App Social simplifies the content creation process. It's essentially an 8-in-1 toolkit that includes AI tools, story templates, highlight covers and more. It simplifies the process and helps in maintaining the consistency of my posts.
@@susan_young Couldn't agree more! Boost App has made content creation a breeze for me. From AI tools to story templates, it's all there to help maintain post consistency.
It's a good sight to see motivation being discussed in the actual perspective of a content creator. As a content creator myself, I do feel demotivated sometimes but I just take a deep breath and remind myself why I'm doing this, and it's simply because I LOVE making content!
Thank you for acknowledging that ADHD does make a difference in ability to feel motivated. It would be cool if you hosted someone who does have that mental disability to give tips for us neuro-spicy gamers ❤️
ADHD solidarity. I'm a disabled music streamer (ADHD/Fibromyalgia.) Motivation is a challenge on both counts. It's difficult pushing through physical pain and struggling to not get distracted by a million things instead of hitting go live. Medication has helped a lot. Having a "starting soon" screen has really helped too. I can go live without being on camera right away, which motivates me to tune my guitar, set question of the day, do social media etc etc. People usually pop up in the chat and say hi, so I've immediately got a reason to go to my main screen and start chatting and playing. I find knowing I'll have interactions with my regular audience on Twitch helps motivate me to stream regularly, especially knowing that people are paying money to support the channel. It was very slow getting started though, I nearly quit altogether a bunch of times. I streamed for 6 months before I got affiliate, often streaming to nobody. Much of that was my fault as I was doing pretty boring things like metronome exercises and transcriptions, and it took me a while to get my sound clear and clean. I only just got a decent camera last week after using a Logitech POS webcam for ages. Finding others in the Twitch music community and started collaborating with them helped a lot. My channel really started to grow when I started participating in the community more. I just hit 1k which is a milestone I didn't think I'd get to a year ago. In general the music community is a lot more into helping each other's channels grow than the gaming community in my experience. Every time I go on a music channel and say hi, if they are familiar with my work they shout me out and talk a little about what I do (and I and my mods do the same for them.) Gamers generally seem adverse to even acknowledging that anyone but them is a streamer. I told someone I'd been chatting with for a few weeks on a small (under 10 viewers) gaming channel that I was excited that I finally made affiliate that day and they went off on me. I've since seen a few similar interactions. I don't get it. It seems to mostly be an attitude among smaller gaming streamers. Some larger gaming streamers who are familiar with me always ask me unprompted how the music channel is going and sometimes even raid me or restream me as their break music. It's a pretty big contrast. It has made me stick within the music community more and more. I used to enjoy watching gaming channels but the etiquette difference is too much stress to jump between.
This is so helpful! I’ve heard people talk about it but this format might help a bit. I have ADHD and I struggle to get on and stay on a task. I need those apps to pressure me to get stuff done lol
I needed this video today. Thank you. I’m very new to streaming, having started 3 weeks ago, I have gone live 13 times. The last 3 streams I haven’t picked up any new followers, although I do have some loyal chatters already which is great! I am working on ways to keep my content fresh and exciting as I get closer to Affiliate follower goal! I’m confident that when I next go live it will be my best stream yet! I’m trying not to focus on the follower count and I hide the view counter whilst live. I’m just enjoying learning this new skill and focusing on making every stream more fun and exciting than the next! The followers will come if I keep to schedule and remain positive, I’m sure of it! Thank you For or this video and ALL your videos as they have been huge for me in getting started!
i strugle with burnouts more than lack of motive the way i solve this is i have a note in my desk with all my goals whenever i feel like i want to stop i look at the onte and telll myself if you stop now how are going to achive those ?
Ive been listening to this guy. And Ive gone from 1-2 veiwers to 2-3. Its not that big of a difference, but it made me so happy. Im glad I can just entertain people.
Been watching your stuff for a year and ur channel was a main reason I was motivated to start streaming and making stuff online. Thank you man. This topic if staying motivated was so needed!
im gonna be honest your videos have really helped me out with streaming i went 2 years just been with 1 live viewer which soon made me stop streaming for months but your videos taught me how to be more entertaining, not just to sit there and play or do anything quietly and how to create content. and i like to thank you for your videos they really helped out. keep up the great work man!!
Thank you so much for this video. I truly believe you have to be intrinsically motivated or stubborn to be a successful streamer. As someone intrinsically motivated to create content but not to stream, I sometimes find it hard to hit the "go live" button. I've never heard of the Seinfeld Strategy but I think setting small goals repeatedly will help me out. Thank you again for not only this video but all of them. You have been a huge help!
Holy shit I've needed this for so long. After the first 5 months of streaming and discord drama from trying to network, I've lost all motivation to stream. Thanks a million man..
Thanks for Mind list! What I use for remembering tasks is called a boogie board (5$) , it's an temporary LCD display that works like e-ink (aka Kindle) it just needs a lil power to erase itself. I sometimes show it off on stream too!
Took some advice from an earlier video and watched my whole vod, I had fun, and loved it but did find things I need to work on so thank you for the tip!!
My current personal goal is to post 1 short a day Monday-Friday, so far I have been keeping this up for almost 2 months now. Starting to get a little difficult with more life being thrown at me but I plan on keeping this up! I think worst case I would reduce to to 3 videos a week of Monday Wednesday Friday which I would still feel good about being able to hit that goal every week.
Great video! Consistency and creating habits is something I’m trying to do to help keep my content consistent. You will never get worse at things you do every day!
I recently switched from evening streams to early (so very early) morning streams to accommodate a better work/life balance. So now I stream before work and it's working soooo much better for me. Prior I would sometimes skip out on streaming to spend time with the Mrs, or I'd get held up at work, etc. But now I get it all done before work and get to enjoy the rest of my day. Now if only I wasn't so lazy to do TH-cam and tiktok.
Man this just got recommended to me on a lull period where I havent streamed for 4 days due to just not hitting go live. Ive been steadily growing but I definitely have had a pretty hard time with motivation sometimes. So I appreciate this!
I started streaming in May of this year to keep myself from falling asleep after work. I picked up a capture card and webcam and just started doing it whenever I was feeling tired after the drive home. At first I was just doing it irregularly and didn't really expect to like it. It was more just like a coach on the sidelines to keep me accountable. I do a solid 10+ hours of scheduled streaming in a week alongside my full time job now, where before that would have all been extra sleep in the evenings. I know you say not to have your friends sit in to bump your viewer count, but after I told them I had a stream I was doing, when they jump into chat it starts to feel a lot like the old days in high school or college when we would be playing together almost every night, and we can riff and make more natural jokes together than if I was just streaming and narrating to nobody. I set up a calendar and a list of small goals I'd like to achieve, which was just small stuff that sounds super basic (how to edit scenes, set up streamlabs alerts, etc) but I genuinely had no idea I'd even WANT to learn before I started this. I feel energized by doing it. I actually manage to stay awake quite easily now after 6 months. I've lost a bunch of weight just by virtue of not sleeping after eating dinner. My life feels more regimented and social just because I made a schedule and actually executed it. I'm not worried about getting to affiliate, because it's not really the point, and I'm just learning the jobs at my own pace and trying to expand my ideas beyond just chewing through my video game backlog with challenges and even some art stuff I've been neglecting since graduation as well. but I think this is something I could get good at eventually...
I legit have no idea how you time these videos so well! Every time a new video is up, it's on a problem I'm currently facing and this has been proven for weeks now with some of your recent uploads. Keep up the good work and thank you for the tips as always o7
I saw another person ask this further down in the comments but I wanted to ask it as well, as I'm sure you have a hard time getting to every comment with how big you're getting, but I also know you do your best to try. What was that app for listing you suggested? I tried looking for it and I can't find it, so I'm wondering if I'm mishearing you. Thanks for the great content as always. 😁
Diagnosed and given medication for ADHD... thank you for this video... I'm new in streami g and YT content creation & motivation is among the things I struggle with
i’ve been watching your vids for a long time now, even re watching them over and over. I’m so stuck on what game to play to make content on, im on xbox so i am limited to what i play.
Absolutely true! Something big I've learned from listening to podcasts by Andy Frisella and others, motivation is just a fleeting idea in the end. Habits, discipline, structure and creating those small steps to achieve that bigger goal/task is in my opinion make it or break it. Something I've been trying to consistently do everyday. It's not easy at first, but it does get better with time.
I took a big vacation from streaming since i felt really out of it, knew that if i kept streaming like that it'd be no good, so this is great, thank you so much
I think mind list is IOS only, are there any similar apps that PC users can get? I've looked at Trello, Asana, and Jira but all of their UI's seem overly complicated and for more of a workforce than a single person. Microsoft to do seemed promising and is probably what I'll use in the meantime, the main couple issues I'm currently having with it is when I make a task I can only set it to be one day a week so if I would like it to be a reoccurring task for multiple days I would have to create a duplicate for the other days, that on it's own would be manageable but then when I want something on "My Day" (The main list for that single day) it shows me every reoccurring item even if, it's set for a different day.
Videos help your channel out much more than a single stream does. Try not to shatter the expecations of these that want to show up to your streams but do not beat yourself up if you need to set aside more time to get videos out. Try to think ahead and not schedule streams when you think you have editing that needs to be done.
Having chronic fatigue is a serious problem in terms of motivation and I hate it because I love streaming. Social media is much quicker to create but I hate selling myself lol
Not sure how to help, if I google either of them which you’ve spelt correctly they both come up instantly. The app isn’t crucial though, it’s the concept.
i stream got stable yard to look after, grass to cut, hedges general maintenance these jobs need doing, but i enjoying streaming as a pastime ans sharing games on an evening!! im a Equine riding coach by trade!
just a suggestion, you should make a new twitch channel, keep it secret (hide your face or just dont use cam?) and see how quickly you can grow some average viewers. I know it would be time-consuming for sure but i'm sure a lot of people would like to see that.
Hey guys it is me again with my update. I am now an affiliate on twitch and i have hit 67 followers on twitch and some of my tiktoks are doing quite well but i havent been doing youtube unfortunately since I lack ideas
Any good places to learn video editing for absolute noobs? Every time I motivate myself to learn all I find are videos that assume I have a decent level of understanding 🙃
Simple "101" type videos that teach how to use video editors are usually a good place to start. They give you an idea about how the software itself works which is step 0 to understand how editing in general works
It's time for me, before I can video edit my vods... I have two other video editing jobs to do first. Mon - Tues: LinkedIn Learning/Personal projects Tues - Fri: Stream days Wed - Sat: Work days
Thank you so much for you r teachings, as you see I have devoted a lot of my social media into promoting my channel on Twitch , I have followed several of your vid, got to finish this one. I have upgraded my channel and it would be awesome if you could give your critique ..I did send a message before and tried t edit it anf it was erase so sorry if you get two in a row somehow.........story of my life
Awesome video 👍 stream scheme I'm motivated to do a video on any game when I'm trying to motivate myself to try to do it I end up forgetting it and try to do better I still want to be a content creator and still make my dream come true you think I'm trying to hard or forgetting to set a schedule for it
why not be happy about the 1 viewer ? :) 1>0 the next goals is 3 viewers but keep building 1on1 relationships and ppl will start to stuck more depending on the game/type of streams. Streaming for hours to 0 is truly depressing without getting 1on1 interaction every now and then, but still..it is a part of the game 1 has to go through. different individuals tend to stay for different amount of times on different games on my streams making me truly not talking to my yourself, because if the 1 viewer is even a loyal lurker, u still get no interaction back. PS so shorter stream in the right time but with more energy and ideas might be more impactful than a 8 hour stream of more "nothing" if u get me. i rarely do 6-8 hours streams, but I always end up with less clips and content from them..and less interaction during them. I see 2-4h as a good minimum tho depending on the schedule for the day.
Ive lost motivation only because I dont know what to do. Every idea I have has already been done. What can I do to stand out, what content can I do that is different then the millions of others.
you share similar interests with many people, but your precise mix of influences and experiences is unique. even if you do something similar to someone else, you will be bringing something to the table that is uniquely you. so you might not ever be the BEST in your field, but you may end up contributing in some way that no one else could. or- you COULD be the best in the world, but you’d never know if you didn’t believe it was possible. hope any of that helps, best of luck
I feel this. I worked my way to 97,000 followers on TikTok and then it just kind of stalled this last month no matter what I did and I've started slacking on posting more 😒
I’m just starting on my journey to be a full time streamer and I’m already understanding what you mean. One little set back in my day can throw everything off 🥲

ADHD solidarity. I'm a disabled music streamer (ADHD/Fibromyalgia.) Motivation is a challenge on both counts.

I streamed for 6 months before I got affiliate, often streaming to nobody. Much of that was my fault as I was doing pretty boring things like metronome exercises and transcriptions, and it took me a while to get my sound clear and clean.

shorter stream, more effort into the video before the stream so u do no stress about it during the stream :)
Any good Windows alternatives for the Mindlist app that you mentioned?
Having chronic fatigue is a serious problem in terms of motivation and I hate it because I love streaming. Social media is much quicker to create but I hate selling myself lol

I guess I'll cross that bridge when I come to it. I am not starting 7 days a week or anything though.
The Lack of Motivation was me yesterday, it sucks honestly smh
just a suggestion, you should make a new twitch channel, keep it secret (hide your face or just dont use cam?) and see how quickly you can grow some average viewers. I know it would be time-consuming for sure but i'm sure a lot of people would like to see that.
Hey guys it is me again with my update. I am now an affiliate on twitch and i have hit 67 followers on twitch and some of my tiktoks are doing quite well but i havent been doing youtube unfortunately since I lack ideas
Picture your comfort character and how proud they would be to when you do the stuff you need to do
Me last week in an Eljay stream: "I haven't streamed in almost a month, feelsbad".
>This video comes out.<
I feel personally attacked.
For example i have a 65day streak on duolingo and I wouldnt have that streak If I had like 10days streak and wasnt motivated
Any good places to learn video editing for absolute noobs? Every time I motivate myself to learn all I find are videos that assume I have a decent level of understanding 🙃
Simple "101" type videos that teach how to use video editors are usually a good place to start. They give you an idea about how the software itself works which is step 0 to understand how editing in general works
Thank you reminded me I needed to load the dishwasher
It's time for me, before I can video edit my vods... I have two other video editing jobs to do first.
Mon - Tues: LinkedIn Learning/Personal projects
Tues - Fri: Stream days
Wed - Sat: Work days
I believe in you bro.
Woo!
Thank you so much for you r teachings, as you see I have devoted a lot of my social media into promoting my channel on Twitch , I have followed several of your vid, got to finish this one. I have upgraded my channel and it would be awesome if you could give your critique ..I did send a message before and tried t edit it anf it was erase so sorry if you get two in a row somehow.........story of my life
Most of these things wont work for my ADHD brain but it at least got me thinking about what I could do to help stay motivated so thanks :)
Links for the apps?
Mind list and streaks :)
Awesome video 👍 stream scheme I'm motivated to do a video on any game when I'm trying to motivate myself to try to do it I end up forgetting it and try to do better I still want to be a content creator and still make my dream come true you think I'm trying to hard or forgetting to set a schedule for it
Can’t believe I’ve been missing the pants off step all this time
12 out of 45 videos, adhd engaged
its hard streaming to 1 viewer and staying happy about it
One tip watch it on another device At The same time
why not be happy about the 1 viewer ? :) 1>0 the next goals is 3 viewers but keep building 1on1 relationships and ppl will start to stuck more depending on the game/type of streams.
Streaming for hours to 0 is truly depressing without getting 1on1 interaction every now and then, but still..it is a part of the game 1 has to go through. different individuals tend to stay for different amount of times on different games on my streams making me truly not talking to my yourself, because if the 1 viewer is even a loyal lurker, u still get no interaction back.
PS so shorter stream in the right time but with more energy and ideas might be more impactful than a 8 hour stream of more "nothing" if u get me. i rarely do 6-8 hours streams, but I always end up with less clips and content from them..and less interaction during them. I see 2-4h as a good minimum tho depending on the schedule for the day.
Ive lost motivation only because I dont know what to do. Every idea I have has already been done. What can I do to stand out, what content can I do that is different then the millions of others.
you share similar interests with many people, but your precise mix of influences and experiences is unique. even if you do something similar to someone else, you will be bringing something to the table that is uniquely you. so you might not ever be the BEST in your field, but you may end up contributing in some way that no one else could. or- you COULD be the best in the world, but you’d never know if you didn’t believe it was possible.
hope any of that helps, best of luck
@@i_dream_of_memes thanks!
im moving tho to my new home man
Me watching this instead of streaming: Interesting. :)
the amount of times you talk about not wearing pants, im starting to believe you dont wear pants on stream at this point 😆
My issue is I compare myself to others, I need to realize I haven't been streaming as long as them so I wont have the same growth. But AHH 🤣🤣
Honestly if i had creative and original ideas instead of recording/streaming Valorant for the 500th time I would find so much more motivation
That sounds familiar
I think a better way to say "motivation" is to say, self discipline. And I agree that motivation is bullsh*t.
I feel this. I worked my way to 97,000 followers on TikTok and then it just kind of stalled this last month no matter what I did and I've started slacking on posting more 😒
I swear every time I'm feel a sort of way for streaming you make a video. Get out of my head!!!
Where does your profit go when someone buys ur merch?
I don’t have any merch?
@@StreamScheme dang 😂 cuz my gf bought some and I put profit on it and idk if I get the profit or what
Turns out I don't like video editing. I just like chatting with people while I play games. Guess I'll never be famous. I'm cool with that.
Wow im early
All I learned is I should take my pants off when I stream.
i stoped streaming for a week only because i got the flu
Do a task everyday?? I’m gonna smoke weed everyday and mark it on my streaks 😎😎
Hi
Hi man how are you?
Hello
What if I have the ADHD?
Keep Your Pants On Please !
I've posted tiktoks every day twice a day for 80 days now. the strategy works i swear by it.
I’m just starting on my journey to be a full time streamer and I’m already understanding what you mean. One little set back in my day can throw everything off 🥲
