You have to STOP doing these habits: 1. Scrolling on social media anytime you physically can. 2. Not taking your sleep seriously enough, regularly getting less than 6-7 hours. 3. Leaving exercise until later on in the day, or neglecting it altogether. 4. Relying on random spurts of motivation to get stuff done. 5. Snoozing morning alarms until the last possible minute. 6. Not getting enough sunlight. 7. Having no clear goals. Do this instead: 1. Normalise making conversation instead of scrolling. Use time limits on apps. Put your phone in a separate room more often. Have a ‘phone-free hour’ every now and again. 2. Regularly get at LEAST 7 hours sleep. Go to bed and wake up at the same time most nights. 3. Get exercise done in the morning when motivation and energy levels are generally highest. 4. Use routines and habits to instil disciplined rather than ‘needing’ motivation. 5. Wake up on your first alarm. Put your phone on the other side of the room to help. Get straight into your morning routine as you turn your alarm off. 6. Get sunlight as early as you can in the morning. Spend more time in nature. 7. Have a long term vision for yourself and set yourself mini-goals to help you achieve this. Which habits from the list will you change? When I stopped doing Number 2 and started getting the right amount of sleep, everything changed for me!

I spent ~15 hours pouring my soul into the scripting, title, thumbnail, recording, and editing of a video and it paid off. I give all the credit to Hamza. Hamza recommended the book Storyworthy, so I read it in its entirety and found this quote: "The longer you speak, the more perfect and precise you must be. The longer you stand in front of an audience - whether it be a theater or a boardroom - the more entertaining and engaging your words must be." I journaled about the quote and realized how I could finally grow my YouTube channel, after 2 months of failure: If I'm not entertaining, why am I posting long unedited videos? What if I cram as much value into the least time possible? My average watch time is ~2 minutes on an unedited video. If I cut out all the fluff in my video, and bombard the viewer with extreme value and entertainment, why couldn't I triple my watch time? I did this and it worked. To all the self-improvement YouTubers posting 30-minute unedited rants, if you just add music, throw in some graphics, and most importantly, cut the moments that aren't valuable to the viewer you'll start getting views. I hope this was a good use of your time.

So I’ve noticed with a lot of educational videos that do very well, they always establish credibility. For example one of @Ali Alqaraghuli established credibility in his title & inside the video. He clearly stated he was a NASA engineer who does 2 business as well, making the credibility obvious, and the video I’m specifically talking about got 90k views while at 6k subs(I’m pretty sure less at the time as well). So I’ve thought about with my titles and stuff, since I’m a personal trainer & I lack credibility on the outside, should I put that I’m a personal trainer in my titles? I’ll give an example, one of my videos that I’m going to be filming today is “How I Eliminate Ankle Pain As A Personal Trainer.” Do you think that would give enough credibility given I also do the same inside the video?

Watch my video below explaining at 1.5x speed! 👇 I'm 97% sure that you're wasting your time speaking to customers. There's a specific way you have conversations with them to figure out the product they'd SELL THEIR KIDNEY to buy from you. Andrew posted a great video yesterday on 'Why 95% Can't make $10,000/month Online'. Spoiler: they're not finding Product Market Fit (which you achieve by speaking to your customers to know them inside out) I break down the first chapter from the best book ever written on the topic - 'The Mom Test' - so you don't have to: https://www.loom.com/share/82a387e13c574c1da8fc7671d6a2dbc9?sid=6bb1c831-11c0-4e57-b424-2ed195bca557

Hi guys, Firstly, I'd like to say, thank you admins for accepting my membership request. It's always good to have a community of like minded individuals together to bounce ideas off and hopefully grow to the heights we all want to reach! To be totally honest, some limiting beliefs are starting to slowly come into my mind. I'm confident my YouTube videos are of good quality but I'm just concerned about reach. I'm building a twitter account side by side with my YT channel to improve reach and my brand but I'm just not seeing the progress. Now I am only 4 videos in (Feel free to call me impatient) but I know I have a good product here. I need some inspiration on methods to market my channel. Does anyone have any ideas?
