What has been your biggest learning this year? For me it is as Einstein said "If I had an hour to solve a problem, I'd spend 55 minutes thinking about the problem and 5 minutes thinking about solutions." To think more about the problem before arriving at the solutions.

@Mike Bayer Your Question! My answer: Right now, I’m painfully aware that I lack patience—with myself and with others. This realization is heavy and difficult to face. It creates tension and discomfort, not only within me but also for the people on my team, and that weighs on me deeply.

We’ve had a lot of spam messages from people promoting YouTube automation. Thankfully, the administration here takes them down pretty fast once they are reported. Don’t fall for this scam. If you’re curious, watch this video.

I realized something the hard way recently. When I started posting on YouTube, I put almost all my energy into the content itself (scripting, filming, editing) and treated everything else as an afterthought. If the video was good, I assumed people would click. They didn’t. It took me a while to accept that YouTube doesn’t reward effort… it rewards clarity. If the title and visual don’t clearly communicate value in the first second, the video never really gets a chance. That mistake slowed my progress, but it also changed how I approach every upload now. I’m more intentional about how the video is presented before it ever goes live, not just what’s inside it. Still learning. Still adjusting. But that shift alone made me look at YouTube very differently.
