    Dreaming big isn’t a problem. Wanting everything instantly is a problem

    The dream small could be a big dream chopped down into easier parts. Divide and conquer.

    If you want to start a youtube channel, one of the first things that will help you is doing some research, especially on what exactly you intend to do. Games for low end computers is an interesting topic, but if your presentation is lacking, your growth will be small. Also, without money to invest in advertising one way or another, don’t expect significant growth, or even to see your videos bringing in money. Youtube ads pay peanuts.

    Other things to keep in mind, in case you want to go forward with doing those videos:

    • What do people hate in videos, in general? (i personally despise intros that are more than 5 seconds long)
    • What are some niches of your interest that seem to lack content?
    • How much time can you actually invest in doing it? It’s not just recording, editing takes a good chunk of time, too.
    • Can you take criticism like a pro? Do you have cold enough blood to shrug off trolls? - Not every comment will be a pat on the back. Sometimes, an angry asshole might actually have a point (not always, but it can happen). Other times, people just say bullshit because they’re dumb. You’ll have to deal with that
    • More importantly, are you ready to take responsibility for keeping it up in case you succeed?
