I GOT APPROVED FOR YOUTUBE MONETIZATION!!

I started my channel and posted my first video around New Year’s Eve last year but didn’t post again until around mid-June. I started posting more regularly in July, and my channel started really growing in August.

The two most cited reasons my subscribers gave for subscribing to my channel was “authenticity” and “insightful commentary.”

Despite popular advice, I have not niched, and currently have no intention to.

All that to say, I think there is value in just being yourself and making videos for the fun of it. And whatever successes you may gain from that are just cherries on top.

Idk if it will last. Idk if I will continue to grow. But I’m having fun with it right now. I’m the happiest I’ve been in a long time, so I’m going to enjoy it for however long it lasts.
