There's lots of ways to achieve goals, but if you have a goal like mine, right now
my goal is to be a YouTuber. That goal takes time, that goal takes time, work, and
many different things to achieve that. But one thing I realized early on, and I'm
very glad that I realized this was, yes you can do all these tactics and all these
tricks to actually achieve it, but you want to know the secret. The secret is
pretend like you already are one. It's as simple as that. Simply just look at what
YouTubers are doing and then just do that. Or pretend like you're already a
YouTuber. So what that means is you build your schedule as if you're already a
YouTuber. So just today I was building my schedule because I finished school so I
have a lot of time freed up. And so the way I built my schedule, my perspective on
building that schedule was from a YouTuber perspective. And it's just so much
better that way because first of all you have that identity shift. So you're
actually treating it seriously. And then you also, since you're basically
already are a YouTuber now, you are doing the actions. So you're a YouTuber now.
So now you tell yourself, oh YouTubers do this, YouTubers do that. So what
I'm doing is, oh YouTubers edit videos, YouTubers make thumbnails, YouTubers
record. Now obviously not all YouTubers edit and make thumbnails because they
outsource it. But like in my situation right now that's what I'm doing. And so I
just get down to work and get straight to all of these different things. So over
the next couple episodes I am going to be talking about different topics but
they're all topics that I thought were the best topics to talk about. And the
thing is that when I'm brainstorming my ideas, I could just come up with like
the coolest title or like the best idea. So for example the idea for this video
was how to achieve a goal or like why you're not achieving your goals. And then
I was thinking about how I changed that perspective to, oh I've already achieved
my goal. It's just a matter of time of actually waiting for it to happen. Like
when I realized that that's what I wanted to do be a YouTuber, I just
have already decided that I've already achieved it. Like I already am a YouTuber
now. So it's time to act like it. Like I've already am a YouTuber.
Like there's no like debate around it. There's no question of it. It's just a
matter of time before my skill catches up and then I start to actually gain
some traction. But for the time being I still am a YouTuber so nothing changes.
