one of my favorite quotes ever is if you want what I have you got a do what I do
what is up everybody this is Chris from the rewired soul where we talk about the
problem but focus on the solution and if you're new to my channel my channel is
all about helping people with their mental health so for any that kind of
stuff make sure you subscribe and ring that notification bell but right now you
might be thinking oh but Chris you're talking about 10 lessons you learned to
get to 20,000 subscribers what's that guy to do with mental health I don't
know if if you've been paying attention or not
but if you look around at youtubers lately they are losing their minds
sometimes I like to make videos to help my fellow creators out and I want to
talk about things that I've learned on my path to 20,000 subscribers before I
do that I want to thank each and every one of you beautiful people out there
will click that subscribe button even more so for those of you who click that
notification bell because you care about mental health and whether it's improving
yours or just educating yourself or decreasing the stigma whatever it is I
love each and every one of you so so so much so yeah without further ado these
are things that I've learned on my road to 20,000 subscribers and even if the
amount of youtube creator or even think about starting a YouTube channel I truly
believe that some of these things that I learned might be able to help you just
in life or in the workplace in general so tip number one or lesson number one
rather is something that I still work on every single day which is focus on your
own race like it is so easy for me to compare myself to other people and where
other people are there's a there's a saying where is I don't compare yourself
to where you are today based on where someone else is today compare yourself
to where you were yesterday right like I was literally just whining to Tristan
this morning I'm just going through YouTube and checking out other channels
or what YouTube recommends to me I'll just like send Trista's screenshots of
like how does this person get more views than I like it just blows my bi head
like she like brings me back down if she's like yo worry about your own race
you know what I mean but she also tells me you know it reminds me to be grateful
for every single viewer and subscriber that I have so you got to focus on your
own race I've talked about this in other videos we're like youtubers have quit
because they look at the success of other people focus on your own race and
what you are doing lesson number two connect your audience like this is huge
if like if you look at what I do like I try to reply to as many as many of the
comments as possible or at least hold them just to kind of show that I did
read it right sometimes I just don't have the words to say like it's
important like I think that's one of the huge things here's a little side tip for
anybody who is on YouTube like when I was smaller and as I was growing like if
anybody left a comment I would always remind them to subscribe I'm like hey
might want to subscribe and it worked I swear
it worked like 90% of the time I think it's important to be grateful because
something I've talked about is this disconnect that I see bigger youtubers
get between them and their audience so I want to make sure that my audience is
engaged and we're talking and having conversations at some applause so I
mentioned in another video that Tristan is now helping me with this
just because the channel is getting bigger but it's very important for us to
truly appreciate and connect with the people who are watching our content
lesson number three is support have support like Tristan is amazing support
you know Zack is amazing support my friends are some amazing support like
when it comes to this YouTube specifically like I needed people who
understood and like Tristan gets it I'm very fortunate about that but she only
gets it to an extent you know she's not a YouTube creator what I actually did
was I joined some Facebook groups of other people on this YouTube journey as
well so I support is a huge part of mental health I tell you all the time
it's one of the reasons I started my Facebook group for all of you rewired
soldiers out there by the way link down in the description
come join it like we need support we need to hear from other people who are
going through the same struggles as we are because one of the things a lot of
us suffer from is something called terminal uniqueness where we think we
are the only ones going through what we're going through that's number four
stop making videos for yourself like I had to learn that and this sounds really
weird this sounds really weird because you hear these youtubers you're talking
about Blair now like uh make your videos for other people I kept making videos
for other people well a lot of it is about the mindset I'm gonna talk about
mindset a few times throughout this video but no matter what kind of video
you're making you're making it for other people you just need to remember that so
me you know I'm truly trying to help people with their mental health right
like that is the focus that's my goal that is what I'm trying to do but like
for example my buddy q-star he has a channel where he talks about
you know reddit posts and he's a comedian and he makes fun and everything
like that like I was talking to him I'm like you
provide a lot of value dude I'm like every time I watch your videos I laugh
and it kind of makes me think right so he's making a video for me even though
he may not realize it but even people who are like storytime
two birds of floggers like whenever I make a video I'm always thinking about
what you're going to gain from it like how am I gonna help you so even if
you're doing entertainment or vlogging or music or how to like just we need to
stop worrying about you know what what what this video is about for us and how
we can help other people alright when we switch that mindset it helps
keep me motivated and keep me moving forward and also it also helps me quit
worried about so much about the numbers and the analytics and everything like
that because I remember I'm making this for other people lesson number five
comes from my man himself roberto blake roberto blake like i just i need people
to call me out i need people to you know point out entitlement and I'll never
forget when I first started on YouTube I was in a livestream of Roberto's I can't
remember if it was in our Facebook group or if it was all in one of his YouTube
live streams but I just remember he was talking about how so many youtubers want
to go viral they won't have a million subscribers they want to have this and
like Roberto straight-up said he's like you have no right to complain until you
have 1,000 videos all right challenge accepted mother you know what I mean
like it's true it's true we see a lot of people who are complaining and they feel
like you know the YouTube algorithm owes them something or the audience ohs them
something like when it comes to this like I know that I don't nobody owes me
anything YouTube doesn't owe me anything you don't owe me anything nobody owes me
jack squat until I put in the work I have no right to complain and even when
I do put in the work I barely I barely have a right to complain so if you're
somebody who's trying to create something like how much effort are you
actually putting into this like I get a lot of people who you know say oh I want
you to be able to grow and things like look I go check out their channel they
got like five videos I'm like what do you expect like what do you expect from
just a few videos so I have been taking YouTube seriously for less than a year
and a half and I have over 500 videos over 500 videos and you guys who have
been subscribed you know sometimes I put out two three videos a day like I know
that if I want to get to that goal I gotta hustle
and I don't work for it nothing is owed to me lesson number six is stay humble
stay humble is something that I'm constantly working on it's something I'm
constantly trying to do because one of my biggest fears is becoming a hypocrite
right and on my journey of growing this thing there's a lot of youtubers who
I've reached out to and I've noticed I've noticed that as I grow more of them
are starting to talk to me right and like look at I'm like that is terrible
and it's a terrible way to live that you're only talking to me once I start
growing so what I try to do is I try to be the change I want to see in the world
so I'm constantly staying humble I'm constantly looking at other creators or
smaller creators that's what I try to do collabs that's why I share a lot of
content because I need to stay humble like I was actually over a twisty tie
yesterday I was having a conversation with her because you know I reply to
comments sometimes I get a little sassy and one of my fears is reverting back to
this idea that I'm always right you know what I mean like because if I do that
like my ego is my worst enemy so I have to be able to look at these things and
saying like okay disagreement or do I am I being sick headed and narrow minded
and just think I'm always right like I have to stay humble like I am no
different than anybody watching this content right now the only difference is
I uploaded it onto YouTube that's it and truthfully truthfully I think you
know the world in general would be a better place if we just started looking
at people as people not based on their numbers or how much money they make or
anything like that this is just a human problem so like some of you have
mentioned like one of my biggest pet peeves it's just social hierarchies
right like oh this person has more subscribers so they don't talk to this
person like that is just some of the most ridiculous stuff ever so never ever
ever ever hold me up on a pedestal you know what I mean going back to what I
said if you want what I have just do what I do
what's the number seven speaking of staying humble separate the haters from
the constructive criticism because it's really easy for me to look at different
comments and think that people are just hating on me they don't get me they
don't understand all these other things but I get it
there I gotta recognize my own bias I gotta recognize you know is my ego
getting out of control thinking that everything I say is the
word of God you know I'm always right like I have to look at these things and
say okay this person actually has some good criticisms right so for example for
example I made a video with my son a couple of weeks ago and some people
notice that I move my mouth when Dylan's talking I do this all the time
Tristan pointed out that even when I'm watching my own videos I move my mouth
it's weird able to kind of filter out these things and it's an ongoing process
of like is this a criticism that actually really like pay attention to
and take into consideration or is this just me realizing that I'm not gonna be
able to please 100% of people and like thank you for your feedback but you know
I'm gonna keep doing it this way lesson number eight is huge for any creator out
there any creator out there be mindful of the content that you want to make and
like listen to your thoughts and emotions and your passions and feelings
like going back to roberto blake like we were talking he was saying feels like a
blog so he went to block some days he feels like doing photography so he does
photography and yeah you know what we're all trying to do is know what youtubers
are trying to do is like do your own thing and just have this kind of freedom
so like a great example is what i'm doing right now with this video i some
other videos I want to make because I promise to people but like I just didn't
feel like making it at this moment I wanted to record but I didn't feel like
what I do that right so I was like oh I'll just make this video because it's
what my body and my mind is telling me to make you can adapt adopt this into
part of your life so let's say for example you gotta clean your house okay
oh I don't want to clean the kitchen okay cool don't clean the kitchen don't
clean your bedroom in the living room whatever it is you see what I mean so
rather than doing nothing I just try to do something but I listen to what I want
to do freedom at our actual job so we might as
well do it when we're becoming equator on YouTube even if you're doing like
Instagram or you know Twitter stop or blogging whatever it is listen to what
you want to do like something else that I've mentioned in previous videos like I
personally don't strap my down to myself down to a schedule I make more content
than a lot of creatives a lot of creatures but I've never promised you
anything you know why because if I want to take a day off I didn't promise you a
dang thing lesson number nine quit slacking on SEO right so this goes back
to what I was saying like I have no right to complain unless I'm putting in
the work like I see a lot of creators who complain about you know huge
creators complaining about this Oh YouTube suppresses my content YouTube's
suppressing my content right but I look at their SEO I'm like are they doing
everything they can like in the in the tags and the keywords in the description
and the title like are these things search friendly and I see a lot of
people on it and again I have a look at myself and do that like if I'm being
lazy about that I have no right to complain about YouTube if I'm being lazy
one of the reasons my channel has been growing is because I make sure that
people who are looking for content like mine can find it so right now I'll give
a huge shout out to my buddy judo over at the channel positively you
know because she has about 3,000 subscribers but I look at her videos and
she has some great videos some great videos that I know people are looking
for you know how I know people are looking for them because they've asked
me to make them then I'm like oh well who knows making them but then I looked
over at her at her stuff I'm like girl you are not putting all of the effort
into the SEO to make algorithm able to find your content and like again like
who knows my girl she's my buddy and I tell people what they need to hear now
if they want to hear so now who knows putting a little bit more effort into
the SEO so everybody if you're on YouTube just know you can put 500
characters of tags in there okay good decent at writing write a detailed
description okay your titles the titles have you looking at titles they are
stuffed with such friendly keywords I take probably about an extra 20 minutes
every video to make sure that I am doing all of
those things last but not least lesson 10 focus on the solution there are a
million reasons why I always say we're talking about the problem but focus on
the solution something that is easy for me to do as well as a lot of other
creators to do is just talk about the problem talking about the oh the YouTube
algorithm this or oh the Adsense that or OD monetization this oh this this this
and like when we stay sucked into that problem we're completely missing the
solutions right so all the things that I talked about the SEO the hustle that
work all these things like what can I do so right now what I do to counteract you
know the way the algorithm works I make a ton of content I connect with all of
you I reply to your comments I do so many different things when it comes to
revenue I have a patreon I have two books up on Amazon Tristan has helped me
make merch I just do I use affiliate links where I can like like I am not
beholden to YouTube and it's something that a lot of entrepreneurial creators
have taught me like I focus on the solution sitting in the problem whining
complaining has not gotten me anywhere ever in life but you know what does get
me somewhere when I take actionable steps towards the solution okay so
anyways that's what I want to talk about and I hope whether you're a youtuber or
not you were able to take some things from this video if you want down in the
comments below let me know which one of these lessons is something that you
think that you can adopt into your life whether you're a youtuber or not okay
anyways that's all I got for this video if you like this video please give it a
thumbs up if you're new make sure to subscribe and win get notification Bell

Mental health services to get pound 2bn funding boost in budget UK news - Duration: 6:22.
Mental health services to get pound 2bn funding boost in budget UK news
Philip Hammond says measures being announced in budget depend on reaching Brexit deal
Philip Hammond says measures being announced in budget depend on reaching Brexit deal
Philip Hammond will announce a £2bn real-terms increase in mental health funding on Monday as he unveils his first budget since Theresa May told the Conservative party conference that voters needed to know austerity was over.
The commitment should lead to comprehensive mental health support being available in every large A&E department. It suggests that mental health, long seen as a neglected area within the NHS, will benefit disproportionately from the £20bn-a-year funding increase for health announced by the prime minister in June.
In pre-budget interviews on Sunday, Hammond refused to comment on reports that better-than-expected tax returns have given him a £13bn windfall, reducing the need for the substantial tax increases that had been anticipated when May announced her spending spree for the NHS over the next five years.
But he also stressed that the measures being announced would be contingent on the government securing a Brexit deal with the EU – and that, in the event of there being no deal, he would have to return to parliament with an emergency budget setting out an alternative economic strategy for the UK.
In remarks with a different emphasis to May's conference speech, he also played down suggestions that the budget would categorically mark the end of austerity, saying just that this might be the moment when people see "that the fruits of their hard work are now at last in sight" and that detailed decisions about more money for government departments would be made in the spending review next year.
On Sunday Hammond said that the most important spending decision in the budget was the extra cash for the NHS in England announced by May in the summer, with Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland getting proportional extra sums in the usual way. The increase will begin in 2019-20, reaching an extra £20bn in real terms for NHS England by 2023-24. In one of the first indications of how that money will be allocated, MPs will be told that in England at least £2bn will go to mental health services by 2023-24.
Although sizeable compared to the £12bn a year currently on mental health services in England, the Institute for Public Policy Research (IPPR) thinktank said that the £2bn extra promised in the budget was only half what was needed to put spending more on a par with that of physical health.
In its 2012 Health and Social Care Act the coalition government legislated to create "parity of esteem" between mental and physical health, but there have been persistent complaints that this aspiration has never been achieved and May herself cited mental health as an area where services must be improved in the "burning injustices" speech she gave outside No 10 when she became prime minister.
According to a government briefing, the new money will ensure that mental health support is available 24/7 in every large A&E department – a key priority as people with mental health problems often turn to A&E because support is not available elsewhere.
The funding will also pay for more mental health ambulances, community services for people with mental health problems, specialist crisis teams linking schools, social services and young people's mental health services, and teams in schools supporting people with mild and moderate mental health problems.
Harry Quilter-Pinner, an IPPR researcher, said that if the government really wanted to achieve "parity of esteem" between mental health and physical health, spending on mental health would have to rise by £4.1bn by 2023-24 to deliver treatment rates equivalent to those available for comparable physical health conditions. "To truly make progress towards parity of esteem the government will need to commit twice as much as they have today," he said. "Without this the NHS will never be truly 'free at the point of need' for people experiencing mental ill-health."
The Treasury has also announced that the budget will allocate £60m for spending on tree planting – but with most of that going on a £50m carbon credit programme that would fund an estimated £10m to be spent on trees over the next 30 years.
This will be Hammond's third budget and, given the strong possibility of either a substantial reshuffle or a Tory leadership contest within the next 12 months, many MPs suspect it will be his last. It has been prepared amid reports that Hammond and May have clashed over whether or not it is responsible to increase spending and cut taxes with the deficit ongoing and Brexit likely to hit the public finances.
In his statement Hammond is also expected to announce:
* A cut in business rates for small retailers, as part of a £1.5bn package intended to boost the high street.
* Further details of plans for a new tax on tech giants – in an interview on Sunday Hammond signalled he could set a deadline for the UK to act unilaterally if he cannot secure action at an international level.
* Almost £1bn extra for adult social care.
* A £30bn transport network investment, with £28.8bn from vehicle excise duty ringfenced for spending on roads.
* Proposals to help struggling families access interest-free loans as an alternative to having to rely on loan sharks.
* A significant investment in superfast broadband.
* An increase in defence spending.
* An increase in spending on universal credit.
John McDonnell, the shadow chancellor, said on Sunday that Labour would appeal to other parties in the Commons to join it in voting down the budget if Hammond did not use it to announce a halt to the rollout of universal credit.
Commenting on the mental health announcement, Andy Bell, deputy chief executive of the Centre for Mental Health, said: "Increasing mental health spending as a proportion of NHS funding for the next five years is an important step towards parity. It is vital that this investment is earmarked for mental health to ensure it brings about the promised improvements in care and support and to put right the decades of underinvestment in mental health services throughout the NHS."
But Labour said the government should be spending more money now, not making promises about the next five years.
"If this announcement is simply money that's already been promised, it will do little to relieve the severe pressures on mental health services that have built up because of this Tory government's relentless underfunding of the NHS," said the shadow mental health minister, Barbara Keeley.

How to Get Promoted at Work: 3 Crucial Steps - Duration: 2:18.
There's sometimes people in the organization who actually have the power
to change a system. And what I mean by that, is not change the entire system
but, let's say you're trying to get promoted. Well does your boss have the
ability to change the system? No not really. Does your boss's boss? A little more.
Does your boss's boss's boss? Absolutely. If he wanted you to get
promoted because you knew, he knew you were leaving, I guarantee he would get
you promoted. So, I guess what I'm saying is try to find influence with the
players and the most influential players in the company. And make sure that, see if
you need to leverage them. And sometimes you might have to sit down with them and say, I've got, I mean, so often what I find is that in bureaucracies like this, we
just accept it and we say that's how it is and there's nothing I can do. And then
we don't do anything and I've seen this happen. And my clients take initiative
and they speak their mind and they talk to their boss and boss's boss and say
you know what, this is how I perform, this is how well I've done and no one's
advancing me. And it's because that's a system, but I'm performing better than
anyone else. Here's my reviews, here's my performance plans, here's how great I've
done. Lay that out with the boss's boss. Make that known. Not for it to be changed
in that moment, but to plant the seed that says this is how I'm doing, I want to let
you know about this. So, that three months later you can bring it up again, when you
have another huge win. And then six months later you bring up again. So,
within a year-and-a-half time it's not something you never said. It's something
you spoke about enough times that when it comes time to finally say you know, am
I gonna get something or not? More often than not, they just might pull the
trigger, unorthodoxly than they normally do. But it's your job to sit there and
say what you've been doing and do a good job and do it with the people one or two
levels above you, so that when it's time comes time to pull the trigger they're
willing to do it. Because they've seen all that. But a lot of you out there, I
know in a bureaucracy like this because I work with clients like this and bureaucracies
like this stay quiet and just accept that this is how it is and there's
nothing I can do. And you'd be surprised, there's a lot you can do. But it may, you
have to be patient it may not happen immediately but I guarantee, in a year
year-and-a-half your chance of getting promoted over someone else would be
greater, because the boss's boss knows about what your wins are and what your
accomplishments are more than anyone else.
