We Reached 100 Videos on Youtube

Life is filled with milestones and achievements. What and how you choose to celebrate is completely up to you. Everyone has different things that they deem important. Sure everyone has the big firsts that we all acknowledge; your first step, your first word, your first tooth, your first day of school, getting your license, your high school graduation, your college graduation, etc. etc. But at some point, your achievements become your own and you celebrate whatever you choose to. You celebrate waking up and being motivated enough to shower or make breakfast. You celebrate being able to pay off a loan. You celebrate getting a new job that makes you happy.

For me, I try to find every little thing I can acknowledge and say, you did that, you're making progress, and you're doing something with your life no matter how small.

I first hit that go-live button on Twitch back on August 30th, 2021. It was really just meant to be me learning how it all worked so I could help a friend get started and maybe help out my brother too since that was what he really wanted to be doing with his life. And while I was not great at it, I also was not horrible at it. I made affiliate status and was able to start pulling in petty change on October 22nd of that same year. Just under two months and I had gotten the 50 followers and the 5 concurrent views you needed at that time. I can't say I have progressed too much further since then, I did have to take a whole year off to focus on finding another job at one point. But now? Now I am doing my best to stream every weekend. I am doing my best to push up to 250 followers. I am doing my best to keep at least 1 subscriber. I am doing my best to keep my 10 average viewers entertained and happy. I am doing my best to explore other possibilities. Posting on my blog daily and improving its layout. Sharing content on Instagram whenever I can remember. Making daily YouTube posts so that I can maybe start earning on there too. 

It may not seem like much. It may not be significant. But to me? It is. It's progress. It's me remembering to do something every day. It's me remembering that I can be and do more if I just choose to. 

And now we are here.

At the point where I have 100 videos officially posted on YouTube and am continuing to grow. The next goal milestone? Hit that 100 subscribers on YouTube. Hit them 250 followers on Twitch. Hit 1000 followers on Tiktok. Honestly, just continue to make progress and do what makes me happy.

Thank you for always being there to support me Nightlings <3
