You have an idea to start a Youtube channel.

A mission.

A target audience.

And a message you want to share with the world.

You’re going to have to make mediocre content to figure out how to make great content. 

And yes, the first few videos won’t be perfect. But that’s fine, they will get better. 

You just need to start. 

And after you start you need to keep going.

PS. I’m launching a 10-part Youtube series called SoCurious About where I’ll do deep dives on things I’m interested in the creator economy.
