Good morning! It just turned 5, and it wasn’t the best sleep that I had, but I do feel rested. That’s the most important thing. I was able to go back to sleep when I woke up. I just got it yesterday.
Alright, so this is the camera mount. It’s from the same company as my tripod from Ulanzi. The quality of the tripod is good, so I thought the quality of this will also be good. Because it’s the weekend, my gym opens at 9:00 a.m., which kind of sucks, but it is what it is. I was just watching a video of Ali Abd’s nine things I wish I knew when I started YouTube, and the first thing he talked about was that no one cares about your videos. And that’s so true. Nobody cares whether you are trying to create content, start a new business, or whatever you want to do, whatever your passion is. No one cares. People are too busy with their own lives and their own work. They don’t really care, so stop worrying about what other people might think of your content or think of you. I know it’s scary. I’ve done it. You should watch my first video. For me, it’s so cringe, but I did it, and I’m really proud of myself for doing it. But now that I’ve done this a few times, I’ve built up this skill of not really worrying about what other people might think. So it’s something you can build up. I know when you start creating content, when you first post your video, I know it can be very scary. I was scared as well. You just have to take that first step and then the second and the third, and slowly but surely, I know you will start to worry less about what people might think, and you will be proud of yourself for starting. A lot of people say, ‘Oh, I’m going to start creating content. I’m going to start my YouTube channel,’ but 99% of the people don’t do it. So if you even post your first video, you are better than 99% of the people. Then you post the second, then you post the third. I’m speaking from my experience. Please just do it if you want to create content, if you want to go after your goals, your dreams. Just do it. You only have one life. You’re going to die someday. The people you are worrying about will also die someday. So why worry? Just do it. Just follow your genuine curiosity. That’s a life worth living. You cannot live your life scared. What kind of life is that if you’re too scared to be yourself, to be your authentic self, and to not do what you really want to do? For me, a life worth living is being intentional with your life, doing what you truly want to do, or doing something that’s meaningful, being your true self, and just following your genuine curiosity. Think about it. Is it worth it to not pursue your dreams because you’re too worried about what people might think? That sounds stupid. You’re not going to pursue your dreams because you worry about what a person might think of you that you don’t even know, that you don’t even care about. Doesn’t make sense. Is it really worth it? No, it’s not worth it. You know, there’s no point in seeing yourself failing, right? I don’t see myself failing, but there’s always a chance that I might fail, and I’m okay with that. Some people say they are scared of failing, but I think they are really scared of the judgment of people seeing you fail. Because if nobody knew that you failed, I don’t think you would be scared of failing. So it comes down to the judgment of others. Like the journey that I’m on, creating content, it might fail, right? There’s a chance that it might fail. There’s a chance this doesn’t work out. But will I think that the last few years that I spent on this is a waste of time? Absolutely not. Not a chance. I’ve learned a lot. I’ve grown a lot. The weird thing is, if I think about it, I don’t see myself doing anything else. I truly see myself doing this for the rest of my life, creating content, maybe writing as well, providing value, having a positive impact on people’s lives. I literally see myself doing this for the rest of my life. It’s weird. Alex Hosi said something that I agree with. If you don’t give up, either you’ll make it or you die. So it’s definitely worth pursuing your goals and your dreams. Just do it. Whatever you decide to do, whatever your passion is, I think it’s important to have fulfillment in your life with whatever you do. I think it’s good to be passionate about what you do, but also provide value to others. Try to help others with whatever you want to do. When you do that, you have fulfillment from it because you are doing something good. You’re trying to have a positive impact. I think the ideal work would be something that you’re passionate about, something that you are genuinely curious about, something that is fulfilling to you, that is providing value to others. And if you can earn a living from it, for me personally, that would be my dream job. I can do this for the rest of my life. I don’t have to become rich. I don’t have to become successful. It depends on what your meaning of success is. For me, that’s being successful, and that’s something I’m striving for. So think about it. Are you truly passionate about what you do? Is it fulfilling? Is it providing value? And can you do it for a living? You know, you don’t need music to enjoy. You know, just got to dance. Hey, I like being weird, okay? Alright, let’s make a coffee. This is the Tokyo Lungo. It’s my favorite. What do you prefer, tea or coffee? I like drinking both, but a little bit more to the coffee side. I know it’s not healthy, but it’s my guilty pleasure. I like to warm up the milk a bit because otherwise the coffee gets cold so fast. I forgot to connect the mic, so I was talking for nothing. What I was saying was, it’s currently 7:30. I just finished editing the vlog. The uncut vlog was around 1 hour and 30 minutes. Imagine a vlog of 1 hour and 30 minutes. That would be crazy, right? I like talking about things that I’m truly passionate about, things that genuinely interest me. Sometimes I can be the most talkative, and sometimes the most silent guy in the group. It depends on who I am with and what we’re talking about. If it doesn’t interest me, I don’t really talk. I just listen. But if it’s things that I’m truly passionate about, I can talk a lot. I’ll take a 10-minute break and then read 10 pages of this book. Damn, that took too much time just to mount the camera on there. It’s already 9:30. Well, at least the camera will be safe. It literally took me like 20 minutes to just set this up. It’s day 6 of Project 50. Today, I’m training legs. I’m not sure about the abs because I was thinking maybe I can train abs tomorrow. It is a rest day tomorrow, but if I want to go to the gym, I need to train something. I was thinking abs. I can train legs today, and tomorrow I can train abs and maybe a little bit of cardio or a different muscle part. So I just did a quick stair walk. Just finished my leg workout. Obviously, because it’s the weekend, it was busy, but it was nice seeing friends that I normally don’t see during the week. So that’s nice. Last time, I couldn’t really warm up because I was late. Today, I have time to warm up. I’m not still alive. Still alive. The bike is on, so they can hear you. I just saw my friends that I haven’t seen for a while. I’m upset. No weights. Alright, let’s do the first working set. Damn, I really feel my legs from the last workout. A little bit of pain is good, right? Like I said, I’ve been seeing a lot of gym friends that I normally don’t see during the week. I just did my warm-up set. Now, took my first working set. Damn, I really feel my legs from the last workout. Alright, just finished my leg workout. Obviously, because it’s the weekend, it was busy. But it was nice seeing friends again that I haven’t seen for a while. And I got to meet someone new who also creates content on TikTok. This week, I got to know two new people who create content. So nice. I’ve said this before, the gym culture, the people in there are so great. I really do enjoy going to the gym. Alright, that’s it for day six of the Project 50 challenge. And I’ll see you tomorrow for day seven. Peace!
