The Ironic Thing About Reaching 100k Subcribers on Youtube

in #dtube6 years ago


I have recently achieved one of my goals of 100k Subscribers on Youtube. The ironic thing is that I am often more excited to make Dtube videos and post on the Steem blockchain, then I am to just post on Youtube.

I have been posting videos on Youtube for 7 years now. The first 5 years of posting on YT I only accumulated 2,500 subscribers, then in the last 5 years I have gained over 100k. The reason for this is because in the past 2 years I have really put the pedal to the metal, and focused on creating as much value as I possibly can.

Looking back at the time it has taken to reach this goal, it reminds me of a quote by Bill Gates which says “Most people overestimate what they can do in one year and underestimate what they can do in ten years.”
When reading this quote it also gives me a different perspective on #Dtube and the Steem blockchain. Even if the price of Steem stays where it is, or drops within the next year or two, I am confident that within the next 10 to 15 years #Dtube and Steem will be incredibly valuable.

The more I learn about crypto and the power of this blockchain, the more I am excited to wake up each day and share as much value as I can on here.

I have a new goal on Steemit, which is to gain at least 1k followers by the end of this summer, and a bigger goal of achieving 5k followers by the end of this year. Now that I have set this goal, I will begin working and doing what I can to daily get one step closer and turn it into reality.

I wanted to thank everyone on here who has supported me and will continues to support me as I work towards this goal. LET’S GOOOOO!!

This reminds me of when I was trying to get my first thousand followers on Twitter. I remember being stuck in the high 900's no matter what I did. Finally hit a wall at 999 and refused to give up.

It was as if the Twitter Gods were taunting me.

However, I broke through and it was smooth sailing until 10,000 then 13,000. But it's been fun along the way. Congrats! :)

Haha! “Twitter gods” I like that. Kinda like how I call YouTube’s version of that “Father Alogorithim” lol.
Wow!! 13k ok twitter is big! I find that to be one of the hardest social media sites to build a following on. I would consider FB the easiest.
Thanks you @evernoticethat!

That's encouraging, Tony robbins also often say that people overestimate what they can do in a year and underestimate what they can do in a decade or lifetime. I had one channel on youtube that reached 3500 in less than a year with just one of my videos on it (or wait, i had made 42 o so videos actually on a previous channel but moved the successful video to a new channel that grew) but now I started a new channel and in one year it just has 235 followers with 100 of my videos on it, quite discouraging. :/ And 5 followers on Dtube/steem. In 2 days though ;)

Yes! Inlocd Tony Robbins ❤️
Yeah Youtube can be a tough and tricky game to play. Especially because it is the algorithm that dictates everything on their.
That’s why I love Steem an Dtube though. I more “real” community on here in my opinion. 😁
Looks like you just got another follower 👍🏻

Congrats on the sub count! I hope some day I can enjoy half of that. I think you are absolutey right about the future of the platform and crypto in general. Just to know that we are early adopters of what it sure to be a world changing technology is an amazing thing. We will be able to look back and tell the story of how we paved the way to a brave new world. Awesome!!

Thank you @brewcitygardener!!
Yeah, I agree and it’s fun to be at the forefront of like you said “a world changing experience.
😁❤️

In my opinion I think the reason you have more subscribers is because people not only love dogs [tuck]
but also because people are waking up to the fact that the food you buy in the grocery store tastes like you know what ! So more and more individuals want to grow their own food for as little work as possible with the best tasting food . what better way then "back to Eden?' In addition alot of us are letting Jesus and his Father back into our lives , me for one , not to mention Paul who started it all up in Oregon. You both are my inspiration. I am having a very difficult time acquiring wood chips even using 'getchipdrop.com' very exasperating to say the least. On my channel which I hope to get some content up soon I refer to you as 'Jersey James .' Will be linking your channel under video but don't stress as I am a real procrastinator ...lolo I think God has blessed you . Keep up the good work! (I wonder if Paul and you have realized that you are both named after the prophets ?'

I think you are absolutely right @alphandomega!
I will pray for you to get blessed with some chips my friend. “Jersey James”, I love that!!!
He has blessed me, sometimes I don’t appreciate it as much as I should though, but I’m working on that.
I can’t group myself with Paul or those other men, but I am honored that you associate me with Paul Gautschi! 😁❤️

Wow 100k is lot 😀
And new summer is here and now you start what new videos 😁👌🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Yup!! The nice weather has come, and I am so excited to be making more videos and interacting with everyone on here. 🥰

Cool ... then soon I'm back and I look more what you new post :)
fresh food is all time good :)

Yes bro ! We will go that objetive u have the same here !

I know that we have to wait the massive adoption for that, because now a lot of accounts are not being used for the low prices... but in the next bull run maybe in 2020 or 2021 this will be huge bro and in that moment we will achieve our goals because we will be old tiggers in this social media platform !

I completed ageee my friend @ignacioarreses! We are the ones working likes it’s “spring” even though it’s “winter.” So when summer comes we will be reaping while others were caught sleeping. 😁

Woohooo! Congrats on the 100k! Power up, power up, power up!! Let's gooooo! lol

Thank you @tamaralovelace! Yess power it up, LET’S GOOOOO!!! ❤️😁
