00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:08,080
So I was sitting at my computer watching YouTube and I was trying to find some like really
2
00:00:08,080 --> 00:00:14,280
golden tips for like my growth and my future in the YouTube channel.
3
00:00:14,280 --> 00:00:18,840
Speaking, storytelling, I was just trying to find something amazing.
4
00:00:18,840 --> 00:00:27,600
And I came across this guy and he was talking about how like this is, he gave like a tip
5
00:00:27,600 --> 00:00:36,840
or like this strategy that all of the like literally the top dogs in the markets.
6
00:00:36,840 --> 00:00:42,800
So all the people that are dominating their markets, this is what they do.
7
00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:46,520
So I should be like listening, right?
8
00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:52,280
So I started listening, I lean in and he tells me, he's like tells a story, he's saying,
9
00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:57,520
well he basically, he had a client.
10
00:00:57,520 --> 00:01:06,720
This guy wanted to know like how to actually make it so he can have a good day every day.
11
00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:10,560
And then the dude was like, okay, well, what does a good day look like?
12
00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:16,520
So the client was like, oh, if I get, if I make a lot of phone calls, if I make a lot
13
00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:18,520
of sales, blah, blah, blah.
14
00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:23,560
And then the guy was like, whoa, that doesn't tell me anything.
15
00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:26,080
Put a number to each of those things.
16
00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:35,520
So the guy was like, okay, if I make 500 phone calls, 200 sales, this amount of work done,
17
00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:38,000
like that was the numbers.
18
00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:43,280
So basically that's a good day for him.
19
00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:45,000
Like that's a great day for him.
20
00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:50,160
And then he went through and wrote down like all the numbers for a bad day, a good day,
21
00:01:50,160 --> 00:01:51,760
and a great day.
22
00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:58,560
And so I'm just like, oh, whatever, because I just got done with like three great amazing
23
00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:02,840
days in a row where I like recorded very good.
24
00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:04,280
I'm getting better at my recording.
25
00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:08,040
I'm learning a lot of skills like three great days in a row.
26
00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:10,280
So I'm just like, I don't need this stuff.
27
00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:12,640
I'm a man.
28
00:02:12,640 --> 00:02:19,960
I got three great days in a row and I'm going to get a great one in the next day.
29
00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:22,560
So I finish watching the video and I'm just like, okay, whatever.
30
00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:25,960
I don't take any action because I'm too good for that.
31
00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:27,840
I don't need that.
32
00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:34,480
So the next day rolls around and it was not a good day.
33
00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:42,200
Like I got probably half of the amount of stuff done that day than I did the day before.
34
00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:47,720
Even though I still like recorded, I still practice and all this stuff, which in, if
35
00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:54,120
you would have asked me, if I would have had that day like maybe six months ago, I would
36
00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:55,880
have been like, yeah, that was a great day.
37
00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:58,320
But nowadays, no, that's not a good day.
38
00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:04,200
So I'm like, what's, like, I feel like I'm like wandering.
39
00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:08,600
I'm like, well, how do I even know how to get a good day?
40
00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:12,240
And so I'm just like, but I don't put like words to it.
41
00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:15,040
I'm just like, I had a bad day.
42
00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:17,760
And I just kind of acted like it was out of my control.
43
00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:21,320
Like I didn't really, it wasn't really my fault.
44
00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:25,640
Like I don't really know how to have a good day consistently.
45
00:03:25,640 --> 00:03:29,960
And so I just went on with my day and I was like, that was a bad day.
46
00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:32,880
Like, come on, I got to do better.
47
00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:37,920
So the next day rolls down and have another bad day.
48
00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:43,640
Like I still get a decent amount of work done, but it's just not as much as the three days
49
00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:45,200
in a row that I did before.
50
00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:48,960
So I'm like, come on, like why?
51
00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:50,760
I feel like I'm wandering now again.
52
00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:55,320
Like now I'm not going to be making as much progress as I, as I should be.
53
00:03:55,320 --> 00:04:01,680
And now it's going to take a lot longer to achieve my goals if I even achieve them at
54
00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:02,800
this rate.
55
00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:08,640
And then it wasn't until during my like nighttime, pondering session where I literally just like
56
00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:14,600
sit in my room and stare at a wall for like 30 to 40 minutes every day that this thought
57
00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:15,600
popped up in my head.
58
00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:18,720
I'm like, define your perfect day.
59
00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:20,720
That thought literally just appeared in my mind.
60
00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:22,280
And I was like, boom, boom.
61
00:04:22,280 --> 00:04:26,080
Like my heart just pumped and I was like, that's it.
62
00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:27,080
And I remembered that video.
63
00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:32,200
I was like, okay, in the morning I'm going to define my perfect day.
64
00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:37,520
And then I sat there for like five more minutes and I was like, no, screw that.
65
00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:39,080
That's procrastination.
66
00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:43,680
And so I took out my notebook right then and there and I was like, here's my perfect day.
67
00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:46,400
And I literally wrote down every single thing.
68
00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:50,120
Like I have numbers backing it.
69
00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:51,280
And that was last night.
70
00:04:51,280 --> 00:04:54,200
So I have my perfect day right now.
71
00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:59,520
So now I'm way more clear on what a good day looks like.
72
00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:01,320
So that means going into the day.
73
00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:03,840
I can expect that that's the standard.
74
00:05:03,840 --> 00:05:06,800
Like that is what I'm going to be doing that day.
75
00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:12,640
It's a big game changer because now I'm like, okay, well, now I got to do this much.
76
00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:21,960
Like my every day for the past couple of months, I've been literally writing squares, like check
77
00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:24,320
marks kind of to do list.
78
00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:30,480
I don't know if you can see it very well, but I basically like draw squares and then
79
00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:34,480
on the thing, the like what it's called.
80
00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:36,360
And then once I'm done, I check it off.
81
00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:38,240
So it's like a to do list.
82
00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:43,560
And I usually do that like the night before or the morning when I first start.
83
00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:44,960
And like that's good.
84
00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:50,200
But if I don't know what a perfect day is, I can't really tell if this is enough work
85
00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:51,200
for the day.
86
00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:55,680
And then by the time I'm done like working and I close my computer, I'm like already
87
00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:56,680
done.
88
00:05:56,680 --> 00:06:03,360
So I, I just like, I got like the next thing on my routine to do, which is like learning
89
00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:08,480
about how to actually get better at this, which is really important too.
90
00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:11,160
So it's like to find your perfect day.
91
00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:15,840
But before you can even do that, you have to figure out like, what's the one skill that
92
00:06:15,840 --> 00:06:17,240
you have to actually build?
93
00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:23,680
So for me, the one skill that I have to actually build is being great on camera.
94
00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:26,040
And that has a lot of sub skills.
95
00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:32,000
So it's like your influence, your storytelling, your like the way you speak personality, like
96
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:36,600
what you're saying, everything, like that has a lot of different sub tiers.
97
00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:38,840
But like the one skill is you go down camera.
98
00:06:38,840 --> 00:06:45,960
Like the, the, my, you've heard of the 80, 20 principle where 20% of your actions cause
99
00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:48,960
the most results, 80% of the results.
100
00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:55,720
So my like most important task that's going to cause 80% of my results and 80% of my increase
101
00:06:55,720 --> 00:07:00,960
on skills is this, literally just practicing my recording.
102
00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:04,320
Like sitting in my basement practicing.
103
00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:13,720
So this is exactly what like the main bulk of my day's work should be because that's
104
00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:19,160
what is the differentiator between me and someone who's successful at YouTube.
105
00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:22,800
They are just better on camera.
106
00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:28,400
So I'm sitting there at night, I'm like, okay, well, I know, I know what I gotta do to go
107
00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:32,920
down camera, so I know what needs to be done to get good at camera.
108
00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:34,440
So you just got to practice.
109
00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:41,160
So when I'm going through the first box of the most important thing per day is literally
110
00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:43,360
have an intentional practice.
111
00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:50,400
And I put a number to it, five episodes or five recordings, literally just record five
112
00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:59,560
times intentionally and have an idea of what you're going to like work on before you even
113
00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:00,560
start.
114
00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:11,720
So like literally just I have right here written down on my journal, all of the different things
115
00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:13,000
for a YouTuber.
116
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:19,040
So it's your story, your personality and the way you speak.
117
00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:21,160
That's like the basic three things.
118
00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:22,600
And then under it, there's different things.
119
00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:29,360
So there's in the way of you speak, there's rate of speech, volume, melody, tonality and
120
00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:30,840
pause.
121
00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:36,120
So that's something I'm working on right now is the way you speak because it's really
122
00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:37,120
important.
123
00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:41,960
There's this guy, Vin Gang, I don't know if I pronounced his last name right, but this
124
00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:43,520
guy's a beast.
125
00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:50,480
Look him up on YouTube and study him because he is an excellent speaker.
126
00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:56,960
I saw a couple videos of him a couple, like maybe a year ago, I didn't really think much
127
00:08:56,960 --> 00:09:02,200
of him, just like one or two like shorts or TikToks or whatever.
128
00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:08,040
So I recognize him, but when he came up on my feed recently, I was actually looking for
129
00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:09,540
these tips.
130
00:09:09,540 --> 00:09:13,680
And this guy's a beast, he's got lots of important things.
131
00:09:13,680 --> 00:09:18,200
And I learned about all of these five different things on the way you speak from him.
132
00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:23,800
And I also learned about vocal training, literally like training your vocal cords from him.
133
00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:40,840
So look into that guy, he's really good.
