How did i become a popular creator? A Self Journey and Real Stuff that worked
Posted by on May 5, 2026 at 2:18 pmSo uh yeah over the last three months I've had 14 videos cross roughly like 500K views, a few of them even hit 2M!!!.
Here is stuff that i'd probably like to share with you guys
Stop debating whether to post, just post.
When you start out you have no idea what works. That's fine. Nobody does. I had 0 idea what to post but posted out whatever i felt like maybe someone would have similar humor or feelings as me!!! So just post a lot. It's okay if its not up to the mark. Nobody is watching yet and the ones who are don't matter. Atleast make a move!
Once you start to get what's actually getting any traction in your niche or whatever you are posting about, then slow down and put more effort into each one. It's not a switch you flip, it's a slow shift. I used this app called Social Hunt for a bit to figure out what topics and formats are becoming popular before they peak, so I'm not just putting anything. I also remember using vidIQ for great insights for what i should imporve and a great tool called Tikmatics for catching TikTok audio trends before they got popular. But honestly none of that matters if you're not posting consistently first which I did . So yeah thats the main thing .
Relax. It's literally just numbers on a screen.
Our mindset is litterally everything. You can know every trick and still lose if you let the numbers hurt your feelings. And they will try. A video will flop and it WILL feel personal. It's not guys , it happens to all of us and has happened before.
Social media will beat you up. Especially early. Expect it. The only people who grow are the ones who keep going after getting punched in the face a few times. Make getting better the goal, not the numbers. I see so many popular creators who used to struggle with like 100, 57, 130 , 29 views on youtube shorts instagram . Even if i scrolled down today on them they would still show those low numbers.
Expect this to take two or three years EASILY. Expect it to be harder than you think. Expect plateaus that genuinely hurt. Keep going anyway. You don't need to look at the past or feel bad about today , be yourself!
Learn to tell stories. Be interesting. Make people feel something.
Doesn't matter how good your research is or how early you catch a trend if your content is boring. Learn to be charismatic on camera. Learn to entertain. Give yourself time to develop the skill but actually develop it. Like i am doing today!
That's it. Go post something!!
