This is how to become a content creator without letting it take over your entire life. In honor of the fact that it is currently 1AM, I got back from New York this morning. I have an exam in ten hours. Cheers. Now the first thing you need to do is pick an effortless format. The more production, script writing, and editing that you need for your content, the less likely you will be able to keep up with it when other things in your life get crazy. For example, I would have totally let an exam or travel get in the way of me filming, but but because my TikToks only take maximum thirty minutes to make and my Instagram reels tier maximum sixty minutes to make, I knew it wouldn't be too much of a hurdle going in, and tier I am. Now I personally love doing talking heads. Maybe you prefer to take b roll and do voiceovers, or maybe you best prefer to write on LinkedIn. It's going to take some trial and error to figure out, but the way you choose to create and deliver your content needs to be efficient and enjoyable for you. Now the second thing you need to do is align your content with your life. You do not take on a completely different lifestyle the second you become a content creator. Instead, you should draw from the experiences that you already having. Whether it's from your friends, from your work, from your favorite TV show, whatever it is, you're always inputting new information better day. These are the thoughts that you need to actually learn how to capture for your content. For example, if you work in marketing, you're constantly learning about new campaigns. If you're super into self improvement, you're constantly looking for more ways to grow. Whoever you might better single day, you need to learn to capture one idea, just one. Write it in no, do a voice memo on your phone, and build that habit of capturing your thoughts every single day. Day three is complete, and if you're still watching, wish me luck on my psych exam. Bye.
