so my best advice for anyone attempting
to be a youtuber wait stop stop wasting
your time it is the holiday season it is
a time for us to be thankful and express
our gratitude so today I want to thank
keemstar from dramaalert for all of my success everybody
this is Chris from the rewired saw where
we talk about the problem but focus on
the solution and if you're new to my
channel my channel is all about mental
health what I like to do is take from my
own experiences as well as YouTube
community news and all of that and try
to teach you how to improve your mental
and emotional well-being
so if any of that make sure you
subscribe and ring that notification
bell so we are going to start out by
saying where I am I guess I don't know
if you've noticed I've had this weird
clicking noise on my mic I spent like
hours trying to figure it out but now
here's what we're gonna do everybody
well the boogers okay cool
so I'm gonna go into my settings anyway
let's jump into a storytime real quick
so last year I started my youtube
channel in I started taking seriously
around July and towards the end of the
year I had a goal I had a goal that I
wanted to hit 500 subscribers by
December 31st 2017
well not long after that in January
YouTube came out with an announcement
all right and they were switching their
partner program and what that means is
they were switching the way they would
let you be a partner which means that
you get hands in your videos so they
said that you by a certain deadline I
can't remember what the deadline was I
said by this date you need to have 1,000
subscribers as well as 4,000
tellers and people were losing it people
were losing it right and it was big news
and everybody's freaking out especially
small youtubers like myself and you know
I was pretty bummed out about it but
then who who who then my man keeps dark
a man my man keemstar from dramaalert came in to
motivate me and here is what he had to
say it's gonna take a couple minutes but
trust me it's worth it so now everyone's
asking me well what advice do you have
for small youtubers quit you cannot make
it in this game anymore alright you're
not going to make it there is way too
much competition you got to understand
this part of the reason why YouTube is
doing this rule where you can't get ads
on your videos unless you have a
thousand subscribers and four hundred
thousand hours of watch time is because
everybody in the goddamn world is
attempting to be a youtuber and there's
millions and millions of millions of
videos being uploaded every goddamn day
and everybody is attempting to put ads
on them now if you have any concept of
supply and demand well there's just not
enough ads to go around if you want to
do YouTube for fun just have fun and see
where it goes
god bless you but if you're doing
YouTube to become a multi-millionaire
and have all this success and be rich
and famous I'm sorry it's just that it's
not gonna happen it's not going to have
it's not going to happen dude
first of all there isn't any original
ideas anymore alright there's no
original concepts anymore and if there
is an original idea it gets stolen and
copied from about 10 other youtubers
like that the minute they see a little
success and because the competition is
so steep and so I you have youtubers
willing to vlog next to dead bodies okay
and you got other youtubers willing to
copy them these mothers are selling
their souls to make it and you think you
can compete against them you can and
it's not like you just have to be
entertaining like that's just gonna work
no dude there's the whole
frickin strategic numbers games behind
it you have to be entertaining you have
to be a mathematician you have to sell
your goddamn soul and do some crazy you
have to be lucky and even if you do all
that you're still probably not gonna
make it so my best advice for anyone
attempting to be a youtuber wait just
stop stop wasting your time this gold
rush is over okay it's gone okay
go to plumber school you'll do better
there trust me so yeah right there I
remember seeing that video I remember
seeing that video on Twitter and I'm
like all right keemstar of drama alert
challenge accepted mother all right like
that's what I want to talk to you guys
about today I just did a collab with my
buddy kay from bipolarpug pause I'm gonna link
that video up in the info card dollar
description I I get fueled by that stuff
I get fueled by people telling me what I
can't do and when somebody like keemstar
was telling me what I couldn't do that
just gave me motivation and drive and
you know what you know what I was able
to hit the 1,000 subscribers and 4,000
watch hours by that deadline earlier
this year
all right most of you watching this
right now I am currently over 33,000
subscribers this year okay so don't let
people like cam Starr tell you what you
can't do use that as motivation use that
as fuel right people like this want to
keep you down because there's less
competition you know what I'm saying
like he was talking about how there's no
more original ideas you have to sell
your soul you have to do all these other
things right
so one of the things is I figured out an
original idea I see it out a way to
teach people about mental health using
things going on in the YouTube community
seem pretty original doesn't look like
anybody else is doing it so that's why
my channel is doing well but but then
keemstar he had to rain on that parade
too right when he said he said but even
if you do have an original idea
someone's gonna come in and steal it
that's one of the issues that's when the
issues that we all face everybody tries
to keep so guarded and they don't want
their amazing ideas to get out there
because somebody's gonna steal it well
let me tell you this all right and it's
funny cuz I was actually talking to my
friend Diane from the channel Diane
Jennings but people are so secretive
about this stuff let me tell you this
people can steal your ideas all they
want but who has more hustle right who's
willing to put in more work who's
willing to do better you know what I
mean
there's channels with less subscribers
than me and don't even reply to their
comments they don't even reply to their
tweets they don't even of their DMS this
is the type of hustle that I have so
this is what I'm telling you like don't
let people keep you down just do better
be better take that as motivation
don't let anybody don't let anybody
especially keemstar tell you what you
can't do and Wow
so cube start told me something else
keemstar told me a little something else
and what this was was I was loved set I
was loved said about keemstar he was on
on that better help scam train right and
he acted like he really cared about
people with mental illness you know and
the thing was and I put it out in
another video
this is the guy who was talking trash on
Demi Lovato after she overdosed right
you need to be a better judge of
character and see if people's actions
line up with their words like when's the
last time you saw Mike keemstar donate a
bunch of money to the American
foundation of suicide prevention when
did you see him donate a bunch of money
to any type of mental health cause in
fact if I'm being honest team saw got a
bunch of backlash for talking quack
about Demi Lovato on Twitter after she
overdosed but now all of a sudden team
star really cares about people in mental
illness oh my god like give me a break
and then and then over his childish
Twitter feud with pokeyman he was
telling people you know to jokingly kill
themselves so I made this tweet right
here calling him out for being a
hypocrite right it's funny because we
were the only that poky Mandy was
talking about being a virtue signaler
and all that but that's kind of what
you're doing when you're pretending like
you care about mental health when you
really don't well anyways I was honored
because he managed to see my tweet then
he tweeted at me
this is mental health advice walk jog
run you sad man so I took this and I
posted it on my Instagram because here's
the next thing
keemstar doesn't think that i'm gonna be
able to walk jog or run and lose this
weight which i'm doing i'm already down
50 pounds since last year but i just
want to let you know let people tell you
what you can't do let people keep
telling you what you cannot do so you
can throw it right back in their face
like i'm sorry this this seems a little
sassy in this video but like i was
talking about in my video with k k
wasn't an abusive relationship and like
we have to take that because we always
have one of two options one of two
options we prove them right or we prove
them wrong and let me tell you this it
feels so much better to prove people
wrong do you guys realize six and a half
years ago people said a guy like me was
never gonna stay sober six and a half
years ago people said a guy like me was
going to die before the age of 30 okay I
took that and rather than rolling over
and giving up I use that as fuel alright
people never thought in a million years
that I would be where I am today so
keeps all I'm sorry but that last part
of your comment is definitely wrong
because I'm not sad I'm one of the
happiest people that you'll ever meet
because every single day I take the hate
that people give me and I turned that
into fuel to help other people and
become a better person myself alright so
I want all of you to go out and do the
same and I want to hear some of your
stories down in the comments below
alright what have you done what if
people told you that you couldn't do I
mean you went out and
let me know down in the comments below
