I love YouTube as a platform. I think it enables people to scale their ideas, scale what's in their brain without needing permission. Just literally go and analyze five or 10 channels in your niche. Look at the highest performing videos with that popular videos,. See what the common facts are like brain sun from there. What should somebody be looking at when they're looking at the most popular video? So there's three things that I just did like a Twitter thread on this today - direct abstraction, indirect extrapolation and abstract extrapolation.
Jamie Rawsthorne was a YouTuber. He built up a channel of more than 900,000 subscribers as one-half of the Zac & Jay Show… and then left the channel to find purpose.
