I'm getting more negative comments as i grow and it's really affecting me. someone called my content "basic" and "unoriginal" yesterday and i've been thinking about it non-stop

How do you deal with criticism without letting it destroy your confidence? do you respond to negative comments or ignore ...

I want to eventually quit my job and do content creation full time but I'm scared to make the leap. my content makes about $500/month right now and my salary is $65k

At what point is it safe to quit and go full time? and how do you make that transition without totally screwing yourself financially?

I feel like my content sounds generic. I watch it back and it could be anyone talking, there's nothing that makes it distinctly "me"

How do you develop a unique voice and style? i want people to recognize my content immediately but i don't know how to get there

I'm starting to take content creation seriously and i can't decide if i should use my real name or create a brand name/pseudonym

Using my real name feels more authentic but also makes me nervous about privacy. A brand name feels safer but maybe less personal

What did you choose and why?

I want to build a personal brand but I work 9-6 every day and i'm exhausted by the time i get home. Weekends are for errands and catching up on life

How do people with full time jobs find time to consistently create content and build a brand? i feel like i'm already maxed out on time

I've been told that consistency is key for personal branding but I'm not exactly sure what that means. consistent posting schedule? consistent visual style? consistent message?

What aspects of consistency actually matter and which are less important?

I keep feeling like a fraud even though people seem to like my content. i have 2,500 followers and i'm giving advice on productivity but i still struggle with productivity myself sometimes

Who am i to be teaching this stuff when i don't have it all figured out? i see other creators who seem so ...

I'm really camera shy and i've been avoiding showing my face in my content. i've been making faceless videos with voiceovers and text overlays

but i'm wondering if this is limiting my growth. Do I need to show my face to build a real personal brand? or can faceless creators be successful too?

I'm in the personal finance niche and I feel like I'm saying the same things as thousands of other creators. budgeting, saving, investing... it's all been done a million times

How do you differentiate yourself when your niche is saturated? i don't want to just be another generic finance creator but ...

I've been creating content for 3 months and I'm all over the place. One week i'm posting about fitness, next week it's productivity tips, then I'm making comedy skits. My audience is confused and i'm not growing

Everyone says "find your niche" but how do you actually figure out what your niche ...
