<div class="bbWrapper">I paid for it, I will have a completed pc in 6 days from now. <br /> New obstacle: there is the fact that YT prefer clips longer than 10 mins and must have clickable content. No I can only make a 3s long clip per day, so if I posted it, 99.9 % it will be buried --&gt; change to do practice in TT or YT shorts first, change to slide animatiob to be able to make 10s clip per day.</div>

 

[Leona Ta]

<div class="bbWrapper"><b>New addtional motto: &quot;Finish what you started&quot;.</b></div>

 

[Leona Ta]

<div class="bbWrapper">In the time of waiting for a new pc, I set a target to use phone to make and upload a short 30s clip on TT everyday to practice voice over. So far I have post two clips, the quality were very very &quot;junior&quot; but I had fun while doing it.<br /> And, I joined a Korean beginner class 3 evenings per week, to make new friends and change the environment a little bit. It was fun too.</div>

 

[Leona Ta]

<div class="bbWrapper">I made 4 clips so far, the funny thing is my 1 clip got 5 views but the second one got more than a hundred in 2 days. Anyway, I will keep on practicing by making a 30s clip per day. <br /> I found out a free software that can be used to compose song, with very simple and easy to use interface even for a person with no knowledge like me, so I will try to make my first own song, this will be my A3.</div>

 

[Leona Ta]

<div class="bbWrapper">New PC and monitor arrived, now I can draw freely T.T</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">The AE software crashed because I have no graphic card (as it&#039;s sky rocket, people buy card to dig Bitcoin) so I can&#039;t make animation video T.T --&gt; Change to make filming video in the time waiting for the price of graphic cards to cool down.</div>

 

[Leona Ta]

<div class="bbWrapper">The video editing PR is crashed as well --&gt; I will use Power Point to make video instead. I also make a new YT channel, first step is to practice by making a simple short clip everyday.</div>

 

[Leona Ta]

<div class="bbWrapper">New Covid wave hit my city heavily...Im worried, my mood is down, now I can&#039;t focus on learning, just want to be safe.</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">I&#039;m glad you posted. I was wondering if you were still looking to move forward. I&#039;m sorry the struggle has been harder than expected. Sometimes life sets these obstacles before us and we must find ways to persevere and overcome. The challenges make us stronger to better face our future. <br /> <br /> Keep trying. Don&#039;t give up.</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">I&#039;m back. Health is ok now but I may be in a depression.<br /> I am supposed to find a new job but I feel like dont want to do a similar job with what I did for the last 12 years. I did it to earn money and didnt care much about how I wanted to live. Now I think I should do something for myself, the way I want it, but also fear I can&#039;t make anough money to feed my family if I do it that way. Many books and clips from other people telling their stories and advices, I am inspired but some how there is something missing in their stories make me feel it is not for me, and I dont what it is?</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">What do I want to do if I can only live for 6 months? What do I want to do if I won a lottery? What do I want to do if I will never fail?....I asked myself these kind of questions, try mediation to image the perfect future that I love to have...but all I can see this present life, I cant figure out what else that I want. May be I need more experience from outside, but with the Covid situation like this, I can only stay in my house. What to do?</div>

 

[BizyDad]

<div class="bbWrapper">First things first, you have to be able to take care of basic needs. You get to decide what that means and how to do it, but it probably means getting a job. You decide whether to take care of family or not, but I&#039;m guessing that is likely a yes also. <br /> <br /> So get as high paying job as you can with as flexible hours as possible. You got to start somewhere, so don&#039;t be afraid to get one job, but keep looking for another better job that will fit this criteria.<br /> <br /> Use any extra time or money you have towards building a new business. Once your business can support your family, quit the job. <br /> <br /> Also, one thing I always asked myself when trying to decide what job or business to get into. What kind of conversations will I have everyday in this role?<br /> <br /> I&#039;m an extrovert. I knew I didn&#039;t want to take on the kinds of jobs that meant I&#039;d never talk to anybody. But I also didn&#039;t want to take any jobs on where the conversations were going to be completely boring to me. As long as I&#039;m having interesting conversations, I generally like what I&#039;m doing for a living. This worked out pretty well for me, as I&#039;ve enjoyed pretty much everything I&#039;ve done for the last 25 years.<br /> <br /> Hope that helps.</div>
