how to be a streamer:

stream
keep doing it
keep putting effort in and dont expect anything back

luck is opportunity and preparation

set boundaries and guidelines for yourself

be your own worst critic and also your own best friend

if you make promises, try to keep them

communicate

be consistent

celebrate achievements of yourself and others

sometimes you have to learn to do things yourself because you dont have other options

first time you make something it might be garbage to you - but even oscar the grouch loves trash so its probably fine - just keep working on it

overworking yourself will break ur vibes

self-deprecating can unintentionally kill your motivation or enthusiasm to do something

if you go "why bother trying" you need to kick that mentality out and try, even if you expect failure

ALSO do not sacrifice your life to stream.

find a balance for it and find out what is "worth it" for you.

figure out what "success" means for you and start small - then celebrate when you reach those. personal goals are good too!

my balance rn is 3 days a week for 4 hrs each for stream!

could i do more? probably! would it stress me out? also probably!

ive got other commitments that i need to do as well, im not going to sacrifice those!

final note thing is that your words and expressions may have additional meaning that you dont realize when you use them

theres a big difference between saying "i did this!" and "we did this"

theres a lot of helpful resources on being a public speaker and communication!

im at the point where this is mostly in my brain

but even i have to schedule my days per hour sometimes if theres a lot going on
