20 habits for your 20s

A thread...

Habit 1:
Smile at the mirror

20s is the decade of self doubt. Where we feel inadequate, incomplete, lost.

The simple habit of smiling at the mirror, makes me drop my emotions in that moment.

And acknowledge me, for who I am.

Habit 2:
Make your bed
Starts your day with a small accomplishment.

Growing up, the 4 of us used to sleep together in the drawing room, since it had a cooler.

It was my job to make everyone's bed.
It was the last thing I did every night and the first every morning.
Still do it.

Habit 3:
Take the first 30 mins of your morning, for yourself

Don't start it with your phone.
Or with a person.
Or with a book.
Or the toilet.

Just you, your thoughts, some lasting memory of your dreams.

You will appreciate the power of slowing down.

Habit 4:
Call people by their names

Few things makes a person feel included, than hearing their name in a conversation.
Remember, consciously, to include their names, as you speak to them.

You will earn their respect, their attention and their trust.

If you are an aspiring Content Creator or just curious to know how Creators actually sustain themselves, read on.

Disclaimer: I have tagged a few creators ONLY as References & examples for the points mentioned.

1. PLATFORM REVENUE: YouTube runs ads in the videos uploaded by the creators & shares a part of the Ad-revenue with the Creators!
Lately Facebook has also started doing this.
This model provides good revenue for the creators.

Ajey Nagar @CarryMinati & Amit @iAmitBhadana are two of the top YouTube earners (owning to the volume of subscribers) and Aakash Chopra @cricketaakash & Nas @nasdaily are two of the top creators on Facebook.

2. BRAND DEALS: The most common & also the highest revenue generators for Creators - BRANDS! Brands pay creators to promote or integrate their products in the content released on public platforms.
