Nothing changes, even after a million views.
Not to be confused or misinterpreted, I’m extremely grateful for multiple videos on my Instagram (@mindoomph) that have over a million views. Coz this actually confirmed that these views really don’t matter that much. Sure, it was a bucket list item that I got to tick off pretty early in my career, but I was left wanting for more. The day my video hit a million, I spent hours staring at that ‘M’, not knowing that another one would hit 3M, then 5M, and then 8M within the next 6 months.
But if you ask me today, all I can think of is what I should post next. My aim as a content creator is to be remembered and inspire people. I know that my voice matters, and what I have to say is worth listening to. I’m able to say this because, right at this moment, the imposter’s syndrome isn’t kicking in.
Sometimes I’m proud of what I’m doing and know that I’m living the dream. Other times I’m proud, but I feel this is going nowhere. I’m proud at all times, because if I don’t cheer for myself at all times, who will? If I’m not my biggest supporter, who will be? I just try not to get consumed by doubts in my head and the harsh reality.
Sometimes this LaLa land is the only place where I want to be.
Until next time, Adios amigo!
