tom and i happened to meet right before he started his youtube journey. check out this email he sent me on August 20, 2017:
āDon't know even where to begin on this one, but I feel like it's important for me to actually push myself towards building my own YouTube channel. You gave me the kick in the pants I needed, and on top of that, if my 11 year old self knew that I could make movies and share them with LITERALLY THE ENTIRE WORLD FOR FREE, but I wasn't doing it, he'd be pretty disappointed and confused.Ā
Money/subscribers/views aren't the goal. Obviously there's a certain sweet spot I'd like to hit where it doesn't feel totally pointless, but beyond that, I'm mostly tired of being a creator who doesn't create, and to tie it into work, it will help me better understand the thing I teach.
In your opinion, why would anyone want to watch? What would be an effective way to frame my story/perspective/ideas/whateveryouwanttocallit? I definitely do want to keep things genuine and authentic.ā
tom, it brings a tear to my eye to know that both your 11 year old self and your 2017 self would be so proud of where you are now. š„¹ you did it. you ARE doing it.šš¼ you gave yourself the chance. you pushed through. you never gave up. every day, you inspire me with how dedicated and creative you are. you really do light up when you are teaching, empowering, and sharing your excitement. itās been the greatest joy to be a part of your journey. š
tom is gear focused but ever since he was a high school teacher, itās always been about helping people use these tools to discover their voice, share their passion, and connect with others. since he started his channel, heās made over 500 videos! to be a finalist is a huge milestone and if youād like to support tom, hereās the link! geni.us/tomrode
