For YouTubers, Twitch streamers, and Facebook pages, especially those of gaming video creators like me, I am seeing the opportunity to focus more on what I am giving than what I am receiving because what I pay attention to, seems to grow.
Shift From a Focus on Views and Likes to Quality and Interaction
I have noticed the unhappiest parts of my life included a huge focus on "what do I want?" and "what I am getting?" while the happiest times in my life are "how may I help?" and "who am I helping?"
While today the majority of my life is centered on service and giving, I just noticed that I have an opportunity to withdraw a bit of attention from the number of views and engagement I am getting on each live gaming video which frees my attention to better look at who I am helping.
I am doing this by removing the part of my interface that shows how my reactions and views the video is getting because this is too much of a distraction for me. During the live stream, I am often checking the views and modify my excitement based on the view count.
This kind of thinking leaves me feeling excited after a stream with a lot of views and disappointed when the views are less. When I focus on what I am contributing, I see that the views and reactions are none of my business on each post.
You give back what you want to, based on what I have given in terms of responding to what you have to say and the presence/vibe I bring to the stream. If you think this might be a minor detail, try applying it to something most important like a relationship.
