#13 - On Hard Work and Isolation

Some explanation on my earlier video on no-lifeing Japanese for a month. It's not about motivation, it's about the discipline to push through even when "you don't feel like it" OG video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AF3nk2xWPTQ __________________________________________________________________________________ Follow Me @ Substack: https://casualvince.substack.com/ Twitch: https://twitch.tv/casualvince Twitter: https://twitter.com/CasualVince Instagram: https://instagram.com/CasualVince __________________________________________________________________________________

#11 - Reflecting on Video Editing and Perfectionism

After making that college video, something felt so great about being in the zone and just creating for the sake of creating.

#10 - Building a Digital Presence

Based Camp Pod: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xFLwFH9QFYE My Old Reddit Post: https://www.reddit.com/r/UIUC/comments/gxuaeu/schedule_check/ Talking a bit about why I'm trying to building a following/presence online. Beyond the "become famous/an influencer" typical of the space, there's the advantage of building at a network oriented towards whatever niche you're offering. Even if that only scales to a few hundred people, that's still a lot of people. __________________________________________________________________________________ Follow Me @ Substack: https://casualvince.substack.com/ Twitch: https://twitch.tv/casualvince Twitter: https://twitter.com/CasualVince Instagram: https://instagram.com/CasualVince __________________________________________________________________________________

#8 - On Materialism and Other Matters

O'Connor McGilchrist Podcast: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q16ARIpxlPQ If it's not already clear this podcast is more or less a video diary. Just like everyone else, I'm trying to determine the direction of my life at the moment. The major contemplation at the moment is the limitations of materialism. __________________________________________________________________________________ Follow Me @ Substack: https://casualvince.substack.com/ Twitch: https://twitch.tv/casualvince Twitter: https://twitter.com/CasualVince Instagram: https://instagram.com/CasualVince __________________________________________________________________________________

#7 - To Edit or Not To Edit, That is the Question

Just a bunch of ranty thoughts on editing for a solo podcast or not. I think it comes down to authenticity to me, so the less editing the better (only in the context of podcasting, not if I wanna make a different kind of video).

#6 - On Comment Sections

Substack Essay: https://casualvince.substack.com/p/on-comment-sections?r=lq8wl Inspired by Paul VanderKlay, I decided get out of lurkdom and start commenting on videos again. And ever since I saw Just Some Guy without a Mustache, a YouTube channel with hundreds of thousands of subscribers through commenting alone, I knew I had to talk about the impact of YouTube comment sections. Despite most users being silent lurkers, comments shape conversations and impact content in surprising ways.

#5 - Planning, Planning, and More Planning

Substack Essay: https://casualvince.substack.com/p/re-evaluating-life-goals?r=lq8wl Reflecting on my successful planning in an academic and career sense, but where I'm lacking when it comes to more self-motivated progress in hobbies.

#4 - On Claims of Truth

Substack essay: https://casualvince.substack.com/p/on-truth-claims?r=lq8wl JBP Podcast: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T0KgLWQn5Ts I thought I was done talking about Christianity and religion for the time being, but this Jordan Peterson podcast had me thinking about it a little more. Here's my reaction to a few bits of that podcast.
