How to Find Your Motivation vs. Amateur Vlogger Mistakes: Which video would you rather watch? | Patreon Exclusive (Patreon)

Hey guys,
I hope you're all having a great week so far and you enjoyed our recent outing to the Haunted Inn in the latest video. (Although to be fair, the real horror was surely Ryotaro's face).

Unsurprisingly, given the terrifyingly apocalyptic headlines about the Coronavirus, I've been receiving a truck load of messages and questions about it in the past few weeks.  And so in tomorrow's Patreon vlog I'll discuss the ongoing situation in Japan and the actual effect it's had (which admittedly, has been significant).

I'll also be talking about Japanese hotel chains that I recommend and don't recommend and sharing with you the clip of a throughly delighted Pete Donaldson receiving his long awaited "Certified Japanophile" certificate. All that in Saturday's Patreon vlog!

BUT before that, I need you to CHOOSE YOUR OWN ADVENTURE with the BELOW POLL and decide which Patreon Exclusive video you'd rather watch next week. In case you missed it last month, I'm currently releasing my entire series from the TC Learn platform here on Abroad in Japan Patreon as bonus content, given that the platform never fully launched and many great educational videos I worked on have been sitting locked away in a room until now.

Last month we had "Understanding the Japanese Mindset" (watch it here) and this month you can choose between the following:

- Amateur Mistakes Vloggers Make When Starting Youtube
Vloggers typically make the same common mistakes when starting a channel; I cover what they are and how to get around them. Ideal if you're looking to start a Youtube channel some day and quickly grow a brand.

- How to Find Your Motivation in the Long Term
At the the age of 18 I was shy, aimless, unmotivated and fairly pessimistic about my future. Yet somehow in a three year period I randomly moved to Japan, started a Youtube channel and reinvented myself after finding a sense of motivation. In this video I discuss how motivation is a lot easier to find if we think long term.

The video you choose on the poll will be available to watch here on Wednesday 26th February.

Looking forward to seeing what you decide on (and if this poll feature actually works, given it's my first time to use it).

And keep an eye out for the Patreon vlog on Saturday!
