Top Comments of this video!! :3
Small tip that I learned from another YouTuber (Caroline Winkler). As someone who struggles with ADHD and Executive Dysfunction, it's really hard to motivate myself to do things, even if I really WANT to do them. Her advice has really helped me a lot, even in a state of panic and anxiety.
Ask yourself: Can I physically do this one task?
If the answer is yes, it takes all the emotional turmoil out of the equation for me. I take literally each step I need to do at a time at face value. If it is a physical thing I can do, I focus on it until the next step and it just rolls one into the other until I have a whole video on YouTube out for everyone to see.
May not work for everyone, but breaking it down instead of trying to categorize everything I need to do all at once and having a mental breakdown really helps with my own abilities and I'm hoping the same advice can help anyone reading this, too :3

I AM a financial and tax expert and you did an EXCELLENT job explaining business, taxes, and finance. You gave some of the same advice I give new business owners. Great job! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 The ONLY thing I would add is to set aside money once a year to hire a CPA for tax PLANNING. All good CPAs always pay for themselves.

Im also 22. I just decided to finally take the leap to starting selling my work. I've never sold any art even though many friends and family members have suggested I should do, and that they would buy my work. I've struggled with low confidence since I was a kid. But If I don't start now, then I never will.

OK, I am a lady who followed my passion and turned it into a career. I retired early and now just hobby work. Your level of business sophistication, savvy, and professionalism is astounding. First, kudos to your parents. Clearly they did an incredible job parenting. Your comprehension of business is spot on. Great advice for your followers. I'm so thrilled to have seen this video. You will always be able work as a consultant, if you choose to because your value to companies is off the charts. Thank you for sharing.

You sound so much like my daughter. She came to me at 16 y/o wanting to start her own creative business, and I have been helping her along. She is now running an Etsy shop, but finds that when she gets in front of people at shows and fairs, she does a lot better. Etsy is good at vacuuming up the $$ in the corners of the room. It is a lot of work, and diversifying is a critical part of success. It is good hard work. Best of luck!

"I finally understood that they (parents) still love me no matter what, that I'm worthy of love. Even though I'm not exceptional." UGH that hit home so hard, currently I'm in the exact same boat and trying to work on myself to not let my fear of failure or imperfection keep me from even trying to do stuff. Thanks for sharing that 💗

It probably took you so much bravery and thoughtfulness to make this video — talking about money and profit in the smol art space (especially cute art) is hard because people tend to look down upon & doubt a career in this space. But I’m grateful you did it! Thank you for taking your hard work and success and turning them into inspiration for everyone 💖

You are so eloquent & smarts at just 22 years of age. When I was 22, I was so naive, scared, insecure, gullible & hopeless. It took me a long time working & being out there in the world to learn all the tricks of the trade. It’s very inspiring to see you speak so honestly & encouraging & I wish all the best for you.

Be Careful… Without a rabid fanbase online you won’t sell almost anything, if you do get that far there’s a lot of non-art work. Don’t quit your dayjob until it gets rolling enough to pay expenses and you have a 3-6 month emergency fund. Not everyone who tries can make it so don’t become homeless dropping everything for the dream. Best to you all, good luck! 🌸
