How content you didn’t really want your channel to be centered around?

I notice my fitness related content performs the best on my channel and I have a feeling if I post nothing but fitness content consistently, my channel will experience massive growth. The problem is while I like fitness, I don’t want to center my channel around that niche. I honestly didn’t think my fitness content would perform well because the fitness space is so saturated but after posting for nearly 10 years, I’m willing to lean into anything that might get this channel monetized.

It seems that lots of millennials are finding a sense of contentment and success in their mid to late 30s. maybe even 40s. I’ve seen and heard so many millennials go through so many trials and tribulations in their 20s and early 30s. Being a generation who probably dealt with the most pressure to go to college, lots of millennials are/were drowning in debt. I also think millennials are the first generation to truly — as a collective—combat traditional constructs like marriage, religion, procreation and accepting abuse from family toxic members. I know Gen X and Boomers technically got the ball rolling as far as combatting constructs, but if any one of other generations challenged these things, it was viewed as taboo because the collective generation generally wasn’t on board. Say whatever you want, but I think millennials have made challenging tradition far less taboo.

From trying to break generational family curses, to being overwhelmed with the toxicity of fake friends, to not truly feeling a sense of belonging at most jobs they’ve worked — it’s no wonder why traditional so-called “milestones” like marriage and children are of least importance to many millennials. When you spend the early half of your life just trying to find some peace whilst barely surviving , once you finally get your big break, you’re not so eager to dive into whatever role society tells you you should play. I think this is why lots of millennials choose to have children later in life if at all. (Nothing wrong with choosing to not have children.) when you spend so many years struggling, you just want to kick back and enjoy some of the things you didn’t get a chance to enjoy or experience earlier in life.

As a smaller content creator, one of the things I sometime struggle with is motivation to create content. I’ll mentally try to prepare to create something then say “why bother? It won’t get any views or engagement.” I know there are people who say you should “create and post because you love it” and that “views should matte” and to an extent that’s true. I think you should create content you truly love creating or and are passionate about, but the whole point up uploading is so others can see it. Whether you do it to make friends, for money, to form business connections, whatever. The point of posting content is to share it with the world, but if you’re not getting an iota of the energy you put into your content back, it’s only understandable to not be so motivated to create. Oppositely, if you’re getting lots of engagement, I’m sure it only enhances the creative energy and gives motivation a boost.

Their rise is a reflection of the gullibility of society rather than actual intelligence on their part.

Seriously. Even millennial men with gray hair have managed to retain their youthful facial features. Many millennials in their mid 30s can pass for 19yrs old to somewhere in their 20s. I think the oldest wave of millennials are in their early 40s now right?Dye or cut the gray hairs/beard and many of them can pass for late 20s to early 30s.

EDIT: Okay, maybe saying many millennials can pass for 19 years old is a stretch (even though I’ve met a few who could) but I stand by everything else. I agree with some of the points made in the comments. I think for a long time people have had a distorted concept of what the average 30 to 45 year old person looks like or is “supposed” to look like. People (mostly early 20 year olds and younger) for whatever reason think 30 to 45 years old is geriatric age when in actuality, a 30 to 45 year old person isn’t that old. Yes, most millennials simply look their age, but you can’t deny that adults today look a lot more youthful than adults in prior generations. I think that’s why the stigma behind “millennials look younger for their age” comes from. I truly think millennials are the 1st generation to REALLY look significantly more youthful than all generations prior.
