The Maxi 30 Day Creator Challenge
Part 1. M
​ indset
Add this to your ​Master Vision:
By the 1, of December, 2020, [first name here] will be making $10,000 per
months from his/her youtube channel. In exchange for this money, [first name
here] will provide [adjectives to describe your YouTube videos, inspiring,
funny, etc] YouTube videos in the highest possible quality and most necessary
possible quantity. [first name here] is excited to share his/her work with the
world in furthering her mission to [insert mission here ]
Listen to your Master Vision before bed at night if you want to win in life. We focus on
accumulating Money over subscribers because Money is causal to subscribers.
Focusing on subscriber count means you are valuing attention and eyeballs overvalue.
Money means you are providing enough value that people are willing to support you to
continue creating content. For a while, I focused on Subscriber count, but I can assure
you that it will lead you down a less direct path toward the actual manifestation of
your dreams.
Part 2: A
​ ction
Here are your assignments. Do them starting now. The purpose of this challenge is to simply
get you taking action. There is no failure except quitting.
Day 1:
Get over your fear. Pick up your camera or phone. Press record. Say something.
Literally anything. Upload it to YouTube, Instagram, and/or Tik Tok.
Notes:
◻Check when​ ​completed
Day 2:
Find your favorite creator on Social Media. Who’s content do you like watching
the most? Go to their content and navigate to one of their most popular pieces.
Pick one that you like and replicate it. If you don’t have the resources that they
do, just try to do your best to capture the elements you like the most. For
example, if you want to make a fitness YouTube channel, copy your favorite
fitness YouTuber’s top ab workout. Copy how they do their intro, the
thumbnail, everything but with your own twist to it.

Day 3:
The objective of this assignment is to learn basic storytelling. Story structure
typically has 3 parts.
a. 3 Act Story Structure:
i.
Act 1 establishes Who What When Where Why… What is going on
and where?
ii.
Act 2 begins the plot which is usually centered around some type
of conflict. The best stories establish a character that has a desire
he or she is trying to fulfill. The story is about whether or not that
character achieves that aim. Search videos on YouTube to learn
more about storytelling. Casey Neistat has an excellent video on it
I would highly recommend.
iii.
Act 3 is the resolution.
b. Tell a story on social media.

Day 4:
Release a piece of content with ONLY music over the top, no talking. Make the
video the length of the song. It can be a vlog where you tell the story visually, or
just a cinematic video where you try to capture a general vibe.
Notes:
◻Check when​ ​completed
Day 5:
The topic of this video does not matter. Focus looking directly into the camera
lens. Hold eye contact with the lens at least 80% of the time. Do not use the
viewfinder. You will become a much more captivating person online when you
start looking your viewer in the eye as if you were standing right in front of
them.

Notes:

Day 10:
Come up with a three episode series. There is a lot of freedom with this. You can
do a three part educational series, a three part high school or college advice
series, or a 3 part episodic series like a netflix show or something where there is
a cliffhanger. Try to follow three act story telling for each piece of content.
Notes:
◻Check when​ ​completed
Day 11:
Ask yourself the question, what if people had to pay $100 to watch my YouTube
video today? How would I make their experience worth it? This sounds like an
absurd question but it will push you to make everything you do more
purposeful. Your mind will look at your content from a new angle.

Alright, we are now a third of the way through your 30 day Challenge.
For the next 19 days, I would like you to start applying the 80/20 principle.
Ask yourself the following questions and then take action.
What 20% of the content I have made so far have produced 80% of the views?
What 20% of the content I have made so far have resulted in 80% of my happiness?
In other words… which content did you like making the most that your audience also
liked watching?
Now for the next 19 days, create a piece of content every day. You may refer back to
the first fifteen challenges for ideas of what to film. Get creative. Once you finish
these thirty missions, repeat this 80/20 analysis. Which pieces of content did you
create that produced the most results. This is the cycle of success. Action Action
Action… Evaluate… Action Action Action…
