- I am not Casey Neistat.
-
I'm not Jenna Marbles.
-
I'm not PewDiePie.
-
I'm not iJustine.
-
I'm not MKBHD
-
I'm not any of those people.
-
I'm not anyone you're thinking of other than me.
-
I am Amy Schmittauer, and I do me.
-
Does that mean I should stop?
-
Does that mean I don't get to do what I love?
-
Does that mean my message isn't important?
-
Does that mean it's time to give up?
-
Does that mean I don't get to vlog like a boss?
-
Nope.
-
It doesn't mean any of those things.
-
It just means I'm me, and I'm doing me.
-
So do you.
-
If you were bold enough to start, keep going.
-
If you love what you do, stop letting others decide
-
whether or not you're worthy of it.
-
It's so easy to compare yourself to others
-
because we've basically been programmed
-
to design our success around vanity metrics
-
like likes and views and followers.
-
And sure, those might factor in a little bit,
-
but they are not everything,
-
and if they are everything to you
-
and that's your metric for success, go to town,
-
but they are not everything for me,
-
and I really don't think that they are everything for you.
-
That is not what makes you happy.
-
That's not why you're doing what you're doing.
-
That's not why you are brave enough
-
to get on camera and talk.
-
And if you haven't yet, that's okay.
-
I'm giving you permission to be brave enough to talk.
-
'Cause you're not talking to a camera.
-
You're talking to a person.
-
That person needs to hear you.
-
And the commentators, they're only as valuable
-
as the time they're spending tearing other people down
-
instead of building something of their own.
-
Are the commentators your person?
-
Are they the person you're doing this for?
-
Then why are you listening to them?
-
I'm not.
-
Do you?
-
But the active word here is do.
-
Please, just do.
-
No one else is going to be in your corner
-
as much as you need to be right now, period.
-
They're gonna jump on the bandwagon
-
when it's convenient for them,
-
but they won't be around while you're under construction.
-
Get used to it.
-
I am not Casey Neistat,
-
and neither are you.
-
So do you.
-
Do you, please.
