Common traits of 'people who should definitely grow but don't' | Call for participants for the 2nd 2-week challenge
It's Rendian!
Yesterday was a hectic day, but
I still managed to stream properly🔥
I also sent a message to Orina-san, who completed the 2-week challenge✨
I plan to make a video about the full details of the 2-week challenge and write about it again on note.
For these past two weeks, watching Orina-san's streams had become part of my daily routine, so I feel a bit lonely.
Since I have an ironclad rule of basically never visiting streams,
it had been a while since I watched a stream so closely.
At times, I gave some quite harsh feedback,
but seeing her move forward without breaking made my heart swell🔥😢
Watching various streamers on note and X, I often think to myself:
'This person would definitely grow if...'
'If they just changed this, they would take off in an instant...'
But there is almost never a good time to just say that directly.
If you step in without being asked,
you might end up destroying the other person's dignity.
That is precisely why
I think Orina-san really did her best.
Succeeding as a streamer is not easy.
It is as difficult as 'starting a company alone and making it successful'.
I often see people write that 'my dream is to release an original song,' but
that itself can be achieved with a few hundred thousand yen.
I don't deny the value of the dream, but
it is a different story from reproducible success.
My dream is to become a 'pro streamer'.
In other words, to consistently earn over 500,000 yen a month.
It's not just about earning money by any means necessary.
Depending on someone who happens to throw big gifts is
not reproducible, and it cannot be called strength.
To succeed as a streamer, you need three pillars:
① Awareness
② Charisma
③ Monetization ability
Only when these three are in place
will you become a streamer who can win on their own.
Recently, a top streamer on ColorSing
has been doing an interesting project.
Inviting other streamers to their own channel,
an initiative to liven up the entire platform.
At first glance, it costs money, but
it is a move designed with awareness, charisma, and monetization in mind,
truly a win-win situation.
I respect it because it's something that cannot be done without experience, know-how, and planning ability.
However, from a streamer's perspective,
just riding on that is meaningless.
It is a harsh world.
If the person themselves lacks charisma or ability,
it will ultimately not lead to results.
If you abandon your own strength, you become dependent on listeners.
I've also seen notes from streamers who set target numbers saying 'I don't know how, so teach me,' but don't think about anything.
'I want to create it with everyone.'
I also advocate for co-creation, but dumping everything on listeners is wrong.
The streamer creates, and the listeners help it grow.
It is always the listeners who choose.
That is precisely why you need to think for yourself.
Depending on an 'oil king' is easy.
But that doesn't make you a hero; it makes you a 'kept person'.
In the world of hosts, those who seriously want to succeed as hosts say:
'If you want to be a kept man, quit being a host.'
It is the same for streamers.
Who do you want to be?
A shining hero,
or someone who just caters to others' moods?
I want Orina-san to be a hero.
The desire to make a living through singing.
There is a family behind that.
That is why I also faced it seriously.
This world may look beautiful,
but there is exploitation behind the scenes.
That is why streamers should be sincere.
Because it is a job where you receive money directly from listeners.
If you train these three pillars, you will definitely get results.
But it is not easy.
I am still on the way myself.
However, this 'process of growth' also becomes content.
And the most important thing there is
humanity and trust.
With Orina-san,
I was able to build solid trust over these two weeks.
Now it is her turn to build trust with her listeners.
If she can do that, she will definitely be supported.
I will continue to support her.
And
I am calling for challengers for the 2nd '2-week challenge'!
Before trying to increase awareness,
why not improve your streamer skills?
If you are serious about wanting to change,
let's talk via DM first📩
I will also do my best in my own way so that there are more wonderful streamers and the live streaming industry becomes a healthy place where listeners can truly enjoy themselves‼️
Of course, I will also achieve my dreams as a streamer🔥🔥🔥
