Given how the past few months have been quite an incredible time for me and my once dead creative endeavors on YouTube, I thought it would be good to start off 2025 with an actual plan of some kind for how to move forward and continue to expand what I’ve already been able to build, and leverage that against my other hobbies and interest as they all blend together into, most centrally, the amalgamation that is the essence of this very web site.
In other words, I need to plan for a plan — come up with a general idea on what I may want to do when, and how, and then try to cement that into reality at an appropriate time. This will, primarily, involve me taking the time to write again, in conjunction with my YouTube efforts and various smaller side projects.
It’s not that I don’t have time, but I sometimes don’t have the energy or the drive and while I don’t want to force myself to do anything, I also don’t want to slack too much. This entry, for example, is slightly forced but I’m also putting my current thoughts down into an article so I can reflect back to this when necessary. The fact it is shared with others is just a nice bonus, I guess?
As It stands my plans are as follows: continue the current style of YouTube content, while also creating more diverse media. Compliment that with at least somewhat regular written entries here on Xadara proper, including continuing AVGN episode reviews, classic game reviews, and more. Lastly, continue to promote services like Final Zone and Secret Bonus Point to leverage the desire of some people to be part of a niche community or two.
Broad? Sure, but a realistic overview of my goals as far as my online creative output is. Not every article needs to be something major, nor necessarily does every video, but the latter naturally take more to do, so contrasting such with written content, with that sometimes acting as a base for future video work, should work out well.
I just need to form another habit; this one being the occasional article, like I used to, more often than not.
