So, we are here with the best advice for budding creators from the ones who have already made it here.

Here's what they said:

Be Practical: Ankush Bahuguna 

Always prepare for the worst. Be practical. It's a tough job to sustain. Have a plan B - make sure you're financially independent. And if it doesn't work out the way you like, don't take it personally. You could be doing everything right, but still no recognition.

"Keep Working Hard," says Shirin Sewani 

I think it is not about acting or influencing. I think even anybody who is entering any new field, will say the same thing that I have always done and I believe in it, everything that I have, that you just need to work hard. You are not supposed to give up, or beat anything and, of course, you will have your bad days. So, I think the only mantra that I have is that keep working hard and keep believing in yourself. You will have your bad days, but I think these bad days will make you a stronger person and will make you a better person. So just keep believing in yourself and don't give up.

RJ Sukriti: Don't Look on it Like a Job

I think I'm still in a position where I seek advice from other people, but I'll tell you from my experience I think a couple of things that I have realized one of course as I mentioned earlier also that you know make content for the pure joy of it. If you enjoy making your content it will eventually make others also enjoy it. One should enjoy it, not just chase numbers or views. I feel they all are just byproducts of content creation they will come. The main focus is to enjoy.  

I also feel that all these creative jobs or creative professions are different from regular professions because there's fun involved in it. Why take away the fun, don't look at it like a job. This is the major reason why we are not doing 9-5 jobs and we're doing this because we don't want to just be stuck in work, so enjoy creating content and everything will follow.
