Apparently, I grossly overestimated the potential income for dot-mandala painting artist with a YouTube channel Lydia May, shared on 7/1/21.

Lydia shared the estimated $1,613,680 over a 3 year period was about 3 decimals off.

Oh wow! Thank you very much for the mention! It made me smile. 😊💕 While your post is true and I would absolutely recommend both YouTube and starting your own business to anyone who wants to work HARD, there is a huge misconception about how much YouTubers actually make. 

Move the decimal over 3 times to the left for an accurate rate of what getting those numbers actually generates for the creator. Regardless, it's SO MUCH FUN! I'm living my dream and I'd not trade it for the world. I feel you can do anything you put your mind to and work consistently towards. Just keep pushing.

All the best ✌🥰🎨💗 -Lydia

So… that would make it closer to $1,614..? But remember, she would’ve earned little to nothing the first year and it would’ve increased in year two and again in year three.

But to earn from doing work you love is a start that compounds over time. Just don’t quit your day job. Yet.

Efforts compound.

The day is the way.
