I completely agree Joris. I travelled for four years and only figured out I wanted to be a photographer when I was 27 and at the end of that journey. Who knows what they want to do when they’re 18!

[martincoolee]

Good message. The is a huge difference between being comfortable and being happy. People mostly realize this thing after 30. Definitely this is not too late. At least you have a money for nice gear 🤘

When I was 21 i said that i love photography. Went to a school, but I left in the second year.
9 years later i had a flash on my head and a voice told me "why you didn't chased what you always liked???"
Now, I'm 32, already worked two seasons as a second shooter in weddings and this winter I'm going to have my own website to try and have clients for 2023 wedding season.
Wish me luck guys!! Really need this!

Great motivation for this 2021, I'm 49 and I feel like in my 35, also opened this past year my YouTube channel after having 2 Degrees I decided to move forward and make my dreams come true 👍, keep rolling man and keep creating!!

[slowmo]

After Highschool I changed my major once, took a year off from college, and got a degree in Chinese language. I realized I didn't want to live in China, I wanted to move to the country instead.
Now I know I want to create something, I'm stuck being indecisive about what. Reminders like this are really nice; it's never too late, but waiting for the "right time" won't get you any closer.
Thank you!

Great timing, Joris! I just dropped out of university 2 weeks ago to try making a career out of filmmaking and photography! Last week I started my YouTube channel and I haven't been that happy in the past year of study. And let it grow man! Looking forward to the next video!

[paulcain]

Well Joris I turn 50 this year and have just bought my first DSLR in the hope of creating short films. Many more grey hairs in my beard than you 😂😂. It’s never too late to create. (Hey, I’m a poet and didn’t know it!) You are now my go to guy for tips and inspiration. Thank Man 😂😂👍🏻👍🏻🇬🇧

[IanPerry]

Nice one Joris! I am 60+ (with a LOT of white hairs) and haven't decided what to do with the rest of my life. Keep making your excellent videos. Stay safe! Ian :-)

[DariuszTech]

Definitely keep that beard. I might be wrong but I think you are the same age as me 37. You are absolutely right never too late to start your YouTube channel.I always been passionate about mobile phones I was buying and selling them for the last 10 years. Never was able to find a right phone for me.only just started my YouTube channel last year and I wish I started earlier.you are a huge inspiration for people such as myself.because of your videos I and tips and tricks I can bring my smartphone videography to the next level.
Of you would look at my YouTube channel and give me some feedback that would mean a world to me.

[abuhamed]

Thank you for this beautiful advice man! and definitely grow for the beard hahah! peace man

[MPERIALENTERTAINMENTD]

The beard looks good. Keep it going strong.

Thank you for the message. I am turning 40 this year. For Christmas I was gifted a Canon M50. I have taken lots of video and stills with it. I hope yo use it for Youtube soon.
I enrolled in film school after high school. I did well for a couple semesters, but then I left to get married and have a family. Now, I am wondering if I can get back into it. It's been 20 years since I was a student and back then I used a Sony DCR TRV 20.

[MillaExplores]

Well said! And I agree, it's never too late to change something in your life, try something new or learn a new skill. Life would be so boring if we would do the same thing for the rest of our lives after we turn 18 haha. 😄

[remshawmusiek]

Thanks for the support.

Let it Grow.. Elsa 🎼🎼🤣

[roamlens]

oh man, I'm in this exact situation, hmm, unfortunately the video here was two years ago, oh well, I'll keep watching your great videos here

[JessandJenn]

51 here... photographer for 35 years, but trying to get out on the other side of the lens and started a channel with my wife!

[ElusiveFrame]

It's a misconception to think you have to do one thing with your life. Life is all about doing different things and we should all look at it like different phases instead of a single clear path.
Few people really know what to do with their lives and if you're one, then congratulations! But if not, that's okay. Explore. Find what you like. Ignore what you dislike. Try. Fail. Live.
And if you're starting out on YouTube remember that it's a marathon. Be in it for the long run. Keep uploading and don't give up. You'll find your crowd and your niche. Just live.
Good luck everybody!
And keep the beard, it makes you look badass. Let's drink some beer and watch simpsons when Covid is over :)

[JuanCarlosRivasPerrettaOboe]

What the fuck was that sound on 3:33 ?? It sound like sounding in my room

[devam]

I think 33-36 that was the time where my beard got whiter 🤣

[shaiy]

Ik denk dat je 36 bent ( 37, als je in januari al jarig bent geweest :) ) Groetjes uit Holland!

[elgringoperdido.]

love your beard, don't trim it :)
