Full transcript
- 0:00Hi, hello, and welcome. Welcome back to
- 0:01my channel. I am Naina, and this video
- 0:04is so special because, you know, when I
- 0:06was in school, in 11th grade and 12th
- 0:08grade, that was when COVID hit. Because
- 0:11of that, when I was in 11th grade, a
- 0:12lockdown was imposed. So, my entire
- 0:14academic system just fell apart. I mean
- 0:17, in 10th grade I was up here, and in
- 0:1911th I was down there. You have to look
- 0:21at it like that because I was the one
- 0:23who was facing a lot of issues back
- 0:24then. But that wasn't the case with my
- 0:26classmates. My classmates were doing
- 0:28really good. And in 11th, I had to take
- 0:31multiple re-exams to pass. So, when our
- 0:3412th grade results came out, I scored
- 0:35good marks. But my classmates, they
- 0:38scored really, very good marks. I mean,
- 0:41they scored 93%, 91%, 88%—everyone
- 0:44got marks like that. And I was the one
- 0:47who was feeling so inferior, and I was
- 0:49feeling so bad. Because my peers were
- 0:51being given such great treatment. Like,
- 0:54their pictures and photographs were
- 0:56being put up on hoardings. The school
- 0:57hoardings that are on the roads, they
- 0:59were appearing in newspapers. They were
- 1:01distributing sweets. But I was feeling
- 1:03that I could also be one of them. It
- 1:05just didn't happen. But if I look at my
- 1:08life today and look at those toppers '
- 1:09lives, there is a night and day
- 1:11difference. I am at a much better stage
- 1:14in my life. How did that even happen?
- 1:16Because I developed skills. I worked on
- 1:19myself. I learned so many skills in my
- 1:22life. And now I make money from them.
- 1:24And that is why I am doing really good
- 1:26in my life. So today, we are going to
- 1:28talk about skills. In the last video I
- 1:31made, where I talked about how to make
- 1:33money as a student, there were so many
- 1:35comments from people saying that they
- 1:37do not have any skills. But that is not
- 1:40an issue. I am here, and this video is
- 1:42specifically dedicated to skills. If
- 1:44you don't know anything, just think of
- 1:46yourself as starting from scratch, from
- 1:48zero. These are the seven skills that I
- 1:50am going to talk about. And in this, I
- 1:52am going to tell you where you can
- 1:54learn them and how you can monetize
- 1:55these skills. So consider watching this
- 1:58video till the end, and let's get right
- 2:00into this video. Okay. So, the first
- 2:09thing is, as you guys already know, how
- 2:11much of an important part of our daily
- 2:13lives AI has become. If we need to get
- 2:15a sentence written, we get it written
- 2:17by it. If we need to generate a picture
- 2:19, we get it done by it. If we have
- 2:21school work to do, be it essays,
- 2:23assignments, or tests. We take AI's
- 2:26help for everything. In fact, if we
- 2:28don't have anyone to talk to, we even
- 2:31talk to AI. So in such a situation, the
- 2:34instructions you provide to the AI
- 2:36matter a lot. If you write a wrong
- 2:39instruction or don't write the
- 2:41instruction correctly. Then it will not
- 2:43be able to give you your desired result
- 2:45. And this act of giving instructions
- 2:48is called prompt engineering or AI
- 2:50prompting. AI prompting has so much
- 2:53scope these days and this scope will
- 2:55only keep growing because so much work
- 2:57is being done in AI. Data centers are
- 2:59being built and AI has now become such
- 3:02a part of our lives that we simply
- 3:04cannot deny it. So it is obvious that
- 3:05there is a lot of scope. Now, how is
- 3:07there scope? Now, how will you work on
- 3:09this? Look, the first thing is to learn
- 3:11this skill. So, how can you learn this
- 3:13skill? There are many free sites that
- 3:16teach this skill. In fact, I would tell
- 3:18you that YouTube is the best open
- 3:20university kind of thing. Whatever you
- 3:23search here, you will get to learn
- 3:24everything. So you can learn from here
- 3:26as well. Otherwise, if you actually
- 3:28want to learn this professionally, and
- 3:31for free too, then you can learn it
- 3:33from OpenAI Academy, Google Cloud
- 3:35Skills Boost, or DeepLearning.AI. For
- 3:39example, in small businesses or even
- 3:41large businesses, what happens is that
- 3:42they need help with email drafting or,
- 3:44let's say, a coaching institute
- 3:46receives queries from thousands of
- 3:48students. So, organizing those queries
- 3:51and providing feedback on what queries
- 3:53the students are asking. Customizing
- 3:56the frequently asked questions for them
- 3:58—companies hire people for this. If
- 4:01you leave companies aside, for
- 4:03companies, LinkedIn, Fiverr, and Upwork
- 4:05are three such sites. Here you can find
- 4:09freelancing projects, and when you
- 4:11connect with business owners, they give
- 4:13you work. But you want everything to
- 4:16happen very quickly. So this process
- 4:17will take time. But let me give you a
- 4:19very basic example. For instance, on
- 4:22Instagram, there are many such pictures
- 4:24that are AI-generated, which many
- 4:26creators generate using AI. I saw a
- 4:28video of some girl on Instagram. I
- 4:31don't remember her name, but she used
- 4:34such great prompting to generate such
- 4:36an excellent video. Like, it was unreal
- 4:40. I mean, it looked as if a lot of work
- 4:42had actually gone into it. In reality,
- 4:45this video is real, and if you demand
- 4:47her prompting, then that girl will
- 4:49charge you money because she has
- 4:51learned that prompting. So, it's like
- 4:54that. So how can you package this into
- 4:56something small? Let's say you learn AI
- 4:58prompting for a month, 21 days,
- 5:00whatever you feel is right. Let's say
- 5:03you generate 15 prompts with which you
- 5:05can generate pictures or videos, like
- 5:08aesthetic pictures; and then you upload
- 5:10that content on Instagram. Whatever,
- 5:14and I would also like to tell you here
- 5:16that the world today isn't one where
- 5:18you have to go from door to door,
- 5:20everywhere, telling people that I do
- 5:22this work, so please give me work.
- 5:24Today is the era of social media. Okay?
- 5:26You can become famous overnight. Your
- 5:28work can be worth thousands or millions
- 5:31of dollars overnight. You just need to
- 5:34show up and you just need to put your
- 5:36work out there. Because people are
- 5:38already waiting. The things you can
- 5:40think of in your mind are what people
- 5:41want to obtain. That is what people
- 5:44want to hear and see. So it's like, use
- 5:47social media to promote your skills. To
- 5:51reach out to the right kind of people
- 5:54and to showcase your skills. And now
- 5:56the second skill is digital products.
- 5:59Guys, I have personally known so many
- 6:01people who have created digital
- 6:03products and they have made such a
- 6:05decent amount of money from that. Like
- 6:07there are many YouTubers too, many
- 6:09creators as well. What happens is that
- 6:11when they reach a very good stage. Like
- 6:14now they have an audience. So what do
- 6:15they do? They create some digital
- 6:17product and then sell it. How? Let's
- 6:20say I am a creator. So there are many
- 6:23things that I have learned in my
- 6:24journey. Now what do I do with it? I
- 6:26could create an e-book where I tell you
- 6:28everything, like these are the tips.
- 6:31These are the tricks. You do this at
- 6:33this time, you do that at that time. So
- 6:35what will happen is there is an
- 6:37audience that wants it, so I will sell
- 6:39that digital product, that e-book, to
- 6:41those people and I will get money from
- 6:43it. Even if you are not a creator or
- 6:46you don't have that much of an audience
- 6:48, you can still create and sell your
- 6:50own digital product. And again, you
- 6:52will have to use social media. Again,
- 6:54you will have to reach out to people.
- 6:57Because otherwise, how will anyone
- 6:59sitting at home ask you, "Hey, you made
- 7:01this thing?""Can I buy it from you?" No
- 7:03, you have to go and tell them yourself
- 7:05, "Hey, I have made this, would you
- 7:06like it?" And in this way, your digital
- 7:09products—I bet you guys. You can earn
- 7:11a very good amount from digital
- 7:13products. But the thing is, people do
- 7:15create digital products, but they don't
- 7:17know where to sell them or how to sell
- 7:19them. So because of this, many people
- 7:21are not able to monetize their products
- 7:23effectively. So that is why I use only
- 7:26a trusted platform, and I personally
- 7:29use Super Profile Bio, which is
- 7:31authenticated, trusted, and verified by
- 7:34Meta itself. So you don't have any
- 7:36trust issues here, and you can
- 7:37completely rely on this platform. In
- 7:39fact, this platform gives you a proper
- 7:42creator store. Meaning, you go there,
- 7:46create any digital product of yours,
- 7:48let's say you create an e-book in
- 7:51Google Docs, export it as a PDF, and
- 7:53then create your profile on this,
- 7:55upload it there, write a caption,
- 7:57configure your payment method, and you
- 8:00are ready to go. You can just make your
- 8:04first dollar, you can just make
- 8:05thousands by selling that product, and
- 8:07along with that, let me tell you this
- 8:09one thing. If you are so lazy and you
- 8:12don't want to do all that work, there
- 8:14is a new feature in it which is
- 8:16connected to AI. So if you use that
- 8:19feature and you tell it, "Create an
- 8:21e-book for me." It will create an
- 8:23e-book for you. You tell it, "Create a
- 8:25booking page for me." It will create a
- 8:28booking page for you. You tell it, "
- 8:29Make this thing go live at this time."
- 8:31It will schedule it for you. It will
- 8:33even take it live itself. There are
- 8:34many other things besides that. Like
- 8:35the auto-DM feature. You get a toolkit.
- 8:38Your followers increase. So, I will
- 8:40talk about all these things further.
- 8:42But if you guys are serious about
- 8:44making digital products and making
- 8:46money out of them and developing this
- 8:48skill of making digital products using
- 8:50the skills that you already have, or
- 8:52the wisdom or the knowledge that you
- 8:54already have, you can actually trust
- 8:56SuperProfile.bio, and its creator plan
- 8:58costs ₹ 99 per month. But if you guys
- 9:01use my code, which is NAINA992, then
- 9:04you can get this creator plan for just
- 9:07one rupee, only ₹ 1. So, of course,
- 9:10you guys can just try it out. Now, the
- 9:12next thing is videography and
- 9:14photography. Guys, you won't even
- 9:17realize how much crazy money there is
- 9:20in videography and photography. I am a
- 9:24model. I work with e-commerce. I work
- 9:26with makeup artists. And their
- 9:28photographers, their videographers,
- 9:31they charge so much money. But that
- 9:35doesn't mean that if you just do normal
- 9:37photography or if you only know basic
- 9:38photography, anyone will hire you. No,
- 9:41you actually learn really good
- 9:44photography. Learn really good
- 9:46videography. And it's not like you need
- 9:48a gimbal or a camera for that. No, even
- 9:50if you have an iPhone, you can make a
- 9:53decent amount of money by using the
- 9:55skill of photography and videography. I
- 9:58will give you an example. Just a few
- 10:00days ago, a cinematographer reached out
- 10:02to me and said that he wanted to
- 10:03collaborate with me and feature me in
- 10:05his video. And I was like, okay. But
- 10:08how does it work? Like, will you pay me
- 10:10money, or do I have to pay you money?
- 10:12So he said, no, you have to pay me
- 10:14money. And I asked, how much? And he
- 10:17said that I charge 8K per reel. My
- 10:19charges start from 8000. And he was so
- 10:22good at his job that, at one point, I
- 10:25was willing to pay him that much amount
- 10:27of money. So, it's like if you develop
- 10:30this skill, if you actually learn
- 10:32videography and photography, then you
- 10:35can get a decent amount of money from
- 10:37it. Provided that your work is
- 10:39excellent. You should know angles,
- 10:41positions, and you should know how
- 10:43beautiful you can make the character
- 10:45look. Also, there is another part to
- 10:47this, which is wedding photography and
- 10:49videography; do you know that for a
- 10:50single wedding, people charge anywhere
- 10:52from 80 thousand to 2.5 lakhs? If you
- 10:55dedicate some quality time to learning
- 10:56this, you can make a lot of money from
- 10:58it. You actually can, because I see it
- 11:01myself. I see photographers and
- 11:02cinematographers myself, the people we
- 11:05work with. And they actually make a
- 11:06decent amount of money. And now that
- 11:08brings me to the next skill, which is
- 11:11video editing. Guys, you don't even
- 11:14realize how much an editor charges to
- 11:17edit a video if their skills are truly
- 11:20excellent. And believe me, all the big
- 11:24creators or growing creators, do you
- 11:26really think they spend four or five
- 11:29hours editing their own videos? No,
- 11:32they have editors. So this means that
- 11:36the demand for editors is increasing
- 11:38with every passing day. Because as the
- 11:40number of creators grows, the demand
- 11:41for them will naturally increase too.
- 11:44So it's like this: whatever skills I am
- 11:46telling you about, or whatever skills
- 11:48you learn elsewhere, or want to learn,
- 11:50do that work with an upgrade because
- 11:52everyone else is doing it normally
- 11:54anyway. But what more excellent thing
- 11:57can I bring to it? What is so different
- 11:59about my work that people should hire
- 12:01me? And for that, you have to invest
- 12:03time. For that, you have to sit down
- 12:04and learn. If you give even 2 hours a
- 12:07day to a skill, you can become very
- 12:09good at it in 2 to 3 months. It’s the
- 12:12same with editing. It’s not like you
- 12:14just download an application, learn a
- 12:16little bit, and say, "Oh, I am really
- 12:18good at editing." No, if you actually
- 12:21learn the proper applications on a PC,
- 12:24like Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, etc.,
- 12:27and then reach out to people, I bet you
- 12:29. If your skills are good, your work is
- 12:33professional, and you know editing
- 12:35really well, then guys, you will get
- 12:38work. You will get work. And I will
- 12:40give you one piece of advice on this.
- 12:41Look, when you reach out to someone,
- 12:43like I mentioned in my previous video,
- 12:44you should reach out. But you guys
- 12:46reach out, yet you don't even know how
- 12:48to reach out properly. Let's say you're
- 12:50sending me something about thumbnail
- 12:51designing, claiming that you are a
- 12:53thumbnail designer. We do thumbnail
- 12:54designing. We want to design thumbnails
- 12:57for you. Do you think creators are
- 13:00fools? Do you think the person on the
- 13:02other end, who sees your email, won't
- 13:04know that you generated it with ChatGPT
- 13:06? Won't they know that you created it
- 13:08using Gemini? Where is your hard work
- 13:09in that? Where is your effort in that?
- 13:11So, no one is going to pay you for free
- 13:13. Now, let's say you are sending your
- 13:16portfolio and email to someone for
- 13:17video editing work. Your chances will
- 13:20increase by 40%. If you edit and send
- 13:22that specific creator's own video back
- 13:24to them. Because by looking at others'
- 13:26work, one doesn't really understand how
- 13:28good someone actually is. But if you
- 13:30edit and send my own video to me, and I
- 13:32see it and think, "Oh wow, this could
- 13:34have been edited this way too." Then
- 13:37you can get the chance. So that brings
- 13:39me to the next skill, which is content
- 13:40creation. What I am doing right now is
- 13:42my skill. I earn money from this. Now,
- 13:45in content creation, it might be that
- 13:47you aren't able to do it very well, or
- 13:49you aren't confident on camera, and you
- 13:51feel like you want money quickly.
- 13:53Meaning, you don't want to go through
- 13:55the whole process of waiting for
- 13:56followers to grow, building an audience
- 13:58, and then eventually getting paid. If
- 14:01you want to eliminate this entire
- 14:03process, I would highly suggest you
- 14:05learn how to do UGC. And UGC is User
- 14:08Generated Content. You should learn how
- 14:10to create UGC content. And guys, you
- 14:13can earn a lot of money through UGC.
- 14:15This video is in the context of my
- 14:17recent video. So you can watch that one
- 14:19too. I have talked about this topic in
- 14:21detail in that video as well. Learn the
- 14:22basics of how to showcase a product.
- 14:25How you need to generate links.
- 14:27Recently, I received a comment saying
- 14:29they have joined the Meesho Creator
- 14:31Program. And they earn money from that.
- 14:34In this, it is not even necessary to
- 14:36wait for followers. Like for example,
- 14:40you created a new account, showed a
- 14:42very beautiful suit on it, and
- 14:45connected it to an auto-DM platform
- 14:47like Superprofile, so the link goes
- 14:50directly to them, and if someone buys
- 14:52it through that link, you will get a
- 14:55commission. So, it's that easy. And
- 14:58trust the process, just trust the
- 15:00process. It might take 15 days, 1 month
- 15:02, or 1.5 months, or you can try that
- 15:05out. Now the next skill is SEO. What is
- 15:08that? It is Search Engine Optimization.
- 15:12You know, brands, big businesses, or
- 15:14platforms, they all have an entire SEO
- 15:17team. Meaning, they have a whole team
- 15:20for Search Engine Optimization. Now,
- 15:23this is also a skill. How you can learn
- 15:25this—I don't know if I've told you or
- 15:27not. But there is an app called
- 15:28Coursera. Like, sitting here in India,
- 15:31you can take a course from Oxford
- 15:33University. In fact, you can even get a
- 15:35certificate for it, and for the
- 15:37certificate, you have to pay money.
- 15:39I'll tell you that beforehand. Learn
- 15:40the skill for free, whatever it is, and
- 15:42if you want the certification, pay the
- 15:44money and get your certification. And
- 15:46that is such a nice application. I have
- 15:48also done some courses from there
- 15:49related to my subjects. So, you can do
- 15:51it too. And if you guys think that it
- 15:53is sponsored or something, it is not
- 15:55sponsored at all. Whatever I am telling
- 15:57you, it is all coming from my personal
- 15:59experience. So you can trust me on that
- 16:02. You need to know how to do Search
- 16:03Engine Optimization very well. For
- 16:05instance, there are many internships,
- 16:07and if you look at them, they ask for
- 16:09it. It lists the skill as SEO. Now,
- 16:12when I saw that for the first time, I
- 16:14didn't even know what SEO was. So, SEO
- 16:16is a very good skill and it can also
- 16:19get you jobs. It can give you a pretty
- 16:22decent job, and you just need to apply
- 16:24to good companies with your
- 16:25certification. You can be a part of the
- 16:29SEO team then. And from this comes the
- 16:31next point, which is website designing.
- 16:34And nowadays, you know that every other
- 16:36day some new brand is launching.
- 16:37Especially for clothing, we see some
- 16:40brand or another launching every day.
- 16:42Now, these brands that launch, or
- 16:44anything that is launching, they
- 16:46definitely need a website. If you want
- 16:49to curate that thing properly, you
- 16:51would want to have a website for it. So
- 16:54, there are many people who need
- 16:56website designers, and you can learn
- 16:58website designing—I don't know, you
- 17:01can learn it without coding and with
- 17:04coding as well. You will have to learn
- 17:06that thing. The website SEO I mentioned
- 17:08earlier. For instance, suppose you are
- 17:11building a website for someone and you
- 17:13also set up the SEO for them, people
- 17:15will pay you extra for that. And SEO—
- 17:19I forgot to tell you this about SEO—
- 17:21basically, let's say when you search
- 17:23for something on Google, for example,
- 17:25if I search for a cafe, sponsored cafes
- 17:27will appear. But besides those, how do
- 17:30the ones that aren't sponsored show up?
- 17:33That is what SEO is used for. So, many
- 17:35brands do this so that their products
- 17:37appear at the top. Many companies do
- 17:39this so that the services they provide
- 17:42are visible to others. But I would
- 17:44personally advise you one thing if your
- 17:46field is something else. Let's say you
- 17:49are a humanities student and you start
- 17:51learning website design, it might clash
- 17:53somewhere down the line. You don't want
- 17:57a situation where your boat is going
- 17:58one way and the water current is going
- 18:00another, and you get stuck in the
- 18:02middle. Okay? If you don't come from a
- 18:04technical background, you can skip all
- 18:06these things. Oh, I just remembered
- 18:08another skill. Someone commented a day
- 18:10or two ago that they learned Tally and
- 18:13now they work in a bank. As a student,
- 18:15they are now working in a bank and
- 18:17making their own money, like 8k to 10k,
- 18:19I don't know. Now she is making her own
- 18:22money, so you can also learn these
- 18:23skills; Tally, accounting, typing,
- 18:25these are also skills. Okay, but there
- 18:28are many such skills that you already
- 18:30know, but you don't even realize that
- 18:32you can monetize them. Let's say you
- 18:35are a girl and you are very good at
- 18:37nail art, then you can showcase your
- 18:39art and sell it. Meaning you can design
- 18:42your nails and sell them. Again, I saw
- 18:46a reel on Instagram where a girl does
- 18:49nails, her designs are so beautiful,
- 18:52and she sells those nails for a good
- 18:55amount, like 2000 to 2500. So if you
- 18:58already know a skill, monetize it. Just
- 19:01monetize it. Whatever you know, don't
- 19:04do it for anyone for free. Charge money
- 19:08for it. The last skill I will tell you
- 19:10about now is one you absolutely must
- 19:12work on. Otherwise, all these skills
- 19:15are of no use. Which is your
- 19:17communication skill. Look, if you are
- 19:20very introverted, it's not a bad thing
- 19:23to be an introvert. That could be your
- 19:25natural nature. But you know what, you
- 19:27have to work on your communication
- 19:28skills. You have to learn how to talk
- 19:31to people. You have to learn how to
- 19:34negotiate. You have to make your
- 19:37communication so strong and fluent that
- 19:39when someone talks to you, they realize
- 19:41, "Yeah, this person knows their stuff.
- 19:44" So, what can be included in
- 19:46communication? Your body language, how
- 19:48you maintain your body. The hand
- 19:50gestures you use while speaking. Your
- 19:53vocabulary should be good. Okay?
- 19:56Besides that, how are you speaking?
- 19:58Whether you are speaking fluently or
- 20:00not also matters. And let's say you are
- 20:03talking to a client, how do you talk to
- 20:05them? How do you negotiate prices with
- 20:07them? How will you talk to them? Like
- 20:10when we go to a clothing store, the
- 20:13shopkeeper, suppose a suit is for 1500
- 20:16rupees. They will tell us 2500 right
- 20:18away. So that is their negotiation.
- 20:20That is their communication, and they
- 20:21won't even let us feel that the suit is
- 20:23actually for 1500. Although we know it,
- 20:25still, that is their communication
- 20:27skill. And they won't let you leave the
- 20:29shop empty-handed. I will also make a
- 20:31video specifically on how to improve
- 20:33your communication skills. Because I
- 20:35want to tell you guys a lot. I was not
- 20:38confident before. I was not very fluent
- 20:41in communication before. But how I did
- 20:44it. I will tell you guys. And for that,
- 20:47hit that subscribe button. You may have
- 20:49learned every skill in the world, but
- 20:51if you don't know how to speak. You
- 20:52don't know how to crack a deal with
- 20:54someone. You don't know how to
- 20:56negotiate. Then what is the point of
- 20:58those skills? What is the point of
- 20:59spending 3 months learning a skill?
- 21:01What is the point? It makes no sense.
- 21:03So work on your communication skills.
- 21:05And there are so many videos on YouTube
- 21:08that you can watch and learn from. But
- 21:11again, you can watch any video. But
- 21:14unless you put it into practice, unless
- 21:16you actually use that thing on a daily
- 21:18basis, there is no use for it. I have
- 21:21told you these are the skills. You
- 21:23should learn these skills. It won't
- 21:24take you long to earn money. You can
- 21:26monetize them. But if you aren't
- 21:28putting them into practice. If you
- 21:30aren't actually learning them. You just
- 21:32keep watching video after video. But
- 21:33you don't even realize that you
- 21:35actually have to do the work you hear
- 21:36about. Anyways. So, these are the
- 21:39skills that you guys can actually put
- 21:40your effort, time, and energy into. And
- 21:43I wouldn't say that you should learn
- 21:45all these skills. Just pick any one of
- 21:48these skills for the next 30 days and
- 21:49put your heart and soul into it. I mean
- 21:52, make it so that you are determined to
- 21:54learn this skill. Reach out to the
- 21:56right people. I bet you guys. If you
- 21:59have worked well on your skill. You
- 22:01have dedicated your full time. You have
- 22:03mastered that skill perfectly. You will
- 22:07actually make money. Anyways, so this
- 22:11was all about this video. I will see
- 22:13you guys in the next one. Take care.
- 22:14Bye-bye and I will see you.
