Learning from mistakes: Frank Krüger on improving

I am still excited about my interview with YouTube creator Frank Krüger 💯 Here are some favourite statements, translated:
- I do it for the people who enjoy it, not the haters.
- Whatever you do, you cannot please everyone.
- You cannot ignite a flame in someone else if it does not burn within you.
- People see subscriber counts and views, not all the work behind them.
- They accept it only once you can demonstrate success.
- Makers gonna make.
- Without mistakes, nobody improves.
Frank left his secure teaching position to run one of Germany’s largest DIY YouTube channels full-time. The beginning was full of obstacles. In the interview, he explains how he overcame fear and followed his passion.
