I have been getting some messages from friends and people around me who would love to learn new things and creative ideas in technological concepts about IT. Sometimes I share my little ideas with them, not my availability is often limited because of my lifestyle, but there is one powerful social media platform that so many people underrate, and that is YouTube.

YouTube has to be the most influential app that can change a person’s life if used in the right way with full focus. Some people spend hours on YouTube watching videos on movies and other fun things, but I feel YouTube is far more than just watching regular fun videos or social videos. YouTube has helped me in my learning journey, I remember trying to Use Python I learned different codes and command responses from YouTube, which helped me. My first trial of learning to use different software on the computer or operating a system Bios is on YouTube, I truly appreciate people who take their time to create these helpful videos, I know I am not the only one benefiting from it but also others too.
My first IT skill, Graphics design started from watching YouTube. We believe youtube consumes our Monthly Data Subscription faster but it was worth it to me, then there where people around me that does graphic design training but it wasn't free to learn, people will have to pay a certain amount of money to learn this skills, it took me a lot of focus and dedication to learn this skill. I then advanced myself to using of photoshop to edit images, though this was complex because it requires be to understand colors for brightness and saturation, which I learned to be good with it, though not professionally, but to be able to carry out minor tasks with it.

I remember even being motivated In my learning on youtube through all this motvatonal short videos. Then I can to realization of a lot of real life from popular mentors that have kept me highly motivated till date. I love motivational videos, it keeps me highly motivated in other to do better than before.
There is one major thing I appreciate youtubers for is that, youtube is like an answer to every tech program, a lot of people have really made videos that have been very helpful to learning and diffrient engagements. Youtube is my solution to every IT problem, if I have problem with a tool I will ask youtube, and when I want a deeper explanaqboit it I will ask Ai, bu I prefer watching people personal experience videos to learning than asking AI although AI give accurate answers but youtube shows the video of what we want to perform.
My personal advice to anyone that will love to have a IT skill but feels he/she can meetup or you might feel you are too busy to engage in it, I will advice you to master using youtube as a regular tool for daily learning, it is not necessary you wait to learn from it, you can be learning from anywhere, and depending on the skills we want to learn, we can still first learn with our phone to have basic idea about it then continue with our computer to put into practice or we can watch both on the computer.

YouTube is my go-to platform whenever I'm stuck. Most times, I prefer to search on YouTube first before asking people nearby.
Exactly, thats why people should learn to use this app for better reason than just watching movies
