I would suggest myself that don't rush to publish the course. Take your time. Make it as better as you can. Take time to make it more and more student friendly. Think from their perspective. Once you are satisfied then only publish it.

I would say "Hey bro, don't worry about the future, worry about the present. Just take your time, create more content and learn more today. So you can improve yourself and share more valuable experiences tomorrow."

Be present, enjoy every moment, be patient with you and the world, look for stillness in everything.

If I could go back in time, I would give advice to myself that rather than completing the video lecture, do some practical or real time implementation of whatever I have learnt from the instructor.
Our main goal always should be to implement on real world, whatever we are learning.
That's What I give to my students whenever I create new course on udemy.
Thanks,

Thanks for A2A @Bella
Although my students love my teaching style and give me 5 star ratings but along with conventional education, I should have advised myself to learn the Teaching skills and how to create best courses. Doing a degree in Teaching and Social Psychology would have been a great help. I would also have suggested myself to learn more skills online instead of wasting time looking for the best school or company in outside world.

I would definitely advice myself to launch as soon as possible with your first course
that's when you start gathering feedback and becoming better every day. Don't waste your time hesitating and making assumptions 3 -
make a udemy course, now!

Quality above all. If the quality is high, success will come. Also be laser focused on what students need to know and not just what you want to talk about, because it may not matter to a lot of people. Find out exactly who your target audience is and cover their needs.

I would like to suggest myself that take your enough time in making or create the content to make it best that helps the students most and create the content more knowledgeable and more attractive. Because attractive videos are liked by everyone.
Thanks

Don't forget to make good use of every time.

I would say that " Make the course perfect as the students want and put the great content"

I would tell myself that I don't need anyone's permission to pursue my dreams. I would tell my past self to stop waiting... it's similar to Dorothy in The Wizard of Oz. She always had the power to return home. I would say, "Hey Past Self you already have the power to do what you want, you just need to realize it. Do it NOW!"
4 -
I would tell myself that create useful course trend course for the students which give grow and up skills students for next level for their career in life and future
3 -
I would suggest spending time learning how to edit my videos, and not trying to get each video done in one take. It would have saved some time not having to start all over again if I make a mistake five minutes in!

Don't worry about future just keep learning and growing and make the best possible courses and develop new and innovative products and books so that community can learn inspire and grow .
success isn't a wish remember its a choice .

just wanna say, enjoy what you wanna teach. don't worry about results, everyone fails and you gonna fail too, don't even think of result now. you gonna more when you teach. so just start teaching stop thinking about what gonna be benifit.

I would tell my younger self to live without fear of failure.
4 -
I would tell my past self, “don’t be afraid, teach, learn and live”. Life is short and you have to live it at his fullest!!!

Just get started.... get the first course out so you learn the skills and start to get feedback from students. I consider my first course a proof of concept and asked friends and family for feedback as well. So many great ideas that I can't wait to incorporate into my next course.

楽しんで作ろう！そして、より品質の高いものを作ろう！

The one advise I would give myself is to listen to your inner voice, give your best and pray. Everything else is planned by God. So stop worrying and share your knowledge on Udemy and spread happiness and wisdom one day at a time.

Content quality is the key -- thinking critically about the comprehension, retention, and practicality of the courses before publishing them!

I sometimes ask myself "why didnt you publish courses on udemy before". I had 10 years of experience then I published my first course but before that, I was taking courses on udemy for 5 years. So if I could do that, I could go back in time and say myself "publish your course, publish your course, be the first"
sth like that 3
