Under A Year Left Today? Hopefully.

Tonight on Jake's Showcase http://youtube.com/JakesShowcase my video "Jake Johnston - "A Little To Cute For Me" https://youtu.be/O8sLmhsUtL4 is at 88 views 8 Likes 11 Dislikes with two hours left in the first day. A first where the dislikes outnumber the likes on the first day that I can remember. Oh well. If you've familiarized yourself with my mental framework you'll know while it disappoints me it certainly does not discourage me.
Again tonight I write against my best judgement because the channel is doing great today but the news just has to be said. According to socialblade's calculation I will surpass 1 million views across the channel May 28, 2016 or in 360 days, within a year and this is the first time the view count prediction has been within a year.
Wow that's like 52 videos left could be less, could be more but that's today's estimate. You see social blade calculates the average daily views for the past 30 days and then projects them forward to come up with their number. So on Monday for example when I only had 523 adsense views where I had been 600 or higher each day for two weeks the average daily view count went up to average 915 because a number a month ago fell off the calculation list and pushed the average higher. Some days socailblade cannot get the daily views from the YouTube API and so the number added is 0 bringing down the average for that day and so a 0 reading must have fallen off creating a higher 30 day average.
Ok that's all math stuff but the main point is that regardless the time in which years out, to a year and some months out to now under a year. It's huge. For me it's great. I'm achieving my goal and it is clearly in sight time wise. Now today I have 671,265 so I'm still 328,735 views away but I getting there, I'm getting there.
And then it will be over and I'll be off to new ventures.
Now this could be significantly shortened or raised if a video clearly "Pops" with a like or a share by someone significant or it could be really elongated if my channel loses all interest and collapses but 360 days tonight is the estimate.
It brings up a new problem. You see as I prepare to walk into infamy there are some videos that I feel I must get out before I cross a million. Just videos that I already have and some which I've just been dying to make. If all of a sudden I'm running out of YouTube time I want these video out and produced to do justice to the Jake's Showcase way. And oh they are dozies, some of them anyway. Others just good solid things.
Ah what a problem, what do I have to get out, what must be done before this is over?
God I wish I had more time. Can you even believe I'm saying this? Yes, I just know that while that million is predicted 360 days from now there is a very strong chance I may not even get that time.
Just think about the creative mind and how I think. I am going to be done on my self proclaimed mission and I have a boatload of creative thought left, like a real boatload.
The tortured creative.
Where are you my darling? Let's make magic. Let's make "Videos That Sparkle" together.
Let's Finish Jake's Showcase off the way the story is meant to end....With Love.
Have a Wonderful Day or Night Fans,
