Step 7: IMPORTANT! Connecting to Twitch

The final step is something everyone who wants to use the bot in discord must do. If the bot is just gonna be used for timers and announcement you can skip this step. This is to make sure the bot knows your Twitch account and can apply cooldowns and costs for the commands in case there is any.
