Where to put config file on a Mac (newbie)

Hi, I'm new to flexget and new to coding in general.

I created a config.yml file and put it in /Users/myusername, and also tried putting it in /Users/flexget/myusername but I still can not run the task because I get the terminal message

2017-10-02 17:01 CRITICAL manager                       Failed to find configuration file config.yml
2017-10-02 17:01 INFO     manager                       Tried to read from: /Users/myusername, /Users/myusername/.flexget, /Users/myusername/.config/flexget
Could not instantiate manager: No configuration file found.

I thought maybe the folder needs to be hidden, (thus the dot "."), so I ran a terminal command to do that and ran the file again, but I get the same terminal message as above.

So, how do I make this work? Thanks in advance for the help.
