So, step number one to beginning to create content when you can't find it in you to even begin to think about sitting in front of the camera would be to try to create a video. So, I'm gonna write that down, step one is, TRY. Try, okay, I think that's uh, I think you can read that. So, Step number one is try. When I tried to create my first video, it was horrible. I was scared, I was worried about what everyone would think of me. People who know me, people who don't know me, people who might see me in the past who are like who the fuck does she think she is making this video and what is she talking about ,does she think she's an expert? And all those thoughts came up. So step number one is try to create a video, and see what comes up for you. So those are a lot of things that came up for me. Shame, fear, even some guilt that like I'm even bothering to do this, yaknow like I said people will be like oh she thinks she's an expert. So just like some guilt, for, I don't even know what. So step number one is try. Try creating a video.
Step number two is, can you guess it? Try again! Try again! Okay? And number three? That's backwards. LAUGHING. Number three, I'm not fucking with you, I'm serious. Number three is try again, okay? Try again. No, Alright, alright, here's where it gets into like the nitty gritty of the video. This is the steps to creating content and live content when you're just scared of creating it. This is the steps. So, um, alright.
It was a journey for me, I've been trying to create video content since, well I started this journey in 2015, well I've actually been on this journey my entire fucking life, thank you very much. But, 2015, I pursued my certification for NLP coaching, that's Neuro Linguistic Programming, just to give myself some credibility and background because I was going to be trying to reach people to help them do what I did which was transform my life from a shit show to something that I'm proud of. So, um, alright. It was, 2016, 2017, I
Find support and accountability. What is accountability? Accountability is someone out there who knows what you're trying to do, who will check you on it if you don't do it, who will check you on it if you do do it. Because you want someone who will be able to give you feedback. So the support and accountability was huge for me. I'm an introvert and yaknow it's hard for me to express myself. Expressing myself is part of what I teach other people or intend to teach other people because that was part of my journey. Finding my voice and my personality and beginning to speak up for myself. So, finding support and finding other people who were like me who were on this journey was integral to everything that I'm doing today.
Another step is to practice your speaking skills and push the edges of your comfort zone in your everyday life. I'm gonna put that on there. Practice speaking and push your edges. So what does it mean to push your edges of your comfort zone? If you're going to the grocery store and you usually have a silent transaction between you and the cashier, one of the easiest ways to push your edges is to break the silence. Say hello, how are you, how's it going, are you stuck here much longer? Simple small talk. Make a funny joke about your broccoli. And it doesn't sound like a major thing to do that, but for someone who is scared of getting in front of the camera you would be surprised how much that begins to transform your inner landscape to be able to become capable of making that your outer picture of who you are. So when you work on the inside it translates to the outside. So practice speaking, push your edges. You like my chicken scratch? I did a lot of that.
I'm an introvert like i said. When I used to have a day job, well, I still do but it's my business now. When I used to work in an office it was excruciating for me to interact with my co-workers because I'm such an introvert and I had such trouble expressing myself. My cubicle mate would never shut the fuck up and I say that with love. We ended up being really good friends and I grew so much from that interaction every single day like she just never shut up she would never stop asking me questions or telling me about her life and I had to step up and make conversation with her. I didn't have to but
