I may regret this one...

If you had the cure to cancer, wouldn't you do everything in your power to share it with the world?!
So why is it that we don't put forth the same effort if we have an online course we spent months creating, but not sharing as much as we "should"?
I think it's fear.
- We fear becoming annoying to our email list.
- We fear looking unprofessional on camera.
- We fear public speaking.
- We fear that there's no one out there to collaborate with, so we don't even try researching who'd be interested in a collaboration.
Unless it's just me. Yep, I'm a victim of it as well.
I have been wanting to start a YouTube channels for at least a year, but would see others in my space on their channels, compare my speaking and training skills to theirs, and think "there's no way anyone is going to be interested in watching a ten-minute video of me talking" or "I don't have the skills to edit my videos like they do."
So, I didn't start. I just continued thinking about it.
...until my accountability partner started doing short 1-minute videos. She said she was nervous the whole time filming, but I sure couldn't see that when I watched. I thought, "she's being ridiculous, she's great on camera." And then I reflected back on my own fears. The difference between the two of us is that she took action and just did it, kicking fear to the curb.
šI finally did the same. Launched the YouTube channel.
Of course they're cringe. I'm a new channel. Aren't they supposed to be that way?
I'm reaching out hoping you'll be my accountability partner too. If you subscribe and keep watching, I'll keep posting.
And meanwhile...what fearful activity are you going to take step one on this week? Don't leave me hanging. Brand new YouTube channel with videos released every Friday afternoon.
