To keep it short and simple this is a rant... 100% ....However I do include a positive and motivating message for those who struggle with vlogging, encounter issues, or those who haven't even started yet.
The rant is life and vlogs are supposed to be about your interpretation of life. No one wants to see people winning all the time if they dont show how they grind to work through moments that feel like deficits.
Your admission to reaching your creative plateau gives us a way to connect with you and also allows you to be congruent which is waaaay better then pretending or hiding behind a smile just for the camera. Good sht 💪🏾@paolajane.
Pretty easy for all those sitting on the couch not hitting upload to say how easy it is, hahaha. Yes it is hard, and expensive, and down right frustrating! And then you have that one video that comes together and you are so proud. You think, "Hell Yeah!" because it is so freaking good. It makes it all worth the effort. Keep your chin up because you've got that hustle and that hustle pays off.
Sometimes we have video fails! I definitely appreciate your honesty! You're doing more than many people are doing! We'll all have failures.
I won't even claim my videos are that great but it's better than what many people even try to do. Heck, many people won't try. But many of those people who won't try will often times trash those who do. That's a different subject entirely.
Keep going. Mamma didn't tell me there'd be days like this because vlogging didn't exist yet, but I can tell you sometimes audio or video doesn't come out the way you'd hope.
And yes, vlogging or doing anything with content creation isn't easy. Yet it is rewarding if you do it well and learn from mistakes.
Thank you so much for your support! And you’re so right. A lot of people wouldn’t even get past the fear of being on camera so would never try to overcome their fears.
I know failures are necessary for growth! Thanks so much for this.
Walking outside every morning is the ABSOLUTE best thing you can do for your mind. When your in motion, your brain works better. The frustration you felt is part of the process. We win some and we lose some.
Our attitude will determine our success in the end.
Like my dad always says, "Eagles are not concerned about the thoughts of chickens".
Laughing is the best medicine. Way to be real, Paola!
loll I can relate.. a few years ago I made some YouTube videos (more for fun than anything) and was amazed how difficult and tedious it is. Like you have this romantic vision of talking to the camera, wind blowing through your hair everyone loves what you're saying, but really it's a lottttt of tedious steps.
like anything, the better you get at something, it becomes a game of smaller edges where it takes longer and more effort for tinier improvements
I loved your real talk, so way to turn the negative into something good!!
Haha welcome to the club @paolajane. I make animation and I do a lot of video editing too, so I can definitely sympathize with you when it comes to technical difficulties, but it feels so good when you get over those obstacles. On top of that, you gotta sit down once more to post on steemit (lol). Who said it was going to be easy. ▼ω▼

It's better to hang out with people better than you. Pick out associates whose behavior is better than yours and you'll drift in that direction.
You’re so right!! Thank you so much!!

It’s a blessing but it’s not easy. It’s a grind and it takes improvement every day. Nothing worth having comes easy.
