From Zero to Hero

[George Costanza]

My videos are vlogs, so its just me and the camera. I've never had fear about being in front of a camera. I've been into bodybuilding for a long time and at the gym guys often would come at me for advice or asking how to achieve that kind of body, this used to happen 3 times a week, So I had a demand. One day I was at home with some free time and recorded a 5min video giving tips, posted in a few forums and it became viral, then another and another but I've always struggled with being consistent. This first video was uploaded 6 years ago, so Youtube was way different, there were way less channels and the content was less professional than today.

For the fear, I would say practice, practice and practice. There is a reason why athletes and musicians practice for hours on a daily basis. The more you record and watch yourself, you will feel more confident and be able to spot what you are doing wrong, what you could improve and so on...

One more thing, think long term. What is the goal of your youtube channel? Make money? Fame? Generate a following? A hobby? The answer will tell how much you should invest.

Hey, first of all, thanks a lot!
That's a nice story, probs for that confidence.
For me, I made a video 3 weeks ago on a meme (which I don't really want my content to be in general, or think I can produce high quality stuff like that to compete and grow) and it got reuploaded to a local meme facebook page, and got 10k views there (afterwards I got credit and my actual video got 700 views) but it showed me, maybe I should give it a try?
Yeah that's very true, I should do it. I should just record some videos, I have some ideas.
I think I'll take a baby-step approach, first with only talking, and after I get used to that and improve, I'll record infront of a camera.
Actually, just like 20 minutes ago I was practicing infront of the mirror, talking like a youtuber - saying the usual words, talking as if it's a video, pointing to the description... etc. And it wasn't that bad!
I really gotta stop procrastinating and record something.
I am slowly making a "video bank" word document with every idea I get. I think I'm gonna do some rambling commentaries, and with time I should find a better idea of which content I want to create (I think of vlogs as a student helping with "student problems" when I'll be in college soon, general stuff about self improvement, book reviews, but also fun stuff like gaming and memes).

For now it's a hobby, but I do want to take it seriously and in the future earn ad revenue and turn it from a slowlane hobby to a fastlane career.

sorry for the TLDR, and thanks!
