Yesterday, I referenced a podcast in which I heard the term Marching Orders. This connected with me, because I feel I received a Marching Order of sorts last week - and it directed me to look into Video Blogging as an enhanced creative expression to the writing I do. I chose to follow this prompting and set a goal to release my first ever Video Blog by this Friday, Nov. 20th.
I watched tutorials, learned the basics of working the camera, editing the footage, getting over how much I don't look like the image of myself in my head (in my head, I weigh less, my hair is always perfect, and I always sit centered on the screen), that kind of thing.
This is the point where Fear stepped up and filled my head with the anchors of doubt, uncertainty, and a grand desire to call myself ridiculous and move on.
I actually expected Fear's arrival ~ it's become a predictable pattern. So this time, I was ready. I gathered my Courage and my Inner Power ~ and decided to create and upload the V-Blog TODAY! Ha! Take that Fear!!
Here it is. I just know they will get better in time ...

Oh sally! I just love you to PIECES! This is going to be really wonderful!! I can't wait to see more! Love, Carm
THANK YOU!!! Whew ... I can't even begin to tell you how awkward all this feels ...
Sally, the awkwardness will pass with experience. Your courage to kick fear to the curb has inspired me to try to find the courage within myself to conquer my own fears. Your vlog is off to a great start and I just know it in my bones that this is only the beginning....
Ahhhhh Sally! I'm sorry I'm late to the party. This is soooo exciting and I'm so proud of you!!! Off to watch video #2.... -Kerri
