Life As Usual Video Blog #7 – Habits

Every week I do a video blog (of VLOG). This week I talked about habits.

When I started this,  I was very scared of putting myself on video, so I got the courage and put myself in the arena, killing a lot of bad self talk.This gives me the chance to work on my communication skills, start a new medium, and experiment!

Once a week, after I have thought about them, I will give them a day here on the blog.

These aren’t just promotion posts (although they are, please watch and share :-) ) I want to take the time to break them down and try to clarify what I want to communicate and the tactical things I learned through doing.

What I Wanted To Communicate About Habits

I wanted to tie this weeks video with last weeks, so I made a video about habits, which has a strong tie to accountability.

I hit on three bullet points

  • Habits – What they are and why it’s important to look at them.
  • Ritual – The way you go about getting the habit done. The ritual is important because our bodies work in rhythm. Rituals give the bass line.
  • Starting Small – No one ever started weight lifting 225, so why do we do that with habits? Starting small makes it easier to work.

What I Learned Doing This Video

  • I look away a lot. I have to learn how to keep a straight face on the camera.
  • Editing this one was easier, I am getting more comfortable.
  • Instead of cutting one long tape, trying to do it in sequence I could do things in segments. They don’t have to have order either.
