Every week I do a video blog (of VLOG). This week I talked about my reread list.
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 Reread Lists
It isn’t enough to read books. You have to spend your time reading the books that matter. A Reread list ensures your library is full of books that do.
- Developing The List – Books come out often. So often, we can’t keep up. I think we all should read. With that said, its best to spend your time reading the books that have the most impact. To get there, it’s a war of attrition. Be ruthless and give away the books that give you what you need.
- Gifts – If you have a list, now you have books that give others value. Instead of giving random books, now you can gift books that you know help people.
What I Learned Doing This Video
- I hunch a lot, I need to straighten up while I do this.
- A waiter pad helped cut this down. It is now in the tool box for preproduction.
- I found out my tripod got higher (every week I learn something new about equipment). Makes everything look better when the camera is higher than me.
