Taha (aka khanstopme on YouTube) is making short daily videos as a way to get back into making videos, get better at public speaking, and generally have some public accountability for his goals.
I’ve been thinking of making videos for a decade, but there’s a million reason why I’m putting it off. At least three of them have to do with not wanting my face on camera every day.
You know what doesn’t have that roadblock? Blogging.
What I want from this
- Get more comfortable with not just thinking a bunch of thoughts, but also putting them into words
- That other people might read
- And hopefully understand
I’ve been doing a lot of writing for work, but a lot of that is about taking boring facts and making them… marginally more interesting. That’s a very different kind of writing. It’s not about expressing how I feel/what I think, but just about regurgitating ideas.
What I want to do is get back to being able to have a thought and express it (more or less coherently).
So, hopefully this is the first of many occasions when I start “showing up”.
