Day 15 - It's easy to shoot too much video when you are having fun (and thank you for reading)
Also, let's also celebrate the halfway mark
Before I give you today’s update, I just want to take a moment to celebrate.
We’re on Day 15 of a 30-day challenge. So we’re halfway there. And by reading each day, you’ve helped us get here. So thank you.
Whatever project you’re working on, I urge you to celebrate milestones. It’s fun and keeps you motivated. And every time I do, a few of you pop out of the woodwork to encourage me which helps a lot.
Thanks in advance for the encouragement I know is coming 😉
So without further ado, below is today’s update.
Today I outlined and shot a video demo for Part 3 of my course.
The video demonstrated how I sort my files at the end of my week, keeping my PARA system clean and well-functioning. It's 27 minutes long which is far too long to demonstrate the process. I also realize that the first step is not needed. So I'll probably remove it.
The main value of the video is hearing how I make decisions about where something should go.
I end up creating new folders.
I rename items to make them more discoverable later.
I delete things that are not needed.
And you hear me explain why I made each choice as I go along.
I would share a link to the raw, unedited video but it has some confidential information that I'll need to blur out before I can show it to you.
Tomorrow, I'll either edit that video or shoot a new one using what I learned today.
Thanks for reading.
