It&#8217;s always at the back of my mind I do plan out videos in my head what would be said, thumbnails, video names, ideas and more its just always there. It&#8217;s not the content that is the problem I already have video ideas the <img data-attachment-id="2080" data-permalink="https://itsemer.wordpress.com/2017/04/18/start-a-youtube-channel/confidence/" data-orig-file="https://itsemer.files.wordpress.com/2017/04/confidence.png?w=156&#038;h=193" data-orig-size="202,249" data-comments-opened="1" data-image-meta="{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}" data-image-title="confidence" data-image-description="" data-medium-file="https://itsemer.files.wordpress.com/2017/04/confidence.png?w=156&#038;h=193?w=202" data-large-file="https://itsemer.files.wordpress.com/2017/04/confidence.png?w=156&#038;h=193?w=202" class="  wp-image-2080 alignright" src="https://itsemer.files.wordpress.com/2017/04/confidence.png?w=156&#038;h=193" alt="confidence" width="156" height="193" srcset="https://itsemer.files.wordpress.com/2017/04/confidence.png?w=156&amp;h=193 156w, https://itsemer.files.wordpress.com/2017/04/confidence.png?w=122&amp;h=150 122w, https://itsemer.files.wordpress.com/2017/04/confidence.png 202w" sizes="(max-width: 156px) 100vw, 156px" />problem is me holding myself back because of fear, lack of confidence and failure 😦 I hate being in pictures so being in front of a camera talking I don&#8217;t see how I could manage that 😛 I already have my channel it&#8217;s just concert videos (so I do already have people who watch my videos) but I would like to start adding original content just need to get the confidence to do it. I think I would like filming videos, editing, coming up with video ideas and all that I know it&#8217;s really time-consuming and I know people can be horrible and tear you apart but who cares that&#8217;s their thoughts not everyone&#8217;s thoughts. Then people may not like you the way you make your videos your content but then again if your happy with what you upload then that&#8217;s all that matt<img data-attachment-id="2084" data-permalink="https://itsemer.wordpress.com/2017/04/18/start-a-youtube-channel/fear-of-failure/" data-orig-file="https://itsemer.files.wordpress.com/2017/04/fear-of-failure.jpg?w=308&#038;h=144" data-orig-size="640,300" data-comments-opened="1" data-image-meta="{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}" data-image-title="fear-of-failure" data-image-description="" data-medium-file="https://itsemer.files.wordpress.com/2017/04/fear-of-failure.jpg?w=308&#038;h=144?w=300" data-large-file="https://itsemer.files.wordpress.com/2017/04/fear-of-failure.jpg?w=308&#038;h=144?w=640" class="  wp-image-2084 alignleft" src="https://itsemer.files.wordpress.com/2017/04/fear-of-failure.jpg?w=308&#038;h=144" alt="fear-of-failure.jpg" width="308" height="144" srcset="https://itsemer.files.wordpress.com/2017/04/fear-of-failure.jpg?w=308&amp;h=144 308w, https://itsemer.files.wordpress.com/2017/04/fear-of-failure.jpg?w=614&amp;h=288 614w, https://itsemer.files.wordpress.com/2017/04/fear-of-failure.jpg?w=150&amp;h=70 150w, https://itsemer.files.wordpress.com/2017/04/fear-of-failure.jpg?w=300&amp;h=141 300w" sizes="(max-width: 308px) 100vw, 308px" />ers right? I know there is plenty more people the same as me who have been wanting to make a channel but haven&#8217;t due to fear. People you know finding your channel is another thing that scares me because they will judge you a lot worse than random people who don&#8217;t know you personally. So many kids like 8-12 year olds are uploading videos, doing vlogs and have a YouTube channel and I&#8217;m there thinking how have they that much confidence and self belief to do it? They have no problem uploading videos of themselves and call themselves youtubers 😛 yet there&#8217;s me much older who can&#8217;t even be in a picture its mad. Like everything else there are lots of positives and negatives to <img data-attachment-id="2089" data-permalink="https://itsemer.wordpress.com/2017/04/18/start-a-youtube-channel/youtube-2/" data-orig-file="https://itsemer.files.wordpress.com/2017/04/youtube.png?w=201&#038;h=125" data-orig-size="773,481" data-comments-opened="1" data-image-meta="{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}" data-image-title="youtube" data-image-description="" data-medium-file="https://itsemer.files.wordpress.com/2017/04/youtube.png?w=201&#038;h=125?w=300" data-large-file="https://itsemer.files.wordpress.com/2017/04/youtube.png?w=201&#038;h=125?w=773" class="  wp-image-2089 alignright" src="https://itsemer.files.wordpress.com/2017/04/youtube.png?w=201&#038;h=125" alt="youtube" width="201" height="125" srcset="https://itsemer.files.wordpress.com/2017/04/youtube.png?w=201&amp;h=125 201w, https://itsemer.files.wordpress.com/2017/04/youtube.png?w=402&amp;h=250 402w, https://itsemer.files.wordpress.com/2017/04/youtube.png?w=150&amp;h=93 150w, https://itsemer.files.wordpress.com/2017/04/youtube.png?w=300&amp;h=187 300w" sizes="(max-width: 201px) 100vw, 201px" />YouTube but to me I think the positives over shadow the negatives in my mind anyways. Still hoping one day I break the barrier I have up for myself and start doing the videos I&#8217;ve wanted to do for a few years now and see if anyone has an interest in what I have to say could surprise myself and actually help people. I think I would like it because anyone who knows me knows I&#8217;ll happily spend hours cropping, editing, formatting, filming stuff because I enjoy it so I don&#8217;t think I&#8217;d mind all the work that goes into it. I can&#8217;t be the only person who think&#8217;s like this 😛 Have you thought about starting a YouTube channel? If you have but haven&#8217;t actually done it why haven&#8217;t you? Let me know I&#8217;m curious to know and maybe one day I&#8217;ll manage to get over my fear and do this.</p>
