I used to have extreme social anxiety; whenever I walked anywhere, I always had this feeling that people could see through my soul, and they could see how bad a person I was. I had no self-esteem. I used to hate myself, but that has changed.
I've been creating content for the past 5 years, all different forms of content. But, writing is completely different than recording videos showing your face, over 90% of people have this fear of being judged if they record videos of themselves talking about what they're interested in or really creating content about anything they have passion for.
I can confidently say I don't have this kind of fear, I can post the dumbest or the most embarrassing videos without any second thoughts, but what could be the reason behind this shift?
I just realized that no one is that concerned about me, no one is watching in other words, but even more importantly, that when they do they wouldn't be judging. But what if they do judge? I simply do not care.
It was a whole journey of self-discovery that got me here, and I can't tell you the sole reason behind this shift, but all I know is, you, and all the people you're afraid of their judgment will die very soon. Would you want to have this regret before you die of not posting content that you always wanted to create or really doing any other thing just because Joe might have had something negative to say or think of you?
Ask yourself, would you let this fear stop you from doing what you always dreamed of doing?
