When things get tough, the tough get going. When lockdown, unlock down, and everything in between makes headlines, I keep calm by planning for my Instagram live tomorrow. It sounds strange. But these times are extraordinary.

Yes, things like that really work. Be so busy working that you have no time to worry. You sleep better, look better, and feel better. Also doing one difficult thing every day is great for morale.
I am an ENT surgeon with 13 years of experience working in this specialization. I am Blogging since 2014. For the last two years, I have used video and audio in various forms on my Blog. .I started making videos from 2018. But I was clueless. It was for a #Semrush contest that things changed.
Why should you think video even when you are a #blogger and #author first?
Making videos are a lot of work. Is it even worth it?
Yes, it is. But how long? What if it doesn’t look super glossy and well made? Unless you have a team behind you doing all that, it’s likely your first video will be as cringe-worthy as mine was. You can check my Youtube channel for the first videos.
I make a video as an add on to my Blog. Growing YouTube presence is only as an associated goal, not a primary one. Remember, you want your own platform to grow, while you grow your social presence. The good thing about YouTube is, it’s a search engine and a Google product. So the videos help in multiple ways.
What will I be discussing?
Blog or YouTube?Rented land or own home? What comes first, chicken or egg?
What is the number one reason I use video for my Blog
The exact workflow for making videos, even when life is super busy. (I am also a mommy) .
How do I make videos quickly? I have no high-tech, expensive stuff.
I will share the specific tools I use (most are free).
How do I avoid screen fright? What I avoid, and probably you should too.
How it helps my Blog & the #Healthwealthbridge Brand.
I first thought it was going to be an interview, turns out it will be like an online class. Thats something I am looking forward to. I like teaching. Thats the reason I started blogging. The entire world to share health -wellness and my journey towards financial freedom.
But teaching about video? Nah, that was not the plan. But starting small is always my thing. I also like sharing what helps me. That’s how I wrote my book Starting a successful blog
It is now free on Prime reading and free on Kindle unlimited. You can always buy the book and gift a new blogger friend.

You make videoing aoubd so easy. I’d love to start adding a few videos to my blog but I’m scared! Scared I’ll sound stupid, will get tongue tied or get brain fade. But I just might give it a try!
