Posted first two YouTube videos in the past week

I've been meaning to start posting on YouTube for a while. However, just like with blogging and email newsletter, something was stopping me. I think its perfectionism and performance anxiety.

My arena is digital productivity, so I felt like any video ideas would compete with the high production folks like Thomas Frank or Ali Abdaal. I guess that's still true but now I believe that the differentiation is not in the production value but in the character/personality of the host.

So based on that (possibly misguided) belief, I started posting Loom recordings on YouTube accompanying my newsletter issues (released two). Its not well produced at all. I'm slightly wondering whether its worth it. But I do think posting something is better than nothing.

Anywho, here are my first two videos:

  1. How to make better decisions with this framework and Notion template: https://youtu.be/kLiLQbNvKOc
  2. How our website is built on Notion: https://youtu.be/lYvGj519gU0

So far got 20 subscribers!
