According to all TikTok, YouTube, and LinkedIn professional video standards, this video is a hot mess.
Check the short video below:
You will see:
**I don’t have a light ring, and my lighting is definitely off.
**I don’t have a tripod (so excuse the occasional shake).
**I don’t have a mic, compounded by my whispering since my travel partner, my cousin Jen, is sleeping in the room next to where I am recording in our Airbnb apartment in Valencia, Spain. I don’t want to wake her up.
**I didn’t bullet-point out my speaking points…so this may be a bit rambly and non-linear.
**And I’m not in full makeup…, and my mom would be upset that I didn’t brush my hair (vacation mode and all…).
However, I am not wearing a pajama top! (Yes, I am still wearing my pajama bottoms 🤫).
And I debated doing this video…because does anyone need to hear what I have to say looking like I do?
Probably not…
And in my 4 years of doing a video per week, I have missed an occasional week here and there. So that was always an option for me…
But I stopped lamenting and mentally churning after about 40 minutes and decided to do the video in my very imperfect state (and I reaallllyyy didn’t want to do the makeup and hair …. I’m sure you relate…).
I did the video because I wanted to show that we can imperfectly show up to be consistent…and you will still most likely reach someone who needs to be reached that day.
In fact….Imperfect Consistency Is The Key To My Success.
It’s not about the volumes of likes and clicks that I get. It’s about who resonates with the message, whether I know it or not.
That’s what works for me.
So who do you need to reach out to today to move your job search forward or enrich your network?
What do you need to say on a social media platform today to help someone else?
Who do you need to thank today? (And in my video, I thank my words-can’t-describe-how-amazing-they-are, but-I’m-gonna-say-they-are-amazing Chameleon Team for allowing me to take this incredible vacation to Spain with my cousin Jen).
What’s the one thing you don’t feel prepared to do that you can / should still do today?
How can you be imperfectly consistent today?
DM me or say it below, and I’ll say “great job” when you do it. (Give me a couple of days to reply as I’ll be just getting back as this goes out).
Let’s do this people 😉
