Scion of NLP

Posts Tagged ‘vlogs’

As most people know, a personal blog originated as a public journal kept on the internet … web + log = blog …

Now, with the availability of You Tube and such, people have begun doing vlogs, which are blogs in video format … video + blog = vlog …

Some people feel this turn of events is one more cheezy form of internet tackiness, however, as a person who is camera shy it’s been constantly brought to my attention that I need more ‘face time’ with my fans — the reason being, with the launch of my new book and high hopes of selling 100,000 copies I’m going to be needing to do promotion … which is going to involve radio and tv. This means I need to get over my fear of film … (*gulp*) … so, I have one of my first vlogs from my Verbal Self Defense website (www.VerbalDefenseTactics.com):

Curiously, one side note I’d like to mention is regarding something Dean Hunt said on his blog late last year …

‘The money is where the fear is.’

… and I really liked that quote. What Dean meant was that the people who get paid the most are the ones who do the things most people are afraid to do … like (in my case) public speaking. Teaching NLP certification courses is more than sharing information … it’s the confidence of putting one’s own ability on the line and stepping up … so here I go (again)!

  Oh yeah! That’s me beh-beh! (*little dance of joy*)
