Chatty post time! ;)
After watching Patricia’s Youtube video which was
about her You Tube story, I felt really inspired by how much she achieved!
There was one thing she mentioned in the video, which was how she kept her You
Tube channel a secret from her friends and family! And now her channel is
really successful!.. Her video is here; - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dSFYmrvGg3I
Anyways I thought I would share and query with my
fellow bloggers about how much you separate
your blogging/You Tube life to your “real life”
I had a You Tube Channel But
my younger brother found out about it last year, and decided to show my mum!
Cringe! I really enjoyed making the videos (which were from beauty to comedy)
and I racked up 700 subscribers within around 8 months (that was a lot to me!)
I even decided to show 2 of my best friends 2 of the videos, and they cracked
up, which was a good thing because they were my “comedy” style videos. BUT they
didn’t support me at all, and are oblivious to the world of You Tube, (they only
use it for music.) SO after all my hard work, I decided to not be on You Tube
anymore *sad face*
The reason I don’t show my friends and
family my blog is because I had a blog before, and even
though I had support from some of my friends I felt I would be “judged” for
every single post I put on my blog and so I had no motivation. Although I do not show anyone this current
blog, I still tell people I’m into blogging, they always ask me to see it, but
even though I really want to show the people.. I won’t. One day I will, but not
until I feel the blog is at a point in which I can say I’m proud of it..
So ye that’s my story, but I’m really interested
to know if any other bloggers or youtubers share their online productivity? Do you
have support? And do you feel embarrassed?
Thanks for reading :)
