About a year ago is when I made my first workout video. .

I enjoy making them- the creativity of it, the splitting of the clips, the exact moment when my face goes from normal human- to drunk sorority girl (you should SEE these edits man!)

Now that I’m getting back into it- it’s so hard NOT to play the comparison game.

It’s easy to type “workout video” in the YT search bar, look at some and get discouraged by how AWESOME they all are. .

But let me let you in on a little game I play with myself— 😳

It’s called “back and forth.” and it takes place in my mind. (no need to call the authorities, they are already aware of my case) 🚔

Pessimistic Patty--> (she resides in my mind on occasion):

“Jamie, you can’t post videos, YOU don’t have a super awesome camera!”

Optimistic Olivia chimes in

--> (this one is SUPER chipper and OFTEN annoying) “Well Patty- she does HAVE A camera, and to be honest, she’s pretty fortunate to even have that- so why don’t you just be quiet and let her film?

PP: “Yeah, but her “space is Sooooo LAME and she knows NOTHING about lighting or angles.”

OO: “She is incredibly fortunate to have a roof over her head and even have enough space to film”

Before I lose you into a conversation that can take place for hours, and ends up with me being in a straight jacket,

I will leave you with this→

“START where you are.

USE what you have.

DO what you can.” .
