Advantages to Making Your Own YouTube Videos

Are you a fan of YouTube?  If you enjoy watching free videos online, from a number of different genres, you may be a huge fan of YouTube.  Although many internet users only watch videos on YouTube, there are many who also post their own YouTube videos.  If you have never done so before, you may be wondering whether or not you really should.  To determine whether or not you should make and upload your own videos to the YouTube website, you will want to examine the advantages or the plus sides to doing so.

Perhaps, the biggest advantage to making your own YouTube videos is that your videos can be just about whatever you want them to be.  Popular videos on YouTube right now include comedy skits, video blogs, how-to videos, and music videos from up and coming artists.  Whether you want to make a video blog of yourself or if you and your friends want to just have fun with a video camera, you can do so.

Of course, when making a YouTube video you will want to use your best judgment.  Although YouTube accepts videos on a wide variety of different subjects, you will want to proceed with caution.  You should always be cautious of online predators; therefore, you will want to be cautious about divulging too much information about yourself.  You might not necessarily think about it, but you also want to make sure that you don’t record and post anything illegal on YouTube.  It has been said that YouTube regularly works with law enforcement to help solve crimes. That just goes to show that you never really who is watching your videos or what the consequences for posting them might be.

Another one of the many advantages or pros to making your own YouTube videos is that it is relatively easy to do.  Of course, you will need to have a video recording device. What is nice is that there are a number of different recording devices that you can use. For instance, many cell phones now come equipped with video recording capabilities.  In addition to cell phones, you should also be able to use traditional camcorders or webcams.  For the best quality YouTube video, you will want to have a movie editing software program.  Movie editing software programs will not only give you the ability to preview your videos, before uploading them to YouTube, but you should also be able to edit them, if you would like to remove something and so on. 

Once you made one of your videos and uploaded it onto your computer, you will find that getting your video uploaded to YouTube’s website is just as easy. In fact, that is another one of the many advantages to making your own YouTube videos.  Just like actually making the video itself, uploading a YouTube video is as easy at it can be.  If you have never uploaded a video to YouTube before, you should be able to do, with ease. The YouTube uploading learning curve is so easy that you if you continue to make videos for the YouTube website you will be uploading them and sharing them with the internet community in no time at all. 

Another benefit of making your own videos and uploading them to YouTube comes after the fact.  After you have uploaded your videos to YouTube and they are available for viewing, anyone with an internet connection can visit the YouTube website to view your videos.  This means that just one of you videos may be seen by thousands of people!  In fact, if those viewers are registered members of YouTube they can rate your YouTube videos or even leave comments for you.  This feature is nice because it gives you positive and sometimes even negative feedback; feedback that can be taken into consideration if and when you choose to make any more YouTube videos.

As you can see, there are a number of pros or advantages to making your own videos to share on YouTube.  As you likely know, there are also a number of disadvantages to doing so as well, including safety.  However, as long as you display caution when making a YouTube video or when talking with other YouTube members, your YouTube video making experience should be a positive one.

What Are the Questions You Ask Yourself?

Are you tired? Frustrated or angry? Depressed? Overwhelmed? Do you feel anxious? Do you feel like you just cannot cope?




The good news there is some simple, easy, pleasant and effective ways to manage these painful events.



You will find there are a number of personal strategies that will have you feeling better quickly. You will also be able to gain a greater insight and understanding about your feelings and behavior.



This simple process will also give you an intimate access to your inner most feelings and thoughts, thus helping you to make positive health and happiness changes.



You can get started by slowing down and beginning to listen to your ever present self talk. These conversations are sitting most of the time just outside of your conscious focus so you will want to quite yourself so you can become more aware of them.



Listen to the things you are saying in your mind.



To begin the process asks yourself. Do I frequently say or ask myself any of the following questions?



Why me?



Why do I have to put up with this?



When is it ever going to end?



Why do I always have to struggle?



Why cannot my friends/family be more_______?



Why do I always have to take care of things?



Why cannot others help?



Why are people against me?



Why do I have to live like this?



Why do I always have to suffer?



When am I going to get an opportunity to _____?



Why cannot I be lucky?



When is it going to be my turn?



Why not me?



Now go back and read the list slowly. Read each question, and wait for an answer before going to the next question. Take a couple of minutes to do this now.



Did you notice what happened? Did you notice your automatic responses to these questions?



If you did not, try it again, and listen. Your mind instantly responds to these questions with answers.



Where did these answers come from? Are they something you have consciously chosen or decided?



For the next couple of days allow yourself to be aware of the questions you ask. Write them down. Practice hearing the answers your mind provides you to these questions.



Simply observe the questions and responses you automatically think or say. Finally, notice how you feel physically, mentally and emotionally.

So to recap:



1. Become aware of the questions you ask frequently without thinking.



2. Notice the answers your mind automatically provides.



3. Feel. Feel how these questions and answers affect you mentally, emotionally and physically.



4. Feel how your feelings are before and after you ask the questions.



5. Notice if there are any resistance to certain or specific questions.



6. Are any questions particularly painful or disturbing?



7. Allow yourself to hold and feel good, happy and pleasant feelings.



When you allow yourself to feel and experience your thoughts and feelings not only are you on a path to greater awareness. You also will be happier and healthier mentally, spiritually, physically and emotionally.

Your body feels a smile as HAPPY!! Your body senses a smile as HAPPY!! So even if you are not in the best or most excellent cheer, sunny feelings, peak spirits, jubilant energy or feelings of ecstacy – when you assume those postures or attitudes your subconsciousness sees them for what they are – good, sunny, high-quality, superior, good, quality, beneficial, enjoyable and pleasant feelings.

Trust in MLM Lead System Pro…Is it OK? Can it help an ailing pocketbook?

Trust is not what it used to be when your word was good and a handshake was believed to be a bond of confidence. What has happened – that people do not know their neighbor and you need prenuptial agreements with bars on your doors and windows?

The real problem is putting bars on your heart. You say I am not going to get burned again I will never let myself be vulnerable. I worked so hard on the last Offline MLM opportunity only to have them go bankrupt. My friends and family lost time and money to! This all seemed to happen at the worst time when money is tight and it is hard to believe any opportunity can bring any relief or benefit.

There are increasing pressures on everyone to make-ends meet. That has many looking for opportunities and MLMs have traditionally fit the bill but for many to make some extra income. Yet they have an ever nagging fear – will this work? Still Home based businesses are looked at as a possible way to have a part time or full time income at home.

Most folks are familiar with someone they know who is vacationing in the Bahamas because they made it big in some MLM opportunity. Yet no matter how hard they try they just do not seem to have the time or energy that is takes to get a home based business going. Have you been there?

Well I certainly have. Spending years, spending money, spending hope and what was the result? Nothing! No money, no increased time, no relief and worst of all no trust in the system. It became increasingly harder and harder for me to portray myself as successful when it was obvious that my fear and frustration were on the rise. Are you here or have you been were you just did not feel you could go on any more? If so you are not alone.

Is it safe to go back in the water? Is there any hope if no one has any trust and runs from any mention of a MLM?

Yes there is! Once I found out that it was not me. The real problem was the system. You cannot expect to be successful if you do not have the right tools, training or support to help you build your business.

That is where MLM Lead System Pro comes in – I know you may be thinking – Oh! Yea! I have heard this before! And that is how I thought until I began to get an education. Education about the internet, MySpace, Facebook, Twitter, Plaxo, Digg and an array of other internet tools and technology that did not exists just a few years ago.

If you had car trouble wouldn't you take your car to the best and most trusted mechanic that you know? The MLM Lead System Pro Team is the most knowledgeable and diversified group I have ever met. What is truly amazing: they not only care but give out tons of free teaching and education. Plus you can trust their word because they have been "there" and they know that true success comes from helping others, building relationships, building value and sharing experience.

Do you need more Leads, Money, Education, Support and Peace of Mind? Act Now! http://iamserenity.com

How to Reprogram Your Subconscious 101

Recently I was listening to a Bruce Lipton CD and noted that he pointed out - that about “95%” of your activities and behaviors - are run by your subconscious mind which is at least a million times more powerful than your conscious mind. After I posted this information in a blog someone quickly pointed out that it was 90% not 95% of all activities.

Well I did a trusty Google search and sure enough some said 90% and others 95% but really? When the ratio is 1 million to 1 - it is sort of like comparing a snail to the speed of light and how far they get in 5 minutes.

You know your subconscious mind if powerful but stop a minute and reflect on the million to 1. What does that really mean?

It means you have an incredibly powerful super-computer at your disposal and if you know how to use it and control it – it literally will bring magic into your life.

How to Reprogram Your Subconscious 101

“Wax on Wax off” a famous saying from “The Karate Kid” movie.

This is the “wax on wax off” for reprogramming your subconscious mind.

- Awareness of your inner self

“Logic Holes” – How They Help You

What is a “Logic Hole?” About 25 years ago I coined the term “Logic Hole” to mean a literal hole or blind spot in your thinking. Many of my friends and co-workers have been exposed to the idea through my zealous efforts to share poems or thoughts of wisdom.

Now because I did not publicly publish the concept in a prestigious magazine article like “The New York Times,” or “Ladies Home Journal” it is not widely known or understood. I just did a recent Google search for the words “logic hole” to see what use the term currently has – I found out that it is associated mostly with black holes.

As you see this is a bit of a tongue-in-cheek article and slip-shod humor but what else can you do when your stock portfolio falls faster than your diet when you go to the “Cheesecake Factory.”

Let’s get serious and learn how to use this useful concept. So, what is a “logic hole?”

That can be answered by how I came upon the discovery of the idea. I had been playing a great deal of chess at the time and mind you I was no slouch almost a “Grand Master. “ Remember the humor? Anyway I really am a good chess player and I found that when the computer would announce “mate-in-one” – which meant - the game was going to be over with the computer’s next move regardless of what move I was going to make.

Now - no matter how hard I looked – I could not see what the computer had up its sleeve and sure enough when it made its next move it was “check mate” game over.

This happened time and time again even though I really was close to being a “Chess Master.” For some reason I just could not “see” a simple one-move-mate.

Then it occurred to me! I could not see something so simple because of how “my own logic and perspective viewed the problem.” Then, “Logic Holes” were discovered.

I realized that there were blind spots in my thinking process. They are much like the blind spot you experience when you look into your side mirror when you are driving on the freeway. If you have a cargo van - like I do - you have to be very careful when changing lanes. These blind spots can cause you to easily hit a little car that has snuck up beside you and is sitting in that blind spot where you cannot see it.

Logic holes are very similar to that blind spot in your side mirror. Unless you move your head around a bit the blind spot in your mirror will prevent you from knowing what is in the next lane. This problem has been so great that special curved mirrors have been invented to correct the hazard.

The key is that “logic holes” exist in our logic and conscious thinking. They also exist in society’s mass consciousness so that simple items or concepts like the Frisbee were around for many years before a patented was applied for.

You more than likely have seen simple inventions and said to yourself, “why didn’t I think of that?” Well that was a “logic hole.”

The significance of this information is that once you know that these “holes” exist, you can look for them. You will know that ideas and concepts are sitting all around you and you will be able to see them if you just change your perspective or view of life or ideas slightly.

So happy hunting!
