I can’t do it, but I will do

I don’t make, I cannot make, I procrastinate, I postpone making videos.

My friends and students create excellent videos.

Wow! I wish I could make them. I just ask my students, my friends and even my grandkids to make a video for me.

It is out of my comfort zone. I love to watch videos and enjoy it when others make it for me.

My friends encourage me, make my edits and my video is ready.

Now I have been challenged by Lucy Dan and by Manali Desai and I am ready not to rely upon others.

I will create my video right away however imperfect.

Even if my face looks crooked I will make the video every week, every month and the whole year through.

Cheers! No cheating!
