A Week of Achievement: Seven Days of Significance

Throughout the week, I've been focused on getting my first podcast episode just right. Editing my script every day has almost worn out my fingers, and I've recorded and deleted countless times because getting a perfect voice recording is tough, especially with my not-so-great microphone.

Eventually, I settled for what I could manage. I stopped striving for perfection because I've already delayed this plan enough. If I keep putting it off, it might never happen, so I needed to start now.

I decided to repurpose my old YouTube channel that I used for promoting games. While I hesitated to delete the videos with five-digit views, I wasn't sure if I could replicate that success, so I chose to remove them.

I've also been gradually losing subscribers because I've been trying to shift my niche.

My first priority was refining the script for my video. As mentioned earlier, I've made multiple edits. Then, I tackled recording my voice, which took more than 10 attempts due to my less-than-ideal microphone.

Next, I pondered how to create the video for my podcast. I didn't have any recordings to show, and I still felt awkward recording while facing the camera and speaking. (Though I have plans for that in the future, hence setting up my studio in the spare room.)

So, I opted for an animated background image instead.

Anyway, I completed my video earlier today, and I'm feeling happy.

Happy because I've taken the first steps towards my goal. I'll leave it up to God for the next stage and whether He'll guide the listeners there. Hopefully, He will. Hahaha!

Oh, and by the way, my video podcast is in Tagalog. If you have some time, please give it a listen and share your thoughts on how I can improve, aside from the obvious issue with my microphone.

I can confidently say it was a week well spent. I'm genuinely happy :)
