I'm running a "Try Something New" Challenge...so it's only fitting I did something new myself.
I've never really been one to show my face online, being perfectly content being behind some text or a microphone.
So considering I'm running the #TrySomethingNew Challenge right now, it only seemed fitting to push myself slightly outside my own comfort zone. Just like I was asking others to do.
If you've not already gotten your submissions in for this, there are still a couple more days to enter with a change to win some of the 50 SBD prize pool! You can read the full contest rules here:
https://steemit.com/trysomethingnew/@sykochica/challenge-i-want-everybody-to-do-something-new-this-week-50-steem-dollars-in-prizes
It really pretty lax, merely calling for just what it says...push yourself to try something you've never tried. Write a post on it, and toss the link into the challenge's comments so I can find it. That's it!!
To me, this embodies the Steemit Spirit to share parts of yourself, learn from others and experience things you'd never even thought of doing. Some you like..some you won't...but I guaranty you one thing:
YOU WILL GROW!!

One more thing i would like to add to this, you need change everyday, if the new day is siMilar to previous then stand up and start working more harder
If you are not growing as a person everyday, you're dying 💪🏼🙌🏼💯... watching the vid as I write this 😂
Exactly!!
I'm way more skilled podcasting and writing, but that's ok. It's my turn to be a noob!
You should have seen me fighting just to get the dang camera and audio working! Lol
You are awesome @sykochica, you got this. I was a newb blogger three weeks ago, I think I'm getting good now haha
Thank you! :D
We'll see how it goes...how much I enjoy it. But at least it's all working now (thank god, lol). So next time I feel like pushing myself...it's only a couple button clicks away!
I remember when you first started up here...happening to catch your intro post! You definitely seem WAAAY more comfortable now. :)
Thanks! I am getting the hang of it, its so different than posting on facebook and Insta, looking forward to all your blogs :)
I do not like being on Video and I hate the sound of my voice. Hmm hmm hmm. I will check into said challenge
Yeah I'm one of those people as well. But there's nothing to worry about really, most people hate their voices :D
Yea, you sound so different than you think you do
Hehe..I can rather relate there! Though when I switch into podcast mode, my voice seems to get more confident.
I definitely hope you enter the challenge! Even if not being on video (that was just my thing), I look forward to what you do find. :)
am a follower now =D
Thank you!
I try to find new, innovative ways to push myself and others. :)
We'll see what comes next! Lol
We can now put a face to the unknown :D
Hehe...most definitely!!
I had a few pictures from the meetup, but nothing quite like this.
Always a voice of inspiration. I look forward to meeting you in person one day.
*On a side note - I understand the not getting too personal with faces attached to online things, especially with "big brother and facial recognition Ai" all up in our business.
While I can't argue the big brother points...it really doesn't bother me. I've never been one to shy away from whatever I feel like doing (obviously I keep myself within subjective moral and ethical grounds).
I've just been the type to not even think about faces, remembering people more for their core concepts, vibes/energies, etc. So things like this rarely even come to mind for me to do. But I'd thought about streaming some games a while back, hence why I had the camera. Lol
I hear ya. That's cool about the game streaming, I wish they had this tech years back was I was an avid gamer. I was a StarCraft junkie. - When you get a chance let me know about the steem cards stuff from your other post. I'm going to turn in now. I'll catch up with you in the morning.
Amazing post and it's nice to hear your voice. Thanks for all the help and best of luck in your goals. DR
oh I'd love to enter but the try something new I'm working on is actually a gift for someone here on steemit, who I don't want to see it before it's finished.
Wow!! this seems really interesting,
I have been so busy that I happened to miss this, anyway thank you for the reminder...
The audio was a little bit noisy tho, really loved how you speak :) :)
Way to lead by example and excellent initiative @sykochica! I'm actually thinking of doing more vlogs since I'm so comfortable blogging and writing fiction. Time to step it up a notch and grow even more in the process!
