0.000 HBDMy Mindset Before Trying Something New: Live Streaming on My iPhone!
[](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DX6LMynQlu8) How do we get the courage to try something new? I filmed this video which is transcribed into this post just before trying *Facebook* live for the first time on my iPhone with the purpose of helping more of us discover Steem during the live streams. What I hope is helpful is seeing how I intend to do whatever it is even though the evidence may not provide proof that it will work. Note I have switched to the YouTube video link here instead of [on DLive](https://dlive.io/video/jerrybanfield/28c17320-41b6-11e8-836a-b9befc1a6029 ) because the video did not go through correctly to the new @dlive database while the post did still appear on Steem! ## My mindset prior to trying something new like live streaming on my phone! When we go live online, how do we think beforehand? I told you I'm about to go live on *Facebook,* but I don't even have the *Facebook* app on my phone. I've never went live on *Facebook* on my phone before. I just expect I intend to. You see, my mindset, I intend to go live on *Facebook* on my phone. Now, I realize it might not sign in correctly, that my phone might not work properly. I realize there's a bunch of things that could happen. What I start with is a mindset of what I intend to do and I just expect that I will be able to do it, that if something goes wrong I will figure it out. This helps me to deal with the opposition, which is fear because there's certainly the fear there that I will put the *Facebook* app on my phone and they will blow me up with notifications, that I will do it and it won't work, that I won't look good or I won't sound good.  About everything you could imagine, not everything, like I haven't appeared naked in the middle of the internet or anything. I have experienced a lot of things going wrong in my time live streaming and it's okay. That is okay. What makes all the difference in the world is having a mindset of I'm going to do this, I'm going to try this and let's see what happens. I don't think about all the things that might go wrong or could go wrong, or what people will think of me. I don't care what someone looking on there, seeing me live streaming on their phone thinks, good or bad: *"Oh, Jerry's the best. Oh, Jerry's the worst."* So what? I'm here to do good. I'm here to make a difference. What am I live streaming about? I'm just doing a really quick update. I'm going to start doing live streams every morning on *Wednesdays* at *10:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. Eastern,* which is *Florida, New York* time. Now, what I'm doing is just going to put that out really quick. I used to think these kind of updates were pointless and what I'm learning is a little update is a big difference between none. I hope what I've communicated here is that I am starting in the same position you might be, where you have never done something before and it might look scary.  The mindset makes all the difference. I just look at it and say, *"I'm going to do this. I will do this,"* and in my mind, I've already done it. I've already told everyone. I’ve already thought about what I was going to say on the video even though I don't have clear proof that I can do that in front of me, I just have faith. I'm sure I can put the *Facebook* app on my phone. I'm sure I can adjust the settings so it doesn't totally screw my phone up again and I'm sure that I will be able to do a quick live video onto my *Facebook* page. You see, that gives me the courage to try, and ultimately it comes down to trying because I can't decide whether it will work or not, but my mindset gives me the courage to make an effort. So, if you have never live-streamed before, you have never done it a certain way before, you have never used a certain program, the main resistance that comes into play is fear. *"I'm afraid this won't work."* The nice thing is things that don't work give us guidance as to what not to do, which is just as helpful as what to do. So, I'm going to do this video live on *Facebook* on my phone now, and I plan to do one on *YouTube* on my phone. I haven't done that before. I plan to learn how to do *Twitter* on my phone. I haven't done that before, and I'm excited to learn how to do these things because it's fun to learn and grow. Things that don't learn and grow decay and die, and then get to be something else. I'm enjoying being in this body. I'm enjoying being in this life. I'm enjoying continuing learning and growing. I'm grateful to have the chance to do that here with you today in my studio and I'm honored you're watching this course. This technically is the first video of this course I filmed because the mindset is critical.  Even when I'm planning all these things out in advance, I realized I need to know how to live stream on *Facebook, YouTube* and *Twitter* to be able to teach that. So, what I do is start learning how to do it, and then I teach it right away. These are things you can learn how to do, and then be showing people how to do literally even before you have done them before. BAM! Thank you for watching or reading this. I love you. You are awesome. I hope you've enjoyed the video on what my mindset is before I go live when I'm trying something new I haven't done before. Oh, finally. One more thing. There's always one more thing! One more thing. You might be thinking that I'm nervous, I'm scared. How do I deal with that? I pray. You can pray or you can set your power of intention. If you just hate God, *"God's disgusting."* If you just hate *God,* don't worry about *God,* just pray and set the intention like, *"Please let me do a good job with this,"* or *"I intend to do a great job of this. I intend to help people with my live stream. What would I like to do God? Please help me be of service to you today. Please help me do good with this if I'm supposed to do good with it and if I'm not, well, then help me to change that."* You see it can get complicated. *"God, please help me. Thank you for the chance to live stream."*  BAM! That helps me to have my energy focused. Nervousness is just energy that's not focused. If you really care about what you are doing, there should be some energy about it and if it's nervous energy, it just needs to be focused into energy of help, love and service, and prayer helps a lot with that. Now, I'm actually done, but I'm going to talk for like *10 more hours* in the other videos and posts!
