I made some videos just now on my mobile but I have a dilemma.
I don’t know whether to share them with the world.

I have shared videos before on sites like Youtube, but never ones with me in the frame (apart from my hands in a how-to video).

Should I share my videos with the world?

Here are things I have come up with after some examination…

If I do share them: What is the worst that could happen?

• My cover is blown
• People will have a much clearer judgement on who I am
  • why, are you embarrassed about yourself?
    • yes, because I am not successful
      • success? how did ___insert role model here______ become successful? They started out from nothing.
        • My goal is to to pay off debt, get an electric vehicle and a carbon neutral house.
          • What are you doing right now?
            • Writing a blog about a personal information sharing dilemma!
              • So you’re doing this for fun, a spare time interest?
                • It would appear that way.
• Exposed, stalked, negative mysteries and the unknown
• I may later start posting bad videos prompting ridicule and argument (about whos way is better)
• Too much personal information. Where do you draw the line? Something useful!
  • Fear is ignorance.

Plus sides of sharing them:

• It could help others
• Shared experience
• Could get a lot of views?

So those are some good and bad things that could happen if I share. What could happen…

if I do not share my videos:

• I do not change. Living in festering stagnation.
• I stay largely unknown and misjudged
• I wont achieve a satisfying followment of audience -wtf

Plus sides of not sharing:

• I wont ruin anyone’s expectations

If you have thoughts on this, please consider leaving a comment.

Each will be appreciated in some way.
