Don’t worry about getting it exactly right the first time. Refine your technique and improve as you go.
It doesn’t have to be perfect

Wanting to make things perfect can stop you from taking action. Without taking action, you won’t get results. Practice taking baby steps and improve as you go.
Instead of trying to make a perfectly lit, perfectly scripted and edited video, just take a video with your phone. The way to make great videos is to make a lot of videos and keep making small improvements. The key is to have good content and one of the best ways to develop good content is to make a lot of mistakes and learn from them.
Make consistent improvements
We might want to be able to make a perfect post, but it’s better to make 10 good posts than one perfect post. Instead of trying to make perfect content, just make a post, then another, then another. The way to make better posts is to make a lot of posts and keep improving. Over time, you will refine your message, your technique and delivery. You can also leverage software and other people to improve the quality of your content.
We all start as beginners in everything
Every talented artist, musician, athlete, etc started as a beginner. If you saw them the first time they tried to play their instrument or their sport, you would not be impressed. If you watched their long struggle to master their craft, you would be bored. You’ve got to embrace the struggle, embrace imperfect action to move your business forward or to move forward in any area of life. It’s by making mistakes and learning from them that you learn to master something, mistakes are essential to growth.
Get help where you need it
