Hello, Stu!
Today, the 14-Day Video Challenge officially begins! Right now, thousands of creators (beginners and pros alike) are hitting publish on their first short-form video.
And I have a feeling part of you wants to be one of them.
The good news is, it's not too late to join!
You might be thinking, “Pat, it starts today… How am I supposed to be ready in time?”
Here's my answer: you're more ready than you think.
Brainstorm your idea. (I'm willing to bet you've already been thinking about this.) Choose your hook (the first few seconds that will stop someone mid-scroll). Film it on your phone. Then SEND IT.
That's it.
Will it be perfect? Probably not. And that's completely okay. Today isn't about making the best video of your life. It's about making a video.
From there, you review, adjust, and keep going.

"Grounding, clarifying, and quietly transformative — this challenge helped me build consistency, confidence, and forward momentum by showing up imperfectly and learning in public."

I posted my first video today, too! You can check it out here. I’ll be posting every day throughout this challenge, just like you, sharing tips and encouragement to help keep you going.
Every creator you admire started somewhere. Today is your somewhere.
It's time to show up. Let's do this.
