What Has Stopped Me From Getting Started On YouTube … Until Now

Written By Dave Haworth

For quite sometime, I have wanted to get serious about consistently posting on YouTube. There have been false starts. And frankly, my not making it a priority. Whether it be because, I wasn’t sure what I would present on a YouTube channel, the anxiousness of putting yourself out there, my videos are not as good as others, or I was over planning. Yes, I have hesitated because of all of it.

Coming into 2026, I told myself, that I am going to fight through all the road blocks and commit to giving it a serious go. The below in my first video in the journey, where I discuss the obstacles and what I am doing to overcome them.
