Stuck without a story

Here I am looking to reboot, repivot, re-re my channel or whatever the latest trendy name is for scraping everything that you have done and trying something new. In the past I had things to guide me, like oh just mount this camera to my motorcycle or create a video about this cool new widget that I found that makes filming videos easier. But now I feel like I am in the creator abyss with nothing to guide me and the ever-growing pressure to just create something or just fall away into obscurity. The worse part of all of this is the 5 letter word that has tormented me for several years now “story”! The whole, your videos regardless of the quality of your video will do well if you have a great story. You will succeed at being a creator if you just learn to tell a great story. Story, story, story – ugh. To be honest, I feel as if I have no story to share, no skills to tell one even if I had one and well, there is that. The where to even start. I mean really, creating a video is not like starting a book. You cannot just simply hit the record button and say, “Once upon a time…” I mean, that would be absurd right? My guess is that company whose name starts with a “d” probably has that trademarked or something anyways. So what then? Where does my rebooted, repivoted, re-re start then? How about…

“Once upon a time…” a creator decided to begin again, but in the newest of ways.
