Have you ever watched Won’t You Be My Neighbor? The documentary about Mister Rogers.

As a kid I loved that show. But I also loved this documentary.?

I also loved its unexpected lessons about video and television!

When Mister Rogers said “television is community,” I thought yes, that’s it! I’m always saying that sharing your message is a public service. And it truly is.?

Think about all the children’s lives (mine included) that were changed because Mister Rogers spoke directly to them about things they were curious about.?

And you can do the same thing! You can create your own community and serve the people in it right now. Through video!

Don’t feel embarrassed (like Daniel the tiger) if you didn’t do anything yet.?

Here’s a list of what to do to start making videos to build your online community.

1. Make a list of all the videos you’d like to do. (Bonus points if you make a spreadsheet!)?
2. Look at that list and circle the ones that are unique to you. Meaning, which ones can you give your own special spin so it’s not generic.?
3. Pick one of those videos.?
4. Write out a few notes about what you’d like to say.
5. Practice.
6. Record!
7. Repeat!?

It can be scary to get started. But it’s important to remember and go back to why you’re doing this in the first place.?

It’s to help people! People can’t be helped if you don’t share what you know.?

Something else that Mr. Rogers said that resonated with me is this quote:?

?“When I was a boy and I would see scary things in the news, my mother would say to me, ‘Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping.’”
