In a world where video content is king, getting in front of the camera can feel intimidating. Whether you're building a personal brand, growing your business, or just sharing your story, being authentic on video is crucial. But how do you show up as your truest self and communicate with clarity? The secret often lies in one simple thing: knowing your values.
Values as Your North Star
Your values are the core beliefs that drive everything you do. They shape your decisions, your relationships, and yes—how you show up on video. When you're clear on your values, it gives you direction and confidence. You're no longer second-guessing what to say or how to say it. Instead, you're rooted in what matters most to you.
For example, if one of your core values is authenticity, that will naturally guide how you present yourself on camera. You’ll be less concerned about saying the "right" thing and more focused on showing up as your true self. If your value is service, you'll focus on how your message helps others, making it easier to connect with your audience in a meaningful way.
Communicating with Confidence
When you're unclear about your values, it shows. You might come across as unsure, disconnected, or rehearsed. But when your values are aligned with your message, your communication flows effortlessly. You speak with conviction, and that confidence is contagious. People are drawn to those who know what they stand for.
Consider the videos you’ve seen that left a lasting impression. Chances are, those individuals were crystal clear on their purpose and values, and it made their content not only engaging but impactful.
Values Keep You Consistent
Knowing your values also helps with consistency. Whether you're speaking to potential clients or addressing a larger audience, consistency builds trust. When your values guide your video messaging, you create a cohesive brand that people can count on. Your message becomes more than words; it becomes a reflection of who you are and what you believe in.
How to Get Clear on Your Values
So, how do you tap into your values? Start by asking yourself a few questions:
1. What motivates me to do what I do?
2. What qualities do I admire in others?
3. What principles am I unwilling to compromise on?
Once you've identified your core values, practice incorporating them into your video messaging. You'll not only find it easier to speak, but your audience will connect with you on a deeper level.
Final Thoughts
At the end of the day, people connect with people, not brands or scripts. By knowing your values, you ensure that every video you create is an authentic reflection of who you are and what you stand for. This clarity will not only help you deliver your message with confidence, but it will also help you build lasting connections with your audience.
If you want to show up clearly, confidently, and authentically on video—start with knowing your values.
