This video applies to me and just wanted to thank Myles because it is helpful. So, thank you Myles for making this video. I'm a new vlogger, check out my videos please everyone :)

[halo3gd]

Very insightful and inspiring. Thank you.

[Williesayshi]

Hey guys. I would appreciate it if you'd come and check out my channel. I know I still need to improve on a lot of things but if you could come and give me some feedback, it would honestly make things easier. Thanks a lot! :)

[MaverickGear]

Thanks for the vid, I'm starting a vlog and I already have two videos (the third is a filler since i couldn't think of a subject for a vlog) I still have a few issues though such as "how to over come feeling uncomfortable when talking to the camera for a vlog with every one in the house awake." and other things like that. if you can help cool, like the vids looks like i'm gonna sub

[thekcor]

Me and you could be very good friends.

[FoundInSA]

Made a video response :) donno if I'm a bit late though.. oh well. Great video =) Thumbs up

[xJAD3N]

If anyone wants to, they can see me derp and look constipated in front of a camera on my channel. Love advice from a kid... who knew?

[musiciskl1]

I love these videos, thanks for all the help :D

[96theweirdone]

Confidence is one thing for me. But the other is what to talk about?! I have no clue what to talk about.. Lol

[30inventionman]

CARROT HEAD

[neveroddoreven94]

Is your roof wobbly? O.o

[JointHypermobility]

inspirational stuff :-) gonna go and try and make my vlog now! thank you :-)

[growler666ish]

I ALSO watched Myles Dyer confidence issues earlier today and took his tips and inspiration to make a vlog myself. Ive not done one before and so took this opportunity to talk about a skydive that i am doing. it gave me a topic to talk about (another one of his great tips-keep it simple!) I would love to thank you personally for your tips ('Like' this comment if you agree!! - I visited earlier & didnt leave a comment, my bad! Myles... never give up on persuading others to voice their opinion

[MyVlogys]

aw... I love you, this really helped a lot! Thanks :) !!!

[KirbyDreamWorld]

* Subscribe!*

I can really understand with what you have to say and I am still someone with no a lot of confidence and it's drags me down. However I'm not going into any details, but over the years I have gained confidence and I know I will gain more as the years go on. So here I am, and I'm going to start vloging :)

Thank you for giving and having the confidence in us :)

[rulerofeverything001]

I'd be your girlfriend :D

[mariekatetaylor2011]

okay just sarted watching your videos but really good and really good tips as i only just sarted vloging x

[QueenOfTheAubergines]

I love this video :)

I kinda need advice, and I think you or your followers are the sort of people who could help (sorry if this isn't the right place to ask, but I didn't know what else to do)

I'm 13, just started vlogging. My parents know, but they want to watch my videos, and have seen a couple. I have an odd relationship with them- I hate talking about anything personal with them, and my videos tend to be too personal for me to want them to see. How do I get them to not watch?

Thanks

[AlsArchives]

@QueenOfTheAubergines too late for that. Would have been better if they did not have the Youtube account.

[Emilysvlogz]

thanks for the great advice. ive been vlogging for some months and my problem was that i didnt like the way i looked and i didnt like the sound of my own voice. but im doing it anyway. and im gonna keep vlogging. :)

[rawuneditedvideos]

Myles your a champ mate, a rarity here on YouTube. I've been visiting YT for five years now and I could honestly say this has been one of the best videos I've seen here! Cheers for some descent material! :-) Dejan

[buscuitninja]

Hey man thnx for givin me the confodence to do ma vlog check it out feed bk wud be great thank allot :D

[kikaching888]

Hi Blade376! You gave me the confidence to put out my first blog!

Thanks

[SarahMaeTea]

Myles you were the reason I made my first vlog, and I always come back to this video when my confidence is low, which it is right now, so thank you.

[Alishaisatimelord]

thank you so much

[conneldadog]

you are so helpful thank you!!!

[Supergirl3663]

I just want to thank you Myles(: My friends and I have been thinking about starting a Vlog for a while now and I really havent had the best Self Confidence either but your words really got to me and I really appreciate that...Thanks(:

[Jo3Vlog]

You Should Tour Europe That Would Be Awesome

[Jul23ianS]

Thanks so much....... u really helped :)

[Cookiecan113]

Thanks for this,I have some confidence issues and was struggling to come up with an "introduction" video. So thanks for the help mate :)

[westwoodxo]

@Blade376 I'm sorry I can't even really remember what I said haha, but probably something along the lines of liking your old videos best? Looking back I probably shouldn't have even said it because you're probably a bit different to how you were 4 years ago or whatever :L I liek that you're uploading videos again anyway! :) x

[MrKencoCoffey]

Yeah I have weird confidence issue, I hate talking to an audience or a group of people. I've only just started out and I do feel rather confident and happy doing these videos as well.

[jordan88erickson]

Hey, I think your video would be better if you used more light and wouldn't go on and on about things, like it's hard to stay focused on what you're talking about.

Just trying to contribute although I realize it might not be easy.

Thinking about starting vloging soon.

Good topic though! :)

[WolfLAF]

hah, one of my pet peeves, someone trying to or making me feel like i should change myself into something im not.. i never want to do that. its also one my pet peeves of people acting fake around me

[MidKing38]

Guys i found the way how to do that! its uploaden a hour ago! OMG. ---> /watch?v=RNNwVfGd4mw

[marrockine]

all that therapy-like titles about vlogging makes me sick... but you are absolutely right! never thought of it

[Tine251]

You are just an amazing person. Thanks for this video. It looks like you have helped so many people. Maybe I will make a vlog :)

[AlyM254LOVE]

thank you sooo much! this video actually helped my confidence(:

[xCheezeVLOG]

Do you still want people to post video responses mate?

If I am to make a video introducing myself I may aswell post it for you :-)

-Danny

[FezzesRCoolio]

@xCheezeVLOG hey i done the same, the video might be almost 4 years old but it hasnt lost its meaning

[xCheezeVLOG]

@FezzesRCoolio I know right! It be so much easier posting it to someone

[smudimudi]

You rock! And you look really cute with all that hair as well.. maybe you should take the hat off next video? It's obvious you've learned a lot so far in life. Keep doing what you do because I'm sure you're a great inspiration to many!

[ClydeCedricLCuerdo]

ohh, thanks i really feel great now, i am making my first vlog, but i thought that i looked bad on cam, and i hated my voice good to know that some people also have these kinds of insecurities, i will be posting my vid soon, but thanks it really meant alot! thanks again!

[TheVanillamomma]

Very inspirational talk even many years later. Brave of you to be so open. Thanks.

[MarcoBandidos]

you have inspired me man thanks, i need some confidence because i am camera shy and i really would like to start vlogging

[PlanetAldridge]

I dont know what a talk about in a VLOG some one help

Btw... I LOVE THIS GUY ;)

[westwoodxo]

I wish you would go back to videos like this! ): x

[Blade376]

@westwoodxo Please be more specific - and perhaps I will =]

[carapar114]

@Blade376 he probly means more tutorials, but hey, I really don`t know

[AaronMenzies1]

@Blade376 love your vid i have just started to vloog thxs

[Neko7Kyuh]

@BiggxG You probably aren't tired in the morning. Like all of us, none of us wanna talk when we're tired, we just wanna rest... but yeah that sounds exactly like me [; so maybe

[MisterJohnPadge]

WOW. I hope you realise how good you are. Thanks for the video. Plain Tops! :) And trust me more people love you out here in the internet then hate you !!

[CocoMonkeyTV]

omg Miles is my all time favourite vlogger!

[NuttageProductions]

@BiggxG omg same dude!! first period i feel awkward where as the last period, im like high ;)

[blank882]

Well done on putting the hated aside and trying to help others.

Well done.

[6StringBassist]

Hey man,

Really enjoyed this vid. Going to start a YouTube channel soon and this has helped a great deal. Keep up the wicked vlogs!

[JacksThirdNipple]

Woo! Plain Lazy shirt! I own a different one to that but still.. never seen anyone else wearing one.

[TerrybleToolVlogger]

Your pretty awesome mate (Y) - truely inspiring, just started off vlogging, and yeah its kinda weird talking to a camera - but im getting there :) (i think) lol

[valespirit]

totally inspiring :) i starded a vlog last week and after watching you suddenly most of my confident issues are going way. i'm thinking about recording a 2nd vid right now. Thank you so much

[Asweezy411]

I am half way through the vid, and bro, this video is amazing. You are an incredible person.

[jphillips353]

All I have to say = Thank you, Myles.

This is a fantastic video.

Genuinly inspiring.

[MothsToLight]

Thanks so much for this Myles! You've inspired me to start vlogging. :)

Any feedback from people on what they think would mean the world to me. Thanks :D

[AleRondro796]

First of all, I like your accent dude, it's awesome haha.

Anyway, I like the way you think man. It's awesome to know that your trying to get people to gain their confidence up and step up and share their ideas. And you actually opened up a bit (your depression stuff and everything) which takes A LOT of confidence to do (in my opinion)

Keep doing what you do man.

[raeesa15]

Kay. i just made my first Vlog, and its AWKWARD. :(

[LightBulbCup]

i would do a video responses but case im wellll under youtube age and stuff im not really allowed to ;/

[TodOneill]

Damn good video, Today i was planning on starting a blog and couldnt figure out what to do or say, u should have way more views just for the content in this, i will hopefully have a video response by the end of the day, A+ to you sir!

[biteandspit]

great video

[KevinTVLive]

dude u look like shawn white

[BrandorVideos]

my main problem would be my family, other people i know wouldnt be really a problem but if my family ever saw me they probably wouldnt like the way i act. i'm a completely different person when im not around family, but with family other than people around my age im quiet and kinda boring because i dont want to embarass my family. they are pretty judgemental people

[Cookiecan113]

thanks for this mate. I've had alot of confidence issues and insecurities myself. I going to try to Vlog soon to get my confidence higher.

Sorry to hear about all the bad stuff you have been though. But hey, if it matters, you've found someone else who cares :)

[lukeloveslinda]

check out my videos guys and add me as a friend or sub me

[PointBaron]

Well.... I have no self confidence, and I still make videos. I have nothing else better to do in life, except look at failure.

[JokersGoil]

Everything you talked about are things that held me back from starting a blog. But I have to thank you, because you put a lot of my worries to rest.

Thinking about starting a blog is scary, but thanks to you, I'm going to give it a try.

[thethespian1010]

OMFG I FRIKIN LOVE YOUR ACCENT!

[2014weasel]

dude thank you....

[maytal124]

I think it's awesome that you opened up to that extent on the internet thank you for sharing

[jodeemareegreen2]

I like this guy!

[Kiara0405]

What Myles says is true and it works. I never had much confidence but I started vlogging and in only a few months I have become so much hapy and I have really surprised people at school even the teachers, because I am always quiet at school and then I make something like that and it shocked people and hopefully made them realise you truely can't tell what someone is like just by how they appear. You must get to know them and give them a chance. I am happy now and it is because of Myles Thank you

[ABO7ify]

funky hat, im trying to start vlogging but its quite hard, i might try and do a vlog now , thanks for the tips

[sophie24seven]

@daisychainpeace i agree completely, i find myself not caring about strangers but being afraid of people i know saying things or thinking it's stupid, even though in reality they'd probably think it was cool.

[XgamesOrBust]

I'm thinking about starting a vlog but I don't want to make vlogs if no one or hardly anyone watches them, what should I do to get my videos around?

[nintendolad]

@XgamesOrBust The obvious solution is to comment on other's videos saying "I'm a new vlogger, please watch my videos", but this tends to annoy people, it annoys me. Another idea is to post your videos as responses to other videos, that way more people will see your videos. Good luck and let me know how things go.

[sonyvegasify]

The only thing that concerns me is the amount of fowl mouthing that goes on in this community.... It actually makes me feel some what frightened of what people are going to say about me...

[Tayoe]

Dude this video really spoke to me. Ur an inspiration man gd job!!

[renzey100]

Guys I'm 11 should I start vlogging yet

[FuryChord]

@renzey100 graduate first. focus on your studies

[ABO7ify]

@renzey100 go for it, im trying to start vlogging, im 13 , i dont think your age really matters, soo if u want to then u shud.. im gunna sub to ur channel

[weedinosaur]

Like your video and honesty.

i'm trying to start a vlog but am struggling.

[weedinosaur]

really like your video. and your honesty.

i'm trying to start vlogging but am finding it hard.

[masterwang69]

[Tropyy]

subscribed. you are awesome myles!

[ghostboy07]

wow this is posted 3 years ago and its still GOOD. im subscribing :)

[TheAdventuresofTime]

@MrMoondox Thanks! But I still can't handle the fact that my vlogs are horrible compared to professional ones...like this one!

I can't find any videos by that Youtuber on confidence.

[anney0207]

damn!!! I wish i could meet more ppl like u , the only ppl round me r simple-minded pricks :)

[JavezX]

*subscribe* you my friend are AWESOME!

[Ognomik]

Thumbs up if you hate the way youtube has cut out the sides of the video and replaced the fullscreen with black sidebars

[bessybaby84]

I'm getting a bit more used to seeing/hearing myself on camera now but my lack of editing lets me down a little. I love this guys videos as alot of his experiences are similar to mine and i think if he can overcome his issues I can!! Plus he is always himself and doesnt try to act like a big shot like certain others...

[AnarchicalSociety]

@bessybaby84 If your not very happy with your editing I suggest Imovie 09. It's very simple. I use it :)

[bessybaby84]

@AnarchicalSociety The problem I have is I can only seem to record from my built in cam through youtube (or facebook) so have to get it all right in one take! I cant seem to access the cam any other way....

[gingeeerx]

do you watch all your video responses? :P ^^

[AButterflyDreams]

You're awesome! And your hair is wicked hot!! I just got a physical description for one of my characters in my book! Do you mind if he looks like you?? lol

[CisforChaanaa]

Thank you Miles, this video helped me to take the first step!

I made my first vlog!

Thanks mate :)

[TimmayBlack]

Wow, i filmed my first vlog right after i watched this. I've been wanting to do if for awhile now but I just never had the confidence. right after i filmed this i walked out of my room and i felt so accomplished. It felt great i felt almost like i was comfortable with me

[Hanatbh]

I'll definitely do a video response this weekend :)

you're a really genuine, nice person.

[KrownKrash]

dude you have given me more confidence. I really like to help people and I like to talk about life, i want people to relate. I mean theres hundreds of people who are like why this, why that?? well I want to to help and talk about what ever. Vloging seems like its a lot of fun and I think its good to express and talk about anything. I'm gonna do my first video one of these days. =)

[IamSeamus1]

Hey guys I've started a series of vlogging with my own funny take on things. Please check me out and thanks to Myles especially!

[Zcas07]

Fantastic video man. I see vlogs all the time and never really had the gull to do it. I watched this and it helped me out.

[EzechielCookieBear]

you inspires me to vlog, but wait, i dont have cam recorder ==||

[SuperTemp100wpm]

You are really awesome, Myles. And congrats on raising so much during StickAID this year!!!

[xXbloodroseofdoomXx]

I just wanted to say that watched ur video on how to vlog and the one on confidence and it has really made me think about what I like, what my passion is in life, etc. etc. etc. Because yes I do have confidence issues, like being in front of a camera(very hard.)

I already have plans to get a video camera (just have to save some money) and hopefully I will post my first video soon. Ciao!

Kate Bryner

[Viceroy002]

Just posted my first vlog after viewing this, thank you so much!

[DOCTORxxWHOxxFAN]

Thank you :)

[TheAdventuresofTime]

I have a habit of deleting my vlog after a day or two because I really can't stand my voice!!

Does anybody have any advice to overcome this issue?

[littlemisscapricious]

you're an awesome dude.. jus in general, i jus felt tht needed to be said :D

[MorganGamerPoet]

This definitely helped me out.

Thanks so much!

[daisychainpeace]

i don't have a problem with people watching me that i don't know... just people i know and have to see everyday who would laugh at me :[

[aj083109]

@daisychainpeace thats exactly how i feel? i want to start my vlogs but thats one thing thats holding me back >.<

[superstar5565]

@daisychainpeace yeh .... lik at school

[daisychainpeace]

@superstar5565 exactly..

[Southfield1000]

@daisychainpeace Agreed

[herecomesmelony]

@daisychainpeace exactly the same as me

but i got advice make a new channel dont tell any of the poeple you know about it then after a while it will get noticed.

then tthe poepel that you know  will recoognise you but if they make fun of u just say that you have fun doing it

[Ognomik]

@daisychainpeace who knows they my find your videos cool

[IIproductionsII]

@daisychainpeace Don't worry! that's the exact same thing that I used to worry about, but instead I just made a video, people at my school saw it. My friends thought it was cool, and some kids who I didn't like laughed at it. But what the hell? who gives a crap if people laugh at you, you don't see them up here trying to make videos do you? don't let the crowd rule your life, be differant make videos, people will eventualy admire you and who knows, you might just end up ruling the crowd.

[AndrewSmithTV1]

@daisychainpeace that's the reason i am a bit afraid, my best friend laughs and makes not nice comments on them and u should hear my sister!

[BadAlice11]

@daisychainpeace Thats exactly how i feel :/

[Benjy3634]

@daisychainpeace Dude, make a new channel and don't tell anybody you know about it. Chances of them finding is slim unless you get like really popular, and then why should they laugh at you?

[AThousandSummers]

@daisychainpeace That is exactly my problem!

[21LondonCalling]

@daisychainpeace Oh totally! I feel the same way. I really want to start a vlog but the idea of my family watching the videos freaks me out a bit.

[TheFrenchyFry]

from the heart man, that was deep, helped, cheers

[alexandrosee]

I've posted my response :P

[louisenoisywords]

thanx for the tips! But well my biggest problem isn't really my "ordinairy" confidence, it's my "english-confidence"... As soon I start speaking english I get super shy and forget everything I know hahah, It's really annoying because I really want to vlog. I mean yeah I could vlog in swedish, but I don't want to do that, because there is like no "audience", it's not so big in sweden... :(

[StephanieRoze]

i actually have a channel on justin(dot)tv and i have almost 2,000 followers (subscribers) and its live streaming, and i sit and talk on there. sometimes i have up to 300 people watching me at one time. but ive been thinking about vlogging lately, i just dunno wut the hell id talk about lol.

[stevenrodriquez90]

Brilliant! I am having the confidence issues myself.

[kitface09]

thank you for being so open.. thank you for posting this video .... i dont know u .. this is the first of the first video of yours that i see..

but it inspires me .. i have been fascinated on vlogiing for a while .. but im way to shy .. i mean i dont care if a bunch of people see me rambing nonesense .. but what if someone i know sees it ? i dont know what i would do ..thank you for posting this because i need confidence .. i really do .. im really really shy ..i should do it

[deedeeffrz]

@kitface09 I feel exactly the same as you, i'm worried that somebody from school would see it and laugh and me. I think we need to just go for it and ignore any hate we get. x

[BybyMicroManiac]

you are the best dude<3 keep on filming:)

[PopCompound]

I love your accent! :D

[ell0ell067]

i really want to vlog but im quite young and kinda have a high voice, what do i do?

[parthkohli99]

@ell0ell067 hey man I am in Grade 6 and I am in India, still I have a vlog and that's just because of this man! Chill up and do check my vlog

[craigh937]

[kaybee624]

stoopid things

[xxxLiLfAiRyGiRlxxx]

[madmatt9797]

[Jgirl7991]

I love listening to you. I'd love to be your friend. :)

[eJayyz]

Dude, this video helped me so much, i am going to do a video reasponse to this video answering your 5 questions, and it should be up soon.

[MEnnis91191]

you're a great guy and you've got a lot going for you. keep vlogging because you're great at it, and it seems to be reaching a lot of people. never think less of yourself. I'm gettin my confidence up lately and things have been going great. i might do a response too. who knows? ^.^

[MEnnis91191]

@MEnnis91191 by the way i love your hair, don't wear a hat.

[xSummerNighttx]

I'd do this... but I'm still scared of hate comments.

I've got some before, and it made me depressed.. for a short period of time. I was still pretty sad though.

[tfit1]

Thank you. Thank you very much.

[Purav3]

@KickerChannel lol I'm worried about the same thing, I spose you could vlog when they are out

[JackasaurusRexTV]

i really dont like how i sound and listning to this made me realise it dosent matter! :)

thanks Myles

[Purav3]

@JackasaurusRexTV Same here, he's a good inspiration

[CarolynRCTV]

you sound JUST like me when you talk about how you feel. Ive called my friends so many times crying and theyre amazed that i feel like that. well its just a front, no?

[evangotrock]

since when do we have to watch a comercial before a video in youtube??! WTF

[eJayyz]
