Stop “Making Time” for Content: Film What You’re Already Doing Instead

Stop Making Time to Create Content

Film what you’re already doing instead. 🤯

One of the biggest lies creators believe is:

“I need to set aside hours to film content.”

You don’t.

Today’s B-roll clips?

They were filmed throughout my normal workday.

I captured 10 different clips.

Without trying that hard.

It took maybe two minutes total.

And now I have a bank of content I can use for Reels, stories, and future posts.

 

The Secret Is Capturing, Not Creating

There’s a difference.

Creating feels heavy.
Capturing feels natural.

Instead of scheduling a “content day,” start recording:

• Opening your laptop
• Pouring coffee
• Setting up your workspace
• Walking into your office
• Answering emails
• Reviewing client strategy
• Brainstorming content
• Flipping through your planner

You are already doing these things.

You just are not documenting them.

 

Why This Works So Well

B-roll makes your content:

More dynamic
More relatable
More professional
More engaging

Movement boosts retention.
Retention boosts reach.
Reach boosts results.

And when your visuals feel intentional, your content feels elevated.

 

Build a Content Library in Minutes

Imagine doing this daily for a week.

You would have:

50+ clips
Multiple Reel options
Story filler
Evergreen visual assets

All without blocking off extra time.

This is how you make content sustainable.

Not by doing more.
But by using what you’re already doing.
