CONTENT REQUIREMENTS

For video, look at the camera and say the following.

All entries (audio only and video) must include these elements in any order:

"My name is..."
  • State at least your first name--does not need to be your real name*.
  • If you are recording a group, state the name of the group.

    *If you would like on screen credit with your full name, position, company, etc., you must meet eligibility requirements.
  • "and I'm from..."
  • State your city, state, and/or country--does not need to be your real location.
  • "I'm going to buy..."
  • Reference to the Know for Yourself DVD, such as: "it," "the DVD," "the Know For Yourself DVD," or "Know For Yourself"
  • "for my..."
  • Reference to the recipient of your gift(s), such as "friend, Sally," "co-worker, Bob," "parents," etc.
  • "who is..."
  • Describe your recipient in as much detail as possible, such as "who really wants to own his own business but is afraid to leave the security of his job," "who wants to be an actor, but doesn't have enough self confidence," "who really cares about helping people succeed," etc.
  • "because..."
  • Insert facts about the DVD that make it a good match for this person, such as "it will help him build his self-confidence," "I think they will be inspired by all the stories," "it will make her feel good inside." See About "Know For Yourself" for more information on this.
  • "Who are you going to buy it for?"
  • All entries must end with this phrase.


  • Additional notes about content:
    • Any entries missing the basic content above will be disqualified. See Conditions of Entry for more details.
    • Blooper reels are encouraged. No need to edit out mistakes as long as your entry falls within the 5 minute time limit. (See below for things you might want to edit out, however.)
