 As with Tefillin and other things, its very advisable to have a sort of journal, where you make a graph, with date and a colume for things like Tefillin, prayer, or anything else you want and after you do it daily you just check it off. Every day you do it, you make a check for yourself (this applies not only to Tefillin, but for anything that one is trying to do daily and accomplish, eahc person on his level). Also do more then one thing, so that you would allways have that book inmind, and when for example you check for another mitzva, if G-d forbid you gorgot Tefillin, if its before sundown you just quickly put it on and do the Mitzva.

Usually I don't just do the Shema either:

1.I do the opening prayer of Torah Knowledge
2. The blessings
3. Barukh Sheemar
4. Ashrei
5. Yishibakh sheemkha malkeynu
6. Avat raba avtanu
7. Shema
8. Mi khamokha
9. Amida
10. Aleinu

takes between 15-20 minutes. And after awhile, you kind of memorize it..so as you say one word, you automatically know the next 10 words.

it is very impressive that you do that.

reminds me of one of seinfeld`s productivity tip(I read on lifehacker site). He said that when working on something, put a tick on each day of the calendar that you work on it.  And don`t break the chain!

Written Torah - the parts related to noachides. 

But as Tzvi said, this is a forum with jews and gentiles....

But in the case of a video of you or your friend putting on teffilin, that is of  little or  no  use to jews.  If a Jew did not learn to put on teffilin, or never learnt,  he wouldn`t learn from your video.  If there was a jew that really didn`t know, then it would warrant a clearer video, or better, a proper "hands on" teacher.

I think the video might encourage those who know how to put it on to do it. OR those who do it regularly to love it more.
