00:00:00.800Greetings, my esteemed Laddingtons. This is my traditional birthday video. I am turning 33 millennia, so you can refer to me as the Venerable Ancient, for such is my knowledge and wisdom.
00:00:15.460So I thought to give an update on a few things, and I thought to mention something that is related to birthdays and the like.
00:00:22.740So I can honestly say the following, that I do feel better now than I did at 23. I do feel healthier, more energy, I feel better in basically every way.
00:00:34.680Now you ask, how can this be? How can you feel more youthful when you are a decade older, or several millennia older in my case, since I am an immortal elf?
00:00:45.540But that's another topic. So basically, I will repeat myself. I have to repeat myself, because certain things are so important that I need to mention it in different contexts.
00:00:57.660So you can ask me, how do I stay this healthy? How do I feel as youthful, as good in my mind and body?
00:01:05.700Or even better, to be perfectly honest, I am much, much sharper now than I was at 23.
00:01:12.600Now, of course, the male brain isn't fully developed at 23, so that might have something to do with it.
00:01:20.720So you ask, how is this possible? How can I feel this much better, despite me being a decade older?
00:01:28.400It's to do with habits. I've said it before, I'll say it again, habits.
00:01:33.060And it takes quite a bit of time for you to develop these habits, to find out which habits are good for you.
00:01:40.260Now, of course, I've made it my mission on this particular channel, and on other social media, including my podcast, to give some advice on how you can incorporate good habits in your life.
00:01:51.560So if you're looking for good advice from whomever, ask, okay, what sort of good habits can I implement in my everyday life?
00:01:59.160So I say to you, go to the gym, start meditating 10 minutes each day, read every day.
00:02:05.960Those are good habits that will help you to be a better person, basically.
00:02:10.420So that is the advice you're looking for, concrete, solid routines, habits that you can implement in your life.
00:02:18.580Then, of course, there are plenty of other, you know, insights that can be interesting.
00:02:23.780But if you're looking at optimizing your health, always look at what sort of habits you can implement.
00:02:30.140Now, that being said, I have talked about many of these habits before.
00:02:35.540I will show some, and I will make some more tutorials on this fine channel.
00:02:40.080So two meditation tutorials are coming up, and then I have another wild hunt challenge in coming, which has to do with, again, more habits pertaining to sleep and meditation and training and reading.
00:02:54.220So nothing out of the ordinary, but I know these videos are always appreciated.
00:02:59.420Now, on to the plans for the coming months.
00:03:03.140So I do have, as you all know, hopefully, I do have the greatest podcast where I do deep dives into various topics, and I will continue with that podcast.
00:03:24.140I will start a second podcast, and those episodes will be posted for the public on YouTube and Odyssey and on a few audio platforms as well.
00:03:34.240I will update you all when it happens, where you can find them.
00:03:37.980So those episodes will basically be me having conversations with others.
00:03:43.420Because there is something to keep in mind that making a podcast episode of me, you know, doing a deep dive into a particular topic, it takes a lot of time and effort.
00:03:53.440So those I will keep separate from the conversations, which are, you know, a conversation is always easy to have.
00:04:00.080It's always easy to make, you know, an interview with someone.
00:04:05.100So that particular podcast, which I have yet to name, I will see Illuminating Conversations, perhaps it will be called.
00:04:26.600So, yeah, more content, basically more content for you, my loyal supporters.
00:04:32.480Then I will probably not write as many book reviews during the autumn, because I will use the momentum I've built up.
00:04:40.260As I mentioned in a recent video, that you build up a momentum that you can use for good things.
00:04:47.420So the momentum I've built with the book reviews, I will use that momentum to write my second book, which will be out next year.
00:04:55.800And it will be absolutely mandatory reading, just as Dauntless is.
00:04:59.560So, fewer book reviews, but more videos and audio, at least.
00:05:04.420So that is something you can hopefully look forward to.
00:05:07.660And, yeah, as I said, I have a good few videos planned for this channel, in addition to the interviews.
00:05:13.520And I do have a few interesting guests lined up, so that will be nice for me to present to you.
00:05:21.880Now, on a last note, if you have been following my work for the last two years, I have mentioned a few times that there will come a time where I will make a move, so to speak.
00:05:32.260First, I said that would be when I'm around 60, but due to the encouragement of a good and trusted friend, I have decreased the time span, so I will be 50 when that move will be made, so I will set the pace even higher.
00:05:48.380So, yeah, that is an update in regard to that.
