33 years old – seems about right

New York Public Library #5Today I am turning 33, glad to say relaxed and happy. I am in my house on Island of Brac, making final preparations for the olive picking due probably on Wednesday. The weather is great for this time of the year, and I spent whole day yesterday swimming in the sea.

Ther are some more good things about this year:

When I look ahead I see a year full of interesting things. My startups will either work or not and there are so many things I'd like to dedicate my energy to. Balancing the work with life, need for travel and sports will be  a delicate challenge.

    Sounds like you had a great birthday Vladimir. I want to thank you for all the help you've provided me through your blog. I've received so many great ideas and tips from you I bought your book and encourage others to do so. It's a wealth of knowledge presented in a fashion that those of us who do not consider ourselves programmers can perform some very cool stuff with WordPress. Thank you again and the very best wishes to you.

    Hello Vladimir,

    Many Many Happy Returns of The Day!

    Going by your achievements at this age, my jaws just hit the floor

    You must write an ebook on selfmanagement and discipline - two traits that help one reach the pinnacle of success at an early age. And, trust me, I cant wait to know your thoughts.

    God Bless You

    Lets make the world a better place!

    Happy Birthday Vladimir! I hope the year lets you soar high and to find the right balance. I truly enjoy reading your blog, the mix of technical and personal bits make you personable and easy to learn from. Wishing the best of everything to you!

      Thanks for the encouragement Karen. I still think this mix of technical/personal has to be particularly annoying and terribly boring for anyone subscribing.

    Happy Birthday. I am about to turn 60...so 33 sounds real good. I enjoy looking at your code.. I am an old programmer from the days when unix was system III. Keep the life balance... I always found it hard.
    Choose only the most important undertakings...and let the rest go. :)

      You just didnt tell the catch - how you know what is important ;)

    Happy Birthday, Vladimir. Wishing you all the best. Yes, you do not know me since I have never commented on this blog before (or any other blog for that matter) but over the past few months since I ran across your blog, I have been faithfully reading up on your blog. Great job. Thanks for all your painstaking effort to help people like me who know nothing about internet but yearning to learn. God bless. Maybe one day I can have some cold PAN beer too as Gordon suggested (even though I have no idea what a PAN beer is or what its going to taste like. But heck, who cares.) Some of us will taste it just for you. Once again, happy Birthday. Go enjoy yourself. Peace.

    Well then, happy birthday Vladimir! I am glad you are having a good e-life as well as a nice offline one. As far as the years go, my belief is that one is as young (or as old) as he feels. It is all in the mind and when you focus on all the good things in your life it's always great!

    Quite a few of your blog posts have really helped me in starting my own little blog after I launched my website. Maybe some summer I end up on Brac and we can meet for a nice cold PAN beer or whatever you drink down there ;) Thank you and keep the posts coming!
