Starting a health journey
The battle with me for a healthier, better me
Created on 10 August 2025.
Embarking on this kind of journey is simultaneously exciting and horrifying.
My history with fitness, health, weights, and all that is not great. Many attempts and just as many setbacks.
But now I am approaching things a little bit different.
All that trial and error from the past? I can use it as knowledge. I can learn from it.
So what am I doing differently now?
It's simple: Smaller steps and higher accountability!
The higher accountability part is obvious: Make it public. And boy, public it is.
I didn't call my friends and family to tell them about my crazy idea. Nope. I didn't call anybody.
I just created a new.... YouTube channel!
I've posted something there. And I'll continue to post.
If that doesn't make me accountable... I don't know what will :) And I'm learning and experimenting a bit more with video creation, editing and all that.
And my friends and family still don't know much because I haven't shared the channel yet.
What about the other part... the small steps part. Well, that is and will continue to be a work in progress. I haven't decided or defined anything clear yet. I will be exploring and experimenting until I find something that makes sense.
P.S. You can find me on YouTube here: @VladiVsVladi
Keep it mind that this time, I'm not speaking in English.
