This is an I-Heart podcast.

0:02.6

Guaranteed Human.

0:05.1

It's time to go around the room with Elvis Duran in the Morning Show.

0:10.2

What's on your mind today?

0:11.4

Okay, I'm going to bring a positive to people like me who have a dog but don't have a yard.

0:16.4

I live in an apartment.

0:17.5

So anytime I take my dog out to pee, I can't just like open a door.

0:20.7

I have to actually

0:21.7

go out with her, which is really annoying for me and people like me. But the positive thing is I get to

0:28.5

take her to new spots basically any time I want because I'm already outside. So yesterday, my husband

0:34.1

and I are walking the dog and she had a lot of extra energy. So my husband said, hey, let's just go to the beach that's nearby and take her. And if I didn't have the, quote, opportunity to walk her every time I needed to take her out, I don't think I would take her to see as many cool things. So if you're like me and you complain that you can't just let your dog out, there's a lot of good life for your dog because of your

0:54.6

situation. Absolutely. They can sniff new smells. That's important. I'd be lazy otherwise. I really

1:00.5

would be. So this is a good thing. See, it's good having a dog. That's reason number 453 why you should

1:06.4

have it all. Head it to the list. Gandhi, what's up with you today? All right, earlier today,

1:10.4

we were talking about age and everything that goes along with your brain and how, you know, a lot of people are fighting, getting older, and I understand that. But I read something about reframing the way that you look at age. It's so easy to look at yourself when you're 35 and think, man, I used to be 20. This is crazy. I'm so old. But if you look at yourself from the standpoint that you're 70, looking back on yourself at 35, what is ahead of you in your

1:33.2

life? How can you do things differently? What would you do to make your young self and your older self

1:37.8

proud? You still have so much space in there. So stop just writing yourself off because of

1:42.3

whatever age you are and look at it from the perspective of 20 years down the road looking back. Very interesting you said that. You know, we were talking earlier off air about this book that you and I are reading Gandhi. Yeah. It's called Outlive. Is that the name of it? Yep. And one of the thoughts in here is that, look, we're asked these questions all the time. Like what your 10 year plan what your 20 year plan what do you see you doing in 15 20 25 30 years it's so

2:08.5

important to visualize what that is otherwise you really don't have a roadmap just to plan ahead

2:14.2

and to stay on the road to try to be be healthier, to try to think about how to

2:18.8

position yourself in this world so you can do those things in 20 or 30 years.

2:23.4

It's very important.
