[00:00:00] Speaker A: Hey. Hey. So it's like early 2026. And do you have a plan for the year? So is it like the napkin? Did you buy the napkin or you didn't do anything? Or did you do something? Or are you gonna hold onto it? Is it beautiful? Is it pretty? Is it awesome? Are you. Have you forgotten already? It is what it is. I'm Bradley Schravineau. It's Thursday. That means I have to record a video today. Why? Because I do daily shorts, weekly videos, monthly newsletters. That's it. So that's how I get a lot of stuff done. That's how I've written 40 books, and I've published more than 5,000 videos onto YouTube. Ready? Here's what we're doing today.
I have had a program called. It's had various names. One, it's been called Year of youf. It still is called Year of youf. And what we're doing is we are going to solidify and clarify your upcoming year.
Now, I've offered this in book format where you kind of write a book, but it's pretty involved, right? And it's gonna take a few hours, if not a few days.
And a buddy of mine, he said, Bradley, I've got five minutes and 20 bucks.
And I'm like, okay. So he has five minutes of input to give me and 20 bucks, and he wants some output. And I said, well, I can't give you a book in 20 minutes, and also, you kind of need to write it. So what if you give me an interview like five minutes long of you recording what you want and how you want your year to give you questions, and then you give me some. Some little bit of a design ideas, and then I'll put together some stuff for you.
So I want to show you.
I know we're looking at my gorgeous desktop here. I want to show you what I created in a few hours for my friend Susan, who's given me permission to share this here.
And I. I made questions here. These are the questions.
Here's some questions. Okay? And then here are the. I think this is the design. Then you get the design. Okay, so there's a design questions, and then I take this stuff and I hand it off to Charlie Holiday, my fashionable, amazing designer, and then let me show you what he made. Because when I. For five minutes and twenty bucks, I said, I can't give you a book, but what else could I give you? What else could I help you sort of clarify your year, get some more clarity on the upcoming year? What if I Could give you something that you could hold in your hand. You could print, maybe even frame, if it were gorgeous enough. And then it would be a guiding light, a north star, right, as something inspirational, motivational for you that you had that you could use during the year. Ready? So here's what we came up with. It's going to be fun. Now, Susan, again, Susan said I could share this stuff. So here is the first thing we create. So remember? So, Susan.
Oh, yeah. So here, this is the transcript of her answers, right? She said I could share that, too. And then this is my recording for Bradley.
Okay, Section one. So she recorded that. I got the transcript, and from her input, I'm going to create some stuff. So number one was this.
So here, this is a postcard. Because this is the first thing we're going to do. We're going to do a postcard. I'll show you what we're going to do. I'm going to tease you. We're going to do a postcard. We're going to do a poster or an infographic poster. Then we're going to do a poem, and then we're going to do a song. Are you ready? Here we go.
That's the postcard. Let me show you. There's another version of it.
I don't want to go too crazy with versions, but here, look at these two.
So remember, I didn't put any input. This is all Susan. So on the left, that's clearly Paris. Although, I don't know, I don't think there's a train that's going on the Seine along the Eiffel Tower. And then she has a quote that I don't know. Did she say that? Did she want that?
Was it created? That that's what she wanted. She has this gorgeous sort of vintage style.
And then over here on the right is more. Is that maybe Italy? Italian coast. It could be French coast. I don't know. And we have. Is that the same. Yeah, I think that's the same quote, different style. Oh, my God. So she said, bradley, I. I want to print this thing out. I want to hold it in my hand. I'm like, I know. I agree. Becca, postcard. Pretty cool, right? Okay, next up. Now, this one I think we struggled a little bit with. I'm going to show you here.
So I like the word treasure map. I think that's where the designers here created this. So here it's a simpler one, and I kind of want it to go from A to B to C to D to ef, right? And this one is sort of. I don't know if it has a real map, like, where it's going from A to B. But she liked it. She's like, oh, I like that. The waves up there and the I and the flow, and then the mountains and the treasure chest. And some of these words are stuff that she had said in her input. Inner content. Super cool, right? And then we have another version of that. Okay, Then this version.
It's this one.
So I like this one, I think, because it has more of the. Like, this could be the flow of your year.
And it's. It's not super clear. Like, there's not a real clear beginning and end. And the arrows kind of go all over the place, but you get the idea. And remember, I shouldn't be publishing this. This is a draft, right? This is me messing around and helping Susan with this poster or treasure map here. And this one is also kind of busy. There's a lot going on. If you look at it, you'll see, Ah, pen and ink and a clock and a postcard. And again, that coastal city.
And then, oh, edge of fear. Watch out for that. Watch out for that. And then, Ooh, like a shining guiding light up there.
And then I see that's doubled. The edge of here is doubled. You got a. Oh, a book with a flag. Like, that's the goal. And super cool. And there's even trusting my intuition over certainty. Choosing courage even when afraid. Whoa. Pretty cool, right? She's like, I want to print this. I want to print it, maybe even frame it. So pretty fun, right?
All right, not. Finally, we got two more.
Next up is this. So I wanted to create a poem. So so far we have a poem postcard and a poster, and now a poem. And this is the poem that was created through the input she gave.
And then this was created by Charlie. Charlie's my chatgpt, in case that wasn't clear.
If you are not into AI doing this stuff, you're not going to like this, because that's who's helping me create this. I put together how to put it together, some ideas about design and some formatting and stuff, like postcard and poster and stuff. And I've got quite a bit of experience with that. And then the input from you or Susan here, and then the.
The final product, right? So here. That's a poem. All right, last step. Ready?
Here we go. This. Okay, this is kind of crazy. You ready?
Here, watch this.
Ready?
I hope you can hear this. I think I turned it on. So we can hear the sound.
[00:07:34] Speaker B: One word I wrote down in the.
[00:07:37] Speaker A: Cold.
[00:07:41] Speaker B: A quiet promise Something bold.
Just a whisper in my soul A steady hand to take control I listened when the map was missing Every step a new beginning.
[00:08:18] Speaker A: Seriously, Bradley, you created a song in an afternoon? We had a co working session together yesterday. That's what we got. So what do you think? Is this fun? Is this. Remember I had. Remember my friend who said five bucks in 20 minutes, would you input?
Five minutes of input, five minutes of answering questions and then 20 bucks, you think that'd be fun? Okay, how about this? I'm going to put this out there.
The first three people who comment that they would want this and they have to comment with the word let's have a fun word. What's a fun word?
You know what? Let's use the word from Susan here. Let's. Let's find a word from here.
What could we say? Let's find a word.
Let's say.
Let's say treasure map.
So if you comment with the word treasure map and you would like me to do this for the first three people that comment the word treasure map, I will do this for you. I will send you the questions, you'll fill it out, and then I will make this magic and get you a postcard, a poster, a poem, and a song. If you want all four, if you just want some of those, let me know. So. And for free. For free, because I like the five minutes and 20 bucks, I think that's what I'm going to do. But for now, for playing around, for goofing around here, I want to do this and I want to see 3 people just comment and I'll help you contact me somehow and then I'll share a link where you can fill this out. Okay. All right. Does that sound like fun? Hey, and I also would love to know, what do you think of this stuff, right? Is it cool? Is it pretty? Is it amazing? Is it silly? And can we please not get into AI discussions? Because I really don't want to. So if you're just not into AI then you're probably not going to like this. So whatever, right? I am good with. Oh, that was another postcard. Where's my favorite postcard?
This one? I think this is my favorite. So if something like this is interesting and you would like your word for the year and a quote and a background based on your design and your story, is that something that you'd want to see? And is that something you would spend five minutes and 20 bucks on?
And then to have a song. Seriously, a song here. I'm going to see what happens at the end.
I guess that was it. I was waiting for some big finale. Hold on, hold on. Let's see if we can get some shortage.
[00:11:30] Speaker B: I follow myself home I knew all along.
[00:11:50] Speaker A: All right.
Pretty cool, right? Let me know in the comments what you think of this. And again, let's not get into AI bashing and all that.
So just you know the words. You know the words to put in there if you want that the first three people I will create all this stuff for you for free. Not 5000 edits, please just I'm going to give me. I'll give you the questions you do the input either typing it or audio and I'll create this stuff Three people. Fun, right? There's my gift to you and then we're going to see the year of you and how this evolves in the coming weeks. Thanks for watching this Thursday Thunder Bradley Charmander Podcast YouTube channel. See you around. Bye for now.
