Turning 40, freaking out a bit, need a bit wisdom

hey everyone, I'm turning 40 this months and are having a bit of a mid-life crisis 😁 which is good because I start thinking about what I have achieved and what is yet to come. also about family, health and everything really...

the big thing for me is also AI and especially what we are learning here in this community. honestly, it still blows my mind what I have seen, witnessed and develop here since I joined the community in March this year, is, truly incredible. my own journey with AI through this space and engagements here have also exceeded my own expectations. since I'm relatively new to AI, although my first machine learning project was back in 2015 teaching a software the Ge'ez (old Ethiopian language) alphabet und how to read ancient manuscripts, I work as AI Officer at NPO and humanitarian aid organisation. this is wild to me, because 2,5 year ago I was unemployed (almost 2 years in total).

so not sure where all of this heading and what's possible. turning 40 years yet make an important impact for me. not sure if most people in here are above or below 40...? but for those who turned 40, how was it for you?
