Can 70 be the new 40

This is one powerful video

 

I am at that point in my life when I am counting down the years to when I am going to reach 70 and hoping with everything I have that 70 is the new 40. Because for me life is just beginning

Oh to be young again and have a 5 year plan, maybe even a 10 year plan. I am one of those people who has spent all of my life second guessing the 5 and 10 year plan of those I love most in the world and pouring all of my energy into making their dream come true.

It took me a long long time to realise that being a second rate version of myself is not very rewarding and now its my turn. Everyday is now the first day of my life and I so want to make every second count.

Its time to take my own hand and lead myself down my own journey to success and show myself age does not define who or where you are. I alone make those decisions and I wont always make the best choices but they will be my choices and I still have time to leave my legacy.

So to start with, its time to stop counting jelly beans and just get on with it  

BTW if you find yourself thinking along the same lines here is a link to an insightful post from Shaun Coffey.  What fears are holding you back? Luck is when preparation and opportunity collide
