Far too often, as time passes, and the hard knocks of real life take effect, our youthful enthusiasm fades.
Gone are the big dreams and life defining goals that charged our imagination.
We’ve become jaded, embittered, trapped in a life of security-based complacency.
The gravitational pull of social inertia has firmly taken hold, rendering us “average.”
It doesn’t have to be this way.
You have a choice.
But change isn’t easy.
One of the hardest things you will ever do is recapture the passion that set your spirit on fire.
Don’t be surprised if few share the thrill of your midlife second wind. You threaten their beliefs about aging and potential.
That’s okay. You’re older, wiser and way beyond needing approval.
It’s now time to focus on self-development and transforming your life.
These tips will put your efforts in context:
-
Enhance your emotional and physical well-being through mindfulness and regular exercise.
-
Write down your goals; know exactly what you want in life.
-
Create a blueprint for making your dreams a reality.
-
Eliminate self-destructive habits and negative people from your life.
-
Remain steadfast in your desire to realize your potential.
-
Relax and enjoy the process of creating a new life.
