The New Thirty

Forty is the new thirty,” I’ve heard it said. Well, from personal experience, that is quite true. The expression may refer to how we perceive that people seem to mature at a slower rate or that we remain more youthful into our advanced years. Whatever the case may be, I feel better now at 44 that I did at thirty! My mind is clearer, I have more energy and I have the luxury of 15 years more experience under my belt. Don’t get me wrong; competing in the Iron Man Triathlon is not in the cards any time soon, but I am getting closer—probably not.

All you forty-somethings take note: stay active in mind, body and soul. Challenge yourself. Get up off the couch.

Stay tuned
