You're never too old

Sir Mick and the Stones say, "You're never too old." They'll keep on playing as long as people want to hear them.

Age is definitely a function of the mind and not specifically of the calendar. Too many people succumb to the belief system that says you have to feel this way at a certain age, or that you have to stop doing something at a certain age. How many times have you heard someone say, when (usually proudly) discussing their particular infirmity or malady, "I'm just gettin' old." As if that explains it.

Yes, things wear out. We'll all die. But that's no reason to program your brain and your mind and your body with premature thoughts of being unable to do this or that.

I've done a bit of online dating in the last year, and met a lot of women aged 40-50. It's an interesting age bracket. And there are two noticible categories of women in that group... those that act "old" and those that don't. Women who believe that age 40-50 is "old," invariably look older. Their posture, their skin, their attitudes... they ARE old. 'Cause in their minds, they believe they are.

And that's the way it works. Believing you're old makes you old, not the other way around.

As Mick Jagger says, "...If you have creative energy, age doesn't matter."

Keep on creating yourself as a young person, no matter how many candles you have on your cake.
