Turning sixty-two was important for me. I thought I was going to wake up an old man. All bent over, teeth falling out of my head and blurry vision. But it wasn't that bad. I looked into the mirror, and to my surprise, the same guy as yesterday was there.
Getting older is a mindset. You need to look at how you want to be and how others see you. I feel forty and look just as good. I do need to lose a little weight and eat a little healthier. But overall, I feel awesome.
I do have to add that I never set goals, I set objectives. Objectives get done. They're not a dream or a plan. An objective is something that needs to get done, period. So, in life, my objectives are placed first on the to-do list. So go ahead and set an objective.
The next thing I learned about myself is truth. In the past and I mean for a long time. I would tell people what they wanted to hear. I would beat around the bush about a subject or truth. I am learning every day to confront this. I may hurt some feelings but I'm sorry it's the truth.
Doing for me and not you. Again, I need to focus on what I want and not others. I don't need to please everyone. I really need to please myself. I need to start doing the things that I like to do and enjoy life just a little more. It really gets stuffy doing for everyone else.
So, in closing, my life at 62 is amazing. Yes, there are things that I would love to change in my past, but this will never happen. So, the future needs to be set in motion. Spending time with God, family, and friends. Thinking clearly of all future decisions and setting objectives to be completed.
So remember one thing! Have Love, Enjoy Life, and God Bless
Life does get better when you have Objectives.
