I clearly remember when I was 18, then 25 and in then what seems like a flash, I have recently celebrated by 50th birthday. While some people might dread the thoughts of hitting such a milestone.
I feel as fit and healthy now as I did in my twenties. I wake up every morning grateful for another day. I also feel blessed for everything that I have achieved and for all of the wonderful people around me. I feel happier, healthier and more content than ever and the journey is not over yet!
I have spent much of the last five decades trying to figure out, who did I want to become? What did I want to do? And what difference did I want to make? As you know, in life there are no set of instructions, or path we need to follow as we each of us has our own special journey.
Sure, I know that I should have made some different choices along the way, but thankfully I don’t have too many regrets. What I have learned over the years, are a few simple lessons that have helped me and if I could go back in time, I would pass these life lessons to my younger self.
