Thoughts of the Week: March 1, 2024

There’s no such thing as “too late.”

There’s growing pressure in today’s society to start young — to have everything figured out in your twenties and to “make it” before you’re 30. And while there’s nothing wrong with making moves early…it shouldn’t stop you from making moves later as well.

There is no age limit to finding success.

Don’t let any notions of being too old, or being too late, keep you from taking next steps. You can start “late,” and you can even start over if you have to; it doesn’t matter as long as you start. It’s the first — and most important — step to getting to where you want to go. 

Don’t let an insignificant obstacle like age stand in your way. Make your moves.
