Category: Life’s Big Choices (4 total)
What Counts?
How often does your day go off just the way you planned?
Like hardly ever, right?
What do you do?
At the very least, we can pause in our midlife rush, and count what really counts.
Shouldn’t take too long.
What really matters is a short list.
Personal Responsibility = Antidote
Personal responsibility is the antidote to avoid or at the very least, minimize the damage of a midlife crisis.
When is that drilled into us?
Um……Never.
Unless you are exceptionally lucky.
Society expects personal responsibility to fall from the sky and land on us when we become adults. How’d that work out for you when you turned 18 or 21?
What if mental, physical, spiritual and career responsibility was taught to us from childhood, in our school systems, the way we teach reading and math?
Mid Life Curiosity
Ever have those routine conversations that take you to a cool place? A thought-provoking place that raises questions that aren’t often raised?
Not talking about alcohol or drug stimulated thought-provoking questions, but straight-forward, no bull, full-on, hard-core life questions.
Things like:
Am I no longer king of the hill?
Why is everything turning gray, everywhere?
Why am I so out of shape?
Do others still find me attractive?
Do I still have “it”?
Why am I no longer king of intellectual capital?
Is there any hope to turn my life around?
Mid Lifers, do you ever feel like this? Any advice to others? You’re welcome to be part of the conversation. No expectation, but plenty of opportunity.
Mid Life Distractions
Midlife distractions are everywhere, aren’t they?
And yet, life is pretty simple.
Where did all the complications come from?
Mind, body, spirit, money, plus all the day-to-day clutter.
Has anybody out there found the the answers to life’s big questions?
