A mid life crisis isn’t really a crisis at mid life. It’s simply an opportunity to:
- Re-THINK
- Re-PRIORITIZE
- Re-COMMIT
Common sense, isn’t it? Pretty simple actually.
Be careful though. Simple does not mean easy. Carpe diem. 🙂

Who Gives A Crap?
“He that would govern others, first should be Master of himself”. — Philip Massinger
If this is the case, then there really aren’t too many qualified leaders out there. Are there?
How hard do you work to gain mastery over yourself? Do you even care? Isn’t it an awful lot of work to polish things no one can immediately, if ever, see?
Then why do it? Simply this, you will know. And if you never get to the point where this is important to you, then you will never understand self-mastery. If you never understand this, you will always be frustrated with people, particularly yourself.
Who gives a crap, right? My point exactly.
Mid Life Workaholics Unite
“Opera is when a guy gets stabbed in the back and, instead of bleeding, he sings”. — Ed Gardner
Workaholics rarely have courage for self-confrontation. We’re too busy trying to control things and control life. If we pause long enough to notice the bleeding, we might have to change who we are.
Panic attack, right? When will we take time to:
- Rethink
- Reprioritize
- Recommit
Probably never. Am I wrong?
Or maybe when the phone rings, “Honey, it’s for you, it’s your wake up call”.
