You survived then. Those crazy early years.

The exciting but hugely demanding 20’s, 30’s, 40’s.

You left school and you got a job.
You rented somewhere to live.
You built a career.
You met a partner.
You broke up, you survived.
You lost your job, you got another.
You bought a home, had a child, had another.

Managed to hold down a full or part-time job.
Made your relationship work. Or got divorced.
Survived.
Kept working.
Fed your children, sorted their education, did their homework.
Kept working or ran your full-on-home full time.

You climbed that corporate ladder, established a successful business, thrived, fell down, got up.
You kept the household running financially, emotionally, practically…

And then suddenly, in the blink of an eye, you’ve reached a whole new chapter in your life.

When the job doesn’t appeal quite so much. When your focus shifts from corporate success.
When the kids are more independent and you can come up for air.
You have a bit more time and start to think hey, I can do my stuff now.
And then other thoughts roll in.
Like…
What stuff? What will I do?
And…

Actually, I’m not qualified to do anything else.
Or…
I haven’t worked full time for years.
Or…
I’m probably too old now.
Or…
I can’t start something up myself.
And…
Really I’m just too unfit to start marathons and all that.
You know, I think I’ll just take it easy and sit around and do nothing.

And waste all that talent and experience and wisdom you gained
in your 20’s, 30’, 40’s?
You have so much to offer right now.
And you have a new freedom…

Take some time, get organised, start planning.
