You cannot allow society or media to tell you how you get to live your life. This is your life, it is your choices that determine how you get to live it. So here’s a list of things that it is never too late to begin doing. May it help you find that fire within yourself to go after whatever it is that you want!

  1. Go after your dreams

There is no time limit on going after whatever it is you want, no matter how bad society likes to tell us how it’s “all over” by the time we hit a specific age. This is your life and it is your choices that determine how you get to live it. So stop listening to the nay-sayers and the “realists”, because they’re too afraid to go after whatever it is they want. Have faith, let go of the fear, and if you can’t, feel the fear and do it anyway!

2. Learn something new

It’s ok to be terrible at something as soon as you start it! It’s ok to be a beginner and learn and challenge yourself and your mind in novel ways. As we age, it gets harder and harder to be open to new things, but pushing ourselves outside of our comfort zones is so good for us. Studies have shown that trying new things, being open to learning and growing, can help increase the neuroplasticity of your brain.
