Too old? I don’t think so!

Filed Under Exercise, Motivation · Tagged:  

One of my friends Dolores Hagen writes a blog “Sixty and Sensational” about style and confidence for women over-sixty. She came across a video that I think anyone would find inspiring but I find it particularly pertinent to those who “feel old”.

What age you “feel” is determined by the exercise you get or don’t get, by the foods you eat or don’t eat, and how you emotionally handle the stresses in your life.

While reaching the “end” of your life span is inevitable, it is ultimately the lifestyle choices you make that will improve the quality of your life.

We can believe a lot of things about ourselves… (they can become excuses), the actions we take will support that belief. In other words, you will get the result of what you believe to be true about yourself. When you have a limiting belief about yourself, (not enough time, too old, too injured, poor genetics, etc.) one of the most powerful tools is to find a role model who will prove that belief to be untrue.

Check out this quick video of 85-year old Dorothy Dale Kloss, the world’s oldest showgirl.
