Keep Learning
The dog is too old to learn new tricks is not a fact, but an excuse. Take that beginning piano course. Grab a bottle of wine and try out that painting class. Don’t rely on your nephew to program your phone, research it and figure it out yourself. Keep those neurons firing and keep that mind primed.
Keep Exploring
Your back patio is great, but it shouldn’t be the extent of your world exploration. Reach out instead of withdrawing. If your passport is ready, go for it. If not the airport, then your car. Try your city with fresh eyes. A different restaurant. A park you’ve never walked. New experiences are fuel for an invigorated state of being.
