Age Is No Barrier To Success
Today I have just read the most inspiring blog from one of our fellow WA members.
Joe is 81 and still going strong, helping and encouraging others to reach the goals and desires they have set.
This is why Age Is No Barrier here in Wealthy Affiliate, it does not matter your age, we all have the opportunity to achieve great things.
This past weekend I attended a conference here in Australia that was hosted by an 82-year old.
The man had passion, excitement and the drive to still go on doing the work he has been set to do.
On the last night he got down and did 25 press-ups like he was in his twenties.
It does not matter if you are aged 15 or 100 you can still do great things.
Have a great day
Darren :)

I will be 77 next week and I have been doing IM and writing books for decades. These are both activities I can continue, and I have lists of goals. I live in a smallish town with many people in their 70s and 80s and some in their 90s, and I have been struck by the zest and energy in my friends.
But I must add that my memory is a bit less than it used to be. I take supplements (turmeric and others) to help with this. So while age isn't a barrier to success, it can slow me down... a little. As they say in Mexico, no problemo!
I believe that you can doe anything as long as you set your mind to it. thank you for your encouraging post. Wishing you all the best.
Your success is what you make it.
78 is my age and I still have 22 years of learning to go.

I won the Planet Fitness IronMan competition at 57, beating guys in their twenties. I did 167 miles in 5 days. Age is just a number. Thank goodness my girlfriend thinks the same thing. She is 29.

My 91 year old gramma tells me that you are only as old as you feel. She said her age may be 91 but she feels 60. She is still getting around pretty good.
That's what I keep saying to my kids who think I should just relax only. Today we heard from a missionary who is close to retirement, and recently went to a conference headed by already retired missionaries who are some in their 70-80's still working to share their belief.
