Our lives are becoming increasingly non-linear with respect to major life events. We can go to school, change careers, start a new business or pursue a new relationship at any age. So, what’s holding you back? Gear up for what’s next.
60 Second Soapbox: Exercise
If you want to keep moving, then you have to keep moving. That statement sounds simple but it provokes some interesting reactions from many people. So why do we exercise? Why should we exercise? Here are the answers.
60 Second Soapbox: Anti-Aging
The global anti-aging market is approaching $200 billion every year — ageism is a profitable business model! But you can fight back against those age-related fears. Wrinkles, gray hair and saggy skin don’t depreciate your value. Here’s more.
60 Second Soapbox: Ditch the Debbie Downers
Passion, enthusiasm and optimism are the cornerstones of a successful life. As we grow older, it’s imperative that we surround ourselves with those who share those values, because no attitude is as potentially harmful as a negative belief system about aging.
60 Second Soapbox: Downsizing
If you haven’t already, start to transition from accumulating stuff to getting rid of stuff. Less is more, so now is a great time to begin downsizing. It’s part of the Growing Bolder experience. Here’s why.
60 Second Soapbox: Visualization
If you don’t practice visualization — give it a try! There’s no harm in imagining the feeling of success, and there can be a tremendous upside (just ask some of the world’s top athletes). Here’s how it applies to Growing Bolder, and your ability to reprogram yourself and start Rebranding Aging®.
60 Second Soapbox: The Illusion of Youth
Struggling to hold on to the illusion of youth while avoiding the realities of aging is a losing and ultimately, self-destructive effort. We have to accept that we can’t defeat aging, but Growing Bolder isn’t about holding on to youth! The desire for vitality has nothing to do with age. Marc Middleton has more.
60 Second Soapbox: Freak Flags
Stop conforming to the expectations — and start doing you! The current norm of aging will prevent you from living your life to the fullest. You can make the choice to nurture what makes you unique. Fitting in and pleasing others doesn’t need to be the goal. Let your freak flag fly!
60 Second Soapbox: The Health Care Paradigm
We all talk a lot these days about our healthcare providers — what plans we’re on. But like it or not, the responsibility of our own health and wellness has shifted to self-care, with the patient at the center of the system. Will we need medication? Rehabilitation? Yes. But the day-to-day responsibility of our well-being is ours to bear.
60 Second Soapbox: Love is the Answer
It makes no difference what the question is — love is always the answer! It’s the way forward and the path through. Researchers say that love raises our immunity, reduces our stress and more. And it doesn’t have to be romantic love. Marc Middleton explains (and reveals the two questions that we all ask ourselves before we die).
