Life After 50: You’re Never Too Old To Succeed


“The hardest years in life are those between 10 and 70.” – Helen Hayes (at age 83)

Think getting older stinks? Some say that life begins at 50. Here are more reasons to embrace your golden years. Take inspiration from the following "oldsters" who accomplished more after 70 than most do in their whole lives:


* Nelson Mandela, having lived a life dedicated to the realization of democracy and the defeat of apartheid in his native South Africa, emerged from a long imprisonment at the age of 72 and within four years became president of his country and the recipient of the 1993 Nobel Peace Prize.
* Mary Baker Eddy, who founded the Christian Science Church, started the Christian Science Monitor daily newspaper when she was 87, two years before her death.
* George Burns, who returned to motion pictures after a 30-year hiatus in 1975 at the age of 79, lived to be 100 and in his later years became the unofficial spokesperson for an inspired old age. He quipped, “I get a standing ovation just standing.” 
* Grandma Moses (Anna Mary Robertson Moses) became internationally known when the world took notice of her American folk paintings. During the next 20 years, until her death at the age of 101, she created approximately 2,000 paintings.
Researchers at Stanford University also discovered:
• A third of the accomplishments of the four hundred most famous people came when they were between sixty and seventy years old.
• A quarter came when they were seventy to eighty.
• More than half of what researchers called “the world’s greatest work” was achieved by leaders, thinkers, and creative people, businesspeople, and others who were sixty or older. More than half! Some examples:
• Hillary Clinton was sixty-two when she became America’s secretary of state.
• Golda Meir was seventy-one when she became prime minister of Israel.
• Julia Child was forty-nine when her first cookbook was published. Louise Nevelson was a prolific sculptor well into her eighties. Tony Bennett is a regular Grammy Award winner, and he is an octogenarian.
Even if you are 70+, there’s still time to do something very meaningful with your life. If you are only in your 50s, like me, be very grateful. From a different perspective, you are a kid with the whole world before you.$


[Do you know how Facebook and Google became the most powerful companies in the world?

It’s NOT helping you share pics of last night’s dinner...
It’s NOT searching for drunken cat videos…
And it’s DEFINITELY NOT about free Gmail accounts.
 
The simple truth is Facebook and Google SELL TRAFFIC.

They SELL TRAFFIC to business owners, and that advertising revenue alone has turned them into billion dollar companies.
 
Traffic is the most valuable commodity on the internet, and that will never change.
 
This is why using the Traffic Authority business system is the ultimate way to make extra income in your business…
