I'M TOO OLD.

your age can seem to be a major obstacle on the road 

YOU

are eager to take.

you feel its too late 

to change your job

or to write that book.

you'd love to learn new things.

but your age won't allow it anymore. 

RUBBISH, OF COURSE !

if you're not careful, you will let your destiny slip from your hands by feeling 

either too young

or too old.

when you were young, 

your excuse was that you didn't have enough experience to make your dreams come true.

now you have discovered that you have ended up in the 

TOO OLD 

category, dyer says.

the age excuse is based on your tendency to identify more with the number 

of laps you did around the sun

than with the unlimited nature of your being, 

which is quite independent of your body's age.

thoughts are ageless, and when you live in the 

present you will no longer worry about how old you are. 

you will just focus on what you want to do at that moment. 

an excuse that is very similar to the  age excuse is 

it will take too long.

the american psychologist 

MURRY BANKS 

describes a conversation he had with a 44 year old woman who decides

not to go back to school because she thinks she will be too old by the 

time she finishes her training. 

'how old will you be when you get your diploma ?'

he asks.

'forty - nine,'

the woman replies.

'and how old will you be in five years if you don't go back to school ?'

this example illustrates an important notion that can help you 

overcome this excuse :

time goes on, no matter what.

do you want to spend that time on 

self development and realising your dreams and self ambitions ?

or,

do you want to spend it on thinking wistfully of all the 

things you could have done ?.

change 

'I'M TOO OLD'

into 

'I'M NEVER TOO OLD

TO DO WHAT MAKES ME HAPPY, 

AND I CAN DO IT RIGHT 

NOW.'
