Recently, I came across with few people who started their life in their 60s.
I remember my History professor at the University, who got his Law degree in his late 40s, and became a lawyer in his 50s. He then found a wonderful partner and got remarried in his late 50s!
Another person started a new career in her 70’s doing her gig at 1 am! And many more examples are out there. You can be who you want to be no matter what age and it is never too late to try to achieve something. It’s not all about achieving something as a result but it is also great just to try to experience the process.
These late achievers inspire me as I am passing my mid 50’s… they didn’t stop living because they thought they were too old to start something. It is all about your mindset. Your mind is the CPU to drive your life after all.
Last year, I decided to start learning how to fly. In my younger days in Japan, becoming a pilot was not easy and as a female, it wasn’t option. That’s why I couldn’t wait to leave the country. Many friends thought I was crazy for starting this late and asked why I start now in my 50’s.
I also heard the small whispering voice telling me ‘why now, what’s for?”. I simply responded to my voice by saying why not now, if that is something I’ve been wanting to do? My life, I am the one and only who can make my bucket list come true after all. (I posted photos of my experience in my Instagram @justinek_pacificmatch )
Thanks to the C@R*$ in a way, many of us had a chance to learn about the importance of living at the present moment concept. As long as you can remove the mental block and stop hearing negative / worrying voices, you can achieve anything….but how can you remove the block and voices?
Steven Pressfield, the author of “The war of Art’ . He wrote practical steps to remove your metal block and help you start living. I am all about “Let’s not sabotage our life by hearing other peoples voice”. I wish I knew about this way of thinking years ago so I could have done more, but the past is past. I am happy to know about this now.
The voice is NOT coming from you..it is conditioned mindset built throughout your life. All of us resist to any changes, so we hold on to the block without knowing that is holding you back. The good news is that it is up to you to remove it. Focus on hearing your voice not your parents’ voice! Next time you are have a chance to move forward, you can pay attention to what you hear. You can chose to block the voice. It’s conscious effort.
Do you have a bucket list? I highly recommend you to make one if you haven’t had a chance to make one. You can update it as you go through your life. (Bucket list is not all for those who are aged and dying!) You never know when your time is up, regardless of age. Why not try to live today as if there’s no tomorrow? Remember, anything you desire is possible to achieve..only if you can chose to stop listening to the negative voices.
If finding your soulmate in this life is in your list, start doing something now. Not after something is done, not next month, not next year….now. Go online, go join meetups, start allocating time for yourself, ask around to see if anyone can help you setup a date, hire a matchmaker! Just to let you know every moment, every day counts towards meeting someone special. (or anything in life, really.) S/he doesn’t know you exist until you raise hand and wave.
Never too late to try finding love. Never wrong time to start searching. There are plenty of love you can find around you. You worry about making commitment because your friends are having marital problems? Remember, they once was happy. And don’t forget about the couples who are happily married.
You are the one who is limiting from finding Love by choosing to see the negatives. Surround yourself with people who are positive and happy. You are not responsible for your friends’ unhappiness.
If you had series of bad luck in the relationship, think of it as a precious life experience you have gained to meet the person you are meant to be with. Your mind is the only source to give yourself a chance to meet someone. Just like science experiment, you only need 1 (one) success after many failures. Practice always bring better result. Your loneliness is nobody’s fault nor the luck. You just have to believe that there are plenty of love to go around and you can attract the right kind of relationship next time you meet someone.
It is really true that the life is the reflection of how you are processing the situation inside of your head. Can you imagine how things will change if you can tune up to believe something positive?
I can help you identify the “patterns” that has been repeating in your life. It helps you to recognize the cause of the unwanted results and prepare you to have the different outcome in the future.
You just need to tell yourself, it’s never too late to try again. The soul connection you are looking for does exist! (My service is not only introducing to your match, but including the support you need to achieve the relationship goal that you desire. )
Happy Holidays!
