You Are Never Too Old
By John Holland
Many of us know people who when they’ve reached a certain age, find themselves stuck in the mind-set that they’ll remain single for the rest of their lives. All too often you’ll hear them say: “I’m too old,” or “It’s too late, I’m not going to meet anyone now.” The same goes for people who feel that a promotion has passed them by, or it’s too late in life to start something new. Many people fall victim to this self-limiting belief or subscribe to this form of societal programming. I love the quote by George Eliot: “It’s never too late to be what you might have been.” This article’s message is: It’s never too late and you are never too old!
A few weeks ago, I was lecturing on one of my favorite topics, the power of the soul. I was in the process of explaining how your soul attracts what it needs and desires, when a woman raised her hand and said that she’d been thinking about the artwork she did when she was younger. She felt that synchronicity was playing its hand in guiding her to go back to the art she so loved to create.
As much as our soul tries to guide us to our highest good, we as humans have a tendency to shrug it off and not pursue what we are being guided to do. We often find excuses, or put up internal barriers that prevent us, as this is the easier option! I looked at her and said, “You’re never too old to do what you feel passionate about.” I also reminded her how Louise Hay, the founder of my publisher, Hay House, didn’t start her empire until she was in her late forties. It all started with a small pamphlet, and now her company is the biggest self-help publisher in the world! She will be turning 85 this year, and is still out lecturing. When she’s at an event, she stands there signing books for every person in line. I always recommend to people the importance of having a role model, and to follow how they accomplished their goals.
