I was having a conversation with a friend, and we got on the subject of how we would be living, and feeling in another 20 years.
I’m 53 today, So when I look ahead at myself at 73 I’m hoping to be retired, enjoying life, and remaining active.
Then she brought to my attention how it might not be that way or that easy. She said just look back 20 years and how you were feeling then.
Really quickly. I thought back 20 years and then I realized she was probably right. Until I woke up the next morning.
I started thinking about our whole conversation again and then I started thinking back 20 years ago. I was 33. We had just sold our business, We were married for 6 years, to help each other out, We worked for my mother-in-law to give her a break and she was helping us so we would have income.
I was smoking cigarettes a pack of day, We did not have any children, We did not exercise, held crazy hours and eating was never on time or that healthy.
Today being 53, I own my own business. I work 3 days a week, I do not smoke cigarettes, I work out three days a week, and I am surrounded by amazing family and friends that I call family.
I think I’m going to be okay in 20 years, I’m going to manifest it, I plan on retiring in 8 years, maybe do something for fun or pick up a hobby, and I plan on continuing to work out and although my body will be older, I plan on enjoying it till the end.
Enjoying life one day at a time.
