And that\u2019s what I find myself doing today, on my 71st birthday. It\u2019s a curiosity of aging that as we get older, we have more to look back on, but we also find ourselves looking forward with more intensity. And what\u2019s on my mind this year is how we actually have more time than we often think we do to realize our dreams and build the lives we truly want.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That\u2019s a truth that\u2019s not always easy to see in a culture that treats aging like an unfortunate disease to be avoided at all costs. America is a young country in a hurry. And it\u2019s often simply assumed that we have to do everything by the time we\u2019re 30. There are endless lists of the high-achieving \u201c20 under 20\u201d or \u201c30 Under 30.\u201d I\u2019m surprised we haven\u2019t yet had \u201c5 Under 5\u201d (\u201cThough still in pull-ups, this tech visionary is taking the toddler-VC crowd by storm\u2026\u201d).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But I was lucky enough to be raised in a much older country that reveres the wisdom that comes with age. And what I\u2019ve learned as I\u2019ve gotten older is how much we can gather steam as we gather years. That\u2019s certainly been true in my case. I founded my first company when I was 55, and continued building it well into my 60s. I founded my second company when I was 66 \u2014 one year after the traditional age of retirement. And now, at 71, I\u2019m leading a company that has just raised an $80 million round of Series C funding led by Kleiner Perkins and Owl Ventures. I work with many amazing \u201c30 Under 30s\u201d while doing the most meaningful work of my life! And with this new funding, we\u2019re in a position like never before to accelerate our growth and impact and double down on our mission to end the stress and burnout epidemic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Living a life of well-being and resilience and being able to continue building our dreams as we get older are deeply connected. When we take care of ourselves and take the time to unplug and recharge and find joy in the journey, we can prove F. Scott Fitzgerald wrong and create deeply fulfilling second, third and fourth acts for ourselves. Over the weekend, for example, just days before his own 71st birthday, Richard Branson found joy and made history in his journey to the edges of outer space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In a recent MarketWatch piece, Jonathan Burton writes about the \u201cgray revolution\u201d of companies realizing the value older workers bring. And much of that is due to the revolution in how we think about health and well-being. As Burton writes, there might not be as much of a difference as we think between an \u201colder worker\u201d and an employee just starting their career: \u201cNowadays a 55-year-old employee, for example, could easily stay with an organization for another 25 years.\u201d Given that \u2014 if you include mental health \u2014 90% of healthcare problems are connected to our behaviors and the way we live and work, we do actually have a lot of control over whether we arrive at old age healthy. And as Linda Fried, director of Columbia University\u2019s Aging Center, put it: \u201cWith health we unleash the potential for older adults to contribute to society.\u201d This collective mindset shift is unlocking new possibilities for both individuals and companies. \u201cWe\u2019ve never had this before,\u201d Fried says. \u201cWe don\u2019t yet appreciate what it could offer.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We can even have major epiphanies later in life. At 56, less than two years after founding The Huffington Post, I collapsed from burnout and exhaustion. The changes I made to how I live and work in the year after that eventually led to founding Thrive Global.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The literal definition of \u201cretire\u201d is to withdraw, to retreat, to go into seclusion. But if we take care of ourselves, that\u2019s hardly an apt description of aging. When we prioritize our well-being, these can be years not of retreat and withdrawal, but of expansion and engagement, whether personal, professional or both.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So let\u2019s take away from ourselves the pressure of believing we must achieve it all at 30 or 40 or any age, for that matter, or all at once. And let\u2019s also remember that when we take the time to unplug, recharge and find joy, wonder and gratitude in our daily lives \u2014 instead of burning ourselves out in pursuit of some imaginary deadline \u2014 we\u2019ll be better able to realize our dreams and actually be present for them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Originally published at ThriveGlobal<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Birthday reflections on time, deadlines and dreams.
