Things you need to stop doing at this age....

“At your age, this is what you’re supposed to do…”

NOPE. STOP.

I don’t even want to know the end of that statement. I’m not “supposed” to do anything. I’m supposed to do what’s best for me - which is to keep going and keep enjoying life!

These are things society thinks we should do as we age:

👎🏻 Be quiet and let the younger generation do their thing

👎🏻 Put everyone else before ourselves and serve others constantly

👎🏻 Sit around and become aggravated at every inconvenience

👎🏻 Lose interest in fitness because our body is past its prime

👎🏻 Wear age appropriate clothes that aren’t too flashy

This is what I think we’re supposed to do as we age:

💥 Be loud, proud and lead others! You still have the power to influence!

💥 Continue to focus on bettering ourselves so we can be the best spouse, mother, grandmother and friend we can be for those around us

💥 Stay active and keep learning

💥 Keep moving and take care of our bodies so we can keep moving as long as possible

💥 Wear whatever we want. Just because we’re over 50 doesn’t mean we need to blend into the background.

Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. Live like you want to - you deserve it!

If you ever feel like you fall into these traps, it’s okay. I did, too.

Do you feel like you have trouble embracing and taking charge of your life since you’ve gotten older?
