Seriously, we no longer have the miraculous benefit of youth/growth
Ain’t no glamour on the road. Exercise is challenging to come by also.

His nose did not grow so maybe he was honest
Our air conditioner stopped working and upstairs was sweltering. Grabbed a tank top heading out the door (also sweltering) to pick up our Son at school.
He asked if we could go to a store near the Mall (same Mall with an Apple Store). We spontaneously ate dinner at the Mall food court and I suggested we pop into the Apple Store.
Totally unplanned, bought a new iPhone case.
The Apple Store employee said to the 54-year old, “I wanna look that good when I’m your age”.
Unsolicited.
Approaching 15 years of focused and disciplined effort.
When you hear the long way is the short cut, it ain’t a theory.

The health habits we spend our lives creating ultimately can pay dividends we never knew we would need later in life. Say for example, you are in your 70’s or 80’s and you fall, have surgery, and are then instructed to go through extensive physical rehab or you will never walk again.
And if you can not walk at that age, the decline to needing 24 hour nursing care is immediate.
What are our odds of doing the challenging work after surgery if we were unwilling to do it while we were healthy?
