See What's On the Horizon

On the horizon of what, you might ask. Everyday is a new day, and with every new day comes new challenges. These challenges shouldn't die out, even when someone gets older. Did you know that the famous fast food franchise restaurant chain, Kentucky Fried Chicken, was started by Colonel Sanders after he retired, with a newly cut social security check of $99? When I heard that I was truly inspired. It just goes to show that anybody can do anything at any age, really. I love to wake up every morning and ask, "What challenges are out there today?" I've done a lot of things I've wanted to accomplish in my life, and yes, for me, accomplishing things is important. It's a big deal for me. I started a business, got a PhD, played guitar in bands, written songs, wrote a novel, had articles published, started several podcasts, traveled, and the like. And hey, I might even do a new business, write another book or two, make a documentary video, travel, and who knows what else when I retire. It's not the end of a life when we retire. It could be the start of an amazing new existence doing something entirely new and enriching!
