Dr. Brandy SchillaceListen, if you are feeling like it’s too late to follow your dreams or to change things, recall that the very first LIFE ON EARTH film by David Attenborough came out in the 70s when David was 53. Think of every amazing thing he has done since to change the world and promote the environment; these happened in his 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s, and now at 96 he is working on a new documentary in Scotland. I’m 45. It’s like I haven’t been born yet in David years. #nature #environment #aging #hope
Schroedinger@bschillace I can't remember how old he was, but Roald Dahl had his first publishing success very late. In his 50's I think - at least with childrens books. All of his well known works were written late in his life, after he had been moderately successful in his military work.
@SteveClough that’s right! There are many examples. But really it’s less about specific success, and more about the continuing to look ahead, to be enthusiastic about things, to not believe you are ‘done’ at a specific age.
