Natural Decline
Everything gets there towards the end, or even throughout its existence. People are no different. We decline with time. Our physical limits go as well as our mental faculties.
It is not easy to watch or experience. But it happens. Prepare for it in advance. And bring your humour with you.

Have A Supporter
Make sure you find someone in life that has your back. Not someone you force to do it or pay to do it, but someone who genuinely wants to be there for you and wants to be part of your life.
If you have one in life, for any time, you are very lucky. Having one that is there throughout life is amazing. Having several would be winning life’s jackpot. Be incredibly grateful for these people.

Shorthand Communication Is Rarely Good
“What does Iran want” is a headline in one of the UK’s top newspapers. The shorthand generalisation isn’t helpful but it’s shorter and catchier than, “What does Iran’s current leader want?”
When we say Iran we aren’t referring to all 88 million people. I imagine, like anywhere, there is a variety of viewpoints on most things. The leader might want something different to his leadership team, pro western citizens, secular or Sunni followers and from those wanting to conquer than go in peace.
So be careful when you hear shorthand or generalisations and think what it might really be like if you dig into the details.

Older Experience And Younger Opportunity
The older I get, the more I can see the potential in people, especially the youth, or those younger than me at least. They have time on their side. If they use their time wisely, they can achieve anything. They just need to dream big enough and get to work.

The To-Do List
There is always something on the to-do list. It might be work or pleasure, rest or play, but there will be something on the list. You will usually be able to think of something that needs to be done, either for you, your kids, parents or friends.
Remember, even when you stop, drop and lay in the ground, there will be things to be done. They’ll either be unnecessary items or someone else will pick up the task and put it on their to-do list.

Prepare
The more prepared you can be, the more likely you will be to succeed. Spend time preparing for your day, week and year. The benefits of this action will be significant.
