I am forty

As we grow older, it's common to feel feeble and inept compared to our youthful selves. The way society depicts aging as a period of debility and regression only reinforces this notion. But it's imperative to defy this mindset, as it can impede our potential and hinder us from living our best lives. In this piece, we'll explore ways to combat the weakness mentality after crossing the age of 40, such as remaining physically and mentally engaged, seeking positive role models, and sustaining long-term motivation.

The weakness mentality can become a self-fulfilling prophecy, leading us to believe that we're incapable of achieving our goals and aspirations. However, it's crucial to understand that this is a stereotype, not an absolute truth. Many individuals over 40 are hale, hearty, and capable of accomplishing extraordinary feats. To overcome the weakness mentality, a change in outlook is necessary, and that's what this book sets out to achieve.
