So many of us worry about getting old. We think aging is a bad thing. We are afraid of getting older and the unknown that lies ahead. 

The oldet we get the more we learn. The more experience we have on this planet. One more year helps get you closer to your ultimate goals.

One more year down is one more year we’ve learned. We’ve learned more about a specific subject. Learned more about ourselves. Learned more about our wants.

Getting older is all about perspective and your outlook on life. 

If you think with old age comes worse years of your life, you’ll look down on aging. If you look at aging as a year you’ve learned, worked hard, failed, gained experience, closed in on your dreams, found your passions, etc. you’ll look forward to the next year. 

Of course you don’t want your years to fly by but you also don’t have to dread turning older.

If you’re focused on your goals and constant improvement each year brings a better version of your current self. Each year brings new challenges and adventures. Embrace the next year.

Look back on what you’ve learned. Look back on the great experiences you’ve had. Evaluate the tough times. The hard parts of life are possibly more crucial to shaping you as an individual. 

Discomfort helps us grow. It pushes us to improve. 

Push yourself to get better. Push yourself to do something different. To do something outside your comfort zone. Push your self for improvement.

Each year can bring you Joy and sadness. Whatever this new age brings you learn from it. It will bring lessons to learn from at the very least.

Associate aging with a positive experience. You don’t have to celebrate but you should evaluate how your year went and what you need to do this year to accomplish your goals in life.

Aging is fun and necessary for improvement.
