- Seek out people who bring out the best in you, challenge you, and help you grow. Just as children are extremely influenced by the friends they make, so are you.
- Do something scary on a daily basis. Among other things, this implies overcoming any shyness and discomfort at talking to people you don’t know.
- Simple rules for success from Jane Goodall: “… really work hard, and take advantage of opportunities, and never give up…”
- Learn something new every day. Just as you exercise you body, you also need to exercise your brain. This becomes more important the older you get. Studies have shown that the most important brain exercise is to learn something completely new, not just incremental improvements in a topic you are already very familiar with.
- The more close relationships you have, the fuller you life and the better your health. Invest in friends, family, and relationships, new and old. Take time to really cherish them.

Excellent advice. Anything that truly engages our focus and attention with challenging ideas or tasks will help stimulate brain fitness.
Scientists have shown that the adult brain generates new brain cells every day. By staying focused and alert we help stimulate this production and integrate these new cells into the brain's processing structures.
I admire your courage to document the next part of your life after turning 50 and especially when you have also lost your job as well.
