"Before 4Life, I always thought I'd be retired at age 55. People would often tell me that everything would go downhill after that point. I always thought I'd be glad if I even made it to retirement. And now, I feel like my life is just beginning at age 55!
"Birthdays are great reminders so I don't relax too much and think that I have an endless amount of time. I want to do everything I've planned and leave myself enough time to enjoy the results while God gives me the ability to do so.
"At this age, I don't have any more illusions. I look at life realistically and I know that life has its different stages. The warm rays of summer are followed by autumn and winter. But from past experience, I know that no matter what, spring and summer always come back. So, I've learned to appreciate every single day. I let unnecessary stuff go and I don't fuss over the small things. I know what's important and what legacy I want to leave to others."
No matter your age, I think everyone can take Lyubov's wisdom to heart. If you think you might be holding yourself back from your true potential, I challenge you to re-evaluate your life, your priorities, and your dreams. Your life begins today!
