True or False: You Can’t Teach an Old Dog New Tricks

Sometimes you just can’t control when ideas come to you, and this one was at midnight. So, what else is a podcaster to do than pick up her phone and start recording from a horizontal position?! 

After a conversation with a friend, I was inspired and reminded once again that it isn’t fair to assume that because someone is of a certain age they won’t understand or won’t evolve or expand the way they look at things. I am specifically talking about ‘old dogs.’ I also give an honorable mention to one other saying that I don’t agree with.

So, in answer to the title, I say false. You can teach an old dog new tricks if they are of open mind and spirit. So won’t all you ‘old dogs’ come and join me and see what you think?!

Not be missed take-ways:

1. You can teach an old dog new tricks.
2. You can look at the realities, or and you can look at the possibilities.
3. Strive to be in the learning zone.
4. Trust yourself.
5. You can have your cake and eat it too.

And your mission, that I hope you’ll choose to accept…

Choose a situation, a relationship, an area in your life, and challenge yourself to look at it differently than you normally do. Perhaps try something you haven’t done to help. Try looking at the possibilities you may not usually consider.

 

Thank you so much for listening! And until the next time, live passionately, vulnerably, and keep loving later life!
