ATG 261: 50 Things That Took Me 50 Years to Learn: Part 3

About this episode

I just turned 50, and milestone birthdays make me reflective. Here's what I realized: I liked my 40s way more than my 30s. I'm happier, in better shape, more connected relationally, accomplishing more goals, but taking more vacation. Why? What did I do in my 40s that made it the best decade of my life? In this episode, I'm sharing the first 25 lessons from my list of 50 things that took me 50 years to learn. From "everyone should write at least one book" to "your phone is a casino that runs on time," these lessons cover everything—money, marriage, mentors, mountains, and why you need to own a good suitcase. Some are practical, some are profound, and all of them will make your life better if you apply them. This is part one of a two-part series, so next week I'll share the final 25 lessons to close out the year.
