The blog this week has to do with the idea of rethinking an old idea. Stay with me on this one. If you’ve been around as long as I have, you understand that what was once old, will be new again, only this time it has been rebranded. I read an inspirational post this morning that got me thinking and needing to adopt the concept. I wanted to share it with you.
60 IS THE NEW 30
We’ve seen the gorgeous “more mature” actors and models grace our movie screens and magazine covers. In years past, if you were no longer fit, young, and beautiful, your career as you knew it was all washed up. Not anymore. Thankfully, for those of us who have been around the sun many times are glad that 60 is the new 30 or so we’d like to believe!
HAPPINESS IS THE NEW RICH
Who doesn’t love and is proud of their “toys?” You know, the spendy car, the boat, the RV, the Louis Vuitton purse (what do mean is it real?) and the Louboutin shoes. We get these things because they will make us feel happy, rich and fulfilled, right? Possessions come and go. They wear out, expire and break. They get outdated or we simply tire of them. One thing that most of us can acquire at zero cost is happiness. Happiness is the new rich.
INNER PEACE IS THE NEW SUCCESS
We’ve all been there, done this. We are at a gathering of strangers the usual conversation turns to “What do you do?” We puff out our chest and go through a litany of things that describe our achievements and success. I certainly hope they are impressed! We find ourselves overly busy and overly stressed. We share our exhausting schedule and wear it as a badge of honor. This is why we are successful, right? Wrong. Maybe taking time to step back, slow down and find some peace is just what the doctor ordered. Inner peace is the new success.
KINDNESS IS THE NEW COOL
Think back to high school. There were the cool kids, then there were the others. The cool kids really didn’t have much to do with those who weren’t in their clique. Think about now. Is it different now that you are all grown up? Treating everyone you come in contact with honor and respect is cool. Kindness is the new cool.
HEALTH IS THE NEW WEALTH
In the big picture, it simply doesn’t matter how much money you have, how big your house is, how expensive your car is or how much you paid for that purse. If you don’t have your mental, physical and emotional health, you have little. This is a reminder to take care of yourself and make your health a priority. Health is the new wealth.
