An extensive study in the USA revealed that:
- The most productive age of human life is between 60 and 70 years;
- The 2nd most productive stage of the human being is between 70 and 80 years;
- The 3rd most productive stage is 50 and 60 years.
Before that the human being has not yet reached its peak.
The average age of Nobel Prize winners is 62;
The average age of presidents of the world’s 100 largest companies is 63;
The average age of pastors in the 100 largest churches in the U.S. is 71;
The average age of popes is 76 years.
This confirms that the best and most productive years of the human being are between 60 and 80 years of age.
This study was published by a team of physicians and psychologists in the NEW ENGLAND JOURNAL OF MEDICINE https://lnkd.in/d54_yQ6
They found that at age 60 you reach the top of your emotional and mental potential and that continues until you are 80.
In a 2008 article in the Journal of Psychological Science in the Public Interest, researchers charted the range of cognition—or how well our brains can function—at various ages. What we find is that the potential for high-functioning brain activity peaks in our 50s but remains high until our 90s and functional into the 100s; however, the average person peaks at 30 and declines to a nonfunctioning state by his or her late 80s.
I’ve seen people starting their business at the age of 70 and at a time, accepted the fact that maybe I wasn’t old to start on mine. 🙂 My mother-in-law had her business running until the age of 95! She’s ironed man’s shirt for entrepreneurs and local business owners for over 76 years, she used to say proudly. Can you imagine that? Even if she had started her ironing business at the age of 70, she would have run it successfully for 25 years!!!
What is your excuse to not do or start something you always wanted?
A week has seven days and someday is not one of them 😉
The time to start is now! Embrace your dreams, take the first step.
If it is important to you, you will find the time, you will find a way, you will find the money. If it is not, you will find an excuse… You’ve got to choose
