Finding your purpose and doing what you love can sometimes be a matter of life and death.
Most of the older people that I know are still very active. I know guys who are still working well into their 70s and are still full of life. It’s often that occupation or passion for something that keeps us alive.
When I was in the NFL, I had a coach who was very old. He really didn’t do much, but he still attends every meeting and practice. My veteran teammates would tell me that some older guys like him, who have been coaching their entire lives, need to continue to do so. It’s often when they stop coaching that they die.
I think we all have something in life that we can do that gives us life. Likewise, there are things that when we stop doing them, we may lose our life.
It’s about finding your purpose and your passion and literally doing it as long as you can, or as long as you enjoy it. If you have yet to find a passion or your purpose, you may have yet to live.
