At 50, You’re Not Losing, You’re Playing a Different Game

Описание: At 55, I realized I was playing a game I could no longer win. This is the story of how I stopped trying to beat a younger version of myself and finally found a way of playing that actually makes sense for the second half of life.

About This Video:
We spend our lives being told to be faster, stronger, and more skillful. But what happens when "the wheel turns" and your body starts sending signals you can't ignore? Whether it's a routine blood test, a ceiling at the gym, or the realization that you’d rather be on the sofa than at a bar at 2:00 AM—the shift is real.

In this video, I talk about the "uncomfortable realization" of hitting your 50s and why so many of us mess up by trying to push harder instead of adapting. I share why I decided to sell my business at 55 and how "consistency" became my new metric for success.

What we’ll cover:
Why I never let my son win (and why he thanks me for it now).
The "Flags": How to recognize when the game has changed.
Why "pushing harder" in your 50s is a trap.
The Reframe: Picking your battles and the power of consistency.
Finding liberation in not having to prove anything anymore.

If this resonated with you, I’d love to hear your story in the comments. Have you hit that "ceiling" yet? How are you adapting?
