Wanna excavate some stories of deeper success for late bloomers? Well, here are a few examples that demonstrate that success has no age limit.
When most individuals of his age were retiring, Ray Kroc founded McDonald's. He was 59 years old when he purchased a restaurant in San Bernandino, California and transformed it into McDonald’s empire we know right now.
Harlan David Sanders worked many different jobs from farming to steamboat pilot, to insurance salesman before he started Kentucky Fried Chicken at the age of 65 years. Less than 10 years later, Sanders had more than 600 Kentucky Fried Chicken franchises in the U.S. and Canada. The rest is all history.
Winston Churchill failed three times in high school and spent his whole adult life as a political failure, losing every election bid... till he became Prime Minister of England at the ripe old age of 62.
We are all motivated by stories like this, but when it comes to us taking a course to learn something new, we play the very old age-card game and shun it off. We believe we are too old to learn or its already too late to start.
Such remarks from people in their midlife or beyond frequently lead us to wonder whether there is an age restriction on learning??
