On turning 40.

I am about to enter my birthday month and this year is a doozy.
The big 4-0.

Wow. I am still stuck in that "people who are 40 are really old" mindset from when I was 20. Well, that's gotta get updated.

I don't feel old, per se, I just don't recover as quickly.
AND yet I also recover faster.

Recovery ...

FASTER    
Mistakes
Being angry
Embarrassments
Feeling left out

NOT AS FAST
Being over-served
The red-eye
Hard workouts
My children being left out

Ready yourself for a month of anxiety and introspection around this birthday... or tune out until it is over ...
