 Weight
loss is more difficult as we age — after age 40 our
metabolic rate slows by about 5 percent every decade,
meaning by age 50 we need to consume about 200 calories
less every day just to maintain a desired weight.

Growing challenge
 No
matter how magnificently you may arrange your life, no
matter what level of wealth, power, position or respect
you may attain, there will always be challenges for you
to face. In fact, the higher you climb, the more
daunting the challenges usually become. Fortunately,
your ability to prevail against challenge also increases
with every accomplishment.
There will always be challenge and right along with it,
opportunity. There will always be the need for strength,
for courage, for focus and perseverance.
Those who put off facing the challenges until "someday"
find that the someday never comes. Those who wait for
time of doing something about their situation, will find
things getting worse and worse.
Meet each challenge as quickly and as competently as you
can. There will be another one right behind it. And as
you work your way through them all, you'll find yourself
fully alive. Success comes not from the absence of
challenge, but from the ever-increasing ability to
benefit from it.
