I used to travel quite a bit before I started to teach. While traveling you hear stories about different things. Some are true and some are not.
One story I heard was that there was a counter at the Vienna International Austria to take care of people who thought they were going to Australia.
I have been told by good sources that this counter does not exist. This is fake news. If you did make this mistake, you have two choices. The first one is to enjoy Vienna, which is a beautiful city, lots of history and places to explore.
The other option is to book a flight to the destination you originally wanted in Australia. Both could be equally expensive and both will eat up time.
Life is the same way, you can always stay where you are and make the most of it, or you can make a course correction and start heading to the original destination.
If you start the third phase and are happy with where you are, then enjoy where you are at and don’t feel guilty about not doing what other people expect you to.
If you feel that things could be better or need to change for any reason don’t apologize for making the change. As the Nike slogan says, “Just Do It.”
The third phase of life also gives you that opportunity to head to that new promised land, change the direction of your interests, develop that new skill or career.
It only requires you to be cognizant of where you are and where you want to go. I hope my blog about navigating the third phase has inspired you to consider new things and to enjoy life to its fullest.
The third phase of life, the returning phase is your chance to seize that opportunity. Are you a symbol of hope and inspiration to those around you? Do you wonder what you can give to help those who follow you?
If you have struggled with these questions and issues then Patterson2Y2R should be a place you should visit. Share your stories and challenges.
I have an ear that would love to hear your stories. Let’s taste the real meaning of life. I am still working on my course with a goal of launching a starter course by June 30th, and I will keep you abreast as to how the process goes.
If you want to participate in this process and join my first class please send me an email to www.bobchuckpatterson@yahoo.com
