  • Albert Schweitzer was still performing operations in his African hospital at 89.
  • S.I.Hayakawa retired as president of San Francisco State University at 70, and was then elected to the U. S. Senate.

  • Charlie Chaplin, directed movies at 75.
  • Colonel Harlan Sanders was broke and the recipient of a $102 monthly Social Security check at age 65. He began from there to evaluate what he could offer of value and went to create millionaires all across the world in the chicken business.

Take responsibility for your destiny; and get busy!!!
