Focus on the now. Don’t lament the past!
You have so much potential! It is never too late to start.
If you have been thinking about trying something new but think it is too late, check out the hottest grandpa in China, Deshun Wang. He was his own DJ for his 80th birthday blasting techno music for his guests.
Here is a brief introduction to his life.
At 24, he was a theatrical actor and at age 49 decided to move to Beijing with nothing. He was penniless so he decided to make money by becoming a pantomime. Not just any pantomime but nearly naked one with metallic paint all over his body!
He started learning English at 44 and to get his body in shape, he started working out at 50 and at 57, he came back to the stage and created a unique performance art called “Living Sculpture Performance”.
At 65, he learned to ride a horse and at 70, he got REALLY into working out.
He is also a movie star debuting when he was 67, playing a part in Warriors of Heaven and Earth (2003), The Forbidden Kingdom in 2008, Detective Dee: Mystery of the Phantom Flame (2010).
At age of 78, he learned to ride a motorcycle and at age of 79, he became a model and walked a sold out runway show at China Fashion Week.
At 80, he still believes there are more for him. More potentials to be explored.
Mr. Wang says something truly profound.
When you think it is too late
Be careful you don’t let that become your excuse for giving up.
No one can keep you from your success except yourself.
