Want To Listen To The Article Instead? 

 

 

I’ve written this from the perspective of a mid-lifer, about how we get infinite chances at reinventing ourselves only if we’re looking for those opportunities. My children play video games and they have this permadeath feature where you can “press reset” repeatedly. What we lived real life like that?

What if we could shed old versions of ourselves, forgive our own mistakes, and drop toxic habits and people that don’t serve us?

Here’s to a new reset.

About The Article Author:

Hi, I’m Rachana. Its been my dream for years to do something to consciously create a better future where every one of us is excited about our own potential. My challenge to everyone is that they aspire for their personal best and leave a legacy of their work through their contributions to mankind.

One more thing. In December of 2044, I hope to win the Nobel.

Will you join me on this journey of growth and transformation?
Namasté.

That Will Leave a Mark – A Poem by Rachana
