    My mom got her dual degree in sociology and psychology when she was 65 years old. She worked until she caught covid last year at the age of 74. She was in a coma and on life support for two months. She refused to give up even then. She emerged out of coma, went to rehab and is ready to get back to work. My mom doesn't play. She does not care nor think about her age at all!!!!

    I reinvented myself this month. I only wear certain colors now and cloths and even certain clothing lines. I only wear my hair a certain way. I only eat and drink the healthiest foods I love, and do all the things that are connected to my new self. I have thrown away almost 80% of my whole life and now I am having steady writing success and attracting much. People often tell me now that they think I am a manager or in some very high position and I tell them I am. I am even doing 4 things that many people never thought I would. People stare at me alot now and lots of people want to talk to me and many men keep coming at me with interest. Now I am a very powerful manifester. I have manifested a long list of things even big things just over this month.

    Thank you for this video! My story is very much like Rushion's and there's not a lot of social validation if you're in your 40's. I've watch hundreds of entrepreneurial videos looking for inspiration and they all focus on young adults leaving us out. It can feel disheartening at times like you're out here all on your on with nothing but your willpower and belief in yourself. That can be exhausting as well. I HAVE to believe I can reinvent myself at 45; frankly because I'm doing it. Also like Rushion mentioned: at this age you have life experience that a 20 yr old could never have. That is an asset to be utilized and treasured

    The timing and synchronicity of this video is unbelievable for me. I am speechless! I cannot get past the thought of how I am too old for ‘this’ or ‘that’. Completely stagnated and paralyzed with this thought. And now I hear this person say so many amazing things about exactly that.

    I moved to China against what people said. After a year, I returned (it was a year teaching contract). Being back home, I was miserable and didn’t want to go back to the sales job or teaching. I returned to China and because of the pandemic, my school closed. I ended up homeless and jobless, BUT I’ve continued to move forward. I’m committed to learning mandarin. I want to learn new languages and teach English moving from country to country. I just turned 50! 50! My life is going in the direction I have chosen. I love ❤️ and appreciate these videos!

    This episode is so timely! I recently made the decision to close my practice of 10 years and make a career change. Some patients and friends are happy for me, others think I'm crazy to leave such an income (my son). At 54, I realize that life is short and I am bored with alternative medicine. I have accomplished everything I can image accomplishing and now it's time for a new challenge. I have overcome many obstacles, endured much hardship and had years of being broke while raising my son. I have goals and dreams to fulfill and working as I do doesn't give me the time freedom I desire. Thank you for this show and the re-inforcement that I'm doing what is right for ME!

    I’m crying..... (joy) I saw this video earlier this year. But I wasn’t ready to hear this in my heart and my mind. But since then, I just took the leap, well into my 50’s. Very excited, but a little nervous. But yet I press on, to live the life true to who and what I have been purposed to live.
    It’s fear for me because I’ve been abused physically and emotionally as a child, by mom, sexually molested by her brother, pushed out of a second story window by my sister at the age of 4...
    Married to an abuser for 7 years, (1st marriage) married over 20years... (2nd marriage) and just abandoned his family. Yet, by Gods Grace... I RISE, with a purpose, having grown from life’s experiences.
    Thank you Tom for hosting so many great ppl. I will accomplish every goal that’s meant for me! 💛

    You not only have to "make adjustments" to achieve your goals you must ALSO step out of your comfort zone. Trying to play it safe or seeking security are the two primary reasons why people choose to live in employment captivity. There is a mindset required to be an entrepreneur, there is a mindset that causes people to remain enslaved, and there is a mindset that allows people to remain in employee captivity.

    He's humble and brilliant
    at the same time and his blessings are well deserved!
    Finally, kudos to the host! What a thoughtful and excellent interview! I just subscribed and am sending this interview to my oldest son. He is working, while also building his own national and international business. I know this will be encouragement and mentorship for him as Mr. McDonald is exemplary in the way in which he dissiminates the wealth of knowledge he has and continues to obtain.

    I think most people dont put their plan in play so they never feel the commitment, or deadline pressure

    Tom is one of the most respectful interviewers. I see so many of these influencers who have guests on their show but it's really just an excuse for the host to talk about everything they want to talk about. Tom does his research, leaves the interviewee with targetted questions related to the converstaion but also questions his viewers want to know, and honors the guests life and achievements by making sure he takes into account everything they have done . You're awesome Tom

    Tom, when you live in the inner city you see and experience a LOT of pain, hardship, hurt, disadvantages and disparities. Many in the inner city do not see the opportunities that may be possible through extremely HARD work, Courage and Faith because of so much negativity and disparities. But, when you are shown, see, or search for opportunities you may see that there is a possibility to move with your dream and work and fight for them. So, Living in the inner city is a daily FIGHT to survive in many cases, but when your mindset realizes that you want something and you believe in the possibility that you can have it FAITH moves in and then you must take that FIGHT that you have learned from living in the inner city and use it to fight for your deepest desires. As Rushion says Fear of stepping out of your box and challenging yourself is huge and very real. I'm in the process working on something and would love to tell you more about it FEAR but stepping out of the box here.

    Great interview! Love what he says about how to find your voice.
    "If you keep it simple, you can find your voice. Also know that you operate off short-term goals. When you don't know where you're going in life, do not look 4 years down the line, do not look two years or a year. You look next week, next month. You keep your goals short and then when you accomplish those goals then you can start piling up little trophies or little moments to know you actually accomplishing something. You actually climbing the steps to success. Where people make the mistake in their goals, they put, not so insurmountable an goal, but a goal that doesn't allow them to qualify success quickly enough. So I always tell people shorten your goals, shorten your window, and that's how you find your voice."
