Recently, I turned 45. When I was 8 I wanted to be a scientist. The two things I knew about scientists were 1) they wore white lab coats and 2) they used a key card to get into buildings. I knew this from watching movies. An 8 year-old scientist would be a phenomenon. A 45 year-old scientist is just a scientist. What I’m saying here is, no one is impressed by a 45 year-old doing anything. Whatever you are at 45 is pretty much what you’re supposed to be.
