As we age, it's only natural that we start to think about ways to make ourselves feel 23 again - or whatever age we felt most energized and untouchable. Whether it's through diet, exercise, or other lifestyle changes, there are many avenues to explore when it comes to looking and feeling younger. If you're ready to take on the world again, here are a few ideas to help you get started on your journey...

There is a point in our lives where we feel like we are settled. We are comfortable, and change becomes scary. Yet, the only thing that is stopping us from trying new things is ourselves. Let's talk occupations. Once we have familiarized ourselves with a job and company after 10+ years, we believe this is our only journey to success. However, this is only stopping us from taking risks and exploring something new. With the continued growth of remote working, there is no shortage of opportunities to choose from. There is always the perfect position out there for everyone, it just takes a little time to find one that reignites excitement. Once you're satisfied with your 9 to 5, then start focusing on the remaining hours, filling them with things that radiate positive energy. These ventures can be incredibly rewarding and reinforce the idea that "goals over gossip" should be a lifestyle. Surround yourself with people who actually put in the work to make it happen while also respecting you and the time you put into achieving your goals. Motivation is the best medicine.

Now, there's no harm in allowing ourselves to focus on the more superficial elements of life. Whether it's a trendy new haircut, a new closet, or getting into a workout routine, it's the little things in life that have large impacts. Growing up is a part of life, and we have to deal with multiple obstacles that are thrown our way. Sometimes, it's far too easy to forget about the opportunities that are waiting for us. It's important never to take how precious life is for granted. Whether this is a road trip, exploring a new destination, or ticking something off your bucket list, nothing should scare us. Life is exciting, so embrace it to the fullest. Make sure your 2023 is memorable for all the right reasons.

As we become accustomed to our daily routines, especially after 40 years, this becomes engrained into our minds. We tend to forget how much is out there, so it is up to our power and initiative to get back on track and not let our age get in the way. Remember, it's just a number! So take the plunge and pursue these four steps. Make 2023 one to remember. After all, if not now, when?
