Hi Denny,

I really appreciate your honesty and vulnerability in this post, it’s so relatable! The shift in capabilities as we age can be frustrating, but I love your perspective on focusing on what we can do instead of dwelling on what’s changed. Your “one step at a time” mindset is truly inspiring, and it’s a great reminder that persistence is key, no matter the pace. Thanks for sharing your journey, it’s a comforting read for anyone navigating similar challenges!

Thank you for this wonderful post—I can completely relate. I’ve faced many health challenges and experienced trauma after losing a loved one, which has been an uphill battle. However, with the loving support of my incredible husband, Denny (my superhero), our kind and compassionate son, Brandon, and our ever-loving pup, Turbo—and most importantly, with God who has seen us through the hardest times—I’ve learned to move forward one moment and one step at a time.

Hi, Denny!
I, too, can relate to your post. My memory and focus are not what they used to be! But, I choose to think I am more single-minded and just prefer to do one thing at a time. Is it true or am I fooling myself? It helps to think I’ve learned something from the me who was in a flurry doing four things at once, getting them done, but having life just fly by. Maybe I’ve learned to appreciate the moment, and my mind just refuses to juggle anymore. LOL! Looking forward to your next post!

I think working on computers is what can cause distraction after distraction. Then a bit of burnout from looking at a screen all the time. I forgot 2 appointments this past week and remembered at the last moment and got there on time. I need to remember to write these things down!!

Hi Denny,

I really enjoyed reading your post and I can absolutely relate to what you’re describing. It’s amazing how much more capable we feel when we’re younger and how life—and the way our bodies and minds function—shifts as we age. I have been struggling a lot with memory in my 40s and it has made me switch my entire career.

That said, I really appreciate your perspective on *not* letting it stop you. Like you, I’ve had to come to terms with the fact that I cannot read and memorize mass amounts of information like I used to. I don’t retain as much and I am often much more tired and have less of that go go get it done. I’ve started to embrace the “one step at a time” mentality as well, especially in the context of running an online business and learning new skills. And I have also accepted I cannot do it all and need to focus just on one thing. There’s no need to rush through the process. What matters is consistency and growth, not speed.

Looking forward to watching your journey – one step at a time!
