Your age is a disease.
You're 49, and in a few months, it's your birthday. What immediately came to mind? Fear of turning 50. That's what the world says about us, too. Because you're turning 50, you're shunned from working, living, being, and doing what YOU want. You're invisible. It's AGEISM!
Your age is a superpower, and your spending authority is over 15 trillion dollars.
Grab seven tips to refute it … to understand the power you wield, and play age to your advantage. This way, you can advocate for yourself the next time someone brings up age, or you feel bias coming on.
- Understand your power as a human over 40, 50, and sixty.
- Lazy or aren't resourceful
- Can’t think as clearly
- You can't start a company or switch careers entirely
- Technophobia
- You look good for your age. Of course, you do.
- As we age, we're weaker in the workplace - and the world.
