Take a moment. Imagine yourself 25 years from now. Some of u would be retired. Some of u might be visualising urself enjoying at a holiday home with family. Some maybe CEO of a corporate or a high flying entrepreneur. Some as political leader or religious guru. 1/6
Your goals and aspirations may differ but am sure nobody paints themselves as obese, someone who can’t bend to tie their shoes. Someone so frail that getting up from a chair becomes a Herculean task. Yes as you age your hairs will thin, u will have wrinkles,2/6
your steps aren’t quiet springy, but imagine no wheelchairs, no canes. Whatever u r doing, u r doing with the energy of someone half ur age. Your body isn’t standing on your way. How am I so sure? Because I am living, breathing proof..3/6
And neither I was an athlete in my younger days nor am a trainer coach or nutritionist or doctor. I have a body that’s ageing in reverse. At 55, having metabolic age of 38. Isn’t exercising daily better than heart surgery?4/6
Change ur mindset. What is difficult now will be vastly better in future. U save for ur retirement without even knowing that u will live that long. Or will that be even sufficient. U never question savings. Similarly make healthier life choices today to avoid sickness,..5/6
..improve longevity, and decline later on. Take care of ur sleep, nutrition, exercise. Take care of your body. Find your killer confidence. Ping me if u have any question. Happy to help. #fitafter50 6/6

If I could go back and tell my younger, stressed-out self how to stay sane, I wouldn't suggest a complex meditation routine or a productivity hack. I would offer these three simple, hard-won habits.
The Art of the Empty Seat - Not everyone deserves a seat in your car. Negative people are like potholes; you don't try to fill them in while you’re driving 100 km/h. You simply steer around them. Engaging with someone committed to misunderstanding you is the fastest way to lose your sanity
Forgive and Move On - Resentment is just heavy luggage. And you are the only one carrying it. People u r angry with are carrying on life unbothered while you are the one exhausted from dragging a suitcase of ‘how dare they’.

Four broader lessons I am carrying back from the speakers at Communion - simple ideas, lifelong impact:
1. Value your values. - Traditional wisdom may look old, but it quietly outperforms every ‘new hack’. Character compounds. Integrity is foundation. In everything - never compromise.
2. Keep learning. Invest 2 hours every week in learning something new. Just 2 focused hours. Every week.
Over 10 years, the cumulative edge is more powerful than any degree. Curiosity is the best compound interest.

Life teaches us more through mistakes than successes.
Here are 10 mistakes I don’t want to repeat and the lessons they taught me.
1) Skipping warm-up
I injured myself by jumping straight into workouts.
Lesson: Prepare before you begin : for exercise, work, or conversations.
2) Not spending time alone
I kept myself busy to avoid silence.
Lesson: Time alone gives clarity. Sit with yourself often.
3) Letting emotions control actions
Acting in anger cost me relationships and peace.
Lesson: Feel the emotion, but act only after calming down.
4) Forgetting gratitude
I focused on what was missing.
Lesson: Gratitude turns ‘not enough’ into ‘more than enough.’

The whole house is asleep when I wake up. I walk around lifting the curtains like I do every morning. I open the gate. Breathe all the polluted air. Today I noticed something different.
Every corner of the house is holding stuff. Gadgets. Decor pieces. Random things I/we bought on impulse or saved in cupboards for a perfect moment. At least half of these no one would realise as missing if I trash them.
All of it was money at some point. And that money came from time we spent earning it. Time feels cheap when we think we have plenty. It feels priceless when we realise how little of it is left. Specially at 60.

Your body is always sending signals. Heart rate. Sleep. Blood pressure. Patterns. Most people don’t track them, so they miss early signs. This thread is a simple guide to start listening and take control of your health.
Blood Pressure-
Sit quietly for a few mins before you take it.
- Ideal: 120/80
- Over 140/90? Keep an eye on it
- Over 180/120? Go to your doctor
Most home cuffs sync to your phone so easy tracking.
Watch trends.
Sleep
Aim for 7–9 hours. Track when you go to bed, when you wake up, and any interruptions.
Wearables work great. No wearable? Use an app like Sleep Cycle. Let it run overnight while your phone charges.

I got my DEXA scan earlier this year. At 59, my T-score is +1.2 (great bone density) & my muscle mass is up 8% in 2 years. a big win at my age. I have stayed pain-free, blood markers are optimal, and VO2Max is 44 (excellent). Here's what’s behind these results
As you age, building muscle gets harder. That’s why training smart matters more than training hard.
It’s not about how much you do, it’s how well you do it.
Here is how I train to build muscle, stay mobile & feel great well into my 50s
1. Frequency:
3x/week full-body lifting
Once/year I switch to 4x/week upper/lower split
11-week cycles, 1 week off
Training each muscle group 2-3 times weekly produces superior hypertrophy compared to once-weekly training.
