  • Better Late Than Never: Inspiring Stories of Success Prove Its Never Too Late to Pursue Your Dreams

    Better Late Than Never: Inspiring Stories of Success Prove Its Never Too Late to Pursue Your Dreams
    2025/07/19
    Welcome to today’s episode, where we’re diving into the phrase “better late than never” and exploring its deep resonance with the ideas of second chances and perseverance. This saying, rooted in ancient wisdom, first appeared as a Latin proverb and was later popularized by Geoffrey Chaucer in The Canterbury Tales, highlighting the relief and opportunity in doing something late rather than not at all—an enduring reminder that it’s never too late to act or achieve.

    In our world obsessed with youthful achievements, stories of late bloomers are often overshadowed. Yet, success truly has no expiration date. Take Susan Boyle, who, at 47, stepped onto the stage of Britain’s Got Talent and stunned the world. She faced skepticism and setbacks, even a stroke in 2023, but defied every odd to reclaim her place in the spotlight. Her story shows that raw talent and determination can emerge and flourish at any age, and opportunity can arrive just when you least expect it.

    Tina Fey didn’t become Saturday Night Live’s first female head writer until age 30. Vera Wang designed her first wedding dress at 40, after years spent in different careers. Pulitzer Prize-winning author Frank McCourt only published his debut book, Angela’s Ashes, at 66. Each of their journeys tells us that milestones can be reached long after society’s supposed deadlines.

    But still, societal pressures have a way of making us feel like we’re falling behind if we haven’t checked off certain boxes by a certain age. Social media and mainstream success stories can leave many listeners feeling discouraged, as if a missed opportunity is a permanent one. The truth is, there’s profound value in forging your own path and trusting your unique timeline. As Mary Mandell recently reflected in Meawisdom, the experiences and failures amassed along a winding journey often prove valuable, deepening relationships, growth, and sense of purpose.

    Listeners, whether you’re launching a new dream at 25, 45, or 75, remember: nobody else gets to write your story for you. Success is a journey, not a race. It’s always better late than never, so take the step—however delayed it may feel. Your moment might just be waiting around the next corner.

  • Better Late Than Never: Inspiring Success Stories Prove Age is Just a Number in Pursuing Dreams

    Better Late Than Never: Inspiring Success Stories Prove Age is Just a Number in Pursuing Dreams
    2025/07/12
    The phrase better late than never has roots stretching back centuries, but its message is as relevant as ever in 2025. Attributed to both the Roman historian Livy and later popularized in Geoffrey Chaucer’s The Canterbury Tales in the 14th century, this idiom reassures us that it’s always worthwhile to take action or pursue a goal, even if it happens long after the “ideal” time.

    In a world obsessed with early achievement—where social media often highlights twenty-something prodigies and overnight successes—it’s easy for listeners to feel behind or discouraged. Yet, as the stories of so-called late bloomers show, society’s timelines are not destiny. People like Vera Wang, who entered the fashion world and designed her first dress at 40, or Frank McCourt, who published his Pulitzer Prize-winning memoir Angela’s Ashes at 66, remind us that remarkable accomplishments can come at any stage of life. Even Susan Boyle, who stunned global audiences with her singing at age 47 and returned from a stroke in 2023 to perform once more, embodies the power of perseverance and the reality that talent has no expiration date.

    The pressure to succeed young can make setbacks feel insurmountable. Yet, as Mary Mandell reflected in her essay, being a late bloomer is often a gift. The journey, with its detours and delays, allows for deep relationships, personal growth, and the perspective to see that failures are not flaws but valuable lessons. Tina Fey didn’t become the first female head writer at Saturday Night Live until she was 30, and Morgan Freeman’s iconic film career only took off in his fifties, showing that timelines for success are deeply personal and shouldn’t be dictated by external expectations.

    For every listener feeling like you’ve missed your moment, remember—success doesn’t have an expiration date. Your story is yours to write, and it’s never too late to begin. As the idiom reminds us, better late than never. Pursue your dreams, take that next step, and celebrate every milestone on your own timeline.

  • Better Late Than Never: Inspiring Stories of Success Prove Achievements Have No Age Limit

    Better Late Than Never: Inspiring Stories of Success Prove Achievements Have No Age Limit
    2025/07/05
    Today, we’re exploring the phrase better late than never—a timeless reminder that action, even if delayed, is always more valuable than never trying at all. This saying traces its roots to ancient Latin and was popularized in English by Geoffrey Chaucer in The Canterbury Tales over six centuries ago. Its core message continues to resonate, especially in a world often obsessed with youth, speed, and so-called “right timing.”

    Society can pressure us into thinking that opportunities have an expiration date, but stories across recent years show that success—and fulfillment—are not reserved for the early risers or those who get everything right on the first try. Consider Taikichiro Mori, a Japanese professor who turned to real estate in his 50s, eventually becoming the richest man in the world by his late 80s. His daring projects, such as Roppongi Hills, transformed not just neighborhoods, but the perception of what's possible at any age. Or look at Vera Wang, who designed her first dress at age 40, and Frank McCourt, who published his Pulitzer Prize-winning memoir Angela’s Ashes at 66. These late bloomers didn’t just catch up; they excelled, proving that fulfillment and achievement can blossom far beyond conventional timelines.

    The pressure to “make it” early can discourage people, leading to missed dreams and unfulfilled potential. Listeners, if you’ve ever felt like time has passed you by, let these stories be living proof that you create your own timeline. Whether you change careers, launch a creative project, or pursue a long-lost dream, perseverance matters far more than perfect timing.

    As Gladys Burrill, who ran her first marathon at 86, once showed, it’s never too late to start. Take inspiration from those who refused to let age or past setbacks define their future. The world’s greatest achievements often belong to those who simply kept moving forward, no matter how late they began.

    Remember: better late than never isn’t just a catchphrase—it’s a rallying cry for anyone ready to claim a second chance. Your next chapter is yours to write, starting now.
