If you’ve ever caught yourself saying “I’m to old to….” or “I’m too young to… ” then here’s two words for you: “STOP THAT!”
When it comes to being a successful entrepreneur, age is not relevant. Never has been, never will be. So, take that excuse out of your list.
Kentucky Fried Chicken franchises were started when Harland Sanders was 65. Michael Dell founded Dell when he was 19 (and with only $1,000). At age 80, T.Boone Pickens is developing wind energy.
There is no age limit on dreams or vision…Or, on life’s possibilities.
No matter where you are right now, this minute, you can make a decision to change your life. You CAN become successful as an entrepreneur and go on to change the lives of people around the world.
So, what are you waiting for? The world is waiting for a leader like you!

“Amen” to that post, Robin. Age is simply not a factor unless you make it that way.
Tony,
You make some really great points… “Do it afraid” is a great motto to keep in mind when we encounter those kinds of fears.
Saying “I’m too young” is just another way to give into that fear of “what if I’m not successful?”
When I think about the good I could have done in the world had I started at age 21, I’m almost heartsick… Tell your nephew there are people in the world waiting for what he can offer….!
