Instruction manual
one
As a rule, you have to start living anew on the rubble of the past, when you need to get out of the dead end. Forty years is the age of re-evaluating oneself. The period of summing up, counting failures and successes, gains and losses, realization in the family and at work. And if such a “revision” ends disappointingly - do not despair. So, it's time to recall the aphorism from the film "Moscow Does Not Believe in Tears" - "At the age of forty, life is just beginning."

Start with changes in yourself. First of all, stop feeling sorry for yourself and think that there are many of them, so nobody needs you with your talents and problems. No two people are alike. You are not in demand until you are interesting to yourself. Therefore, away from doubt, optimism and positive thinking should be a help.
3
Defeat inertia and inner fatigue, feel desire and enthusiasm. The soul has no age, and the forty-year-old person is still young. But the body has the ability to age. To slow down this process, go in for sports, enroll in a yoga group, lead an active lifestyle, increasing loads every day. This will help not only to keep oneself in constant tone, but also to cope with sad thoughts about one's own bankruptcy or approaching old age. Remember the wise saying "In a healthy body - a healthy mind."
4
Give up bad habits (if you have any). And a sense of pride: "I can do anything!" help to cope with all the difficulties.
5
Be sure to realize at least one of your cherished dreams. For example, learn Chinese, learn how to drive a car, or visit Venice. This will not only cheer up and give you pleasure, but also help you find new friends of interest.
6
Do not focus on problems or illnesses. Take care of yourself and the quality of your life. Say no to depression. And most importantly - remember that you only have one life, the other will not. And only you yourself can become its creator.
