Jay and Heather Harrington explore how age, success, and well-being are all shaped more by mindset than by biology or circumstance.

Quotes to ponder:

"Age is a question of mind over matter. If you don’t mind, it doesn’t matter."

"Thinking that we are old and frail or young and vibrant, therefore, can each be their own self-fulfilling prophecy."

"The only thing that stands between you and your dream is your mind."
