Welcome to today's episode where we explore the timeless wisdom behind the phrase "better late than never." This ancient saying, which originated from a Latin proverb and entered English literature through Geoffrey Chaucer's Canterbury Tales in 1386, reminds us that doing something late is always better than not doing it at all.
Many of us feel the pressure to achieve success on society's timeline. We measure ourselves against arbitrary benchmarks and feel like failures when we don't meet them. But history and present times are filled with late bloomers who found their path on their own schedule.
Consider Mary Mandell, who at 70 years old, still considers herself a late bloomer. In her recent reflections published earlier this year, she shared how embracing her late-blooming journey brought her true happiness. "Being a Late Bloomer is a gift," she writes. "It gave me more time to work on deep relationships, community connections, and personal growth."
The beauty of being a late bloomer is that you approach life with fresh perspective. You've collected experiences, weathered failures, and gained wisdom that younger achievers might lack. When you finally find your path, you bring a unique richness to your endeavors.
Remember, listeners, it's never too late to pursue education, change careers, start a business, or follow your passion. The journey might look different than you imagined, but that doesn't diminish its value.
As we navigate through 2025, let's release ourselves from the tyranny of "too late" thinking. Whether you're recovering from setbacks or just beginning to discover your purpose, the door remains open. Your time hasn't passed. In fact, it might just be arriving.
So if you've been putting off that dream, that apology, that new beginning – remember: better late than never. Your second chance awaits.
