In a go-getter society that prizes prodigy and speed, it can be daunting to go back to the drawing board to pursue a new goal. But motivational speaker Les Brown reminds us that no matter your age, it’s never too late to dream something new. Brown had a long line of unsuccessful interviews before he landed his own CBS talk show — at the age of 67. “What if I’d just given up and stopped? ...
