Regina Brett Lesson Quotations

When I turned 45, I lay in bed reflecting on all life had taught me. My soul sprang a leak and ideas flowed out. My pen simply caught them and set the words on paper. I typed them up and turned them into a newspaper column of the 45 lessons life taught me. When I hit 50, I added five more lessons and the paper ran the column again.

When it comes to going after what you love in life, don't take no for an answer.

To celebrate growing older, I once wrote the 45 lessons life taught me. It is the most-requested column I've ever written.
