Kick Butt Tip from Actress Joan Collins: Age Is Just A Number
Today’s Kick Butt Tip of the Day is from actress Joan Collins, “Age is just a number. It’s totally irrelevant unless, of course, you happen to be a bottle of wine.”
From 1981 to 1989, Collins became internationally famous for her television role as Alexis Carrington Colby in the soap opera “Dynasty.”
Let me share a few motivational points about age and just remind you that you are never too old to turn over a new leaf.
