Colonel Sanders

Late Achievers

Walt Disney told us that we are never too old to achieve our childhood dreams.Did you know that Ray Kroc, the founder of McDonalds did not sell his first hamburger until he was in his fifties? Did you know that Charles Darwin did not publish his first book until he was almost 50? Did you know that Colonel Sanders did not franchise the first KFC until he was in his sixties?

We live in a society which is youth focused. We are led to believe that only young people have the opportunities to turn their dreams into reality?

Whenever we turn to the media, we see only portrayals of either young people who are doing great things or old people who did great things when they were young. We rarely see old people who are being recognized for achieving late in life.
