Is 40 too late to start a life?
Yes, it is possible to start a new career at 40 — or 50, or 60, for that matter. It might take some extra effort, but it's never too late to set new personal and professional goals and live a life that feels meaningful. BetterUp can help you find the best way forward.
Is it hard to get a job in your 40s?
If you're over 40, hunting for a job and not getting hired, you're far from alone. Adults in their 40s, 50s and 60s now make up half of the long-term unemployed (those out of work for more than six months) in the U.S. Roughly 1.2 million older adults fall into this category.
How do you deal with professional failure?
Giving up is the number one reason why people fail. The road to success is tough, and there are a lot of bumps along the way. When you experience failure or rejection, it becomes easier to give up. The next time you want to give up, remember that you are not your failures.
