Here's another benefit of being older and experienced: we can get things done faster and more efficiently. A while back, my husband and I set out to paint three rooms in our house. It took us about a week to do one, at which point we finally called in a professional. He painted two rooms in a day and did a better job that we did. Similarly, in my own work, I find I'm pretty quick at most things these days compared to when I was younger — and with good results.
