\\u201cThe list of what I want to accomplish continues to grow,\\u201d says 64-year-old Purple Patch athlete, Rick Wimmer. \\u201cSociety expects people to retire, but this is how I get the most out of life!\\u201d

Maintaining a growth mindset is everything - at any age. In this episode, recorded on location at the recent Purple Patch Training Camp in South Carolina, Matt converses with two Purple Patch Masters athletes, Rick Wimmer and Ken Pagliughi, about their recipes for success and longevity in sport and life.

Both are highly successful individuals \\u2014 Rick was a partner at Ernst and Young for 35 years, Ken a District Attorney in New Jersey \\u2014 but they also continue to thrive and improve in their athletics, health, and mindset.\\xa0 With Rick at 64 and Ken at 71, they both have so much more to accomplish and refuse to settle for stagnation.

This conversation is packed full of humor, personal anecdotes, inspiration, and education for athletes of all ages.\\xa0You, too, can develop a path to longevity and excellence at any age as long as you maintain a growth mindset and choose to evolve.\\xa0

Have a plan, don\\u2019t settle for less, be willing to reinvent yourself, and as Ken jokingly says, \\u201cDon\\u2019t Screw It Up!\\u201d
