You will do what you want, if you want to.
I've had a quad bypass, cancer, bad knees, etc.
Now, at the age of 68 1/2, I am building stone walls, cutting and splitting 7 - 8 cords of wood a year. I fish as much as I want in the boat and the surf. I end up, according to my FitBit, walking 4 to 5 miles every day.
I feel great. No, that's not true. My knees hurt, my back hurts and I cannot go 16 hours a day anymore but I still get everything done that I want.
I think the real trick to aging gracefully is working smarter not harder. I figure I'll keep going until I am 90. Then PUFF!!
