You only live once - but if you work it right, once is enough. - Joe E. Lewis

Don't panic, you're only 40. On the bright side, you can seize the day and have a mid-life adventure instead of a crisis! Now you have the experience and wisdom to accomplish anything you set your mind to. Whether it's starring as an extra in a film, researching your family tree, or seeing the New Year in on Copacabana Beach in Rio, it's time to try all the things you've never done before.

Things to Do Now That You're 40 will help you think positively, with things like this to look forward to:

  • Allow yourself to lose your dignity. It's an overrated virtue anyway
  • Give up some of your time and volunteer with a worthy organisation
  • Make sure someone irresistible has licked your stomach and kissed the back of your knees
  • Realise that it is never too late to live the life you imagine for yourself
