1) Ray Croc turned McDonald's into the most successful fast food operation in the world: he was 52 when he started. Colonel Sanders was 62 when the first KFC franchise opened. Our oldest career management client was 71! Don't you ever let me hear you say, "I'm too old."
2) What's the relationship between metal and mettle? I'll tell you. If you've just failed an interview let the experience strengthen your determination.

Work with your mentor to strengthen your resolve.
