Two Word Secret to Life
NPR’s Wait Wait Don’t Tell Me recently featured Norman Lear, one of television’s most influential writers and the producer of 1970’s sitcoms like All in the Family, Sanford & Son, The Jeffersons, and Maude. At 94, Lear is still as sharp as the proverbial tack. When asked whether there was any secret to his longevity, success, and happiness, Lear said it boils down to two words – OVER and NEXT. Once something is over, it’s over. Time to move on to the next thing. No point in regrets. Brilliant! Incidentally, Lear’s thoughts on Trump are that we “beat his ass, to discredit his message for all time.”
