While, it's nice to have goals, at some point in your life, you realize that the time that's passed is a LOT more than what's probably left to you. Spending time stressing about goal not met and dwindling time to accomplish them, can be stressing and unproductive.
The best you have ever looked, is always just a place in your brain that you keep, and only think about when you see an old face staring back at you from the mirror.
There is not enough plastic surgery/botox in the world to re-create what Mother Nature gave you all those years ago...and when you "had it", you no doubt worried all the time about not being as handsome/beautiful as
"other people".
Before you know it, your "baby" will be 35 (mine became 35 last week), and you still remember them in their onesie... when they learned to ride a trike.. their first day of school...their fist date..all their milestones.
Memories are being created every day, but the time left to us to actually remember them is not unlimited.
Be kind to yourself as you age and accept that "slowing down" is a gift ..not a curse.
Accept that wrinkles do not make you less desirable as a friend/companion, and most people are too busy thinking about their own frailties to be all that concerned about yours 
Being debt-free as you age is the best gift you can give yourself. Worry about money ages you well beyond the birthdays that defines it.
De-clutter/divest/downsize and save save save save. Not to "leave what you have to your family", but to simplify your own life and to be able to enjoy your time.
And finally, give yourself permission to "divorce" the toxic people in your lives.. even if you are related to them.
