Surveyor, Tadataka Ino
On July 10, 1821 (187 years ago), the map of Japan was published. The map was based on the survey done by Tadataka Ino(1745-1818). He could not finished the map but his pupils finished it three years after his death.
He learned the survey and cartography when he became 50 years old. He started the project of surveying Japan at the age of 56 and he continued on until he died at the age of 74.
His map was very accurate. It was used for more than a century.
Would you start something new at the age of 50?
What are you going to leave behind as legacy of your life?

At 42 (not 50), I moved from California to Tokyo with my family to start something brand new. Can't wait to see what God develops.
Go Jeff! The best is yet to come!
When you approach 50s, you need to say "no" to the things you should not be focusing on.
