Your 40s are a major trough. About the age of 50, feelings of satisfaction begin to rebound and keep rising into your 50s, 60s and 70s, with health being a major factor.

More quotes by Jane Pauley
The courage to try something new makes me proud.
Jane Pauley
About the time I turned 50, I experienced the profound biological change that often accompanies women at that age. Also, I put two kids in college and lost both of my parents, so I'm no longer somebody's daughter.
Jane Pauley
Many people come to reinvention when life changes around them, but people come in all different stripes. I'm oriented to change.
Jane Pauley
I have been fiercely private, in part because I could never understand how a journalist could be otherwise. I was also the mother of small children, and security concerns were paramount.
Jane Pauley
I am not one of the great journalists of my time.
Jane Pauley
My guess is that people look at me and project their own values - importance of family, ego is healthy but not the biggest thing. I don't know. I can't explain my popularity.
Jane Pauley
I envy people with dreams and passions, but I don't think that way. I still don't have a 'bliss' to follow. For people like me - I suspect that's most people - holding out for a 'dream' or a 'passion' is paralyzing. I just like having work I enjoy that feels meaningful. That's hard enough... but it's enough.
Jane Pauley
I love working with an audience. I love working with actual people who, you know, if they're moved, you see it. If you say something they're stunned by, you see their jaws drop. If they're amused, they laugh - that kind of reinforcement, I totally adore.
Jane Pauley
'Good Morning America' exploited Joan Lunden's pregnancy, but you won't see me bringing my babies on the air. The only reason I'm talking about the babies at all is that they've been with me on the show since I became pregnant. After a while, I had to acknowledge this pumpkin tummy.
Jane Pauley
I'm not driven by killer ambition. I'm not a workaholic. I'm a good team player. I don't have to be captain, but I do want to play on a winning team.
Jane Pauley
My goal is to see that mental illness is treated like cancer.
Jane Pauley
I can cook but not well. I figure I have six years until my children discover what their friends' mothers make for dinner.
Jane Pauley
I had had some months of depression. Not serious enough to keep me from work. So, I guess you'd call that a mild depression.
Jane Pauley
I've always been profoundly ambivalent about fame. I think it just eats the reality out of you and it can be intoxicating because I like some of it.
Jane Pauley
Kids learn more from example than from anything you say I'm convinced they learn very early not to hear anything you say, but to watch what you do.
Jane Pauley
Twins are a high-risk pregnancy, by definition. The quieter I am, the longer I can keep them growing.
Jane Pauley
My tides were fluctuating, too - back and forth, back and forth - sometimes so fast they seemed to be spinning. They call this 'rapid cycling.' It's a marvel that a person can appear to be standing still when the mood tides are sloshing back and forth, sometimes sweeping in both directions at once. They call that a 'mixed state.'
Jane Pauley
I would not take for granted that my personal life - because I knew better than anybody - that it was just a life. It was surprisingly an ordinary life.
Jane Pauley
It's like if people don't see you on TV every day, they think you're in cryogenics somewhere.
Jane Pauley
When I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder the year I turned 50, it was certainly a shock. But as a journalist, knowing a little bit about a lot of things, I didn't suffer the misconception that depression was all in my head or a mark of poor character. I knew it was a disease, and, like all diseases, was treatable.
Jane Pauley
