I'm getting old. I've always been a very self-aware, cerebral kind of guy.Mirror mirror on the wall,

Don’t I know it!I'm getting old. I've always been a very self-aware, cerebral kind of guy.
Looking at myself and my cohorts, I'm very aware that brain function degrades. I noticed it starting in my mid 50's. It takes a lot longer to solve complex problems, and the confidence in achieving optimal solutions has definitely gone down. The number of concepts/interrelationships that can be analyzed simultaneously with perfect accuracy has also diminished.
It's just part of getting old. Nobody can perform in their 70s at the same level they were at in their 50s.
