Survey Results! Over-40 Women- What’s Your Big DARE?
Recently The  DARE-Force held a survey/competition, with the question, “Over-40 Women – What’s Your Big DARE? The results are in, and were fascinating- thank you all! 85% said the big DARE was in their professional life, 30% in their personal, and 23% in their community life.
There were big eye-openers. Check these out for thought-provoking results:
1)     Money is the big limiter… 92% answered “money†when asked, “What stops you doing your Big DARE?â€
2)     Fairly even split on who wants to fall in love again! 30% said, “No Way!†but 38% said, “I’d love toâ€
3)     Majority of the participants said they were happy in your current relationship, or at least are sure they won’t leave it! 63% said they would not leave, while 18% said “I’d like to if it were not too scary.†Hmmmm… so almost 20% of over-40 women would leave their current relationship if they were not too fearful?
4)Â Â Â Â Â 38% said they’d love to go back to school, and
5)Â Â Â Â Â A whopping 58 % said they would love to start a non-profit.
6)Â Â Â Â Â I also particularly love the fact that 38% of the participants would love to do something really DARE-ING, like skydiving, scuba diving, or mountain climbing!
These results intrigue me, and I plan to do further research and write more about these DREAMS & DESIRES, among over-40 women.
We randomly selected a winner from the participants, and she will receive a copy of my forthcoming book, Get DARE From Here!â„¢ – 12 Principles and Practices for Women Over 40 to Take Stock, Take Action and Take Charge of the Rest of Their Lives.
Thanks so much for participating!
