21 Life Lessons from a 104-Year-Old

A 104-year-old shares his 21 life lessons. This 104-year-old was born in 1920. I had the great honor of interviewing Franz Weiss, the 104-year-old former mayor of Steyr. The 104-year-old Franz Weiss tells us: – How he reached 104 years of age. – How he shaped Steyr as mayor from 1974-1983. – Why honesty is important in life. – How he met his wife. – Why looking forward is essential – And many more valuable life lessons. Mr. Franz Weiss unfortunately passed away on October 5, 2024, in his 105th year of life.
