One last thing I would like to mention is a mental-spiritual theory called Positive Thinking.Positive thinking , my friend is simply recognising negatives in life but refusing to dwell on them.Some people may argue at this point that I am being unrealistic by doing that and that it may not work.But believe me my friend it does work , but only if you give it a try from bottom of your heart.Try giving yourself daily “mental cleansing “ so as to clear your mind of any negative thoughts that might exist in it.

The positive thinker always stays on top of his game , always triumphing in end.He refuses to lose , but if he does lose , he goes after his prize again and again.He does not lose heart when he fails , because he knows that real failure comes when he does not learn from his mistake.

The positive thinker views each day as a new opportunity to make himself and world in which he lives a better place.Being positive minded makes difference if you are going to be sad or happy ,bright or dull , dreary or cheery , productive or non-productive.

This is not simply to do, but when practise regularly it becomes quite natural.This is key to Positive Thinking because what a man thinketh that is what he will become.If you think about small things you will achieve small things , but if you do it other way around you will be surprise at how life can be to you.

At end of day , when you have reconditioned your mind , buy yourself or a friend a gift so as to show your apprecation.This can be in form of anything , as long as you it makes you feel good about your self which is reason of this article.Until then peace and I hope that you will put into action what you have just read.

A lot of this has to do with your attitude and your emotional intelligence. Living long and well means going through lots of changes, and, alas, some adversity. We build resilience by going through hard times and one of keys is staying flexible and learning.

According to Siebert, individuals who die in their 5th and 6th decade have this trajectory: study, then work, then leisure. Resilient seniors have combined all three throughout their lifetime.

Key to all this is learning optimism. Optimists live 19% longer, enjoy better health, are more likely to fulfill their potential, and enjoy life more. Would you be willing to trade some of ways you think now in order to gain those things just mentioned? If so, learn optimism.

When are you planning to "get old"? Apparently it's up to you and I wouldn't hang on to old stereotypes.
