Continue to widen your interest. Not all of us can go to a foreign country but, long before old age, every one can begin yo look forward to learning new things, to pursuing past times and developing skills. you can expose your self to new interests in any ways such as browsing through library shelves, attending lectures , joining civic and welfare activities and even blogging! Inquiries into things that are new to you quickens the mind and heart.
Be eager to continue your life. Aging is a process in which most people do more things for the last time, and fewer for the first time. Reverse that and you have an antidote for growing old.
Be affectionate. Love is one o the most powerful stimulants to a longer and happier life. Human warmth is, of course, not limited to romantic love; devotion to your fellow men serves equally well. The faculty of being genuinely concerned about others enriches any one’s life. The earlier one acquires it, the better fortified he will be for his later years.
Dont let the emotions rule you! Giving into anger is one of the unhealthiest habits we have. Avoid heated arguments and strong conflicts.
Don’t worry. Worry is just a bad emotional habit; like any habit,it can be broken if you make sufficient effort.
Make friends easily. As you grow older you must accustom yourself to the lost of lifelong friends and be prepared to make others. To do so, you must have something to offer. You don’t need money; offer whatever pleasant ans useful to you.
Have Religious Faith. Religious counselors agree that the real comfort of faith comes but faintly to elderly persons who have previously neglected it. How much richer life is for those whose faith helps them constantly during the stresses and trials of everyday living.
