Living Longer

Are you planning for a happy, healthy and fulfilling life until you die or planning for decline in your old age? Whatever you’re planning for usually shows up.

Sometimes we take on the beliefs of others without even realizing it. Certainly the media has done it’s share to portray older people as helpless, cantankerous, irrational, slow, outdated, unhealthy and sexually undesirable. We just go with the flow - believe it’s inevitable that we, too, will go into physical and mental degeneration as we pass through time. We come to believe that the best we can hope for is to hold back the tide with smoke and mirrors.

Decline is entirely optional. We can choose to live our potential which expands everyday. Or we can choose to degenerate by neglecting ourselves – neglecting our health and our happiness.

If time is the measurer and space is the field, use your time wisely and fill your life with the best you can imagine.

Let’s really LIVE longer – not just take longer to die.
