Gratitude and thirst for knowledge can extend your life.
Everyone dreams of knowing the secret of longevity. After all, it would be so nice to comprehend the secret of a happy and long life. Especially if it would allow you to do nothing and at the same time remain strong and healthy. Such tips exist, and they are far from secret. Just follow the 10 guidelines and you will live a healthy, happy and fulfilling life.
Healthy eating hasn't hurt anyone yet
It will not be a discovery to anyone that centenarians are trying to eat healthy food. But the burgers are so delicious! However, if you want to live happily ever after, you will have to part with them. Just associate every sandwich you eat with a specific period in your life. They ate a sandwich - they took a week of life from themselves, beloved. I agree, the comparison may seem silly, but in fact this statement is not that far from the truth. Try to follow this rule: make sure 80% of the food you eat is natural. These should be vegetables, fruits, lean meats, nuts, legumes, dairy and whole grains.
Sleep as much as necessary
Sleep has a huge impact on our lives. If you want to be successful and productive, then don't forget about healthy relaxation. It is commendable that you can sleep two hours a day and function almost perfectly, but your body will not forgive you. He doesn't care if you have an urgent report or session. He needs rest.
Quit smoking now
Scientists have long established that smokers shorten their lives by at least seven years and, in the long term, get nothing but illness and disgusting health. The faster you quit, the more birthdays you will meet.
Don't forget about physical activity
Movement is life, no matter what you are told. By starting to play sports, you will only receive benefits. You will feel much better. You will look great. And since you look great, then your self-esteem immediately rises by several points. Confident people are guaranteed to become more successful. And success, as you know, helps to prolong our life.
Be sociable
Your sociality is one of the most important aspects of a long and happy life. Just arrange a meeting with friends you haven't seen for a long time. Call your grandmother, aunt, or nephew. You will immediately notice that there are people around you who care about you. Simple communication can cheer you up at least until the end of the day. But a good mood is also a guarantee of longevity.
If you like to drink, then do it wisely
This is one of the most important tips for future centenarians. People who do not smoke, exercise, eat healthy food and drink wisely live 14 years longer than those around them who do not. It is better, of course, not to consume at all, or to limit yourself to one glass of whiskey or wine.
Become a dreamer
All happy people are dreamers. They strive upward and are not afraid to fall. In fact, such individuals are friendly with failure, because it is an integral part of their growth and development. Don't be afraid to take risks and win too. Only by trying something new will you find out what you are capable of.
Don't let go of your thirst for knowledge
People who have lived long and happy lives followed one rule: they tried to learn and learn as much new as possible. Your education does not end at school. Try to learn something new every day. Indeed, in our time, self-development has become such an easy and accessible process. We are surrounded by information everywhere. We can read a book, go online and find absolutely everything there. But don't forget about healthy communication. Your friends can also tell you a lot of new and interesting things.
Remember family and friends
Ask 100 passers-by what is the most important thing in life, and you will receive in return - family and friends. If not everyone answers that, then most are for sure. But we very often forget about our family. We have too much to do and not enough time. We lack 24 hours to work. What a family here! But this is irresponsible. Family is really the most important thing in life. You can always find at least a couple of minutes a day to just call your family. Instead of a Twitter and Instagram feed, call your mom.
Be grateful for what you have
Some of us think too much about what we want to achieve and get. In this race, we do not notice many pleasant and good things around us. Be grateful for what you have. It will make you happier - scientifically proven. One study found that people who are happy with what they have are more optimistic, happier, and even sleep better than irritable and grumpy people.
These simple and straightforward tips will help you fill your life with meaning and make it long and happy. Perhaps all of the above is commonplace for you and you shouldn't even talk about it. But in the confusion of days, we sometimes forget the simplest things. Suddenly these tips will help you. Then everything was not in vain.
