Wanna Live Longer? Get Really Involved

[Guest guest]

Older people live longer if they have found a valued role in life

over which they can exert control, concludes a national survey of

retired Americans aged 65 and older. The research was conducted by

scientists at the University of Michigan.

" I think what's important here is that it is one more paper ... that

shows in a scientific fashion what we've been observing ... for

years, " says J. Gorbien, MD, director of the section on

geriatric medicine at Rush Medical College in Chicago, and an

associate professor of internal medicine. " That is, when people have

a sense of purpose, people have control over their destinies, they

are certainly going to have a perceived improvement in quality of

life. [Why] people actually live longer if they have a sense of

purpose or control is a little more vexing to understand. "

Five Secrets of Centenarians

I have found after interviewing thousands of centenarians and their families

and in my 14 years of working with centenarians in public and private

celebrations, media events, travel and leisure that centenarians who are

successful in active, engaged living at 100 years have the following five

traits, attitudes, behaviors or as some would say, personalities:

A love of life

A positive, yet realistic attitude

The courage & willingness to use modern medical interventions when needed

A spiritual or religious belief

And a remarkable ability to renegotiate life at every turn adjusting to and

accepting the inevitable losses that come with longevity. "
