• Healthy Aging Starts with Positive Thinking

    How​ ​to​ ​Think​ ​Positive
    Many people wander the earth believing they lack the strength and power to achieve their goals.
    This negative mechanism holds them down. You can gain motivation and live healthier, by
    simply telling yourself “I can do it.” Anything you put your mind to, you can do it if you want to.
    How to tell self I can do it: Just say today I am going for a short walk. Tomorrow I will walk a little
    longer than the first day. You have to be in control of your thoughts, actions, behaviors, etc by
    building your power of the mind. Nevertheless, if you do not put your mind to it and you decide
    that you do not want to become active, and then you are only living a life filled with
    shortcomings. Your negative reflections will defeat the purpose of getting your thoughts in
    control. Saying I will do it later, is another negative reflection. This is called procrastination,
    which leads to laziness. Laziness leads to weak muscles and joints, which gradually builds up to
    medical problems.
    Take control of your thoughts. If you want to do something bad enough you will do what you
    have to do to get where you want to be. You need to make a goal and stick to it. Create plans
    that help you to reach your goals, and take action each day to achieve. When you give up, it is
    a sign that you lack faith in self and is a clear indication of weakness. You need faith to stay
    strong. As well, you need positive thinking to strive.

    Good​ ​results:
    Having a positive attitude will give you a jump-start to a healthier life. Keep on pushing. Do not
    stop once you get started instead go until you reach your goal. When times get hard and you
    don’t think you can go on just remember I –can- do – this always keep your head up and mind
    open. Don’t dwell on something you can’t change, rather focus on the things you have power to
    change.

    How​ ​to​ ​continue​ ​positive​ ​living:
    To stay positive you have to admit your feelings and express them. If you feel depressed or
    frustrated, just say it aloud. There is nothing wrong with showing emotions, providing you do not
    beat up your best friend physically to express those emotions. Stay in control and express what
    you feel.
    You have to talk about how you feel and don’t blame yourself but try to figure out why you are
    so depressed or frustrated. Failing to discover your intentions or reasons will reduce your
    control, especially if you do not understand what you need or want. Do not worry about the
    cause, rather find your wants and needs and the cause will come to you.
    Here are some pointers that might help you get to where you want to be. You have to look for a
    good role model and become acquainted with their way of thinking positively. Try to talk positive
    and avoid negative talk. Seek some support from friends and family.
    Reward yourself with a massage or listen to your favorite music. Make a plan and stay with it no
    matter what. Just remember you can do whatever you want to do and keep your mind set for the
    good things and not the bad things. This will make you feel better and make you a happier
    person. If you’re happy, you will have a healthier life. Don’t forget to create a goal. Don’t make
    the goal so high that you won’t be able to keep it, but make it so that you can meet your goals.
