A Purpose for Longevity

In this episode I am talking about the pursuit of longevity, but not just pursuing it but doing so with a purpose. Many people strive to live long, and not just long, but healthy and happy. It is important that if you plan to live long, you have a plan, and proactively pursue it with daily lifestyle habits like eating and exercise, meditation and the like. These behaviors are common knowledge, yet we know for many, it is not common practice. And even those who practice daily healthy lifestyle habits can still miss out on what it means to truly live a quality, joyful, successful, fulfilling and meaningful life. This is why knowing tools for longevity is not enough. A purpose for longevity is what we need. If there's no reason for you to pursue longevity, your behaviours towards it won't last long or be effective enough. Now Im not talking about your WHY necessarily in this discussion, rather, a purpose for life, something greater than yourself, something to live for that keeps you engaged. I refer to it as a mission, a calling. It is when you are inspired daily and tuned in on that mission or purpose that gives life meaning. And when you have that purpose, you want to live as long as you can and much more likely to live longer and better. Its the quality of life that counts, not how long you live!. So when it comes down to it, a purpose for longevity makes for a meaningful pursuit of longevity and you can expect to live longer and better with that purpose in mind!~
