Overcoming Ageism: 3 Strategies for Living Life on Your Own Terms

from Growth Mindset Psychology: The Science of Self-Improvement · host Sam Webster Harris | Growth Mindset Psychology

We don't stop playing because we grow old, we grow old because we stop playing. The secret to peace is found in examining our troubles. With so much stress and business in our lives, we feel like we are constantly behind. Every year we see our failures and regret our losses and need to swap our negative thoughts for a positive mindset.  Aging should not be a reason to smile less and worry more. Every year is a new adventure to enjoy and savor for what it is.   - - - Connect with Sam: Join the social podcast app - Podvine Sam's newsletter on creativity - Explosive Thinking  - - - Chapters: 00:00 - Introduction 01:10 - Why we are frustrated about aging 02:44 - Not panicking about death 05:20 - Our changing abilities 07:03 - Preventing expectations 09: 10 - Enjoying the moment Learn more about your ad choices.
