New Year's Evolution: 10 Steps for Maintaining a Youthful Mind & Body – For Life

Have you noticed how some older folks have vitality, optimism and are still expanding their horizons and others do not? The secret: those inspiring folks created their future while still young by taking most or all the following steps every year. Forget resolutions this year, and instead try evolving with these simple steps. 

New Years Evolution

Your Specific Promise

Simplify an area of your life. (A new personal filing system, hire a housekeeper, downsize the house or car).

 

Invest at least 10% on your personal growth, development and training.

 

Get rid of something that no longer applies to the evolving you. (A habit of yours, a relationship, a job, that nagging sore tooth).

 

Improve your diet by eliminating something you know isn’t good for you. (If you don’t know consult with a nutritionist – there will be something!)

 

Replace that food or drink which you eliminated with something that adds nutrition to your body and enhances your well-being.

 

Do something to improve your body’s performance – toning, strength, endurance or power (Swimming, yoga, dancing, cycling, weight training, circuits, Tai Chi, aerobics, running or walking).

 

Expand your mind. Learn something new this year. (Home study, attend a class, read a book, play bridge, new hobby, teach).

 

Expand your friendships. Either deepen your relationship with someone you know or make a new friend.

 

Bury the hatchet so you don’t become a bitter older person. Forgive them and just move on – resentment is a waste of energy.

 

Take a healthy risk. Build your courage by action and maintain that passion for life (scuba dive, public speaking, travel).
