Well, that seems counter intuitive. I recently read an article entitled, “Never Take Health Tips from the World’s Oldest People.”

The premise of the article was that scientist are still trying to figure out why some people can live past 100 years old. And while they haven’t been able to come to a consensus, the one thing they agree on is don’t ask centenarian for health advice.

Which seems kind of strange. Most times in life, if you want to find out how to do something, ask someone who has already done whatever it is you want to do. And they will offer some helpful advice and tips.

Apparently, that doesn’t apply to those who have lived to be over a hundred. They don’t have a clue, and when they tell you they do, they are making it up.

Eating right, and exercising regularly may get you a little older, but scientist agree the two things that will take you over the 100-year mark are good luck and good genetics. The two things we have absolutely no control over.

Perhaps, instead of focusing on how to live long, we should focus on how to live well, and that’s one thing we have all kinds of control over.

Have a great week and remember: To see what is really possible, you will have to attempt the impossible.
