7. Give Thanks

Those who give up the things they love doing and do well lose their purpose in life. That's why it's so important to keep doing things of value,making progress, bringing beauty or utility to others , helping out and shaping the world around you, even after your "official" professional activity ha...

Friends are the best medicine, there for confiding worries over a good chat, sharing stories that brighten your day, getting advice, having fun, dreaming...in another words, living.

Stop regretting the past and fearing the future. Today is all You have. Make the most of it. Make it worth remembering.

There is passion inside you, a unique talent that gives meaning to your days and drives you to share the best of yourself until the very end. If you don't know what your ikigai is yet, as Viktor Frankl says, "your mission is to discover it".

Less is more when it comes to eating for long life, too. According to the 80 percent rule, in order to stay healthier longer, we should eat less than our hunger demands instead of stuffing ourselves.

Being in a hurry is inversely proportional to quality of life. As the old saying goes, "Walk slowly and you'll go far." When we leave uregency behind, life and time on new meaning.

A cheerful attitude is not only relaxing - it also helps make friends. It's good to recognise the things that aren't so great, but we should never forget what a privilege it is to be in the here and now in a world so full possibilities.

Though most people live in cities these days, human beings are made to be part of the natural world. We should return to it often to recharge our batteries.
