What you think, you become. What you feel, you attract. What you imagine, you create – Buddha
Recently a friend shared the Buddha quote above and then this week I received another “Newsletter” from Dr. Helena Popovic, which included an article, ‘What is ageism’. I found it a good read and in keeping with our saying, so I thought I would share. It spoke of positive thinking and attitude to ‘the ageing process’ – my words, not the good Doctor’s... I have shared the link to the article below, as I see it can potentially apply to all of us, whether young, or those of us who are ‘maturing gracefully’, we hope...
In brief Dr. Popovic made a number of interesting statements, including:-
“Ageism is an unrecognised form of discrimination that will affect all of us at some time...”;
“Every time we think or say ‘I’m having a senior moment’ or ‘I’m too old for that’, we reinforce the belief that ageing equates to decline . This contradicts volumes of research that show ageing can be a time of freedom and flourishing, rather than frailty and forgetfulness. If you come across a grumpy old person, they were probably also a grumpy young person!”...
“Eighty-five-year-old Steve went to his family physician and said, ‘Doc, my right knee is giving me some trouble. It hurts when I do squats or lunges — for instance when I kick a soccer ball or play tennis. Can you take a look and tell me what the problem might be?’ And Dr Jones replied, ‘Steve, what do you expect? Your knee is 85 years old. Of course you’re going to have aches and pains.’ To which Steve responded, ‘But Doc, my left knee is also 85 years old, and it’s good as gold!’...”
“Studies have also shown that a person’s recovery from illness or injury is driven by their own attitude to ageing — in other words, whether they see it as a time of weakness or wisdom”...
“... we tell ourselves how to grow old — whether we’re aware of it or not.” ... “How we age — whether we become feeble or fruitful, cranky or curious, tired or tenacious — is a direct result of our cultural stereotypes and self talk...”
So, let’s ‘talk’ ourselves out of getting old...
In Sales this week –
Apartment 1406 is under ‘unconditional’ contract, so therefore considered SOLD! W e would like to congratulate the Sellers and Buyers, thank the Sellers for entrusting us with the sale and welcome the Buyers to Main Beach. Congratulations also to Michelle and I, who brought the parties together!
