You’re alive. The alternative to aging is not being alive so, right away, gratitude. We’re doing alright. We’re still in the game.” “Purpose does not come from passion; passion comes from purpose. Think about how you can help other people; maybe they’re people close to you, maybe they’re people far away.” “You need a gang. Life is a social activity, and filling our lives with people that we care about, with people that care about us — you don’t need a lot but you need that core group. If you don’t have that, become a joiner, say yes, see what you can do about upping your posse value.” “Get up in the morning, look in the mirror, and you say to yourself, ‘I am an athlete’ no matter what condition your body is in, and then behave as an athlete would behave.” “40% reduction in all-cause mortality if you sit in a sauna that’s at least 170 degrees for 20 minutes 3 times a week. There are very few things you can do with that amount of time that has that level of effect.” “We can do incredible things at this age.” Listen to the SuperAge podcast wherever you get your pods.
