Have fun, be active. Ride a bike instead of driving, for example.
From Dan Buettner
Select your friendships carefully. Gather people around you who will reinforce your lifestyle.
The people you surround yourself with influence your behaviors, so choose friends who have healthy habits.
A long healthy life is no accident. It begins with good genes, but it also depends on good habits.
People who are making it to 100 live in environments where they are regularly nudged into physical activity.
Walking is the only way proven to stave off cognitive decline - it works.
Having a purpose and knowing exactly what your values are will add additional years to your life.
None of the longest-lived people ran marathons or pumped iron. They live exactly as their grandparents before them - surrounded by family and friends.
Exercise, from a public health perspective, is an unmitigated failure. The world's longest-lived people live in environments that nudge them into more movement. They don't use power tools, they do their own yard work, they grow a garden.
The longest-lived people eat a plant-based diet. They eat meat but only as a condiment or a celebration. Nothing they eat has a plastic wrapper.
