Forget Your Age

Now, pause for a moment. Say to yourself, 'I - this person sitting here - I can be one hundred years old.' Say it aloud. Listen to your words. Repeat them.

This idea is new to you. Is is a new kind of thinking. Take your time with it. Accept the idea of living to be one hundred. In imagination, extend your life forward, far into the future. Figure out what the calender year will be when you are one hundred. Think what the world will probably be like, what new, interesting, unheard-of things probably will be happening. Say to yourself, 'I shall be alive then. I can be alive in the year___'

Accept those years. They are yours. This is not wishful thinking or idle daydreaming. It is simple acceptance of scientific fact. Science has increased your life span beyond wildest expectations.

You can live one hundred years. This means that whatever your present age is, you are young.

Suppose you are forty-five. Heretofore you have been saying to yourself, 'I am forty-five.'

But now that you have been told that you will live to be one hundred, you are saying to yourself, 'I am only forty-five'

What happens?

You begin to feel young!

It is an established scientific fact that all living creatures can live seven to fourteen times as long as the time required to attain maturity. Man attains maturity at the age of twenty; therefore he should live one hundred and forty years.

A man of sixty or seventy is still young. He has lived only half his natural life. Old age can be treated just as other illness because what we are accustomed to regard as normal old age is actually an abnormal, premature phenomenon.

But to live long without growing old - how can that be done?

From the dawn of recorded history, mankind has sought the fountain of youth.

You are as young as your glands, some scientists have said.

I believe that I am one of those lucky ones.

I believe that you are as young as you look, feel, think, hope, believe and act. And I believe that the way you look, feel, think, hope, believe and act depends on three things:

1. Good food


2. A strong, vibrant body


3. An adventurous spirit

In short, I believe that you are as young as your diet.

The world over, scientists studying the extension of life are finding more and more evidence that the fountain of youth is good nutrition.

Passport to a New Way of Life

You are making a mistake!
Just now, you opened this blog. It is on your screen right before you: a blog by Sider Macvills, entitled Look Younger, Live Longer. You intend to read this blog like any other blog. Like an ezine or detective story.
Now that is a mistake.
The blog before you is no ordinary blog. You are looking at a passport to a new way of living. You are not just beginning to read. You are beginning a new adventure, a journey of discovery.
Like any journey, this one requires a certain amount of courage at the outset. Courage to do new things, think in new ways, entertain new ideas, some of which may surprise and startle you.
Like any journey, too, this one requires at the outset a certain amount of confidence and a sense of excitement. Confidence in the guide and in the value of the goal. Excitement at the prospect of setting forth into unfamiliar territory, of testing your own ability to grasp new concepts and accept new points of view, some of which may seem not only unfamiliar but unorthodox.
However, I promise you that like any adventure undertaken with courage, confidence and excitement, this one will reward you richly from beginning to end, every step of the way.
