100 centurions gave tips to live a better life, don't get stuck in the past, be alert

To live a better life even at the age of three digits (100 years), it is very important to be optimistic. So, don't get stuck in the past. Always keep writing experiences in the diary. Do not be deprived of this wonderful art. Dance as long as you want, with all the gusto you can, always be happy and always alert so that you are aware of everything that is going on around you.
In fact, more than 100 centurions have given tips based on their experiences to lead a healthy life. Edward Toms, a 102-year-old colonel of the British Army, said that have a cheerful nature, a clear sense of humour and the ability to laugh at yourself. One should never get bored, as there are so many pleasures available that can be enjoyed. But also be in solitude from time to time.
Actress Amelia Mendel, 106, says having an interesting life doesn't make her feel old. He has great memories to talk about. Fernando Cavia, a 101-year-old winemaker, tells that they still read every day. When you read, you learn new things that spark your curiosity. You have to move forward so don't be lazy.
You should also be patient and not take the stress. 106-year-old John Urquhart tells that if possible, travel abroad. Look at other countries and the way their people live. Learn a language. He speaks German and French. He passed his A-levels in German in his 80s.
100-year-old Peter Whiteley, who was a company director, says that always keep your temper and laugh whenever you get a chance. Keep your eyes open and see what is happening around you. Do not run after money, seek small happiness.
