Cornell professor Karl Pillemer researches the wisdom that our elders (90+ years old) can teach us, he presented to Cornellians in the Jersey Shore (Cornell Club of Monmouth and Ocean!!), he shared video snippets from his Legacy Project, where he interviewed 1200 elderly people in depth about what they learned over their lives! Some of the lessons we learned: 1. live like your life is short, choose to do things that you love to do, and less of the things you don’t 2. happiness is a choice, not a condition, you have to take responsibility for your own happiness 3. aging is better than you think it is, more emotional regulation 4. live a life without regrets, say yes to more opportunities He wrote a book about it as well!! "30 Lessons for Living: Tried and True Advice from the Wisest Americans" by Karl Pillemer!! Cornellian Janie Hulse also shared The Economist’s Special Report on Ageing!!!
