Did you know that as we grow older, our character traits become more ingrained? It’s true. In fact, they become even more pronounced. For example, a sweet person becomes sweeter, while a disagreeable person becomes a real crank in old age.
So what does this mean for you today? It means that the attitudes and traits you are planting now will take root and become rigid habits later in life. Therefore, it’s important to make a commitment to live a daily life of good cheer, optimism, and gratitude. Whatever choices you make today will serve you well later in life.
Plant happy seeds and enjoy today—and many, many tomorrow.
