I’ve just read there are 3 personality traits that will help a person live longer and I was so glad to have read the article because I believe I have those traits. These 3 traits are organized, prudent and persistent. Being organized especially at home keeps me from being stressed. There are only 3 colors of hangers in my closet: lavender for blazers or jackets, light green for pants and the rest are black, and all hangers have rounded molds because the flat ones would belong to my husband and son. My helpers were the ones stressed with my persistence about the hangers though some of them got used to it and liked the idea. I told them that if I won’t have enough hangers for all my clothes, that would mean I already have to give away some of them. I don’t have a helper now so it is easier for me to manage my own clothes.
I had also 3 kinds of cabinets built-in at home: one in the kitchen, another beside the toilet and another inside our bedroom all with louvered door. The one in the kitchen is for different kinds of cleaning tools, beside the toilet is for detergents and other cleaners, and inside the bedroom is for shoes. That means there will never be a mix up of canned foods and soaps or cleaners at home.
One main reason for sticking to Feng Shui in my case, is to have ready general rules to follow. It has made my life a lot easier especially in deciding about the layout of pieces of furniture which I am so particular with to the point of becoming obsessed. The nice thing about letting people know I am following some Feng Shui rules is I have all the reasons to be prudent and persistent.
Those 3 traits, organized, prudent and persistent, when practiced, can become encompassing so that it would also apply to the kind of foods we eat, and the lifestyle. It would be easy to instill discipline in these areas too, and maintain the balance required for healthy living. I’m lucky to also learn about TCM which also practices the horary clock that dictates the best time to rest and eat certain foods, depending on the health status of a person.
Along with those 3 traits, not mentioned was you have to be inspired to live longer. I was ready to die due to my ovarian cyst, but I found a reason to live, and make it longer as much as I can, and that is the presence of a special child who needed someone to care for her. But because I don't want to outlive everybody, I also become persistent in reminding people to take care of their health too. Who knows, that could be a mission shared by me and Lyca, the special child.
