What do you imagine about being in 40s? For example, anti-aging, aging, wrinkles, blemishes, gaining weight, white hairs, and so on. You might have negative images of problems especially for women.
Recently, many women are beautiful and look younger than their ages, and some are obviously trying hard to make them look young. However, aging is a natural phenomenon and you really need to make effort and spend some money to stay look young. There seems to be a limit to what you can do. So, let’s think about ways to enjoy life from your 40s without making you look young.
How to enjoy life from 40s as you are!
-Already 40s or still 40s
We are likely to say “I am in 40s already” with a sigh and feel negative. However it is same as a famous story of a glass of water, your motivation differs whether to think “there is only a little water left” or “there is still some water left”.
To end the life with anger or with laughter is also the same. You only live once, so why don’t you spend time with laughter? Rather than thinking “I am already in my 40s”, think “I am still in 40s, I can have more fun!” makes you feel happy.
-Abandon jealousy
Women are likely to have jealousy. If you see someone younger and more beautiful than you, you try to compete against her or say rumors about her. Your mind is hung up with her and you would realize your mind and face is getting ugly.
Abandon jealousy at once. Always keep in mind “she is she, live and let live” and get rid of your ugly thoughts. There is no winning or losing in this matter, or saying rumors don’t solve anything. Be broad-minded and you can become a true grownup woman.
-Be as you are
Every time you look into a mirror, you think how you can be like when you were young, it is not the body shape you wanted to be, and feel desperate to return to how you looked before. But think about it. Your style and face probably were beautiful when you were young, but it is you of the past and not present.
Living on memory of past is not smart thing to do. To live now, accept who you are now rather than looking back to the past. Who has survived the past is what you are now, and it is a different person from the past. Accept who you are, and love your present.
-Think only about fun things
Life is full of fun as well as sadness and difficulties. When getting over with hard things, small joy turns to a big joy. Not only waiting for fun things, but you can make them or increase them by yourself.
Instead of dwelling on sadness, accept it as sadness and change mind. Once you have organized your mind, do many enjoyable things. Just spending pleasant days make you feel refreshed and get rid of sadness. You can also improve immunity and can acquire healthy body and skin.
-Don’t compare with others
As there is a saying “blue are the faraway hills”, we tend to compare ourselves with others. “She looks happy and energetic but why am I like this?” Comparing with others and be harsh on yourself. However, people live their life and they are completely different person from you. Your lives may seem the same, but totally different.
We compare without notice, but it is irrelevant thing. Environment, how we are raised, incomes…no one is exactly the same. Stop comparing with others and frown.
-Fix saying habit
Don’t you have a habit of saying negative phrases such as “anyway” or “not good”? It is difficult to notice your own habit. As you say negative words, your feeling becomes negative as well.
We usually realize our saying habit when pointed out by others. Once we think about it, it becomes clear that we are saying it many times. If you can’t notice by yourself, ask friends and family. If it was a negative word, be conscious and try to fix it from today.
-Don’t worry about getting older
As you get older, aging is a natural phenomenon and you can’t avoid it. Still, you want to be beautiful, young and try to maintain young as possible by trying many things. However, doing too much for your real age make you look unnatural.
There are beauties appropriate for all ages, so feeling strong worries about aging is not natural. Your face refers the way you live. Making look young is not always beautiful. Please find good style and ways of life in your own way.
