Many studies indicate that when people were primed to see aging in a better light, in terms of growing both physically and mentally, a definite feeling of positivity developed. This included improvements in physical strength. Boomers should remain vigorous and engaged as they age. This may readily transform the aging process for many boomers into one of not getting old or slowing down. This feeling of youthfulness becomes a process of exploration and self-discovery. Part of this process is being passionate about things that are important. Not getting old means having renewed vigor and energy for the ongoing adventure of life and the continuing process of being engaged. Additionally, having a long-lasting influence in making a difference and a sense of personal development is important.
