Signs that you are making yourself grow old

Sometimes people grow old of their own accord, albeit unconsciously…

Sometimes we age faster in our souls than in our bodies. And we don’t even notice…

…If in society there is an unspoken rule about the age of old age – for example, after 50 years a person is considered an old man – if in a family people were considered old after their grandchildren were born, if someone who retired or lost the ability to give birth to children was considered old, the person adopts this installation. Without even thinking about it. And he begins to age rapidly.

Moreover, the person takes actions to turn into an old man. You know how young actors portray old people in movies? They are hunched over. They give up helplessly. They walk with a shuffling gait, right? They speak in a weak, rattling voice. They give the face an old look. And they dress in old clothes.

They themselves transform in appearance. And they play the role of old men and women perfectly. And in society it was customary to dress up. Taking off bright dresses and embroidered shirts, women put on a dark scarf, an apron with sleeves that covered the dress, clothes were chosen in gray and dark colors, so that it was immediately clear that this was an old woman. Or an old man. They no longer need anything from life. They are living out their life.

And these attitudes are alive in our subconscious. There are signs that indicate: you have begun to turn yourself into an old man or an old woman.

The philosopher Seneca defined old age as “fatigue.” Old age is not decrepitude; decrepitude comes much later. Fatigue from life, the desire to stop vigorous activity, complaints about fatigue, that “everything is tired” – this calls for old age. And the aging program is activated. Complaints of fatigue – descent into old age.

A person stops buying new beautiful clothes, doesn’t follow fashion, and doesn’t care what to wear. He is inclined to wear out the old, and so it was among the people. Why spend money on beautiful new things, look how many old ones there are. They need to be conveyed.

The person is not concerned about his attractiveness. He stops taking care of himself. Why does an old woman need a figure and fresh skin? This doesn’t fit the role. Why manicures, massages, diets, exercises? It makes no difference whether someone likes you or not.

On the contrary, no one needs to please an old person. Unless with his moral qualities. And the appearance must be hidden or slightly disfigured, as in “The Legend of Narayama” a young woman knocked out her teeth. She needed to turn into an old woman.

A person denies himself entertainment and pleasure. Why go somewhere, walk, jump, admire new things, organize holidays? It’s too much. It’s better to sit on a bench, gossip, stay at home in front of the TV, and save money.

Mindless hoarding is also a call to old age. A person stops spending money on himself, only on what is necessary. And he saves every penny – the money depreciates. Sometimes he himself cannot explain what a person saves for. And then he realizes that he is saving for a funeral. And he tries to leave something for his heirs, without thinking about himself.

And in speech a person often uses the words: “I’m already old!” At first he even says this flirtatiously. But words trigger the aging program. The attitude: “I’m already old. Dear organism, start aging quickly, it’s time!” And those around him see the man as old – he said so himself. Although they may ardently dissuade you, this is common politeness…

Saying “I’m old” is the same as saying “I’m sick.” An attitude is formed for the body, which obediently obeys the command.

A person stops living his life. He is more interested in the lives of others, sometimes complete strangers. He heatedly discusses other people’s personal relationships, rummages through other people’s underwear with morbid curiosity, condemns, savors, begins to continuously read the “yellow press” and watch various “talk shows” with frank and unnecessary details.

I want to peek and look. Discuss and condemn. To gossip. And the more you look at someone else’s personal life, the less you look at your own. And then there is nothing left…

The person stops following the voice. He speaks either pitifully, in a whining voice, or in a croaking, irritated, angry voice. The melody of speech is lost, smoothness and beauty disappear. Whining, whimpering, moaning intonations, irritated hoarse speech – they also indicate the beginning of aging. To activate the old age program.

And all these things are in our will and in our hands! You need to understand, realize that you are forming an attitude, have fallen under the power of the “old age program”, and have begun to play the role of an old man. We need to stop. And track your actions and thoughts, your words and attitude towards money.

Because decrepitude is still a long way off! And there are no two real causes of aging: illness and terrible deprivation.

And the rest largely depends on us and our environment. If they persistently try to instill in you the idea that you are old, look at why they are doing it. And who is saying this? They are deliberately trying to deprive you of your strength. Or plunge into slavery and hopelessness.

But no one can do this better than ourselves. We are aging ourselves. Therefore, let us increase our attention and vigilance. And we will change internal installation.
