The Rule of 70 is a simple guide to maximize your “Good years” and to live your best beyond 70.
Good years? What do you mean?
I mean the years of your expected healthspan. I have news for you. You may get 70 good years, you may not. But almost no one gets far past 70 without suffering radical change.
Most people, when asked to count the good years until they turn 70, react negatively. “I only have 20 good years left? That can’t be true!”
If you are 50 you can remember 20 years ago like it was yesterday. The prospect of 20 left is frightening. People instantly look to lifespan. Some argue they will be the healthy, dancing 90-year-old.
I’ll back up the rule with statistics, some of which are unpleasant. But I’ll also let you in on the biggest secret. People over 70 are happier than most adults have been since childhood.
We will also discuss why, and how you can crack the code, and be as happy as a 70-year-old today.
