I took my dear old mum to Whitby at the weekend. While there, we visited one of our family friends...Lucy. Lucy is amazing - 93, immaculately dressed, lives 6 months a year by herself in a caravan on the cliffs at Whitby, and never, ever stops smiling. She loves life and is living proof that a positive mind set keeps you young, and prolongs your life.
They say a positive attitude can add 7 years to your life - well, I am now going to call it the Lucy effect.
After just 10 minutes with Lucy I felt invigorated and felt happier. Wow, now that is a powerful gift you can give someone....imagine the power if Lucy was a leader. No matter what the issue - she is deaf, losing her beloved husband and has a pacemaker - she overcomes it because she is grateful of being alive every minute on this earth. Imagine, no matter what worries you have at work, feeling grateful for the chance to change the world, even in a small way. If you think about it you have this chance everyday you work, everyday you live.....spread the Lucy Effect and make this world a better place!
