The Priceless Legacy Company released today the results of its research study into the Top Five Life Lessons of Seniors.
The Priceless Legacy Company is in the business of turning “regular people” into published authors. The company does this by working a Life Story creation process that turns a two hour interview and up to one hundred photographs into a beautiful hard-bound biography.
Each quarter, the company publishes the results of an anecdotal review of many of its published stories. These “life lessons” are drawn from specific Life Stories but enjoy universal applicability.
This list includes the following five observations from Life Story writers from age 65 to 104.
1. The simple things matter most.
2. Humor and time cure most pains
3. There is more satisfaction in giving than getting. Service to others is the most satisfying activity.
4. Choose your spouse carefully. It will be your most important decision.
5. Work hard and in a field or role that you enjoy.
“Of course, there are other themes too” said Peter A. Gudmundsson, CEO and Founder of Priceless Legacy. “But these are the topics that emerge time and time again.”
The company will continue to mine this rich vein of narrative stories for similar nuggets of wisdom.
