Studies show that aging is vastly unique for each individual. Chopra, in Ageless Body, Timeless Mind, points out that, "If we consider how to improve physical and mental function every day for the rest of our lives, three values emerge that must be part of everyone's intention:
1. Longevity itself, since life is a primary good
2. Creative experience, which keeps life interesting and makes us want more of it
3. Wisdom, which is the collective reward of long life
It's what we do now, routinely, that will have an affect on us in our older age. Chopra explains that it's the "Use it or lose it." philosophy. If you do a lot of problem solving in your daily work then this will be a skill kept throughout into old age. What type of skills and abilities are you doing now that will aid you later?
