The Five Traits That Make You Live Longer Include Positivity and Stubbornness

Want to live a long life?  Apparently you just need to move to the country, start being more positive, and stop compromising.  So . . . easy?

A new study looked at people who were at least 90 years old to try to figure out what traits they had in common . . . which might mean those traits are tied to living a longer life.  And here are the five main ones they found . . .

1.  A positive, optimistic attitude.

2.  Stubbornness.

3.  A strong work ethic.

4.  Living a rural life, and loving it.

5.  A strong connection with your family and religion.

The researchers say those are SO powerful that they can even overcome genetics.
