A 50-year long study suggests that men and women who are physically active, emotionally calm, and organized may live longer than people with less positive personality traits such as anxiousness, anger, or fearfulness.  Researchers from the National Institute of Aging (Maryland, USA) assessed personality traits among 2,359 generally healthy people who enrolled in 1958 in the Baltimore Longitudinal Study of Aging.  The team found that those men and women who scored above average in measures of general activity, emotional stability, or conscientiousness lived an average of 2 to 3 years longer than those who scored below average. 

Stay active and energetic, emotionally stable, and organized, disciplined, and resourceful.  Not only are these the traits of professional and personal success, they might also help add years to your life.
