Belief in Control of One’s Destiny Tied to Healthier Lifestyle
Reviewed by John M. Grohol, Psy.D. on September 17, 2012
"A new study by Australian researchers discovered that those who believe they have control of their destiny have a healthier lifestyle than those who believe in “luck” or “faith.”
In the study, researchers from the Melbourne Institute of Applied Economic and Social Research analyzed data on the diet, exercise and personality type of more than 7,000 people.
They discovered that those who believe their life can be changed by their own actions ate healthier food, exercised more, smoked less and avoided binge drinking."
