Talk about healthy living

2017 is a new year

I am absolutely going to achieve 3 things:

  • A healthier life – including losing weight (sound familiar this time of year?) Incredibly important. And never too late to start!
  • Master my time – to get the most out of what I am given
  • Meet my business goals – right up on the wall here to remind me

20 questions for the topics for these broadcasts. Check out the link to the personalized health assessment if you want to see all of the questions – and get your own results. See how you measure up going into 2017!

But today I am going to be talking about something a little different:

What are the 5 things you can start doing today to become healthier in this uncertain world?

  • Lose weight
  • Eat right
  • Go to bed
  • Exercise
  • Reduce stress
  • All of the above

If you are paying attention to the news and what is happening in our country – and you should – there are daily stories about what is happening to our healthcare system in the United States.

Some are serious discussions. Others are even fake news (the keyword of our society today). But no matter what happens it will impact us all. In one way or another.

This is not a political discussion. This is a quality of life discussion. The only thing certain is uncertainty. And that adds to all of our stress.

No matter where things end up – and no one knows where that will be – there are things that each of us can do to minimize the impact of these changes in the long run.

The good news here is that we can take charge of our lives right now – today – and it will impact our health. The health of our families. Our friends. Our community. And our country.

But it starts with each of us making a decision to take charge of our lives. No one else can do it.

All of the things mentioned above – losing weight, eating right, going to bed on time, exercising, and reducing stress – are not easy things to tackle. Otherwise we would already be doing it right?

I won’t go into each of these topics here. I have covered or will cover them in more detail. I wanted to give you a push, a nudge, to get started. Today

The best and most lasting impact will come from making small incremental changes each day. Being consistent. And not falling out when we have a lapse or two. It is going to happen. I know from experience.

But one of the best pieces of advice I heard is that when doing something constructive – like losing weight – is to focus on the long term. Change your habits gradually. And if you “accidentally” drive through Krispy-Kreme don’t beat yourself up. Just get back on track. Sort of like a GPS system for your life.

Take control of your health. It is too important to let others decide.

Conclusion:

I hope this made some sense for you
