… isn’t the car you drive, whether you earn more money than your neighbour, who you know, or what you know;  it is your health.  Without your health, you don’t have anything.  You won’t be able to run your company, study, travel the world, take on everything you dream of, or live your life to your fullest potential.

 

So, are you looking after yourself?

• Do you get enough sleep? Whether your body needs 3 hours of sleep or 8 hours of sleep a night, make sure you get enough sleep for your body to operate.  It is stupid to rob yourself of being able to perform at your highest level as a result of not getting enough sleep.
• Are you eating well? Watch Mark Bittman’s TED talk.  As my friend Amir said about it, “20 minutes to learn about food. It’s well worth it ; )”   Eat well.  You’ll live longer.
• Do you exercise? Regular exercise significantly increases your life expectancy, gives you more energy, lowers your health risk and helps relieve stress.  It also builds and limbers up your body and leaves your mind alert.  Great body and more energy.  No brainer.

 

Don’t wait until you’re older, for things to be stable, for you to have more money or for your body to get ill.  You’re always going to get older, things will never be stable, you can always have more money, and we all know that prevention is better than a cure.  With your health, there is no tomorrow - the time to start looking after your body is now.
