How important is good health?

Do we really care about our health? How many of us make excuses for not exercising everyday or eating poorly? And what are the two biggest excuses - lack of time and money. But do they have to be? There may never be enough time and money. Should we be comfortable being unhealthy when we know we could do better?

Living unhealthy is about values. If you look at how you spend your time and where you are currently placing your values. This can tell you where you are committed and what priorities you have. The problem may lie in your approach and beliefs.

Instead of thinking about all the things involved in living healthy, think about the outcome. What would life look like and be like if you were healthy? Would you be more active with your family? Would you have more energy? Would you be less depressed? Would you feel better about yourself?

Many of us don’t enjoy exercising and there are many foods that are not good for us but we love to eat them anyway. However, if you wake up everyday, committed to having more energy, being less depressed, feeling good about yourself, and being more active with your family, you’ll be surprised at what you will do to achieve your goal.
