I'm listening to Anita Moorjani's second book, What If This Is Heaven?
It has powerfully reminded me of something I've written about before, but this message is the cornerstone of all of health, and frankly happiness in all of life. So unless we're enjoying perfect health and a miraculous life, there's something here for each of us.
Some people seem to have it. They're really good at working out consistently, eating healthy, doing the right things for their health... and it seems natural and effortless for them.
Most of us are not in that camp. I certainly have never been the sort of person to be super motivated to work out. And hardly EVER have I had the willpower to stick to a food "regimen" for more than 3-4 weeks.
Never. EVER.
Last week we talked about life goals and how they’re intrinsically tied to a healthy lifestyle.
Most of us get on the healthy-lifestyle bandwagon when our bodies start breaking or complaining (show of hands? Me.) There’s another breed of folks, the high-achieving superstars, who just know that stellar health is critical for excellence in life... and they get after it.
It’s hard to thrive in life if the body is struggling.
Today I present to you the idea that the pursuit of any goal in life must start with cultivating your health.
What do you focus on?
Are you focusing on how the world is going to hell in a hand-basket? Or how so many things in your life are not -yet- what you want them to be?
