Busy schedules make it challenging to live a healthy lifestyle. Yet, I believe the benefits of physical fitness and proper nutrition justify your time commitment. Below are three benefits from living a healthy lifestyle:
1) Feel better.
Speaking personally, when I feel better, I am an improved husband, father, and teacher.
2) Live Longer.
There are no guarantees, but all things being equal, physical fitness and proper nutrition keep you healthier longer.
3) Increase survivability.
In a survival situation, your odds for survival are better when you're healthy. You have more options. A perfect example is my friend who was able to walk down dozens of flights of stairs in order to escape out of the North Tower on 9/11. Those who were unable to walk down the stairs perished.
Where do you start? With your doctor's help, design a healthy lifestyle specifically for you. Then start. Start small if needed, but for heaven's sake, start.
You, your family, your friends, and coworkers will all benefit.
Start now.
