The formula for success in
health and fitness is the same as the formula in personal finance: make more
deposits than withdrawals and stay away from debt. A deposit is any daily habit
or behavior that moves you closer toward getting a body and life you love. Here
are a few examples:
- Dump the stress out. Finding ways to offload worries that you can’t do anything about can help keep you focus more on what you can control.
- Healthy diet. Good nutrition has a direct impact on your overall health and quality of life. When you follow a healthy diet that consists of fruits, vegetables and whole grains, you aren’t just satisfying your hunger, you’re nourishing your body too.
- Human beings require movement to function and thrive. One of the biggest challenges we face in modern society is sedentary behavior. Taking the stairs instead of the escalator and playing with your kids are examples of micro-deposits.
