Your Health is Not Important!

We all are trying to achieve good health.

I like to put health into 3 buckets - financial, mental, and physical.

Health is knowing you have security and being at peace from your relationship of inputs and outputs in each department.

In a perfect world, we would be able to BUILD on all three at the same time!

But time is a limited and invaluable resource that all of us are trying to hold on to.

So many of us are doing a juggling act trying to master all 3 simultaneously.

And I'm sure you can attest that it feels nearly impossible and that's why it's so important to allocate priorities and set deadlines and timeframes for those allocations.

But all three are not created equal.

One of these is actually the most important!

100 dollars

When you think of financial health, it's imperative to have - but if you were ever at a point where you had zero dollars in the bank, although it would suck you would still have an opportunity to succeed with good physical and mental health.

We see this with people who go bankrupt and lose it all, or those who were born into poverty but end up making it out on top.

If your mental health crashed down and you were in a really bad place it would be debilitating, but if you had sound financial and physical health you would have the possibility to pull yourself through.

We see this present when you lose someone or fall into a mentally dark place to later being able to find happiness and peace through therapy or exercise.

Now if your physical health was impaired and you were on your death bed, it wouldn't matter how much money or mental fortitude you had...there just wouldn't be anything to pull you out except an improvement in your physical health.

We see how famous celebrities who have all the money in the world and seem to have mental clarity, struggle when their physical health is poor.

A sick man only wants one thing, and a healthy man wants 10,000 things.

Now I'm not saying that you have to be walking around ripped out of your mind and I'm also not saying that because you have a low body fat percentage you qualify as healthy.

So many variables make up your physical health like blood work, body composition, energy, and endurance to name a few; it can't be boiled down to just one thing.

I'm defining good physical health as "rationally at peace with your security of physical health."

If you can't say with conviction your physical health is at or above a rating of 3 out of 5 - I highly recommend you start making it a priority, then once achieved you can learn how to maintain it while you grow other areas of your health like financial and mental.
