| So yesterday I was found out that one of my ex-clients had a stroke(actually his 3rd one)...That information really concerned me, in fact extremely irritated me. He was a hard working family man with three kids he put through college and working towards his retirement in a few years, now he has to be in constant care and barely has feeling one side of his body. Fortunately, it was a MILD stroke(whatever that means; some medical terminology used to reduced the seriousness of the matter) and he is making a recovery. This situation is one that a significant amount of people who are reading this are heading toward. Yeah I said it...You know exactly who I am talking about: the guy who puts work before his health, working over-time to make yourself financially stable while your waistline is getting bigger as we speak, or the young lady who thinks that my bigger hips camouflage those extra pounds and "besides guys like that anyway", or the middle aged person who figures its too late to start now. NEWSFLASH...the extra money you make now would be lost when you have to miss work 3-4 times a month later on in life because you are always sick,or you miss the promotion because your performance is lacking because you are always sleeping on the job, or when your hips and your waist become the same size, or it is really too late to start anything because you are in ICU as a result of a stroke. I am sure you are thinking...Yeah, but that would never happen to me, I am sure that's what the guy I was training was thinking also. Learn from the mistakes of others before its too late! It isn't about losing inches or getting stronger its about living longer and better. Are you ready to get serious? |
