Philosophy, eating healthy, working & weight loss!

Allow me to be somewhat philosophical today.

Do you ever stop and think why do you work, why do you have a job or business? Why do you get up everyday?

Is it not to better your life? Is it not to have the things you want in life and provide for your family. Is it not to be healthy, eat good food and go on long vacations?

Then why are so many people working the hell out of their life! Not even taking the time to eat properly or spend with loved ones.

Are you living to work or working to live? I mean, what's the point of working if you don't even have time to eat. Did you forget why you're working in the first place? Didn't we say it was to better your life? ...and having a better life is being the healthiest you can be.

The bigger problem is we're often doing what we're not suppose to be doing. Working where we shouldn't be working and living our lives out of purpose.

You know it's much easier to quit a job then to go through chemotherapy treatments for cancer. It's also much easier to quit a job then to have a triple bypass surgery for your heart. Again, it's also much easier to switch jobs that allow you to live a healthy life then to take insulin for diabetes.

So, if you need to lose weight and you often find yourself using work as an excuse not to exercise or eat healthy again I ask you, why are you working? Is it not to better your life? ...and if work or business isn't making your life better then what's the point.

I believe that if you're in your purpose, working where you're suppose to, you don't have to work as hard nor do you have to work all the time.

But you interrupt me and say I'm doing this for my kids!

Have you ever spoken to a child who has lost their father due to severe obesity or sickness or a child whose mom cannot play with him/her because she's too tired and sickly. Do you know what it's like to have to make excuses to the other kids at school? Don't you think they deserve parents as healthy as they can be?

But you interrupt me and say you have to put food on the table, you have to pay the bills, the rent or mortgage and if not you then who else will do it!

My reply is perhaps you're doing the wrong thing. The right thing will allow you to live your life abundantly and make time for your family and health.

So again, ponder this, if you need to lose weight or better your health and you often find yourself using work as an excuse not to exercise or eat healthy, I ask you, why are you working? Is it not to better your life? ...and if work or business isn't making your life better then what's the point.

Take a bold step to better your life and health today! You owe it to you and those around you!
