Do you VALUE YOUR HEALTH?
How much do you value your Health?
Seems like an easy question, but you wouldn’t believe how many people don’t actually put any value on their Health….
Where does Health rate in your priorities?
Would you choose investing in your Health over that new pair of shoes or that night out?
Now I know these sound like crazy, random questions but its something I often think about.
For me – Health ranks near the top. I would rather invest in my health (Whether that means gym, classes, nutrition, food, time) than buy something materialistic.
Now listen…there is nothing wrong with buying yourself something or enjoying a night out with friends, but when it comes to a choice between that and you HEALTH, what would you choose??
So where is this going I hear you say?….
Well I see a lot of people “wanting” to lose weight/tone up/results and then also saying they’d love to attend a gym/class/buy a dvd/join an online program…..but they never seem to invest or they umm and ahhh it – but then in the same breath will go to starbucks 3 x times spending about £15 a week/go on a night out every weekend spending about £100+/waste a £5 here and there on meaningless stuff and eat out for their lunch (normally crappy food) a few times a week…..Im sure if you added all that up you’d see what I mean.
People say they don’t have the “money” or disposable income to be able to invest in their health and fitness, but will go out splurging on materialistic things/alcohol/ciggies…etc…..guess what, its called “Priorities”
Ruthless?? Maybe so…but you and I both know its the truth.
Ive used the word “INVEST” a lot because thats what it is….when you INVESt in your Health, you are making a commitment and showing how much you value your health, don’t see it as an expense, as this just brings negative feelings and reminds you of nasty bills you need to pay every month.
You INVEST in your home to make it nicer/better/cosy…..so why wouldn’t you invest in your health this way
Investing in your health shouldn’t be seen as a bill…its a MUST
BTW if you have done the things above – it doesn’t make you a bad person, its your life and your choices…but I ask WHY….WHY wont you value your health more??
Spending £5 (ish) on a Fitness Class that is going to get you results (in my eyes) far outweighs that large coffee at a coffee shop
Spending some ££ on an Online Program or Personal Training (in my eyes) far outweighs that pair of red shows you bought, that you cant walk in but you bought anyways and may wear once.
How much do you value your health???/
Its totally up to you what you spend your hard earned money on, but before you moan that you feel fat or that you aren’t getting the results you “deserve” then step back and take a look on what you are investing your money on.
Are you ready to make an investment in YOU and YOUR HEALTH?
Are you ready to VALUE YOUR HEALTH more?
