Here are 10 tips to keep yourself in balance:
1. Exercise. A well-rounded fitness routine
includes strength training, aerobic conditioning, and flexibility.
Critical to your success in staying balanced is to make
exercise a TOP PRIORITY in your life - and staying committed
to it. Being fit helps you to enjoy life. It increases mental
sharpness and physical endurance. An energized body helps
give you a positive outlook on life, plus you look great,
feel great, and reduce your risk of disease.
2. Drink 8-10 glasses of water a day. Water
helps transport vital nutrients, regulates body temperature,
eases digestion, keeps joints supple, cleans out your body,
keeps skin healthy and young. Not drinking enough leads
to dehydration, resulting in headaches, fatigue, dizziness,
constipation, and foggy memory.
Not drinking enough water can lead to excess water weight,
because our bodies will store water outside our cells. That's
where you feel bloaty and heavy. Water helps the liver do
its job more efficiently, namely in metabolizing fat. If
you're not consuming enough water, your liver has to work
overtime with its other primary function: detoxifying the
body.
Water helps maximizes the liver's efficiency of both jobs,
so you keep your insides clean, your weight healthy, and
get rid of fat.
3. Life is perfect, even if you don't think it
is. God deals you a hand every day. What you get
is what you get. Your job is to do the best you can with
the hand you're dealt. That doesn't mean you have to "lie
down and play dead." What can you do better to make
your life MORE perfect? Know that you can create your dreams,
no matter how difficult life can be at times.
4. Feel the fear and do it anyway. Helen
Keller once said, "Life is either a series of adventures,
or it is nothing." We all have this shield of armor
that protects us from some aspect of life. This shield is
your comfort zone. And that comfort zone is a haven for
disintegration. When you take off this armor, the only thing
you're risking is GROWTH, a wonderful life, high energy,
and a leaner body.
5. Be a daily visionary. Visualize your
goals and your dreams - every day. Take a five-minute break
from your computer, stop off on the side of the road in
between sales meetings, and create a motion picture on the
screen of your mind of your goals, your dreams, of how you'd
like your life to be. Visualize yourself already in possession
of your wishes.
6. Feed your body well. Your diet can
help prevent illness and disease. Some 300,000 deaths per
year are a result of poor lifestyle choices, and nutrition
habits is one of those poor choices. 1) Eat at least 5 servings
of fruits and veggies a day, 2) Eat at least 4 balanced
meals a day, 3) Eat a variety of fruits and veggies - in
different colors. These colors will give you a greater spectrum
of valuable disease-fighting nutrients.
7. Live in the present. Yesterday's gone.
Tomorrow never comes. Be fully present each moment and free
yourself from the ball-and-chain of yesterday and tomorrow.
Everything is always in the present moment, so live it fully.
8. Live with integrity. You talk the
talk, but can you walk the walk? Being in integrity means
you really are who you appear to be. How you live your life
is reflected in your commitments, your values, your beliefs,
your sense of right and wrong. When you live in harmony
with what you believe in, you have peace and happiness flowing
into your life.
9. Develop high self-esteem. You already
know how you benefit from a high self-esteem. People who
you care about benefit, too. Let go of your emotional baggage,
treat yourself with respect. Your attitude - how you think,
feel, and act - mirrors how you feel about yourself.
10. Live respectfully. You are NOT at
the mercy of your circumstances. George Bernard Shaw said,
"The winners in life look for the ideal circumstances,
and if they cannot find them, THEY MAKE THEM." Are
YOU letting your present results and circumstances control
YOU? Are YOU making things happen?
