I can go on and on here about all the health related benefits
of working out and eating right. But the truth is you already
heard or read about all these good things. So, I won? bore
you with what you already know.
What I do want to share with you are the benefits that
you won? see on a scale, in the mirror or in the results
of your next medical exam. What I? talking about is the
priceless influence you will have on others who are close
to you such as your children, parents, friends, co-workers
and employees (if you are a business owner).
By choosing to live a fitness lifestyle, and actively expose
me to it, my father was imparting wisdom on me that would
beneficially influence his descendants for generations to
come. Pretty smart guy, wouldn? you say?
There were other factors that contributed to my desire
to lead an active & healthy lifestyle. As a kid, I was
able to see the difference between how my father looked
and how other people in his age range, who did not take
care of themselves, looked. The difference was staggering.
And, when it came to physical abilities. Forget about it!
He could do things by himself that would normally require
three or four out of shape & unhealthy people to get
done.
I knew exactly what kind of shape I wanted to be in when
I grew up.
In essence, my father was leading by example. And, not
only did I learn from his example, but so did my brother
and sister. They are both committed to exercising and eating
right (most of the time).
This brings me to some of those secret benefits I mentioned
earlier. Our kids now watch us workout and eat healthy.
The same things that happened to me as a kid are happening
to the next generation. Our kids want to use the home gym,
do stretches and floor exercises, and eat nuts and fruit
for snacks instead of candy and cookies (most of the time).
Here is my point in all of this. By taking care of himself
my father was taking care of his kids and his grandkids.
And, you can believe that his great grandchildren will benefit
as well.
What better gift can one pass down than the desire to lead
a healthy lifestyle and the enhanced quality of life that
goes with it? There is nothing better.
In addition to influencing your children, this same mechanism
can and also does apply to friends, parents, co-workers
and employees (if you are a business owner). I?e seen this
happen with many of the clients I have worked with over
the years.
The reasons are many but the end result is still the same.
Your healthy way of life will inspire others around you
to take better care of themselves through a healthier life
style.
The moral of this story is: By leading a lifestyle built
around physical fitness and smart nutrition, you may be
taking care of a lot more people than just yourself.
