Some friends a few years older than me are recently talking about early retirement so that they can focus more on their well-being. People are always busy with work, family and/ or other commitment in life and their own well-being seems to come last. I asked my friends, 'if you can't focus on your own well-being now, what makes you think that you would be able to do that after you're retired? There might still be other commitment getting in the way.' Therefore, you should put yourself first starting now.
Age doesn't determine how fit you ought to be because you can be at your best shape at any age. Older people believe that their health is on decline because they're 'getting older'. Have you heard of the Iron-nun? The 80-year-old nun who has completed number of triathlon and ironman races and she only started training at 49. She can easily be fitter than any youngsters because she's put in lots of hard work and she doesn't limit her ability with her age!
Think about what kind of life you want to live and what you need to do to achieve that lifestyle, and take action NOW! It's never too late if you are willing to make a difference. You will be stunned by how much you can achieve at any age if you put in hard work. Also, incorporate your favorite activities and food into your training routine, and often mix things up to make training more enjoyable. It's all about YOU and you ought to be the best!
Be Your Best,
Joey

Honor Yourself
Honor Yourself
Our power is infinite, if we are ever willing to, we sure can shape our lives. If we are determined, anything is possible. Somehow we fear to be different because it feels lonely to not to be one of them. Hence, we shud off the chances of creating something grand, in order to blend in with the ordinary. Right now, at this very moment, do something different to stimulate your mind and be EXTRAORDINARY.
Be DISCIPLINED - because discipline is freedom. When you are disciplined, that's when you actually start to live freely and by following your heart rather than being a slave to your mind. We shall get the best possible for ourselves, which need not to be luxurious but best suitable for our needs.
Be BRAVE - embrace your unique qualities and be proud of being YOU. There is only one person who looks like you in the entirely world and that is YOURSELF. Even twin siblings have different pesonalities. Spend some time to introspect and find out what qualities do you hold, your loves and passions, your strengths and weaknesses and develop from there.
Be CONSISTENT - we surely experience setback in life, yet those who arise from it come out stronger. Be consistent with your work, be it your fitness training or daily work performance. Set a higher bar and you will achieve more.
Be SELF-ASSERTIVE - from time to time we seek advice, but don't blindly follow. We listen to advice but we should also be selective. Don't let certain comments shake your confidence and trust your intuition. After all, only you know what you are doing.
We all have the power to better ourselves, sometimes we just need a little push. Start to honor yourself NOW. Hope you enjoy the article.
