Business Entrepreneurs – How Long Since Your Last Checkup?

I was brushing my sparkly teeth just a moment ago, getting ready for bed.  As I finished up I found myself standing at the sink pondering the thought of just how important it is for us, especially busy business entrepreneurs, to take good care when it comes to our health and wellbeing.

This afternoon, after a busy day in the office, I headed off to the dentist to honour my pre-booked dental appointment.  My dentist did a good check over and clean of my teeth for me.  It had been a bit too long since I had my last check and I realized this while I was there.

It might be uncomfortable getting these types of checks, and yes, it does take up invaluable time from your day – but as I see it, it is absolutely essential to attend health checks and specialist appointments on a schedule, or as the need arises.  It is really important to your family, to your business and most importantly to yourself.  I’m sure that you have heard all the raves about how important it is to eat right and exercise.  Well guess what, this is no different.

Take care of your body, it is one of your most important assets and it will thank you for it later.

Anyway, it must be time for me to go get some shut eye now, ready for another busy day.  Oh, and before I head off to bed, maybe I should write myself a note to contact my optician in the morning to schedule an appointment!

Cheers to a long and happy life for the all of us… good eyesight, and and of course bright and sparkly teeth :)

Maintaining a Healthy Lifestyle

You might know the saying ‘Stop, Revive and Survive’. It’s a well known motto in Australia that reminds us not to drive when we are tired. It reminds us to periodically stop, have a break, stretch and maybe even stop for a coffee so that we can last out the journey.

This motto made me think of work. In particular it made me wonder how many people sit there for 12 hours a day or longer, in front of the computer without barely a break. It also made me wonder how many people work seven days, burning the candle at both ends so to speak. We can sustain for a time, but where does this leave us long term?

It is important for our health in so many ways to take a periodical break.  It could be to break for morning tea, lunch or afternoon tea.  It might be to go for a walk to the post office to post or maybe collect the mail, or to drop by the corner store to stock up on our milk supply… after all plenty of exercise and fresh air is great for an active brain!!

You are probably thinking here, but wouldn’t this mean that I would be procrastinating?
