Prosper As A Dad…

You think so? 

Ok, let’s do a quick, simple healthy man test…ready?

Get up out of your seat, find a wall and stand straight up against it.  Now, look down at your feet.  Do you see your toes?  If you do, that’s great! 

If you don’t that means one thing:  your belly fat is blocking your view.

Let’s do one more thing.  Get a tape measure and measure your waist. 

Don’t cheat!  Start around your abdomen just above your hipbone and measure all the way around while you relax and exhale.

If your waist size more than 40 inches, you have too much belly fat.  You have to do something about this.  According to the Mayo Clinic, having too much belly fat increases your risk of many different diseases including heart disease, stroke, type 2 diabetes, and some types of cancer. 

Like I said you need to do something about this immediately.

You must become a healthy food man.

You must be a healthy eating man.

You must be a healthy, physically active man.

There are 2 natural ways to get rid of belly fat:

1.)     Reduce what you eat/eat right

2.)     Exercise more frequently

That’s it. 

I’m not going to talk about #1 today (get started on it though), but let’s talk about #2.

Your choice

It’s your choice to be a healthy, prosperous man. 

Make it a point starting today to do at least 30 minutes a day of moderate to vigorous aerobic activity for 5 days a week– that means walking briskly / jogging in addition to sit-ups, dynamic stretching, and strength training.

If you can’t get outside, walk inside your house or apartment, go up and down the stairs, get moving around consistently. 

Want to watch TV?  Get a treadmill or exercise machine and watch while you exercise. 

Don’t have time?  Make time for it early in the morning or even during / after work.

Remember, your goal is to reduce your belly fat. 

You will feel better and at the same time reduce your risk of health problems. 

Most importantly, though, you’ll be a more healthy man and a prosperous family dad who can see his toes.

I’m not going to talk about how the obesity rate is where it is and increasing in epidemic proportions. 

Not even going to mention the fact that less and less people are exercising or about the multibillion $ per year in health care costs that it produces.

Nope.  Not going there.

Why?

Because this is all about bringing you & maintaining prosperity – not only for you the family dad, but for those you love and follow your example – from your family to your friends and those you touch.

The question is:  how can you prosper with your health and in turn prosper the health and wellbeing of those close to you?

Remember this…

There is nothing worse than doing nothing.

As you know (and this pretty much is a universal starting point for succeeding at anything), prosperity with your health begins with doing something – anything. 

As a matter of fact, doing anything that is an action verb and ends with “ing” works. 

Use your imagination, but mine include walking, lifting weights, running, dancing to all kinds of music, boxing, and so on.

Yes, walking with the family, going white water rafting, playing tennis (even if it means with your Wii system), or going snowboarding are all beneficial.

So, after reading this, just get up and get going.

What you want to do is perform actions that can become good habits.These habits will help you and others stay away from the sofa. 

They will yield the results you really want & need –to continually prosper and, yes, increase good health at epidemic proportions.
