Protect your health like it’s a job you love

Disney Leadership authors
Grammarly, a writing app, provides users with three key weekly metrics. Imagine a health app doing something similar. Would we install it?

 

Protect your health like it’s a job you love.

PS. Even in jobs we love, there are parts that can be boring, painful, unmotivating, repetitious, and tempting to abandon.

Which makes the first sentence worth rereading.

You know how people can tell if you’re committed to wellness?

Disney Springs
Disney Springs yesterday.

 

Disney movies
We watched A Wrinkle In Time yesterday at Disney’s AMC Theater complex at Disney Springs.

 

Let your wellness light shine brightly.

You are a beacon for others.

You are so deserving of the vibrancy you feel.

You find solace in your commitment to over-focus on your wellness compared to the way you used to under-focus on it, or ignore it completely.

You know how people can tell if you’re committed to wellness?

The same way people can tell if a business is committed to their wellness.

Metrics.

Basic business measurements.

In this case, it’s health metrics instead of business metrics.

The basics..

Resting heart rate.

Cholesterol.

Triglycerides.

Blood pressure.

Touch your toes.

How many pull ups, push ups, and sit ups can you do?

Walk 4-5 flights of stairs – how soon does your heart rate return to normal.

Do you lose your patience easily?

What are the main beverages you consume daily?

Do you use a snooze button to wake up?

How many calories do you get daily from processed foods?

How many grams of sugar do you consume daily?

How much water do you consume daily?

When was the last time you exercised consistently for five continuous years?

The list goes on and on.

You get the picture.

i never mentioned weight.

Why would i?

It doesn’t matter what a person weighs..

What matters are answers to the questions here.

Hope, care, cure

Mission statement
Random moment walking through an airport yesterday.

 

Mission statement
That goal. Your goal? Lifelong remission from exercise?

 

Bold goal.

Lifelong remission.

For cancer, it’s a God-send.

For exercise, it’s a premature death sentence.

Clarity comes only through deep self-reflection.

Note: Sometimes clarity arrives in the form of a severe wake-up call.

Education is a dance of comfort and discomfort

college walking tour
Walked 10 miles day one, and walked 5 miles yesterday.

 

Education is a dance of comfort and discomfort.

That’s what the assistant admissions director said.

It makes sense.

And it’s a context-neutral insight, meaning it applies to everything and everyone.

For example…

Wellness is a dance between comfort and discomfort.

Think about it.

And more importantly, do something about it.

Go.

Eat like you mean it

Healthy lunch
Yesterday’s lunch.

 

Eat like you mean it.

We all have to decide what’s worth defending.

For example, our health as we age.

And then we have to decide how hard we’ll work, how much longer we’ll work at it, and what we’ll do to change our daily habits that are driven by temptation and lack of focus (read weakness).

Go.
