Monday Morning Motivation – Exercise

(Sharing Resources to Help You Grow Personally, Professionally & Financially)

Sometimes it helps to get a little dose of encouragement — along with a good cup of coffee! — to start the day.

Hopefully the message below will help you get off to a good start for the week.  Please feel free to forward the newsletter on to others that you think would benefit from the content.

 


Exercise


 

2017 has ended and we are at the beginning of 2018.  For the past weeks, I was stealing shamelessly from Hal Elrod’s “The Miracle Morning”.  In the book, Elrod suggests six things that you should do to start each day.  He suggests that you will be massively more productive AND happier as an individual if you take on his challenge and perform these six things at the start of each day.

I have incorporated all six into my routine – although one of them I shift to later in the day AND one of them I don’t do as regularly as I should.  And, NO, I am not going to tell you which ones these are.

Hopefully you can take away an idea or two over the next few weeks that will help you to start 2018 stronger.  Have an awesome week!


 

The previous three weeks, we focused on the mind.  This week we turn our attention to the body.

How ironic it is that the timing of today’s post coincides EXACTLY with January 1!  January 1 is well known as the “miraculous” day where EVERYONE starts an exercise program.

Facts are facts.  We all need to exercise.  And starting your day with exercise is one of the best things you can do to build a healthy body to support a healthy mind.

That brings us to this week’s question:

  • Would you feel better if you were to exercise each morning?

Thanks for sharing a bit of your time with me this Monday morning and I wish you all the best for the week.

Happy New Year!

(Note:  Each week I publish “Monday Morning Motivation” in the hopes that one person will find a bit of inspiration and that inspiration will have a positive impact on their life.  My motivation comes from experiences, reading, sermons, and discussions.)
