One of the Secrets of the Most Successful!
Good health, proper nutrition, and fitness are important for everyone, but as a practitioner in the healthcare field, your patients hold you to a higher standard (it’s a matter of perception). More importantly, they are essential to your personal and professional success.
We all have the same 24 hours in a day, but some people have much more energy than others.
That energy level is what determines how productive you are during those 24 hours, and it’s proper nutrition and fitness that determine if you are one of those people with all that energy.
The most successful individuals know this well, and many credit their success, in part, to having the energy and stamina to accomplish so much with each day!
The following are the top energy drains. How many of these are zapping your energy level every day?
• Skipping breakfast
• Alcohol
• Caffeine
• Ineffective or no exercise
• Eating only three meals a day (vs. five–six small meals)
• Boredom
• Dehydration
A depleted energy level will dramatically limit your productivity. If you are eating right and exercising properly, you should be able to get up at 6:00 a.m. and remain productive, with mental clarity, until about 9:00 p.m.
As Coach Vince Lombardi said, “Fatigue makes cowards of us all.”
If you are feeling mentally and physically sluggish during the day, you will avoid tackling important business activities and confronting difficult or complex issues, which will only make them worse later on.
To make the breakthroughs you need to ramp up your business success, you need to sustain your energy level.
If you don’t take care of yourself physically, you can’t do it.
Moreover, if you typically get home with little energy left for your family, you’re in no condition to ramp up your personal satisfaction either.
It’s an old adage: “If you keep on doing what you’ve always done, you’ll keep on getting what you’ve always got.” Do something different so you get something significantly better!
