Chapters

Just like you measure progress in your business, how are you measuring your progress in all areas of life, especially your health? I'm here at the Arrowhead Track High School track neighboring town of mine. Just did my first mile time trial in years, probably more than a decade. Not since I did my Ironman training and I'll have 550. I will take a 550 mile time trial as I'm about to turn age 47. So very happy with that. But what are you doing to push yourself? Don't get complacent. As we get older, health becomes even more important. Just like you are constantly looking to upgrade things in your business to make more money, you've got to do the same thing with your health. Do not let it slide. As you get older, keep progressing. Age is only a number. If you take care of your health.
