With the world economy still in such a fragile state, stress levels continue to rise as employees are faced with the prospect of redundancies, pay cuts and the cancellation of bonuses.
Company leaders and employees work longer hours and forego their fitness regime in an attempt to rebuild and remodel a company to keep it in the black. However, if you make the decision to offer up your fitness routine as the sacrificial lamb to save on finance, you do so at your peril. Health is your most valuable asset.
A recent study came to the conclusion that when people lose their jobs, they are 83% more likely to develop a new health condition, such as heart disease or diabetes. It is therefore important to take advantage of a bad situation and turn it around to become even more productive. As the saying goes: when handed a lemon, turn it into lemonade. So if you have more free time on your hands now, make good use of it.
Develop a schedule and include exercise in it because the things that get scheduled are the things that get done. Take this opportunity to get in the best shape of your life. Don’t procrastinate, as exercise has been proven to reduce stress and improve energy levels. It will also help you be more productive and it fosters creativity.
