Motivation/ Multiple motivations? -
Frustrated with the status quo? Annual pay rises amount to a few hundred
pound but insufficient to make a change in lifestyle? And in
return for an extra 3%, you are required to do a lot more? Fed up with commuting?
Working
for a boss who tells you
how much you can earn, when you work and the length of your
holidays? Pension provision is poor? Childcare costs expensive?
Always vulnerable to redundancy with a single source of income?. Or ambitious for the future?
A realisation that what you
are currently doing wont get you to where you want to be, that your
current salaried income will
never allow you to achieve your dreams and goals? Motivated by
extra income in the short term working part time i.e. £500 -£1500 a month? Motivated
by financial independence, after a couple of years?
Plan B ?
Be Own Boss? - Will I find it more exciting to get up in the
morning, working on my own business?

to start a business part time, so that I don't have to give
up the day job. Does deciding how and when I work and how much
I earn appeal?

presents over the next decade? Am I working in a growth market at
the moment?

What is Wellness? “ The
condition of good physical and mental health, especially when maintained
by proper diet, exercise and habits.”–American Heritage Dictionary
“Wellness is about waking up every morning and having enough time,
energy and freedom to live the life you want.”
The Keys to Optimum Wellness
1 – Balance Your Diet
You need to get enough of the right foods including colourful fruits
and vegetables, protein, good carbohydrates and just enough good fats for
the taste you want. You also need vitamins, minerals and fibre from dietary
supplements to provide the nutrition missing from your diet that your cells
need for good health.
2 – Exercise Regularly
Regular exercise can help you feel and look your best. Exercise conditions
your heart and relieves stress and makes it easier to achieve and maintain
a healthy body weight.
3 – Drink Lots of Water
Your body is about two-thirds water. In an average day, you lose at
least one pint of water even without excessive sweating. To feel your best,
you should drink 6 to 8 glasses of water a day.
- Steps for Achieving Optimum
Wellness:
Have an evaluation of your personal wellness.
Identify key areas you need to impact to reach your wellness
goals.
Get recommendations from your Personal Wellness Coach.
Make a plan of action that you can commit to.
Get the ongoing support you need to stay on your wellness track for
a healthier future.
