You probably lead a very busy life. You work many hours and you may have family obligations and outside interests that fill your time. What you might not be doing is exercising. Not doing that may actually be harming you in the short and long term. You may feel you can’t afford the time to exercise but the reality is you can’t afford not to exercise. Maybe you should prioritize you in your schedule.

Exercise is an investment in your body, health and life, not a cost to you in time and energy. According to the Mayo Clinic regular exercise, approved by your doctor, can,
- Help control your weight, which if you have too much for too long can increase your risk of heart disease, diabetes, stroke, depression, arthritis and cancer.
- Improve your mood because physical activity stimulates chemicals in the brain that can make you feel happier and more relaxed.
- Boost your energy level and endurance.
- Promote better sleep because regular physical activity can lower stress levels, help you fall asleep faster and deepen your sleep.
- Exercise can be fun and allow you to meet new people (and potential clients). Whether you join a gym, engage in a sport or some kind of physical activity (gardening, hiking, dance) you can switch up your networking environments.
If you can fall into a bad habit (not exercising), you can also fall into a good habit (exercising). Here are three suggestions from Inc. Magazine about making exercise a habit.
