TIPS
Listen to your body. This is extremely important — if you feel like you’re overdoing it, you probably are. Rest and allow your body to recover. And though you can run through some slight soreness or aches, you should stop as soon as you feel sharp pain or pain in the joints. You’ll just make it worse.
Strength is good. If you’re a walker or runner or cyclist or swimmer or something like that, you should also fit some strength training into your schedule. Nothing too intense, but just some core-strengthening exercises that will help your main sport as well as make you healthier and yes, more attractive.
“A man’s health can be judged by which he takes two at a time – pills or stairs.”
-Joan Welsh
Theme – adaptation
Definition- an adapting or being adapted; a change in structure, or form that improves the chance of survival for an animal or plant within a given environment; the natural reactions of a sense organ to variations in the degree of stimulation; a gradual change in behavior to conform to the prevailing cultural patterns.
Thoughts on Theme-The natural inclination of beings are to do what comes naturally. This natural action comes from natural or common thoughts. These common thoughts stem from the collections of perceptions of the environment and one’s interaction with this environment. If adaptation is the desire, then one must change the environment, the interaction with the environment, or the perception of the environment.
“All men (women) that are ruined are ruined on the side of their natural propensities.” -Edmund Burke, 1729-1797

positive percecption
It’s not what happens, it’s what you pay attention to and the way you interpret what happens that dictates your happiness response. Dark rain clouds mean happiness to a farmer whose fields are parched, but to the mother of the bride at a garden wedding they mean something quite different. One group of clouds: two opposite emotional interpretations.
You can’t wait for positive experience opportunities to grab you. You have to seek them and make yourself as open to ready to see them as you possibly can.
