To achieve anything, you must first define "it"

---

So many people talk about achieving good health, but in what aspect... nutrition, exercise, mental clarity, longevity?

---

We all know people that ate clean "healthy diets" and died young. We know exercise fanatics that died young, in fact we all know those folks that work their entire life doing all the "Right Things", yet have serious health issues develop anyway.

So What Gives

---

Health is our interpretation of our exposure to life. It is what we personally interpret as "good" individually... what are the numbers?

• Your Weight
• The Weight you can lift
• Your age
• How far you can run
• Are you on medication
• Vegetarian vs. Carnivor

You see these numbers are difficult to quantify health, I know fat people that are more robust than skinny people, I know some people in their 70's - 90's that are vibrant as well as those in their 30's that look and act 90. I know vegitarians that are always catching colds where meat eaters do not.

Health may be summed up as enjoyment

If you are happy and enjoying your life, then that may just be what health really is.

As no one can pin down another individuals inner body, we can rule out medical approaches. If as example a vegetarian always has colds or other medical issues, we could rule out dietary approaches. If the consummate runner in “peak physical condition” drops of a heart attack at 40, (Jim Fix), then physical condition is not true health either.

Health is when you enjoy life and all it's wonder

Here's to yours!
