Amazing video! Do yourself a favor and watch it!



He has an amazing point. I know it doesn't usually feel like there is enough time in the day, but that's when we need to step back, plan, prioritize, and consider the message from this comic:





It seems to me like some of the things we do with the 16 or so hours we're awake every day do not serve to improve our lives. Stress, worrying over money, dealing with drama, being stuck in a job you hate, whatever is dragging you down is actively shortening your life and reducing the quality of that life at the same time. It's important to pick battles and decide what is important enough to invest energy in and what is best left alone. As Dr. Evans says, exercise is the most important thing you could add to make a big difference in your life compared to your investment in it. It's like choosing to eat a Larabar over a doughnut. You're trading in something that hurts you for something that helps you. So instead of worrying about 1000 things you can't change, use that time to get some exercise and your stress with be reduced along with all the other benefits exercise gives you!

Current research is now suggesting that it isn't only a factor of how many hours per week you're exercising that affects your health, but also the amount of time you spend sitting. So of two people who exercise 5 hours a week, one sits the rest of the time and the other sits only 4 hours a day. We're learning that the person sitting less throughout the day, even though they both exercise the same amount of time, is much healthier. So see how many hours you can not be sitting today (or tomorrow, etc) and try to beat your record!
