Whatever your age or state of health, you can move toward greater fitness, one step at a time, day after day. And, that is foundational to everything else you want!

 

And finance? Well, that's actually part of your fitness. Your total fitness is a result of your physical, emotional, mental, spiritual, financial and social well being. Don't leave anything out!

 

And what about the fun part! Make up your mind that you're going to have fun with all of this, or...guess what? You won't stick with it. Get creative and make your exercise, your learning and all of your self-development fun. Here are some tips and resources (below) to help in all of these arenas of your fabulous and getting better life.
 

The best (and most fun) resource I know of for increasing your level of fitness from wherever you are is the book called, Younger Next Year: Live Strong, Fit and Sexy Until You're 80 and Beyond. It's entertaining and informative and encouraging, so be sure and check it out. There's also a book specifically for women, and a separate book that focuses on the exercise program. Since reading that book, by the way, I have followed all of their recommendations, and I'm amazed at the benefits!

 

And for your financial fitness, check out this article I wrote on Money and Happiness, and this one called, Can Money Buy Happiness? If you're not already feeling good about your relationship with money, set your intention to get that done - these articles will help. 

 

Sound like fun? Well...that's where you get to be creative. Listen to great music, podcasts or audiobooks while you exercise, and only pay attention to the positive, encouraging and upbeat guides regarding your financial intelligence. When you're having fun, you're using more of your magnificent brain, you're more relaxed, and you will make better decisions.
