The first principle
Find your ‘why’
Understanding your ‘why’ is essential for maintaining motivation as you pursue a healthier lifestyle, especially as you age. This personal motivation provides a deep-rooted reason to adhere to a healthy lifestyle, such as staying active to enjoy time with grandchildren or maintaining independence. Knowing why you’re committing to these goals helps to navigate challenges and sustain your efforts, even when obstacles arise. It transforms your health journey into a meaningful endeavor aimed at enriching your life and ensuring you can participate fully in cherished moments with loved ones. Your “why” serves as a powerful anchor, keeping you focused and driven towards your health and wellness aspirations.
If you were asked the question, “What’s your why?”, how would you answer? What is important to you? What aspect of your life would you miss the most if it was no longer an option? What are the things that bring you the most amount of joy?Â
