I won't take time to repeat all the obvious benefits of physical exercise but will only underscore the well-attested fact that a program of regular exercise increases one's efficiency in every facet of life, including the depth and restfulness of sleep. And the time taken can be minimal; just a few minutes of calisthenics and running in place in one's room or jogging around the yard or block is often sufficient. Exercising doesn't take time. It saves time. Still, few consistently do it.

Before you wonder "Am I doing things right?" wonder "Am I doing the right things?"

Habit is the intersection of knowledge (what to do), skill (how to do), and desire (want to do).

Your most important work is always ahead of you, never behind you.

Human beings are not things needing to be motivated and controlled; they are four dimensional - body, mind, heart, and spirit.

If we overcome the pull and "get up and get at it," we will have won a victory. We have kept our own resolve. We can then move to other things, for by small means great things are accomplished. Thus, even this one small step is also in another sense a giant leap.

Doing the right things for the right reason in the right way is the key to Quality of Life!
