Own the BMW


“We chase money at the cost of health in the first half of life and vice versa in the second”...Anonymous 

Too often, we often use the term “Wealth” interchangeably with Money. There are two other forms of Wealth that are more important than Money…namely the Body & Mind. Body & Mind Wealth (BMW  for short) is the key to our personality development. However, in the speed age of today BMW is getting short changed in our quest of busy-ness.

You may ask, “Well, What do I need to do now?”…All you would need to do is this …”Spend ½ hour per day on toning up your body & another ½-hour on toning up your mind”. I can see quite a few raised eyebrows after reading the previous line. I always thought I don’t have time for exercise these due to constraints of work / family. But, all I am just going to say is this “You ought to find the time…because as they say in the Corporate world…”Priorties!!! Ladies& Gentlemen”.  The return-on-investment in building the BMW is too great & important to be overlooked.

So PLEASE cultivate an habit of physical & mental exercise. So pursue the physical wealth by activities that exercises your heart by
a)     Daily walking/Jogging
b)     Regular in the Gym
c)     Playing a outdoor game of your choice
On a similar vein, exercise your brain daily on activities other than your regular work. I would recommend
a)     Yoga
b)     Pursuing an hobby(reading, writing, speaking, dancing)
c)     Blue-skying (essentially doing nothing….Try it and you see how difficult it is!!!)

If you do enough to improve your BMW, you would be prepared enough to face the hurdles to build the last and the least important Wealth,Money.
