How to Prioritize Your Health: Set & Protect Boundaries
Do not allow work travel or other obligations cause you to abandon your priorities. If you lose your health your work and those other responsibilities will suffer.
Prioritizing your health means understanding this is important to you and putting time and effort into it, even when time and effort is severely limited.
When you fail to prioritize your health, not only does your work suffer, but you will likely feel growing resentment, as you have failed to defend your goals and have your actions reflect your core values.
Prioritizing Your Health During Travel & Difficult Times
For Andrew and Niki, investing in health during travel looks like consistently getting to the gym, maintaining a habit of walking, and picking better food choices.
This does not mean two hour workouts or the same diet one might eat during a strenuous cut.
It means, however, ensuring you maintaining the habit of exercise and working toward your goals. It means attempting to get 10,000 steps. It means looking for healthier food options, prioritizing protein and fiber insofar as you can.
You cannot completely let your guard down. You cannot relax your standards with reckless abandon. This is not how you accomplish your goals long-term.
This is especially important and true if you travel regularly.
Prioritizing your health means respecting yourself, your goals, and your boundaries.
