Just consider the irony of our
lives. We keep trying to increase
the value of all the unimportant things in our Life, instead of trying to
reduce the values (parameters) of what's most important for us to live.
We
worry ourselves to death trying to increase our wealth, our real estate, our
fame; we lust and crave for rewards and recognition, and want more and more
people to appreciate us. Even as we are doing this, we don't realize that
things more valuable than what we are chasing are also increasing in value. Our
weight, our blood pressure, our heart rate, our triglycerides, our sugar and
cholestrol. The irony: if we worked systematically to reduce the values of our
body parameters and bring them to acceptable levels, we will be able get more
of what we want without as much effort as we are struggling to invest now.
Phil
Crosby, the Quality Guru, wisely said, "Health is the only Wealth. And
it's Tax Free!" So,
doesn't it make sound financial sense to focus on what matters than on matters
that don't?
