Make Time for Exercise

You've heard it a million times from your doctor, on TV, and in
magazines. Exercise is good for you. Try to exercise at least three
to four times a week. I know-when will you have time for that?
Think of exercise like eating and sleeping; you need it in your
schedule , it's non-negotiable. Choose whatever exercise works for
you. If you don't have access to gym equipment, simply grab your
iPod and take a brisk twenty-minute walk. You'll feel stronger after
exercise-both emotionally and physically.

mIlllOn­ As you streamline your schedule and sacrifice social time for
dollar make the effort to find some time to spend with friends.

TIP Wtletlher you meet for a walk or a coffee date, getting away
from it a l l can be rejuvenating. In fact, studies show that
being with our favorite friends has a positive effect on our
nervous system. So take time for laughter and friendship.

Don't Worry

Try to let go of the unnecessary worries of the day. They say that
a day of worry is more exhausting than a week of work (I agreeO. If
you get consumed with worry, refocus on your goals. I give you this
advice as a former worrier, so I know what it's like. The message of
some motivational speakers helped me-I like Tony Robbins and
Deepak Chopra. If motivational speakers don't work for you, listen
to music or meditate. Find a way to let go of thoughts that aren't
serving you well. Again, the system isn't what's important-what
matters is that you let it go.

To start letting go of worry, simply catch yourself when you begin
worrying. Try to shift gears. Instead of thinking about what you
didn't do or what you don't have, focus on what you have accom­
plished and the fact that you are following a dream. Cleanse your
mind daily by taking some deep breaths. With each exhale let some
"stuff" go.
