The Best Version of YOU
刘立军 供稿
TRANSCRIPT
To perform at above-average capacity, you’ll also need to take care of yourself. By getting regular exercise, restful sleep, and eating healthy foods, you can be ready to take on your tasks with energy and clarity. Author Jules Robson said, “Love yourself enough to live a healthy lifestyle.”
To do above-average work you need to be physically and mentally at your best. When you are healthy, you feel good. And when you feel good you can do more, think more and be more. By prioritizing your own health, and respecting your own needs and goals, you open doors to achieving above-average accomplishments.
When you take care of yourself, you exemplify self-respect. You teach others how to treat you by allowing behaviors that support your best self-image, and respect your boundaries.
