Health and fitness begin in your mind. Can you eat better? Can you exercise 3 – 5 times a week? Can you give your own body the love you’d like to shower on a partner? Health is your number one commodity as you get older. Stay healthy by taking little steps towards a better, stronger, you.
Fitness and health are the currency of growing old. Let’s do it with intention. Don’t hope to catch up later, get on a health kick, eat better, sleep better, love better. Your fitness and health are the most important things in your life. (Maybe after mental health, in my case.)

Getting better at retaining focus, you bring your energy, enthusiasm, and effort to Goal-Focused Actions.
Go offline and discover what you love. Show up there. Look around. Discover others who might have the same passions.
I often overdo my stimulation chemistry and wind up anxious, too type-a driven, interruptive, and brash.
Keeping sexual communication open throughout your relationship is critical. As one partner starts closing off, and not just having periods of low sexual desire, but shutting down the idea of sex, something is going to break down.
