Over All Well Being
With being physically active I would rate my physical well being as a 6 I do workout and hike 5 times a week. There are time when I don't workout as hard as I should and those times I feel I have cheated myself. For my spiritual well being I would like to believe I am a very spiritual person so I would rate it as a 6 also. I love setting and taking in the simple things and my entire environment, I try to keep myself from a lot of drama and things that are not going to make me a better man or add value to my life. When I encounter people I always ask myself I wonder what their story is and how they arrived in life where they are. My psychological wellness I would rate it at a 7 with me being the youngest out of 10 kids I was always the one who looked at the glass half full when mom couldn't afford to keep the power on in the house for only 6 months out of the year. I looked at it as a way to get to know my siblings a lot better and spend more personal time playing the many board games we began collecting. I feel that when things go bad yes it's bad but it could be worse for example with my job it's a lot of overtime right now and balancing time between being here and being at home is a challenge some me and my wife came up with a way to spend time as family by having two days out of the week we both leave early cook a meal as a family watch a movie or play a board game. depends on who's turn it is to choose. This way we are still keeping in touch with each others lives and the things going on in our daughter's life. The thing that I would do to keep moving forward for all the wellness's physically I would increase intensity and reduce time, spiritually I would be less hesitant to help people in need, with people being robbed when helping someone change tire I have thought twice about helping so I will stay positive and roll up my selves like I use to when I was younger. Psychological I would work on being more in tuned with the things that people are saying to me instead of how they say it because I need to recognize more the emotional state they are in and not make quick assumptions. For the relaxing exercise it didn't really do anything for me I guess it's due to I have my own ways of relaxing for me nature sounds are my thing.

Antonio,
ReplyDeleteYou did a fabulous job on this week’s blog! I enjoyed reading your overall well-being and I have to state that I rated myself pretty low on physical well-being too because I do not feel I exercise as much as I should however, I do take hikes and love them and just took a hike up the mountains yesterday to see the beautiful landscape of changing leaves.
To further the blog, what are exercises could you do at home to improve your physical well-being? DO you think your rate will ever improve in time?
Antonio,
ReplyDeleteI like that you plan or schedule family time to ensure that you get it. It is also very clever to do more intense physical training to save time but to still exercise. If you find simple ways to do this you well see great results. Online there are many examples of how to do HIIT (High Intensity Interval training). One of the best ways to workout is to hike(walk) has it burns calories and allows you time to think. Hiking is maintainable and can be done by most for a life time.
Trust is a tough thing to come by in todays world but with using your common since most times you can get a feel to help or not. I helped a family asking for money, I felt burned has I saw the same family a few weeks later at another location farther away and I knew that they had the means (nice car they got into and out of) to travel. I was mad has they made it feel like they had no car or place to live. I’d say though to give has it comes from your heart so if you do it with the right intent it doesn’t matter if those receiving are doing it for the right reasons. Good post and best of luck for you and your family...
