Entrepreneur’s NEED To Take Their Health Seriously, More Than Most.

May 22, 2017
Written by Cody McBroom

If you’re a business owner, entrepreneur of any kind, intrepreneur on a serious grind for someone else’s company, busy parent who is also starting a brand, movement or working their tail off…

Ok, so this is titled entrepreneur but it is for anyone who lives a life similar to an entrepreneur. By this I just mean you are busy and have some kind of “calling”, we could say, that entitles you to be on the hustle more often than not.

This is a great thing; you’re busy with a fucking reason.

I get it. I’m in the exact same position, which is why this video from Gary Vee stood out to me – but especially because I am a fitness entrepreneur.

I’m also a fitness entrepreneur who coaches other entrepreneurs, business owners, and busy as people that forget to take care of themselves first. See without taking care of yourself, you truly cannot take care of other things – people or projects.

Listen, Gary is one of the most successful entrepreneurs in today’s society and he is also one of the busiest guy’s any of us have ever seen (if you haven’t watched his YouTube, do so asap). But even Gary puts his health and fitness first, because he KNOWS that his business and lifestyle will not survive if he doesn’t.

Because he knows this, he invests in this and his business and personal life grow due to that. Just WATCH:

“Your Body is the Fastest Path to Power”

I’ve been saying this constantly lately and it should hit home with ANY entrepreneur reading this, because it’s the absolute truth and if you want to be even more successful – I know you do – than you need to consider this fact.

See I live by a Code, “The Warriors Way”. This Code is something called “Core 4” and it’s a system built by Garret J. White and the Wake Up Warrior movement. I’m not going to try to teach you hear, so do yourself a favor and look them up – well worth it I promise.

But the concept behind core 4 is simple… One path leads into another.

BODY
BEING
BALANCE
BUSINESS

Without applying their principles to each aspect, you cannot be successful in the next. Mastering your body leads to a better being (mindset, spirituality, etc.), once you master both your body and you being you will be able to thrive in your balance (relationships), and once these are all in line your business will take off (career, bank account).

This video with Gary breaks it down in a real life example. One that I thought we should all appreciate and take in as advice from one of the most successful entrepreneurs out there.

Don’t let life and everything in it take a hold of you and your health… Take a hold of your life and everything inside it, because you took care of your health.

If you’re not happy with your body and know it’s the missing link to living your life at a much higher standard – Click Here Now and we’ll get on a Strategy Call, breaking down all the roadblocks and creating the path towards an accelerated lifestyle.
