Be in shape

Today’s modern world, especially in many wealthy countries, is facing an issue: obesity.

We now have many machines that make our lives easier and more effortless.

But just as wisdom is gained by reflecting on problems, your body—and how in shape you are—is a reflection of how dedicated you are to yourself and to those you care for.

Because being in shape isn’t just for you. It shows that you care about others, that you don’t want to worry them by becoming sick.

And as always, this is something only you can do. No one can eat properly or exercise in your place.

Learning more about how to stay healthy—and how our brain connects this knowledge to the effort we’re willing to give—are further signs that a balanced life is essential.

Let’s be in shape!
