The first wealth is health. Ralph Waldo Emerson

If you’ve spent time with computers or smartphones, you’ve seen a message that says something similar to ‘New Update Available.’

The manufacturer of the product you’re using is constantly updating the hardware and software of your device to provide you with optimum performance; this is especially true about the Operating System or OS of your device.

The OS is the computer’s version of a foundation. Therefore, if the OS has problems, it doesn’t matter how great the installed software is. It will not perform to the best of its ability.

The same applies to you.

It will not matter how much education you acquire, books you read, or information you gather, if you’re not constantly updating your own OS.

Your health and mind are your OS; if you don’t take the time to work on them, you will be unable to perform to the best of your ability.

Take steps to work on yourself because you will not receive any messages about new updates being available, but you will begin to experience poor performance.

Don’t wait until it’s too late.

Create a minimum care plan for yourself, things that you can do for yourself on a regular basis. Think of the plan as new updates for your own OS.

Unlike your device, your health and mind are the only ones you’ll have, so keep them as healthy, ‘updated,’ as possible.
