"Good health is the most important thing. More than success. More than money. More than power." - Lee Strasberg
For many, the word 'valuable' automatically triggers thoughts of money, or wealth. A recent Forbes article seemingly supports this statement, claims that while a majority of successful people actually name time as their most valuable asset, finances get a solid honorable mention. However, many people ignored the fact that the most valuable thing life could offer is a good health.
Health is the foundation you need to attain every other valuable resource. Without health, you don't have the capacity to create wealth. Imagine if you are dealing with debilitating health issue, or a chronic lack of access to the means for healthy living, this automatically makes it harder to build up a wealth of life experiences and tend to your spiritual and emotional health.
Money can buy most things in life, but it can't really buy health. It may be able to buy treatments, but quality in life -- the ability to experience joy and share it with others is not for sale at any price. In other words, the best way to be a truly wealthy person is to protect the health of your body, mind, and spirit .
