Thanks Ross and Sam…
Lance: It’s probably one of those questions (and there are many) that just can’t be answered. It will likely always be dependent on how you look at it. Either way, they go hand in hand and it’s great that they do as it makes improving health a whole lot easier since progress feeds progress.

re: Attitude and health. Which came first, the chicken or the egg? I think of my previous physical condition just a few short years ago – and I came to a low point in my life – where I decided I needed to exercise and eat healthy to improve my physical health. As I did this, mentally, I just began to have a more upbeat attitude. So, it seems like health came before attitude for me. But did it? Maybe I began with my attitude, saying I didn’t want to live in the apathy I was in (sounds like my attitude is improving here) – and then I worked on my physical health. Which continued to feed my mental health. I don’t know, I guess…Maybe it’s a big circle, and we’re on that continuum somewhere… Good question Mike, and I don’t think I really answered it at all!

I also believe in the power of self-confidence and I do agree its a healthy attitude. It is one of the ingredients to success and one of the most important there is.

This is a very helpful post. Thanks.

Hi there.. Very comprehensive post, well done. Two of the stand out areas for me that you have mentioned are self-confidence and health. Having a right attitude and being productive cannot really go well for you if you don’t have a certain degree of self-confidence. Likewise, it’s important not to undervalue the importance of good health. Neglecting your body not only leads to stress, poor health and tiredness, but also diminishing motivation, poor concentration, and certainly lack of productivity.

Cheers Mike, well done!

Viriya, I like your thoughts on attitude and how you’ve made connected elements from with it. Hope others comment on your site as well to explore that further…

Robert, thanks for pointing out that article. You’ve done an amazing job of showing and highlighting how love is such an important part of a servant’s attitude.

And Stephen, thanks for the comments. I’ll continue the discussion on your site.

Hi Mike!

You once again cover the subject very thoroughly. Attitude is so important in life! Our attitude largely determines the flavor of our lives. In this respect we are amazingly powerful creators of our own reality.

Also, I wanted you to know I replied to your comment on my article regarding Karma and Reincarnation.

I agree with you! Health is very important for attitude. And exercise is really a good treatment to stress! Somehow after exercise, I forgot the problems I got! Cheer up!

Thanks Jennifer, I’m thrilled with the response from this series so far, it seems to fit so many of the areas I write about and finally, in a fairly condensed set. The most difficult thing for me is to keep it concise and helpful, a challenging combination for sure. Thanks for the comment…

Viriya, thanks again for the encouragement as well. I think if you interpret things differently than I meant them, then I have more work to make my writing even clearer! As always, communication is in how something is received AND understood so it is certainly not your fault. As well, I’ll definitely check out your article once you post it! And yes, I know as well how long it can take to write a great article. It’s worth it every time though when comments like those above are added!
