Healthy, Wealthy &Wise

July 22, 2021 by Dimitri

Paros

Happy Thursday!

Greek or not Greek, being intentional about health and wealth is a wise way to live.

Becoming a billionaire or fitness model might not be on your current “to-do” list; however, financial stability, a few investments for retirement, and a healthier waistline may be goals worth achieving.

The Early Bird Catches the Worm

“It is well to be up before daybreak, for such habits contribute to health, wealth, and wisdom.” Aristotle

Being an early riser has many advantages, especially if you plan your day the night before. While a good night’s sleep is essential, hard work is necessary to accomplish any personal goal.

Words of Wisdom

“It is better to wear out our shoes by working than to stay in bed and be lazy. Work is a blessing, a gift from God. Work gives vigour to the body and refreshes the mind. If God had not given us work, man would have become mouldy.” Saint Paisios
