Health always comes first

Health always comes first.

People often make the mistake of exchanging things other than their bodies for health.

-Schopenhauer

More and more people overdraw their bodies for things outside their bodies. Although people pay more and more attention to health problems, many people are still lucky. It can be said that losing health means losing everything. Schopenhauer has a clear understanding of health, and Schopenhauer is very indifferent to the wealth and status of the outside world. Of course, no one can deny the value of wealth. Many times, wealth will be the most solid backing in the face of misfortune and disaster. However, wealth is by no means used for pleasure and luxury. Wealth cannot be equated with happiness, not to say that the more wealth, the happier. Schopenhauer said, "What makes people happy is not wealth, but health." Therefore, it is extremely unwise to take things outside your body too seriously.

A businessman was on a boat. When he was approaching the shore, a big wind and waves suddenly blew and overturned the boat. Everyone else on the boat swam to the shore, but the businessman grabbed a bag and swam forward with difficulty. When people on the shore saw this scene, they all shouted, "Put down your bag and swim over." However, the businessman ignored it until a big storm came and swallowed it up. Later, people realized that the bag contained gold and silver treasures.

There is a man who works in front of the computer every day and sometimes works overtime at midnight. A day's sleep is only about five hours. High-intensity work makes his health worse than before, either headache or cervical pain ... Friends and relatives advised him, but he always said: "Now is the time to struggle, work first."

It is difficult for a person who doesn't know how to take care of his body to enjoy health. Schopenhauer believes that the fundamental difference of mortal fate lies in three contents: one is man himself; The second is things outside the body; The third is the evaluation of others. Among them, man's own influence on fate is more fundamental and thorough than the first two. People themselves include people's health, strength, appearance, temperament, morality, spiritual intelligence and potential development. Among them, health is the first. People's health far exceeds all external interests. For everyone, happiness index mostly depends on health. We regard health as "1", while wealth, status, power, reputation ... everything you strive for is "0". When "1" is still there, "0" will really make you happier, but if "1" is dropped, more "0" will be nothing.

Only by staying healthy will happiness come. Otherwise, all external interests will lose their original meaning, and diseases, mental thoughts, emotions, temperament and so on will be affected to varying degrees. Therefore, health first is not an empty talk. The most common mistake people make is to sacrifice their health for those "0s".

Change the bad schedule.

As the old saying goes, work at sunrise and rest at sunset. You will be punished when you violate the laws of nature. Try to put down the less urgent work at hand and ensure enough sleep so that you can have more energy to work. Nowadays, many young people squander their health unscrupulously because they are young and healthy. Get rid of unnecessary parties, go home at night, listen to light music, read books for a while, try to turn off your cell phone and sleep peacefully. In the morning, you will be greeted by your energetic self.

Ensure healthy eating habits.

Walking in the street in the morning, you often see some people walking at a brisk pace with a briefcase in one hand and breakfast in the other. This is a very bad eating habit. Others forget to eat and sleep, overeat or hunger strike for work because of lovelorn love. It is foolish to overdraw your health with these things, and soon your body will not be able to support you to finish your work. Besides moderate diet, three meals a day should also be on time.

Life lies in movement

Only by ensuring a certain amount of exercise every day can we do other things better. Schopenhauer is also very concerned about his health after his creation. In addition to regular physical examination, his diet is also very regular. Schopenhauer said: "the means to keep healthy is nothing more than avoiding all wanton behaviors, unpleasant and intense emotional turmoil, and long-term nervous mental fatigue;" Take at least two hours of rapid physical exercise outdoors every day; Take a cold bath often and pay attention to your diet. "Schopenhauer has the habit of taking a long walk after dinner. He often talks to himself. Isn't this a very comfortable exercise?
