Health is a key cornerstone to sustaining peak performance in all areas of our lives. It’s no good waiting until you have a quieter period or some time off to exercise. As far as the body is concerned - If you don’t lose it, you lose it!

The reason why so many people don’t invest the necessary time in their health is due to the fact that health requires a longer term vision and the benefits and/or costs to neglecting it are not always immediate.

Last weekend was Swiss National Day and we have an annual tradition to go away with family and friends to hike in the stunning Gasterntal valley near Kandersteg, Switzerland. I was totally inspired to hike with the parents of my good friend Ellen. They are 74 and 77 years of age and yet accompanied us right to the top of the mountain, leaving behind the younger crowd (those in their 40's and 50's!). They are still in fantastic shape and have made regular exercise part of their personal success habits. Well into their 70's they exemplify true zest for life!

Thank you Paul and Rina for being such inspirational role models and reaching the Kander Glacier (Kanderfirn) at 2411 meters with me - that's us in the picture!

Don’t hesitate to contact us if you’d like to improve performance in any area of your life.
