Is Health All About... Just Pleasing?

Todays Health Article

May 8th, 2011

Today looking around us…we are appealing, or just pleasing to the many facets of our life, and our health is no exception to the rule.We subjected to the many comments everyday regarding health issues, such as we should drink more of this or that,or that food may not be so good for you, and you should eat more of this kind! Then we all have the government’s suggested guidelines and the Health Watch Dogs. They are handing out criticism and guidlines for our health, and they are hoping we all jump on their pleasing wagon, so they might be pleased as well. This article is not anyway saying that all these guidelines, comments and pokes are not good for our health, but it may be just to wide a concept for most us to please. Pleasing others, can sometimes, just be too confusing for our health.

Why Exercise this Action?

Well most people actually do want to take some action, or responsibility for their health, and please those around them. It just seems to be human nature. Your best friend tells you …You should lose weight and that friend is trying some new diet, you most likely will try it too! We seem to be all following like sheep, what ever pleases others and makes them happy we will take some action for a moment or a few days, that’s about how long most diets work anyway, and you will be on some new adventure regarding pleasing some one else. You know, I seem to remember, it’s been awhile, but eating the vegetables at our house, got you to the dessert or treat that came afterwards. Again as I recall, seems to be just a little self defeating eating the vegetables, for the sweet stuff. Parents are asking children to do this everyday!

Instead of Pleasing Others

Please yourself …you know whats good for you and what is not by now… we have been beaten up by the media and all who write articles, why do we even care! Well sometimes we need to hear it one more time for it to sink in, and for the others who are letting their health just get out of hand. After all 60 out 100 people are now pleasingly plump according to the status reports.Source: excerpt from Understanding Adult Obesity: NIDDK) So pleasing our selves may be just what we are actually doing more of and listening less to those whom are requesting to be pleased. Perhaps that we have actually rebelled against those asking to be pleased, and now we are facing the consequences.

Perhaps this is just… Too wide a Concept

For many this may just be to hard, or to difficult to grasp. If your are influence by the fact that pleasing is just your nature, you may become overwhelmed, disappointed, frustrated, and frankly your health will be influenced by some tactics that may be taken to please others. Many of these come along with the people who are closest to us or family members. Many have fallen into the diet scheme, others have become chemically dependent, chasing the fact that pleasing others may have some health benefit. Other have walked a dangerous path to please others.

Becoming Healthy is Not always about Pleasing.

Pleasing the masses or the individuals that may have an influence on your eating habits, healthy does not always come along with pleasing. My old adage to success, was to follow those individuals who were just a little on the 180 degree of everyone else, or simply opposite of what every one else was doing. Now that not totally true but if most would follow that simple concept, 60% would be skinny and only 40% would be overweight. Thus only 40% would be pleasing others and we as a Healthy Concept would be much better off.

Todays Health Comments

Today we are more like sheep ( followers) and are not taking into consideration, our health may be influenced by our actions. We are so busy pleasing all who surround us, that we may take desperate measures, to correct our health problems that may have adverse actions. We must please ourselves to feel the significance of accomplishment of greater health, but the pleasing to be for the right path to a healthier body. The formula always comes down to seeking professional help if need be, eating for proper nutrition and getting enough exercise to burn those calories.
