Staying healthy helps make you a better worker or a better manager. Keeping your workers healthy makes your organization more effective More and more companies are actively promoting  "wellness" through exercise facilities, expanded health services, etc. These are positive trends. The progressive organization must explore all avenues for promoting good health. Some of these avenues may include minimizing travel schedules that are disruptive of a worker’s personal life, providing adequate vacation time, offering onsite education on key issues such as nutrition, drug abuse, disease avoidance and banning smoking.
     In terms of good health from the individual’s perspective, we all need to follow the basics which include adequate sleep and relaxation, a balanced diet, no smoking, minimal caffeine, minimal alcohol, no illegal drugs, minimal legal drugs, plenty of exercise, etc.
     Again, as in virtually every area, it is important to keep everything in a proper perspective and proper balance. Unless you have a specific medical problem it is not necessary to eliminate all alcohol，all sugar，all caffeine from your diet or make extreme efforts to pursue some particular diet.Another area where people go to absurd extremes is exercise. It is not necessary to be a marathon runner to get adequate exercise.Running a few miles a few times a week should suffice. People who become obsessed with exercise and spend hours and hours every day running or pumping iron can generally do so only at the great expense of creating a serious imbalance elsewhere in their lives. Again and again, the keys are proper perspective and proper balance，taking care to see the whole picture and meet all your needs.
