I was sitting in the waiting room at the skin cancer clinic when I began to reflect on the importance of health. Its checkups like these that remind me of the fragility of life, the importance of prevention and taking care of our most important asset: our body.

In business we can be too focused on growth, new ideas, profit, and plans for the future. We sometimes forget to invest in now, specifically our health. My grandmother always uses to say “your health is your wealth” and I believe she was spot on.

There is strong evidence to support the theory that a healthy body and mind results in good business decisions, which leads to profitable outcomes.

Employers should encourage employees to look after their body, allow them time to visit the doctor and have the necessary checkups. We foster a strong health/prevention culture at Enterprise Search and the results I believe are clear.

Take some time to invest in your body, take some preventative steps and your body will thank you. Maybe your business will too.
