What is Your Health “Assurance” Plan?
Steve Tullius, DC
No, I’m not talking about the name of the company on your insurance card. I’m talking
about the plan you have laid out to improve or at very least maintain your current level of
health. I’m talking about a detailed health plan documenting specific goals and planned
action steps for their accomplishment. You don’t have one? Have you ever heard the
saying, “Those who don’t plan, plan to fail?”
No one plans on having a heart attack, becoming obese or facing cancer. Yet our actions
often lead us directly down those paths. If we don’t have a plan of action to take us from
our current state to where we want to be, we will be forced to deal with unwanted health
challenges down the road.
Besides family, my health and wellness are my top priority. It’s easy for me because it is
my life’s purpose to help others achieve their health goals and maximize their health
potentials. For most of us though, our passions and careers have taken us down different
paths. However, most people still find time to plan for retirement, to plan their yearly
vacations, and plan for their children’s college funds, yet do not take the time to set up
their own Health Plan.
I’ve created a simple form to help you create that plan. You can access it by clicking on
the link below. The first thing you need to do is decide how long you want to live. 80, 100,
120 years? How active do you want to be? Would you like to be golfing at 85 years old?
Travel across the world at 98? From there you need to determine specific action steps
necessary to achieve those goals.
Once you complete that you’ve completed the most important step: having a plan. Now
comes the easy part…following you plans! Good luck and have fun!
Yours in Health,
