A common pathway towards regret is the failure in meeting survival needs.

Failing to take better care of your health is a common example.

You should run your life like a serious business, like a company with several departments.

The most important Life Department in your business of the self is your Health Department.

It should then be further divided into three different offices, to focus on your physical health, your mental health, and your financial health.

What’s the best way to manage our physical health?

After you eat, the food is broken down into fat, sugar and protein.

By way of the blood stream, the fat is sent to the liver. The left-over fat is stored in fat cells.

The sugar is delivered to various organs. The left-over sugar is converted into fat and stored in fat cells.

The protein is broken down into amino acids for use in body growth and maintenance. The left-over is converted into fat and stored in fat cells.

Fat cells are where the body stores the extra energy for use when the body is not getting enough food.

I remember very well when I normally get not enough food: unemployment!

For many of us, unemployment can last several months.

It’s impossible for any of us to have enough fat cells in our own body to store enough extra energy for use during such a long period of time.

There must be a better way to extend the capability of our fat cells.

There is a better way. It’s called emergency fund.

An emergency fund is a stash of money set aside to cover the financial surprises life throws at you.

That’s the external fat cells for your body.

Financial health is an extension of your physical health.

Health care is not just about physical health and mental health but also financial health.

Stop adding more external storage to your computer if you did not start adding external fat cells for your body.

Your emergency fund is your external fat cells.
