WanderLearn: Travel to Transform Your Mind & Life

You're Wrong If You Think You Don't Have Time to Exercise

When you're traveling, it's easy to forget to exercise. In fact, even when you're not traveling, it's hard to have the daily discipline. 
Some people get more exercise when they're traveling than when they're at home because when they're traveling, they're walking far more. 
For others, it's the opposite. When they travel, they're lost without their local gym. 
What I forgot to mention in this podcast
One of the best ways to exercise every day is to make exercise part of your commute (or at least part of your work).
For instance, take the bike to work. I took the bike to Microsoft, even when it was raining. (It helps that I didn't have a car.) 
With more and more businesses allowing their workers to dress casually, you no longer have the excuse that your expensive suit will get sullied. 
Many companies have showers at the office making it easier than ever to run or bike to work.
Another way to integrate exercise in your day is to run errands on a bike or on foot. When I lived at the top of Potrero Hill, I still did my grocery shopping with my bike. I lugged the bike with a backpack full of groceries up that steep hill. 
Instead of meeting someone for coffee or lunch, meet them for a hike or a walk. That's exactly what I did with my friend Jeremiah Owang. 
I usually take the stairs, even when I have to go to the 11th floor.
Make exercise a priority in your schedule. Presidents George W. Bush and Barack Obama demanded that their daily schedules have one hour for exercise. If they can make time for exercise, so can you.
