Hurley suggests that with good health, you “emphatically enjoy exercise and find your focus.” That should be a good motivator to start or maintain an exercise program that fits your needs.
With examples of cultures in Sardinia and people in the Hunza valley in the Himalayan Mountains, we see evidence of people who thrive and live healthy to be centenarians, where they live well without the modern world diet.
Another important section discusses stress. While Hurley states it is difficult to prove occupational stress has a direct correlation with disease, this section wakes us up to the daily stressors we could change if we increase our awareness of their detrimental effects. Benefits of lower stress include: better relationships, better self-care, happiness, and longer life. Who doesn’t want that?
Many of these are things we’ve heard before but they are especially convincing with Hurley’s sincere tone and high energy. These philosophies come from a person who has used these strategies to turn his life around, and rid himself of disease. Hurley serves to inspire us with his unique spin and fresh enthusiasm for our boundless abilities.
Proving he’s got it all mastered, Hurley has produced a very attractive book. Boundless is as thorough as any I’ve seen, and offers generous resources to understand the science in health matters, and to gain a balance in body/mind health and wealth.
Hurley quotes Brian Tracy who says “Today the greatest single source of wealth is between your ears.” As Hurley puts it: “To some, health is wealth even if their pockets are empty,” as he talks of spiritual wealth as well as financial stability. In the end, he says: “You came into this world with nothing, you’ll leave this world with nothing. What you acquire along the way (knowledge) is what you will take with you when you go, so learn, love, and live!”
