Activities that involve hiking, walking, swimming, etc. can boost physical strength. A healthy body is an accelerator for a healthy mind.

An American Life Worth Living

Growing up, I couldn't have imagined the kind of business and personal journeys I've participated in, to date. And I tell you, it's been already one of a heck of a ride going wide and deep across the country. It has had plenty of bumps and bruises but has also been worth every second. My life quest has been defined by a personal constitution that's driven by service and doing good. My generation, Gen Y, still chases the American life, the one defined by the rising expectations of our consumerism and standard of living to increasingly diminishing returns.
