Definitely my health and that of my loved ones. Happiness comes next but this is all VERY closely followed by wealth! Having money helps in the happiness side of things[cap]
One doesn’t (generally) consider health as an important issue until ……….. one starts to suffer from a serious ailment.
The moment one’s health is gone, boy oh boy, does one have problems and, for most people, it is only then that one starts to value one’s health instead of taking it for granted.
Knowledge of how to make money one can acquire at anyone time once one is motivated to do so.
The problem is that so many desire money without being prepared to pay the price necessary to get it (most not even being aware that there is a price to be paid as it isn’t a matter of being lucky so much as doing the common sense kind of things, step by step).
For us, in this country, the formula is simple. What with inflation and increase in population working in one’s favour it is only a matter of time + some action and one’s wealth plan will start to unfold.
However, if one abuses one’s body and ill health starts to appear everything becomes so much more difficult if not impossible.
Ill health saps one’s energy, affects one’s drive, causes money problems for many people and produces a deteriation in the quality of life.
So in reply to Sooshies question ‘What’s important for you’ I must say :
To get my health in a better shape so as to increase the quality of my life, to generate the energy needed to walk around and enjoy life (more).
BTW for those who are starting to notice that there may be one or more healthproblems in their life one could do a lot worse than having a peek at the following website belonging to the Hypoglycemic Association of Australia : http://www.hypoglycemia.asn.au/indexmain.html
Hypoglycemia is seen as the starting point for a discussion on nutritional disorders underlying most degenerative diseases and mental disorders.
I do know one thing and that is that by making slight changes in my food I have been able to rectify at least three major problems in my health.
Hi Sooshie, haven’t seen your name on the posts for a while, hope things are going OK in your world.
What’s important to me – trying to spend more quality time with people, and not getting caught up in the daily grind of work, work, work. Keeping some space for me to enjoy the world – quiet time to reflect, heal, think, grow.
That’s important too.

ValiantWagon, I suggest you have a look at the website and, if something clicks, look into it.
Otherwise just forget about it.
The proof of the pudding is in the eating, not in
the discussion of it. A series of tests will soon show which foods one is allergic to and, provided one follows the guidelines, one soon enough will discover some of one’s health problems disappearing.
My personal experience is that three major health issues (one of them a lifelong problem) have been solved by a simple avoidance of a couple of foods.
There is a very informative book about the subject available from this website (the title is ‘The Hypoglycemic Connection 11.’) which can explain it so much better than I can.
All I know is what changing my food intake has achieved for me.
Anyway, Valiant Wagon, to come back to Sooshies’ question, what is important to U ?
1. Me, my wife and extended family being healthy and genuinely happy… not necessarily in financial terms, but just being able to wear a genuine smile and saying “life’s pretty good”
2. Making productive use of my spare time, in terms of utilising it to learn, stay fit and strong, having fun, stopping to smell the roses…
3. Enjoyment of work…
(when I eventually have kids they’ll be top of the hit parade, no doubt)
I just wanted to say it’s great to see Sooshie’s name about the forum boards again..
Welcome back Soosh![inlove]
