As any golfer or baseball player knows, follow-through is an important part of their personal game.  No matter what your project or task is at hand, once you begin to swing into action, you absolutely must follow-through to attain or obtain your desired results.
July 5th

Activities of Daily Living (ADLs) is a real term used in healthcare that refers to daily basic self-care activities in an individual's residence, outdoor environment or both. The ability or inability that an individual performs their ADLs is a measure of the functional status of the individual, particularly the injured, those with disabilities and the elderly. Very young children require assistance from adults to perform ADLs since they have not yet developed the skills necessary to perform ADLs on their own.

Basic ADLs (bADLs) are the things we normally do such as bathing, dressing, feeding ourselves, functional mobility, personal hygiene and grooming. Instrumental ADLs (iADLs) are things such as housework, money management, preparing meals, shopping and work.

Sometimes it is necessary to review the rules of kindergarten to remember how to be nice to others and use Good manners. And sometimes we just need to go back to the basics of the 'Activities of Daily Living' in order to take better care of ourselves and start living Life rightly.

Below you will see 7 simple activities to accomplish at some point during the day all under the motivation of the the daily mentation question below. You have 24 hours to get through this question along with the 7 activities. READY? SET? GO!

Activities of Daily Living - Mentation Question

What makes me feel 'familiar contempt' for someone I know?

Activities of Daily Living - Hygiene and Grooming

Getting wet usually only feels Good when it is intentional, like bathing or swimming. Keep an umbrella inside the car (not in the trunk). Buy a cheap plastic poncha at the dollar to keep in your glove compartment, desk drawer, tote or backpack. Stay dry and be prepared. Buy heavier plastic poncho's at larger discount stores in the camping section.

Activities of Daily Living - Physical Movement

Know your BMI (Body Mass Index) so you can be more aware of why you need to move your body and stay physically active. A waist size over 35 inches in women and over 40 inches in men greatly increases the risk of chronic diseases like diabetes, heart disease and more.

Activities of Daily Living - Housework and Cleaning

You can get rid of smelly odors in your garbage disposal real easy by feeding it ice cubes laced with vinegar. Then just flip the switch and grind the cubes. Then run some cold water to rinse. That's it. Smell be gone!

Activities of Daily Living - Financial Management

Simply not spending money is a short term act to accumulate money. Unless you make a real lifestyle change, you may not see the bottom line in your bank account grow to accumulate much. As with anything in Life, it takes a real lifestyle change to make a significant impact. Instead of a kneejerk reaction, think lifestyle change.

Activities of Daily Living - Work and Productivity

As any golfer or baseball player knows, follow-through is an important part of their personal game. No matter what your project or task is at hand, once you begin to swing into action, you absolutely must follow-through to attain or obtain your desired results.

Activities of Daily Living - Food Preparation

You can grow a small herb garden no matter where you live. Even living in an apartment, you can grow a small herb garden. Not only are you growing your own food, it is fantastic Feng Shui to have green growth inside the home. Green growth represents money.
