I am writing this post today on health as this would be one of my niches in the weeks or months to come.

Thank God for good health minus some pain here and there. Health is the most precious asset we could have on this earth. Our foundation of success in life is basically good health. In fact, it's futile to accumulate massive wealth if one can't enjoy it later. Some call it delayed gratification, but it won't be possible if the wealthy person is often on his sickbed.

Let me grab a cup of coffee before I continue. I need my coffee for a recharge each sunrise. I just love the smell of freshly brewed coffee, and find it hard to resist especially when I wake up in the morning.

Age is just a number folks. When we manage our health well, no matter what our age is, we could still accomplish a lot of things. How true it is, good health adds years to our life. We have a prime minister in Malaysia today, Dr Mahathir Mohamad who has been elected for the second time at his current age of 92+ and will be turning 93 next month.

A medical doctor by training, keeps himself healthy and active, still travels, he just returned from Japan after a diplomatic visit, goes horse riding during the weekends. Previously, he served this country with distinction for 22 years. Retired in 2003, now back out of retirement to rebuild this nation which has been mismanaged with corruption and a lot of debts by the previous administration.

He always encourages everyone to eat moderately, stay healthy and reminds us often that we are what we eat. When we indulge in unhealthy eating, we tend to suffer at the later part of our lives.

I battle with osteoarthritis on my right knee for a couple of years now, standing at 6'5 and a relatively large frame puts pressure on my knees. So the need for me to keep my weight in check is imperative at the moment.

Despite all the many challenges and some past mistakes in his former administration, today he is back as a changed man, stands tall among his political comrades and opponents, heading the new administration called the 'Alliance of Hope' rebuilding this beautiful nation once again.

So this awesome leader has been and remains one of my distinctive role models in life when it comes to being healthy, wealthy and still be productive even during the twilight years, touching lives across the nation as well as around the world today.

Have a wonderful day everyone, stay healthy and continue touching lives wherever you are on the planet. God bless you and yours. Cheers!
