This quote is often attributed to Robin Sharma, the author of The 5AM Club, a book about maximizing your potential by mastering your mornings. Whether he said it or not, one thing is certain: time spent on your health is never wasted—because without it, nothing else matters.

"If you don’t make time for your wellness, you will be forced to make time for your illness."

Every day, you decide where your time goes. Ignore your body, and soon, time won’t be yours to control—it will be dictated by pain, fatigue, or worse. Your body is the only vehicle you have for this life. If it breaks down, no other plans, goals, or distractions will matter.

And it’s not just your body. Your mind needs care too. Learning, managing emotions, and mastering the relationship with yourself are the foundations of a life well-lived. Ignore them, and stress, anxiety, and regret will take over, consuming the time you thought you had.

Curious how much time you might have left to care for yourself? My Life in Weeks can show you. But the real question is: how much of it will you choose to invest in your well-being before it’s too late?

Because once your time is taken by illness, you don’t get it back.
