Decade: 20s
While in my 20s, I will go a short morning run or jog everyday. I will reduce the amount of meat I consume, and will eat fish for its nutrients at least twice a week. I will go in for a check-up with my doctor at least every two years. I will make sure to take care of my mental health, as new or first jobs and the exiting of college can be quite stressful. Of course, I will NOT start my adult life as a smoker or excessive drinker. -

Decade: 60s
In my 60s, I will wind-down my work schedule, which should reduce any stress from my job. I hope to retire in my 60s, so I will take care of my body when I have the extra time off.
