Life is a lottery. One minute everything could be going your way, the next something crops up that blocks your path. The problem may be small, simple to solve and something you can easily overcome to get back on track. However, it could create a much larger blockade that takes much longer to circumvent.
 
Many of these major problems come out of the blue without warning. Suffering an accident or being diagnosed with an illness can happen in seconds and happen to anyone. Even the most risk adverse person in the world cannot completely guarantee their health and safety. Therefore, it makes total sense to take steps to mitigate the impact of these issues.
 
We’re all very used to hearing messages to encourage us to do more exercise and eat more healthily. These are good things to do. It is proven that inactivity and obesity are harmful and increase your chances of becoming ill and can shorten your life expectancy.
 
However, the fittest, healthiest person can still have an accident or contract a serious illness. Just looking after that aspect of your life will still leave you vulnerable to many bumps in the road.
