Leadership Tips & Training Exercise Motivation

Does money motivate you? I love to shop, don't you? Get a large jar and display it in a prominent place in your home. Develop a scheduled workout plan that you will do consistently. After each workout, put one dollar in the jar. If you skip a scheduled workout, take two dollars out. When the jar is full, treat yourself to something special. (Not food!)

Browsing the internet, I ran across this very colorful and helpful web page on reading nutritional labels. At the bottom there is a link to download a PDF file which would print out nicely if you wanted to share this with your class.
