Welcome back or welcome to, the Lawyer’s Well-being Brief. Every week, I share insights and tools to help us improve our well-being. Happy 4th of July! This week I’m sharing tips from Benjamin Franklin.

What?

As the adage goes, “Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy, and wise,” a notion famously attributed to Benjamin Franklin.

So What?

During the course of our well-being journey, it is essential to prioritize both physical and mental well-being. Franklin’s timeless wisdom encapsulates the interconnected nature of our well-being. It suggests that by taking care of our health, we can cultivate the necessary energy and clarity of mind to pursue wealth and wisdom. This sentiment underscores the importance of prioritizing self-care and balance in our lives.

It is all too easy to neglect our well-being in favor of pursuing material success. However, Franklin’s words serve as a poignant reminder that true prosperity encompasses not only financial stability but also physical and mental vitality.
