		<description>Joe,&lt;br/&gt; I have been a member of your Freedom Fitness gym in Prescott since it opened in January 2006.  I enjoy the classes like Zumba, but mainly the 0630 Yoga class taught by Rian.&lt;br/&gt;He is a wonderful, versatile instructor.I have had a hip replacement 5 years ago, never thought I would be as functional as I am. Without Yoga, I would not be in the shape that I am in now,and feeling as good.  It has really invigorated me after being immobile for years, but thanks to the class, I am feeling alive again!  Unfortunately, after 2 2/1 years, there has been a cut in classes from 3 (Mon-Wed-Fri) to 2,(Mon-Wed).  It would be great if the Friday class could be re-instated, as we are the faithful handful (between 5-9, growing in the summertime)that like the early morning workout and also some of us have to go to work, and that is the only chance we have for the great class.&lt;br/&gt;Wishing you much success, and hoping that you may even GROW in your business; there is nothing better one can do for one&#039;s well being then stay fit. I rather frequent the gym then go out for dinner!!!&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Sincerely, # 1055 in Prescott, AZ</description>

		<description>Hey Joe - This is a great question and you make some really great points in your post.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;It COULD be argued that if a member is not using his or her membership then it might be a candidate for a &#039;budget&#039; cut....After-all the value of any membership increases with use over time.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;But there is another,more subtle but no less significant &quot;value&quot; perspective worth noting.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;A recent international survey of the most successful people in business revealed 6 key traits that contribute to the generation of success.  They are, in this order:&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;1. Creativity&lt;br/&gt;2. Independence and Self Reliance&lt;br/&gt;3. Discipline and Determination&lt;br/&gt;4. High Energy and Physically Fit&lt;br/&gt;5. Risk Inclined&lt;br/&gt;6. Excellent Communicator&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;CHECK IT OUT!  &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Physical fitness is the 4th most significant trait of the most successful people!&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;(It is obvious even higher on the list if you are actually in the fitness industry)&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;The point is...next time you think you do not have time to go to the gym....think about what it costing you NOT just in terms of your health fitness...but in your success potential.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;USE your gym membership and you will be more successful in all other areas of life...&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;What could be more simple?&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;And, as Joe points out, it can be fun if you let it.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Thanks Joe for remaining so committed to others success.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Steve Little&lt;br/&gt;Founder, ThePerfectBizFinder</description>
		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hey Joe &#8211; This is a great question and you make some really great points in your post.</p>
<p>It COULD be argued that if a member is not using his or her membership then it might be a candidate for a &#8216;budget&#8217; cut&#8230;.After-all the value of any membership increases with use over time.</p>
<p>But there is another,more subtle but no less significant &#8220;value&#8221; perspective worth noting.</p>
<p>A recent international survey of the most successful people in business revealed 6 key traits that contribute to the generation of success.  They are, in this order:</p>
<p>1. Creativity<br />2. Independence and Self Reliance<br />3. Discipline and Determination<br />4. High Energy and Physically Fit<br />5. Risk Inclined<br />6. Excellent Communicator</p>
<p>CHECK IT OUT!  </p>
<p>Physical fitness is the 4th most significant trait of the most successful people!</p>
<p>(It is obvious even higher on the list if you are actually in the fitness industry)</p>
<p>The point is&#8230;next time you think you do not have time to go to the gym&#8230;.think about what it costing you NOT just in terms of your health fitness&#8230;but in your success potential.</p>
<p>USE your gym membership and you will be more successful in all other areas of life&#8230;</p>
<p>What could be more simple?</p>
<p>And, as Joe points out, it can be fun if you let it.</p>
<p>Thanks Joe for remaining so committed to others success.</p>
