My buddy Dan Reinhold is back today to share some more work at home humor with you. Enjoy!

Sometimes is a nice word, but not always a good policy.

To say “Sometimes I like to watch the sunset and reflect positively on the day” would be good. However, to say “Sometimes I do what I know I need to do and sometimes I don’t” is really not so good, especially over time.

Now when you work in a home office setting, it’s a really bad policy. It’s all about you in this case – you’re the results getter… or not. That applies to every aspect of your online business, including your personal fitness.

What do you know you need to do in your online business fitness? Write content, promote it or be active in social media? Something every working day, even if it’s not always the same thing.

And what do you know you need to do in your personal fitness? Perform a little resistance exercise, work on actively completing household tasks as work breaks or get social in the park with the dog for a half hour?

Something every working day, even if it’s not always the same thing. No dog? No problem, just leash the fish, toss him on a skateboard and you’re good to go.

Let’s get a little Zen here for a moment. You and your business are one. Because that is so, Grasshopper, you share a need for exercise each day to stay healthy together. Energy spent doing things helps create energy to do more things.

Make sure you both get your juices flowing!

I hope that you enjoy the weekly dose of work at home humor that Dan has been sharing with us here. It’s so true what they say… laughter really is the best medicine.

I encourage you to check out Dan’s blog WAHumor.com frequently to keep you healthy and maintain your work at home sanity

It’s time for a little work-at-home humor with another guest blog post by my friend Dan Reinhold. Enjoy and please share your comments below to let Dan know how much we appreciate how he sprinkles some fun into home office fitness…

How do YOU keep your sense of work-at-home humor (WAHumor)?

Peek at a joke site? Scope out SpongeBob when the kids aren’t looking, or even home? Tickle your son’s tarantula?

Nawww, I could never do that either. I’ve seen too much SpongeBob.

Humor’s been called a lot of things and a lot of different names, but I’ll tell you what it really is: a muscle.

Don’t bother digging out your old anatomy book and looking for it there, although “humerus” might throw you a little. It’s an INVISIBLE muscle, but every bit as real as all the others.

Think about it: What happens when you don’t use your muscles? What changes occur? How do you feel?

You experience the same things when you don’t exercise your humor muscle daily, even if only a bit. Every part of you needs it, from your head to your toes.

Remember Ebeneezer Scrooge? He started working that humor muscle and BAM! Did himself a world of good, not to mention everyone around him.

Naturally, because you work at home, WAHumor.com should be part of your daily humor exercise routine and attitude-nourishing diet. Share some of your own now and then and the results are doubled.

That’s a good thing to keep in mind when your three year old Michelangelo wannabe has demonstrated his artistic flair on the hallway wall or Fido has dined well on your last printer ink cartridge. Look for the humor first, it’s good for you.

It’s good for everybody!

Thanks for sharing this humorous and enlightening blog post with us Dan. Holy Crabby Patties… how did you know that I watch SpongeBob when the kids are in school

Here’s your weekly work-at-home-humor guest post from my buddy Dan Reinhold…

You work at home. You’re stressed out about all you need to do, the refrigerator is calling “Yoohooooo” and your house feels like a zoo.

Boo hoo!

Still, you’ve got your reasons and you’re determined to see it through. Busy, busy, busy!

If you’re reading this, more congratulations are in order. Getting and staying in better shape is oh so important to maintaining yourself, but also your business. Scott’s home office fitness program helps…a LOT.

But remember, health and fitness is more than wiggling your tushie and munching sensibly.

Ever since the correlation was first discovered, scientists have been heaping up a big pile of evidence that stress is bad for you. Recently they restated the obvious, but also added that there’s bad stress (distress) and good stress (eustress). Eustress includes exercise.

And exercise includes…laughter.

Laughter is fantastic exercise. Remember your last good laugh? The way you felt? You got more good than you knew, and for nothing! Endorphins, serotonin, a little ab workout, some good oxygen uptake. You didn’t even need to change into your gym shorts.

Here’s my tips for adding some good, quick WAHumor style workouts to your day:

If you have kids, pets, spouses/significant others/snugglebunnies, friends and/or family in your workday, you have sources of both kinds of stress. Look a little bit harder for the humor and indulge yourself in a show of appreciation. Even a smile when you think about it is good for you!

Get goofy when you’re about to snap. Dance the Hokey Pokey with your kids… teenagers included, the look on their faces alone is worth it, or the dog, the hermit crab, but not the mailman or the cat. It’d stress them out, trust me.

Visit WAHumor.com. Grab a chuckle, leave a comment. Ask a question, make suggestions! We’re dedicated to “The Light Side” of the stress issue. If you ever hear of a Darth Dan, I guarantee it won’t be me.

Scott must’ve known I was good for something after all, or he wouldn’t have invited me to be a regular guest blogger here. Now if he could just convince my wife of that…

P.S. I’ve been seeing a lot of challenges lately and even taken part in a few. I have an idea for a challenge of my own…

I’m excited to introduce a new feature of the Fat Loss Quickie Blog. My friend Dan Reinhold will be providing you with a daily dose of Work-At-Home-Humor. You already know that I love to make fitness fun and adding Dan’s witty humor into the mix is sure to make our home office fitness experience even more enjoyable.

For Dan’s opening act he did some research to see if I was the home office fitness pioneer. He dug deep and discovered that someone did in fact pave the path ahead of me. Check this out…

Hi, I’m Dan Reinhold of WAHumor.com, the work at home humor site.

So you think Scott is the home office fitness pioneer? Think again!

First there was Adam. Hey, that sounds familiar…

But I think it’s safe to say that Scott has definitely improved on the concept.

He’s also realized that true fitness is more than just the body. It’s the mind too. It’s not just along for the ride, after all. All work and no play can tire out your mind and leave your poor body lying around waiting for direction.

That’s the reason Scott asked me to be a weekly guest blogger here. A weekly dose of WAHumor goes a long way toward meeting your home office fitness and business goals.

Please allow me to announce “WAHumor Wednesday”!!

A little heavy breathing, some giggles…what’s not to love??

So, look for me each Wednesday. I’ll be looking for you too.

P.S. On the scary side, I’ll be joining in the home fitness fun here with you with a quick weekly update. Now where’d I put those extra-stretchy sweatpants??

P.P.S. Something in particular you’d like me to talk about? Kids? Pets? Freaky family and friends? Down days? Pop it in the comments and I’ll be glad to give it a whirl!
