Welcome to the last post of this Health and Wellbeing Boot Camp.
The very first quote I offered in the opening post of this Health and Wellbeing Boot Camp Blog was from Ariane de Bonvoisin, and in this last post I am returning to her Principles, specifically number 8:

Way back in the fourth post of the Health and Wellbeing Blog, I introduced Steven Covey and his 7 Habits of Highly Effective People. His first habit is ‘be proactive’ and his seventh gives us the title for today’s post – he advises us to ‘sharpen the saw’.
