When It Comes to Your Health, Are You the Buffalo or the Cow?

hen I was growing up, my grandfather used to tell me many stories. Here is the story of the Buffalo and the Cow. Out on the plains there are two animals that graze the field: the buffalo and the cow. On those large flatlands you can feel storms coming from far away and see the walls of clouds barreling toward you. The buffalo picks its head up, sees the storm, and runs straight toward it. While the cow immediately runs TDINDUSTRIES.COM
in the opposite direction, away from the storm. The buffalo, strong and brave, quickly came out on the other side of the storm. While the cow, trying to outrun and avoid the storm, would actually run with it, staying in it longer, until it finally passed the cow, tired and worn. Partners, be the buffalo; have the mindset of proactively getting regular medical checkups and preventive screenings.
Regular exams allow healthcare professionals to detect and treat issues early. And it protects us all from unexpected healthcare costs, which keeps our insurance programs strong. Your Total Rewards team is here to help you on your health journey. And don’t forget, TD rewards you for getting your annual exams. Written by Jackie Britto, TDIndustries Benefits Analyst
