Get Paid to Be Healthy

October 14, 2019 | fitness, health, motivation

Disclosure: This post contains affiliate links, meaning when you sign up through my link, I make a small commission.

I often hear people say things like “well if I got paid to workout I would do it more often!” What if I told you that there IS a way you can? What if you could get paid for doing simple things like walking and writing healthy tweets and getting sleep. Um, yes please! Count me in!  I recently stumbled upon an article about an app called MyAchievement.com that allows you to connect different fitness trackers and social media such as FitBit and Twitter, and it gives you points for certain healthy things you do.

The points add up and turn into CASH. Yes, like money deposited into your PayPal account cash. Here is a screen shot to show you what I am talking about. This one shows the different activities I have done in the past two days to earn points, and I literally had to do nothing “extra” once I set everything up.

So yesterday I did normal things like tweeted a healthy tweet, weighed myself, went to sleep, and walked around (NOTE: I wish I slept 9 hours ha! My FitBit read “laying in bed watching the Bachelor” as actually sleeping. Oops!) and checked my points at the end of the day on MyAchievement.com I am literally making passive income for just doing my normal thang.

There are so many apps you can connect, like your Garmin, Apple health, Map my run, My fitness pal, FitBit, and Runkeeper (and lots more!) Connect your Twitter account to get points for tweeting health related things. It really is that easy.

You can also earn points for answering questions in the app and taking quick and easy surveys.

A few more details:

-You can earn up to 80 points a day for for tracked activity like running, biking, and walking.

-You can earn up to 6 points a day for posting healthy things on Twitter, or Foursquare.

-Points expire one year from the date in which they are earned

-Once you reach 10,000 points ($10) you can get paid! Holla!

QOTD: What apps would you connect? Ok, now go sign up, it’s free!

If you haven’t been to either, add them to your list! Dollywood has tons of great rides and shows (we are season pass holders so go often!) and Downtown Flavortown has amazing food, an arcade and duck pin bowling. They were kind enough to have us come visit and eat with them. 

Are you going anywhere fun this summer?

Tiny home + lake views + s’mores = the perfect T Tiny home + lake views + s’mores = the perfect Tennessee weekend 🌲🔥🏡
We spent a few days at Natchez Trace (part of @thousandtrails), and it was exactly what we needed—peaceful, fun, and full of charm. #100daysofcamping 

We stayed in the cutest little tiny house (shoutout to “Sadie” from @petite.retreats!), and filled our time with:
✨ Lake strolls
⛳️ Mini golf showdowns
🏀 Basketball games
🔥 Campfire s’mores
🦆 duck feeding
…and plenty of unplugged moments together 💛

This spot truly has it all—whether you’re glamping, RVing, or just looking for a getaway that blends nature and comfort.

😎 90’s summer loading….. If you grew up in 😎 90’s summer loading…..

If you grew up in the 90’s like me, you know we had THE BEST summers. They were simple, but magical. Yes sometimes we got bored and fought with our friends, but the freedom and fun was so memorable. 

In today’s world of screen time and filling every second of the day with “fun” for our kids so they never have to be bored, it makes me sad that they won’t experience what we did. So I am trying to recreate a 90’s summer the best way I can.

Will we still travel? Of course, it’s my job. But when we are home, I’m not filling every second with fun. I’m making her figure it out. Read a book. Do some chores. Then just…go. Play. Be a ten year old while I work. Then in the evenings we can play some more, together, while I tell stories of all the crazy and fun things I did as a kid during those special 90’s summers. ☀️ 🩷
