How to encourage people to become more active?

So a thought that has been on my mind for a while now is: How do you encourage people to become physically active???

I mean in elementary and high school we used to have recess, lunch break and gym class where we could go and have fun. However in later years of high school and in university/college, it isn't mandatory to participate in any activity. I have seen many students that lead a very sedentary life. There is no time to fit in working out when there are books to read, papers to write or exams to study for. What people sometimes forget is that in order to have a healthy mind we need a healthy body. We need to take care of it by eating healthy and being physically active.

How do you encourage people to get moving???
