PERSPECTIVE

Craving a more focused direction this year? Corral those mental, physical, social, and professional barriers. Build your tomorrow.

Mental Find your balance. Be present, mindful, and intentional. What does this entail?

1. Time block —get away from the digital world, 2. Celebrate tiny joys —whatever they may be, 3. Reflect on your day —Journal, 4. Listen intently to yourself and your surroundings , and 5. Reduce distractions .

Are you carving out time to renew? What are your priorities? Are you sacrificing for the appropriate things or are you sacrificing the important for the transient —evaluate the cost-benefit. Meditate to find your center. And most im- portantly, stop negative body talk. Value who you are and own yourself. If you want something better, YOU have the power to make it happen. Physical Sit less and move more. Stretch. Spend more time outside. Find a physical activity you enjoy (be about it). Eat more whole foods. Get quality sleep. Visit your doctor. Social Your environment influences all aspects of your life. What contributions are you individually making to enhance soci- ety? Whether realized or not, we all have a duty to improve the world in which we live. This is much more than re- porting to work and paying taxes. Volunteer and/or start something that has meaning to you. Everything starts with an idea and action. Be it your action or inaction—there is an impact. Don’t hesitate to do your part. It all matters. Professional So the world of work has shifted yet again; as it should. For some, self-identity is tied to their careers. Are you on track to meet your professional goals? If not, what are your barriers? As long as you are breathing, there is oppor- tunity to achieve. Setbacks may occur, but should be viewed as challenges not a derailment. If learning something new is daunting—start small.
