Finding Your Purpose
Amidst the fast pace of modern existence, it can be hard to hear your inner voice and live life according to your unique values. Work, family responsibilities and societal expectations can combine to drown out your search for meaning. However, you can live with greater purpose.
- Stop and take stock of your life. Decide if you’re adhering to your values or just going through the motions
- Find a quiet place and listen for your heart’s desires. Think: Is there a cause to which I’d like to devote myself? Is there a specific population I’d like to serve? Is there a certain art form I’d love to pursue?
- Sometimes our passions become so buried under life’s details that we lose them. Get specific about what fires you up, and try linking these interests
to service, e.g., your talent plus helping people = purpose
- With your new goal, build an action plan with achievable interim steps. Track your progress
Mind Your Mental Health
January is National Mental Wellbeing Month
Being mentally well means being in touch with your own emotional health, and proactively taking care of yourself to stay ahead of problems. It also involves having healthy relationships, plus maintaining good coping skills so you can bounce back when challenged by difficult circumstances in life.
- If you’re new to working on your mental wellbeing, try taking one small step toward being healthier, and stick with it
- Each day, make sure to do activities - such as creative hobbies - that are meaningful to you. Identify and work into your schedule the activities that reliably help you relax and recharge
- Strive to get 30 minutes of exercise per day, plus eat a balanced diet, and get 7 - 9 hours of sleep nightly
- Try some mindfulness. Slow down during your day and fully experience the present moment
