EHP FYI
Newsletter from Employee Health Promotions
January Edition 2023
The hope and glimmer of a new year rings in with fireworks and lofty visions of self-improvement. We love to set new goals in conjunction with turning the calendar to a new year, but many of us (nearly 80%) abandon our New Year’s resolutions by February. This new year, consider smaller, more achievable goals by utilizing micro-goal setting, a different perspective on your timeline and the resources provided to you.
Micro-Goal Setting
With micro-goals, you set realistic expectations. Your micro-goals are easier to meet, and when you achieve them, you build confidence and momentum.
Timelines
Consider not adding a timeline to your goal–the added pressure of a time constraint can add unnecessary stress. If you do set a timeline, be sure to set a realistic one! Be gracious to yourself and use the micro-goals as guideposts to keep you on track.
Resources For Every Employee
Employee Health Promotions is made possible through a partnership with South Central Service Coop. It is the promotion of health and wellness activities for employees of Mankato Area Public Schools. This work influences the physical, mental, economic and social well-being of employees and in turn the health of their families and our community.
