I commit to being the healthiest version of myself so that my children grow up with a healthy role model. It is so important to me that they feel good about themselves mentally and physically.

I excercise twice a week, but I would like to have a more consistent work out. I would like to try different fitness classes and excercise different muscle groups.

In the next 2 & 1/2 years if commit to continue toward my goals to meet before retirement.    1.  Consistently walk a mile in less than 15 minutes    2.  Attain and maintain a normal BMI    3.  Improve core strength and flexibility

For many years I have tended to everyone else's needs and wants, as a priority.  Planning to shift myself into being a priority as well, by making better meal choices and exercising more.  Taking it a little at a time...and not being too hard on myself when I fall short of my expectations! Good Luck EVERYONE!!!

i see goodness in most everyone and everything around me, but when I get stressed, I just can't see through the fog. Starting tomorrow, I will write down my gratitudes or goodness observations to read back later when the stress fog rolls in.

I really need to work on my self happiness and making time for myself. Being better at saying no to work and other commitments and making time mandatory for my family and life.

I will commit to taking one weekend day to do nothing but my hobbies and spending time with my loved ones without the interuption of work related duties. I have been taking my weekends/offdays back and it has made me much happier. I know that there will be times that I have to do some work from home but, now I realize that I have to set boundaries with that as I ...

I commit to spending time out in nature at least once a week.  It feeds my sould and I've denied myself that for too long.

I would like to help develop a program within my facility that makes it easier for patients to recognize staff who they feel has made a difference. I feel it is often the unhappy people who make their voices heard because to them it is worth the effort of contacting someone. I am hoping to help find a way to make it easy and timely for patients to voice their ...

Will work out 4 x's a week and weekends hike / walk !

In my current work environment, I often must work through breaks in order to complete tasks required for my patient load.  This then leads to an increase in stress, exhaustion and can eventually lead to nurse-burn out.   I will research ways to improve workload balance and in return hope this will also improve my occupational and emotional health ...
