Take a few moments to write a letter or make a phone call to someone you love and let them know how much you care. It will mean the world to them, and it’ll make you feel pretty great too. Even if your family is not perfect, they’re probably the ones who are there for you when you need them. Remember to express gratitude for them daily. Remember that you have choices when it comes to your job. Choose a company that values a healthy work-life balance. It’s OK to respectfully decline additional assignments that would require you to work beyond your assigned hours. Your job is important, but there are other things in life that are just as important. Consider making a list of everything you have ever wanted to experience in life. Then start crossing them off one by one and watch your happiness (and your comfort zone) expand dramatically. Spend a few minutes every day doing something that you love and that brings you joy. You are the only one who knows what’s best for you. Allow yourself to be open to endless possibilities. When envisioning your dream, remember the mantra, “this or something even better.” Make time to go on a nature walk, take a nap, or meditate each and every day. Pick a cause that is special to you and consider donating a bit of your time or money to help someone in need. Take some time to get crystal clear on what you are passionate about. You can then begin looking for work that speaks to these passions.
