It’s Time for a Fresh New Start!

Most of us will be happy to see the year 2020 in our rear-view mirror. While it might still be awhile before our lives return to normal, there are still many things within our own control. Resolutions are all about change and self-improvement, either stopping bad habits or trying to develop good ones.

Our EAP counselors study the dynamics of change and offer insight into how to make resolutions that will stick: Make meaningful goals about what you’d really like to change or accomplish. • Be realistic. Don’t overdo it. • Focus on one or two goals you’d most like to accomplish. • Go in with a concrete plan. Set aside the time, money and effort you need to be successful. • Share your goal and ask for support. • Expect setbacks. It can take months to establish a new habit or routine so keep trying. • Be positive. A resolution shouldn’t be something you dread, it should be something that will improve your life. • Focus on the positives that the change will make in your life, not the hard steps you need to take to get there.
