We're just over a week in to the New Year. Did you make a resolution this year? How is it going? If you resolved to take Steps to Better Health in 2015, how did the first week go? If you were able to complete your first action plan for 2015, congratulations! If you didn't complete your first action plan, don’t be discouraged! Make this week's action plan a little more specific, and have confidence that you can complete what goal you set.
Participants of the Stanford University self-management programs, will recognize the process for setting achievable goals or action plans. Some questions to ask yourself are: What specifically will you do? How much will you do? When will you do it? How often will you do it? How confident are you that you can achieve your set goal?
If you want to learn more about our self-management programs, there are several that have just started around the state or will start in the next week. Your action plan for this week could be: I will sign-up to attend one six-week self-management course in a city near me. How confident are you that you can sign-up for and attend the first (or second) class of the six-week session? These run for 2.5 hours and are held once a week. Check out classes near you today!
