As a new year begins, many Postal Service employees are focused on exercising more and eating healthier.
But wellness is about more than fitness and diet — it can also mean saving more money, working on your career development or being more social at work or off the clock.
To help you meet your goals — whether they are health, financial, social or career — the USPS Health and Wellness team suggests taking a “SMART” approach.
According to wellness experts, this means setting goals that are:
• Specific: Make your goals concrete and detailed by writing them down.
• Measurable: How will you know that you met your goal?
• Achievable: Can your goal be accomplished in the proposed timeframe?
• Realistic: Do you have the resources needed to achieve your goal?
• Timely: When is the targeted date of completion?
