5 Essential Elements to Help You to Flourish
|
Taken from our full PERMA Model article, these five key elements of well-being can help you to flourish and to set yourself up for a bright and happy future! |
|
|
POSITIVE EMOTIONS
To experience positive emotions such as pleasure, joy, and inspiration, think about whether you get to use your talents and strengths in your current role. Do a Personal SWOT analysis to discover your strengths. |
|
|
ENGAGEMENT Minimize distractions to get "in flow" and to engage meaningfully with your work. Explore passion projects, learn new skills, and invest in interests and hobbies that make you feel happy. |
|
|
RELATIONSHIPS A positive support network is essential for your well-being. Build strong work relationships and nurture your connections with friends and family. |
|
|
MEANING
Do you feel that your work and life have meaning? Working with purpose as well as spending time with our family, volunteering, or performing acts of kindness can really improve our sense of meaning in life. |
|
|
ACHIEVEMENTS
Set goals to keep yourself motivated and focused. But don't obsess over your next "big win," as this can result in burnout. |
|
|
Visualize and Affirm Your Successful Future |
If you feel you're not devoting enough time or energy to accomplishing your dreams, then start now! First, identify what you truly want to accomplish in life.
