Growth = Happiness

If you stop growing, stop progressing, not setting goals, we can end up feeling stagnant and drift through life!

We have all been there where we wake up one morning and can't believe that the year has flown by. We evaluate and find that nothing has changed, or even worse, we may have regressed!

If we don't self-assess in both our personal and professional lives and create a plan to help move us forward, to help us grow, we will be doing the same thing every day.

What sort of goals can you make for yourself?

Could it be financial? Savings or earning more? What do you have to do to get there? Write down your goal, and make a plan for how you will achieve that goal and set a date to complete that goal.

Could it be physical? Lose weight or tone? What do you have to do to get there?

Could it be with relationships? Be closer with your spouse or a loved one? What do you have to do to get there?

Could it be professional? Are you happy in your position at work? Are you growing as a dental hygienist? What do you have to do to get there?

Writing down your goals increases your chance of making change in your life by 42%!

Think about if you are renovating your home, you don't just take a sledge hammer and start. You choose the room, create the design and know what the end result will look like and make a plan on how you are going to get there!

We are almost into the last quarter for 2021! Where are you at with your personal and professional goals?

What SMART goal can you create to finish 2021 strong?

• S - Specific
• M - Measurable
• A- Attainable/Achievable
• R - Relevant
• T - Timely

If we aren't growing, aren't progressing, we can't fully be engaged in life and feel happy!
