Prioritize positivity and commit to kindness.
We all want to be happy, but it's not always easy to know where to start.
The PERMA Model was developed by renowned psychologist Martin Seligman and illustrates the five essential elements needed for lasting well-being!
Positive Emotions
Positive feelings like peace, joy and curiosity are crucial to leading a happy life.
Utilizing your talents at work and surrounding yourself with things that you love are great ways to introduce positive emotions into your daily routine.
Engagement
How engaged are you in your career? Do you use your free time wisely?
Cut out distractions to get "in the flow" and engage meaningfully with your work by exploring passion projects and learning new skills. Invest in interests and hobbies that make you feel happy and engaged.
Good Relationships
No one can go it alone. 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 and committing to kindness can help you to see the bigger picture.
Achievements
Set goals to keep yourself motivated and focused. But don't obsess over your next "big win," as this can result in burnout.
