I will improve hydration by drinking an additional 53oz of water each day. I will do this by drinking additional servings of water or by drinking water in place of other less healthy beverage options.

I will help others in need and prevent useful items from going to landfill by donating 10 items.

I will promote a positive environment and uplift others by performing 1 random act(s) of kindness.

I will attend or watch a recording of a webinar 60 minutes long covering one or more healthcare sustainability issues.

I will write down three things every day that I am grateful for every day.

Lighting makes up approximately 10% of hospitals' energy use on average. I will save energy by turning off unnecessary lights when not in use and when I am the last one to leave a space.

I will schedule coffee breaks, lunches, and/or check-in meetings with 2 coworkers to promote connectivity in my workplace.

I will adjust my thermostat down 2 degrees from usual when I use the heat, and up 2 degrees when I use air conditioning.

I will purchase produce and/or meat from a local farmers market or food co-op to make 2 locally-sourced meals.

I will spend 15 minute(s) per day practicing Mindfulness and/or Meditation.

I will repair an item, such as clothing or an appliance, for myself, a friend, family member, or neighbor.

I will commit to getting 30 more minute(s) of sleep each night to achieve at least 7 hours per night.
