Create a health vision.

A health vision is critical to clearly visualize your [health] goals. The first step is to create a powerful, broad statement that describes who you want to be once you have met those goals. Think about a healthy future and what that might look like to you. Convert those thoughts into a short, clear statement: your health vision.

While there are many ways to write a health vision, one popular format is: “I want ______, so ________.” Examples include:

  • “I want to lose weight, so I have more energy to enjoy life.”
  • “I want to be physically fit, so I am no longer out of breath.”
  • “I want to have better balance between my work and personal life, so I have more quality time for myself and for my family.”
