Ask yourself… Does “going the extra mile” mean repeatedly sacrificing my well-being?  Are unhealthy behaviors consistently rewarded? Is it expected that I take my laptop on vacation? Is it expected that I work through lunch? What if I took a 15 minute walk outside during the workday? What if I didn’t take work home with me? What if I didn’t answer emails at 9 pm (or midnight)? What if I didn’t keep my smart phone on my night stand?What if I turned it off on occasion? Cultural Norms Self-Assessment

Editor's Notes

  • #5: Chronic disease are ongoing, generally incurable illnesses or conditions such as heart disease, asthma, cancer, and diabetes. These diseases are often preventable, and frequently manageable through early detection, improved lifestyle choices, and lifestyle modifications. 26% of Americans have multiple chronic conditions.
  • #10: Close to 17% GDP. Congressional budget office estimated that up to 1/3 of health spending or $700 billion did not improve Americans’ health outcomes. Treatment of chronic disease is responsible for 75% of total health care spending – close to $2 Trillion. When we look at hourly cost of health benefits in the manufacturing sector, the US is $2.38 compared to France at $2.17, Canada at $0.86, and the UK at $0.40.
