Pledging gives you power
When you take the pledge, you commit to learning about the benefits available to support the well-being of you and your family. That means you’ll know where to go for help and how to use your benefits to make real changes in your life. You’ll find resources to help you reduce stress, improve relationships, reach your financial goals, stay healthy and much more.
It’s a new year, with new goals to strive for, so renewing your pledge is important. Explore your benefits and resources with fresh eyes – and check out what’s new for 2024.
Small victories add up
With help from your Costco benefits, there’s a lot you can do to make a difference in your life. Big goals are great, but small ones can also leave a lasting impact on your emotional, financial and physical well-being. For example, if you invest $100 per month in your 401(k) instead of spending it, you could end up with over $40,000 in 20 years. Or, if you swap soda for flavored or carbonated water, you’ll take in between 550 and 1,250* fewer calories per week — and reduce your risk for obesity and type 2 diabetes over your lifetime.
These small wins also improve your confidence. Any accomplishment releases dopamine, which boosts your mood, motivation and attention. And it signals you to keep at the activity again and again.
Big or small, whatever changes you decide to make in 2024, stick with them. Be sure to celebrate each success along the way.
Get the most out of your benefits and take the pledge! Make this the year to celebrate you.
