Achievement: Are you stretched or stressed?
Written by Ezra Hewing, Head of Mental Health Education, Suffolk Mind
Suffolk Mind and its unique Ipswich wellbeing centre, Quay Place, focus on need for achievement.
Are you feeling like you need more of a challenge in life? Do you have personal goals and aspirations which really get you motivated to do more? Is there a skill or a talent that you’ve always to nurture and develop? This is what your emotional need for achievement is all about.
