What Is Planning?

Planning refers to the thought process, strategies, and actions you take to solve a problem or reach a goal. It involves prioritizing and making compromises. Good planning is essential for reaching any desired outcome, including happiness.

Why is it important to build this skill?

Planning is probably the most overlooked, yet useful, skill for boosting happiness. Carefully thinking through the processes that will help you achieve happiness greatly increases the ease, speed, and likelihood of successfully reaching your happiness goals. Developing a well-supported strategy and approach ensures that you do eventually achieve your happiness goals.

​Activities to develop this skill:

Scheduling Happiness

There is no “right” amount of time to spend on your happiness. What is important is that you have a regular time scheduled - a time that your honor just like you would honor any of your other appointments. In this activity, you learn to schedule time for practicing your skills.

Accountability

​One of the ways people stick to their goals is by telling other people what their goals are. Then you have someone to check in on you. In this activity, you learn to be accountable for increasing your happiness.
