How To Use The App

 

Step 1:

We recommend you start with creating "Your Happiness Roadmap". At the top of the main menu, you'll see an option. Click on that. This roadmap contains questions that prompt you to think about yourself and your life, helping you gain greater self-awareness and encouraging you to set goals that align with your strengths and core values - so that you can feel truly fulfilled once you achieve all the goals you set yourself to achieve.

• What makes you happy and how often you want to integrate that into your life?
• What makes you unhappy? Can you do anything to change it?
• What are your strengths and weaknesses? Are you doing things that align with your innate talents and who you are?
• What qualities or habits would you like to improve?
• What and who are you grateful for?
• What have you achieved so far that you're proud of?
• What have you overcome?
• What lessons have you learned?
• What is your definition of success?
• What are your dreams? What do you want to achieve in life?
• What is holding you back? What are your fears?
• What do you want to achieve in a year's time?

This is so that you can plan to integrate your answers from this section into your daily life over the next 100 days or the next 12 months.

What about throughout the week and the day? What makes The Happiness Planner different from the calendar apps out there?

Instead of focusing on your productivity like the other planners do, and The Happiness Planner is designed to help you become more positive, mindful, and happier by applying the simple practices of Zen habits and personal development into your daily life.

DAILY INSPIRATIONAL QUOTES

You start each day with an inspirational quote. 

TODAY I'M EXCITED ABOUT

This section was designed for you to think about something positive - something you're excited that day. It could be a little thing like the friend you're meeting for dinner or the important meeting you're going to have that day. The goal of this is for you to wake up everyday feeling positive, inspired, and excited - which, if you could feel like this at the start of every day, you already set yourself up for a good day. :) 

SCHEDULE

You can keep track of your schedules, appointments, meetings, and any event that happens at a specified time and date. You can set reminders, set the location, and even take a photo of the note and save it under that item.

TO-DO's

We all have an endless list of things to do. Our To-Dos is designed to help you prioritize your focus to the maximum. You can star important items that you need to do first.

Our To-Dos allows you to re-order your tasks so you can prioritise and focus on one thing at a time, maximizing your work flow and productivity level. You can re-order by pressing on the task you wish to move and then drag it up and down. 

You can change the date of an unfinished task to another date.

Unfinished to-do items can now be carried over to the next day. You need to enable it under Settings. 

You can mark completed tasks as completed by pressing on the items and push them to the right.

You can delete a task by pressing on the task and push it to the left.

 

EXERCISES & MEALS

Exercises and meals are important and we should not ignore that what we put into our body stays in our body. A bad meal can't be removed with exercises. At the same time, exercises are important in keeping our mind and body balanced, building our cardio strengths, helping us focus, and releasing stress.

If you care about your well-being, I'm sure you exercise regularly and eat healthy. If you're not already doing so and are thinking of changing your diet and lifestyle for the better, you can use this little section here to track your progress daily. 

DAILY REFLECTION

• GOOD THINGS ABOUT TODAY

Sometimes we get caught up in moments of frustration and fill ourselves up with negative energy. Then suddenly we feel like we have a bad day. But if you learn to shift your focus to the good things that happen, even though it looks like a glimpse of joy, it can change your whole perspective and your feeling about the whole day. Suddenly, the day doesn't seem so bad - you realize that there's good in everything. It all depends on what lens you decide to wear.

• WHAT I HOPE FOR TOMORROW 

The power of positive affirmation is phenomenal. Every wish-come-true starts with a thought. And then a thought gets fulfilled through actions and determination. Sometimes you have a good day; sometimes you don't. Thinking about what you hope for tomorrow can put you back into a positive frame of mind and help you see tomorrow as a new opportunity to make it a better day. Dream more. Wish more. Do more. And all your wishes shall come true.  

• WHAT & WHOM I'M GRATEFUL FOR

"Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, and confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend." - Melody Beattie

Sparing a minute or two at the end of the day to think about what you're grateful for can you appreciate life and feel happier as a result. Sometimes we can be overwhelmed with work and feel stressed with the responsibilities we have. Filling every day with gratitude can really help brighten our day.

Our app also lets you tag people from your contact list and send them a message showing your gratitude. :)

EVALUATE YOUR HAPPINESS, HEALTH, ENERGY, AND PRODUCTIVITY LEVELS

How you feel and how you spend your days each week varies. The goal of this section is for you to reflect on the day and that at the end of each week you can see how your happiness, health, energy, and productivity levels pan out. You can start to spot patterns and see improvement in your mood and energy level as you become more aware and conscious of your daily routines. In future versions, we will be able to send you monthly reports so you can see your progress in a more analytical way.

 

MONTHLY GOALS & MONTHLY REFLECTION

Separate sections for work and personal goals. 

 

• THE MONTH'S HAPPIEST MOMENTS

This is for you to look back and feel that after all, life is good. Regardless of challenges and obstacles you face in life, there are always good things. The key in being happy is to shift what you focus on - what you focus on expands and affects how you feel.

 

• THE MONTH'S STRUGGLES

"The greatest weapon against stress is our ability to choose one thought over another." - William James 

There are always things that annoy, disappoint, or upset you. However, the point of this is to reflect and to learn to look at these negative things from a positive point of view. Sometimes we can't see why things turned out the way they did and only time will give us the reason for why it happened which brings us to the next two points.

 

• HOW I OVERCAME THE STRUGGLES

"A smooth sea never made a skillful sailor."

We only become stronger when we are put to the test and when we have to go through situations where we have to push our limits. If our path through life is paved with rose petals and everything is always handed to us on a silver platter, we will never learn to build mental strength, resilience, patience, understanding, acceptance, and become the person that we desire to be. It is useful to reflect every now and then on what we had to go through, what we have learned, and what we have achieved to feel proud of ourselves and our achievements. Sometimes we get caught up in our own self-doubt and feel like we're not good enough. We need to keep looking back on what we have achieved and what we have become - even if we are just slightly better than what we were yesterday, 5 months ago, or last year. The key of this is to keep having faith in ourselves and to never stop becoming a better person which is the key to feeling fulfilled and happy internally.

 

• WHAT I LEARNED THIS MONTH

“You cannot tailor-make the situations in life but you can tailor-make the attitudes to fit those situations.” - Zig Ziglar

When one door closes another door opens. Everything happens for a reason and that one event always leads us to another. Whether that event leads to something better or worse depends on how we look at it, what we learn from what happened, and what we do from that point on.

Most of the time we see the negative things as they are. However, there is always a positive side to everything. Being happy doesn't mean you're living a flawless life with only good things in it. Being happy means that no matter what life throws at you, you see it with the positive lens and you are able to turn around the negative circumstances into lessons and opportunities. It's all about "your perspective". How you feel depends on how you see things. Practicing this over and over, you will soon become a positive and resilient person who can handle whatever life throws at you because you have a mind that is strong and still.  

 

• WHAT & WHOM I'M GRATEFUL FOR

Every month we go through events in life that may be normal and common or out of the ordinary. No matter how life is, it is worth remembering that there are things to be grateful for and people whom we should feel grateful for for having in our life. Taking a few minutes each day and month to reflect on this keeps our heart and soul happy. Moreover, you should express your gratitude and appreciation for those who have helped you in any way - emotionally, mentally, or physically. 

• WHAT YOU'D LIKE TO IMPROVE ON NEXT MONTH

Reflecting on the past week and thinking about what we could do better the following week without dwelling on the past and regrets is the key to successfully improving oneself. Most of the time we let our lives go by without actually pausing for a second to reflect. You could have been too hot-tempered this week. You could have been too lazy and inactive. You could have had a very bad diet. Next week is another week. Welcome it with a smile and see it as an opportunity for you make it better and become a better person.
