Setting up your planning section
The next area of your journal is for planning. It's a space to organise the strategy you'll need to reach your outcome. Whether the outcome be experiencing better emotions or working towards a tangible achievement. Having a variety of planning and scheduling tools will help you build a routine towards that realisation.
What planning tools do I need?
​​​
Planning tools include calendars, schedules and methods of review. This can include:
Yearly Planners
Monthly or weekly calendars
Daily schedules
Weekly or month reviews
Goal setting templates
​
Depending on what you're trying to achieve will depend on the most beneficial. If you're trying to improve your emotional well-being, a daily or weekly schedule can help find space in your routine you know will help create that shift. If you're after a tangible achievement, perhaps a yearly planner with monthly reviews will work best.
​​
Consider also how you use each tool. For example, a daily schedule can be used retrospectively - how much time you're spending on activities in your week that are helping you move forward in a meaningful way.​
