A Good Plan

We believe: the most important book in your life should be about your life. A Good Plan is not only a diary because right now everyone of us has more than just appointments on their mind. We provide you with 50 pages to take an inventory of your life: what makes you happy? What are your needs? How can you take better care of yourself? These questions get straight down to business but A Good Plan is not an easy wellness-book that is constantly advising you to only see the positive. It is about true, deep, real insight without clichés, gibberish and self-optimisation.

Good needs to become a habit and reflection a routine. A diary that accompanies you every day is ideal for that. In the weekly view you will find space for your appointments on the left-hand page, with the mindfulness labels you gain a quick overview on important factors like sleep, mood and social contacts. The right-hand page is dotted and dedicated to your tasks. In order to prioritise, the proven 1-2-3 technique is of help. The mindfulness tips are supposed to help you learn something about mental health and burnout prevention each week. Space for notes, quotes and hours of sunshine complete the picture. 

We don’t grow from our experiences but from reflecting on them. Taking a moment each month to reflect upon what we have experienced has an enormous slowing down effect. So, once a month, write down what happened, what you’re grateful for, what you did well and what has been rather difficult. The self-reflection psyche can give hints about your mental state.

First of all, in the monthly planner, you define goals and wishes for the four main areas of life: work, contacts, health and free time. Then think about what you’re looking forward to and what is going to be a challenge. Define up to six habits that you can then tick off each day in the monthly view.
