The Happiness Project
I don’t know why I haven’t seen this project before, but The Happiness Project looks like a good one which would work in easily if you already keep a journal of any kind. While researching online I found the Happiness Project and have been there reading all manner of really interesting things since.
The project is run by Gretchen Rubin, who began the website when she offered some free charts that have helped her stick to her resolutions. The response was overwhelming and the website was born. Rubin is writing her book, The Happiness Project available late next year, but the website describes the book as “a memoir about the year I spent test-driving every principle, tip, theory, and scientific study I could find, whether from Aristotle or St. Therese or Martin Seligman or Oprah.”
Rubin’s style is bright and easy to read and her interests are wide and varied. I’m sure you’ll find plenty to enjoy there. Perhaps you might even create your very own Happiness Project, which would make the author only too happy. She’s given herself the description of “happiness evangelist.” There’s sure to be plenty there to inspire you to write in your journal, too.
