Give a gift to your future-self and get your holiday planning done early. Planning ahead can save stress and allow you to be present, appreciate the time with friends and family, and enjoy the season. 
While the word often applies to the workplace, we can apply "productivity" to any aim. Being productive might mean writing a certain number of words each day, practicing an instrument regularly, or completing tasks needed for an ambitious DIY project.

To be happy, we need to feel growth—and creativity is an essential part of that process. It helps us learn new things, have fun, and connect with our senses and the world around us.

Research shows that reading can sharpen our minds, boost our moods, and help us understand ourselves and others. And most important, it’s fun! Doing things you enjoy is important to having a happy life, yet it’s all too easy for fun to get pushed aside by other activities. If you want to read more but struggle to make time for it, consider these tools and strategies to help jump-start your reading routine.
Meaningful connections are a key to a happy life. We may feel like friendships should come naturally, but they can require real effort. Whether your aim is to make new friends or strengthen existing friendships, these tips and tools can help you find new ways to connect.
For most people, outer order contributes to inner calm. Clearing clutter can make your home or workspace feel more serene, helps you save time spent searching for stuff, and creates more space for important items and activities.
Struggling to focus on tasks during the day or overwhelmed by racing thoughts before bed? Here, you’ll find a variety of tools designed to help you identify sources of inner clutter, gain more mental clarity and focus, and find strategies to cultivate inner calm.

About The Happiness Project

In 2009, Gretchen Rubin’s breakout book, The Happiness Project, became a New York Times #1 bestseller and revolutionized the way people approach personal development. Over the last decade, she has taken her approach to creating a happier, healthier, more productive, and more creative life off those pages and into the daily lives of her readers and listeners through her books, blog, podcast, online courses, and weekly newsletter.

Here, you’ll find all the practical tools, resources, and insights you need to start your own Happiness Project. There’s no one-size-fits-all solution—your Happiness Project is unique to you, based on your own nature, interests, values, and experiences. This collection is your personal happiness toolkit, where you can discover what tools work for you so that you can build the life you want, starting today.

As Gretchen Rubin continues to research, experiment, and share her observations and ideas about happiness and good habits, The Happiness Project will continue to grow.
