                                                        someone else with no expectation of a return. It is simply doing something
                                                        nice for someone else especially strangers. It is good for them and good
                                                        for your own wellbeing.

                                                        exercise and track them in these areas. They are included because of the
                                                        research showing their value for health, wellbeing and happiness.
                                                        Habit tracker to keep score

                                                        As part of your initial planning exercise you identified 8 habits you want to
                                                        track. These go in this section daily for you to track.

                                                        Your energy is your life force
                                                        We all have high and lower energy days. High energy days are the most
                                                        productive. However low energy days are sending a message we may need
                                                        to recharge and focus more on self care. The purpose of tracking it is to
                                                        see the impact it has on you and your day, notice trends and identify ways
                                                        to keep yourself more energised.

                                                        Your mood impacts each moment

                                                         Similar to energy this is about taking responsibility for your outlook and
                                                         creating meaningful days. Track the trend and learn from it.
