To help people stick with their happiness projects, I’ve set up a sign-up sheet so you can add your name to the 2010 Year of Happiness challenge.

Energy
• February–
Love
• March–
Work
• April–
Money
• May–
Mindfulness
• June–
Order
• July–
Spirit
• August–
Fun
• September–
Parenthood
• October–
Friends
• November–
Attitude
• December–
Boot Camp Perfect
Of course, these categories are just my suggestions. You might choose to focus on very different areas for your happiness project.
January 1 is always a good time to make a resolution – 44% of Americans make New Year’s resolutions – so by adding your name now, you’re committed to taking action when January 1 rolls around. You might also consider using the online tools over at the Happiness Project Toolbox (bonus: you can see what other people are doing, which is fascinating.)
Also, check out the great material at Woman’s Day Happiness Project page . I particularly enjoyed this recent post on Gym Culture, Some Observations .
Make 2010 a happier year. Come on, get happy.
