Every month, Action for Happiness produces a calendar packed with actions we can all take to help create a happier and kinder world.

This October, the charity’s calendar focuses on daily activities ‘to help you be a realistic optimist’ and remain focused on what really matters.

After writing down your most important goals for this month, other suggestions include:

• Take a first step towards a goal that really matters to you
• Re-frame a problem you face as a potential opportunity
• Write down three specific things that have gone well recently
• Share an inspiring idea with a loved one or colleague
• Let go of the expectations of others and focus on what matters

The calendar is free to download as a PDF or image file (JPEG) in 16 different languages. You can also download the actions straight to your calendar using a Google Calendar or iCalendar file.
