Good Day Plan

Downloadable, fillable PDF file of the Good Day Plan - a tool to help you design days that are perfect for you!

Think about what a good day at school or work looks and feels like for you.  Do you need coffee?  Do you need to listen to music first thing in the morning, or do you need some quiet time to start your day? Does it happen now? If not, what can you do to make it happen? Who can help you along the way? The Good Day Plan helps you make and stick to a daily plan.

About

The Good Day Plan is a simple tool to help you identify the factors that play a role in whether or not you have a good day. It allows you to view your day from beginning to end and helps you identify a structure or routine that enables you to have a good day. It gives you a backup plan in case something you had planned doesn’t happen as expected, and allows for better interaction with your network of support.

How to use the Good Day Plan

You and a teacher/parent/mentor visualize a good day and write down the steps to achieve it. Then, using the fillable template or web app, create an action plan to make your good day happen more often. The web app works on any internet-connected device or computer.
