Intentional Planning

Intentional planning helps us achieve our goals and reduce anxiety. Follow the 4-step STAR method:

• S- Strategy: Review your upcoming goals.
• T-Tasks: Clarify and identify what tasks are to be done to achieve those goals, and prioritize them.
• A- Allocate: Resources like time and energy are limited. Allocate your tasks in a way that is least cognitively demanding, takes the least amount of time, and is yet having the maximum impact. Improvise as you go.
• R-Results: Say no to unnecessary requests, respecting your time. But if you say Yes to a request, follow it through. Work for yourself and not for obligations.
