Why we created the Make It Happen planners
The hardest part of any project is getting started. Not only on the project itself, but day after day when you’re getting worn down. That’s why I created the Make It Happen line—it helps you tap into your activation energy, a concept developed by a Harvard psychologist that says if you can make starting something easier, your likelihood of doing it rises dramatically. You can make it happen—we’re with you all the way!
Kasia Gospos, CEO, Leaders in Heels
High achievers review their goals regularly.
Did you know that only 1% of the population write down their goals and review them regularly? These people tend to be among the most successful!
The Leaders in Heels ‘Make It Happen’ 12-month Planners have exercises which help you determine your passion and values and use those to set your big goals and projects for the year.
Once you have your goals, quarterly and monthly planning pages get you off and running, while quarterly and monthly reviews let you see how you’ve gone, and what you need to adjust.
Get clear and act with purpose
It all starts with living your life intentionally—and to do that, you need to be very clear on what you want.
The planner includes exercises to:
- Visualise your dream day
- Define your values
- Plan your legacy
- Set a big vision for your life
Translate your ideas into actions
The successful entrepreneur and leader Mary Kay Ash once said, “Ideas are a dime a dozen. People who implement them are priceless.”
Everything in this planner has been designed to help you translate your ideas into action, because we know that getting started is the hardest part.
Learn to use ‘activation energy’ to get you started
Activation energy is the amount of effort required for you to get up and do a particular task. The lower the effort, the more likely you are to do it. Achieving anything in life is a series of small steps. Activation energy gets you started. The momentum it generates keeps you going. You take one step, then the next, and the next again, and before you know it you’re on our way!
All our Make It Happen planners use the concept of activation energy to help you get started.
By having a dedicated space to record your “activation energy” task, and by breaking down your big goals into small, actionable components you can take on one at a time, you will build the momentum to reach the bigger tasks… and eventually make it happen!
Be productive, not busy
Time is precious, and you want to fill it with tasks that make a meaningful difference instead of busywork. It’s important to set out your intentions and goals for the year ahead, and define a practical action plan.
The planner includes:
- Handy tips for translating dreams into actionable tasks to include in your yearly, monthly, weekly and daily agendas
- A guide for setting yearly goals/projects
- Success routines planner to help you establish good habits
- Quarterly and monthly plans
- A quarterly challenge for your larger goals
- Weekly and daily priorities

The quotes focus on persistence, determination, confidence, resilience, courage, success, and all the qualities you need to make your dreams happen!

I love this planner and I bought a few more for my friends.

I love the layout and content of the planner. However, even though I knew the planner was going to be small I never anticipated how difficult it would be to write in the small spaces allotted in the planner. This planner would be much better if it was BIGGER. Also, I’ve only had the planner for a couple of weeks and the gold foil “Make It Happen” on the front of the planner is already rubbing off. I spent a lot on the planner and was expecting more space and higher quality (gold foil shouldn’t be rubbing off so soon).

I love this planner, I am living each day with purpose toward achieving my long term goals. This planner has helped me to break down my forever goals and create simple daily steps to achieving them. I finally feel like I am moving forward and happier with where I am at right now.

I’m wrapped with this planner! The quality of my answers are a result of the quality of the questions asked. I use the planner to organise my day in combination with my bullet journal to help me complete all my tasks. I enjoy the playful yet classy design, and the small tint/ touch of pink throughout. Very easy to carry. Looking forward to focus and achievement! 🙂

This planner is beautifully designed! the colors/covers and life planning pages are a wonderful asset to a planner. I bought it for the cover alone, HA. But do love the pages. I wish the weekly layout were simpler, but overall, it is a beautiful product, and helps me look deeper at my life plans.
