Welcome to a smarter way to improve your life—one that doesn't involve tackling everything at once. If you've ever felt overwhelmed by trying to 'fix' multiple areas simultaneously, you're not alone. The secret to sustainable growth lies in a simple monthly check-in using PERMA, a framework that measures five key dimensions of your well-being.
Understanding Your PERMA Dashboard
Think of PERMA as your life's control panel—a straightforward way to see which areas need attention. The acronym stands for:
- Positive Emotions: How you feel day-to-day
- Engagement: How absorbed you get in activities
- Relationships: The quality of your connections
- Meaning: Your sense of purpose
- Accomplishment: Your progress and achievements
Rather than vague hopes about 'being happier' or 'getting more organised', PERMA gives you concrete categories to assess. It's like turning on the dashboard lights in your car—suddenly, you can see exactly which area is blinking and needs your attention.
Why Monthly Rating Beats Constant Fixing
Here's the myth we need to bust: that you must overhaul everything simultaneously. The truth? Measuring your well-being regularly through quick ratings reveals patterns you'd otherwise miss. When you rate each PERMA area monthly, you spot trends before they become crises. You'll notice if your relationships score keeps dropping, or if your sense of meaning has been consistently low for three months.
This approach prevents the overwhelm that comes from trying to juggle too many improvements at once. Instead of spinning plates, you're making one deliberate adjustment at a time—and that's what creates lasting change.
Your Simple Monthly Routine
Ready to try it? Here's your monthly PERMA check-in process:
- Rate each of the five PERMA areas on a scale of 1–10
- Circle your lowest score
- Write one SMART action step (specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, time-bound) for that area
- Keep it tiny—something you can genuinely accomplish this month
For example, if 'Relationships' scored lowest at a 4, your SMART step might be: 'Schedule two coffee catch-ups with friends by the end of the month.' That's it. No grand gestures required.
Small Tweaks Create Big Results
The beauty of this system reveals itself over time. These small, focused improvements accumulate. Because you're measuring, you'll actually see the evidence of your progress—your scores will shift, and you'll spot which changes made the biggest difference.
When your lowest area improves, you simply re-rate at next month's check-in and choose the next small step. Rinse and repeat. It's a sustainable rhythm that builds genuine momentum without burning you out.
