🌳 Is Journaling Worth Your Time?

QUOTE OF THE DAY

IS JOURNALING WORTH YOUR TIME?

Journaling is simply the act of thinking about your life and writing it down. That’s it. Nothing more is needed. But despite its simplicity, the daily journal has played a key role in the careers of many prolific people such as:

Charles Darwin, Marie Curie, Leonardo da Vinci, and Marcus Aurelius just to name a few

But why have so many of history's greatest thinkers spent time journaling? What are the benefits?

Nearly anyone can benefit from getting their thoughts out of their head and onto paper. There are too many benefits to count but just to list a few:

• Journaling provides proof of your progress.

• Journaling motivates you to make the most of each day.

• Journaling sharpens your memory.

• Journaling provides the opportunity to learn new lessons from old experiences.

So it’s not rocket science to realise that journaling has its benefits but although most people know that journaling is helpful, they never get around to making it a priority. How can we make journaling frictionless?

Here's the truth: There’s no one “right” way to journal. You can do it wherever you want and in whatever way you want. All you need is a piece of paper or a blank document. However, although there is no right way to journal, there is an easy way to journal…

Write one sentence per day.

The primary advantage of journaling one sentence each day is that it makes journaling fun. It's easy to do. It's easy to feel successful. And if you feel good each time you finish journaling, then you'll keep coming back to it.

A habit does not have to be impressive for it to be useful.

ACTIONABLE NEXT STEPS:

Try it. Whether it’s on a piece of paper, a sticky note, or your phone, write one sentence a day and see how it impacts your life over time.

A fantastic way to stay dedicated to it however is to make it feel special, pick up a nice pen and a decent notebook and you know that you’ve already invested in it so may as well make it work.

A fantastic notebook to use is a Dingbat one (you can’t get any better). Check them out HERE

TAKEAWAYS:

Journaling is a habit used by some of the sharpest minds in history, It would be foolish to ignore its potential impacts.
