The Goals of Keeping A Journal
- You can bring your problems to a journal. Journaling is you figuring things out and clearing your head.
- Leave your destructive thoughts in your journal. We all carry around destructive thoughts about the things that went wrong. Instead of holding our thoughts in our head, we can put it down on paper.
- Keep a journal for your grandchildren. Fifty years from now, our own notebooks will be around to astonish and inspire our grandchildren, unlike our tweets and Facebook posts.
- Journal for your future self. Produce something that you can look back on and learn from.
Forget all the rules others impose about a journal. Do what works for you.
