The week’s challenge involves getting a fun notebook! If you are not a paper/pencil kind of person – find a great app like one note to start your notebook.
The challenge is ending your day with journaling. This could be writing down what happened during the day, the emotions you are feeling, your worries, etc. Basically anything that comes into your mind – write it down. If you try and struggle with this, set a timer. Start with 1 minute. Don’t think about it – just start doodling if you have to.
We all have busy lives with lots of things going on. At the end of the day, we need to just “brain dump.” This is one of my favorite things to do especially with to do lists. Just write it all down and get it out of your head. Having your head cleared of all the things allows you to settle down to a good nights sleep.
Here are some more journal ideas:
– Write down specific things you were grateful for today.
– What is something you are most proud of today?
– What is something that didn’t go the way you wanted it to go? How could you have reacted differently?
– What are the most important things you need to get done tomorrow? What can stand in your way? What will you do if that happens?
– Reflect on your day – Who made you happy today? What did they do? Who did you make smile today?
