Get Started with Journaling
Making the decision to journal is usually far easier than actually beginning to journal. There is no right or wrong way to get started with journaling. Once you begin, you can shift your style or abandon your style for another that makes more sense or is a better fit.
Here are some great things to ask yourself before you start to journal.
How do I want to express myself when I journal?
How much time do I have to spend journaling?
Where do I want to do my journaling?
Is there an activity I love that I can use as a form of journaling?
What is my goal in creating this journal?
Answering these questions helps you choose the best method and time frame to begin journaling. Now all you need is to pick the method and time frame that suits you and begin.
Consider these things when making your decision to get started with journaling.
Tools Matter- Find a pen that is smooth and effortless to use. Decide if you love a notebook that lays flat, a bound blank book or notepad. If you are using an electronic notebook make sure you are in a comfortable space where ever you work. Be on the lookout for tools that will make journaling fun and time well spent.
