New Year Resolutions for Journal Writers
New Year Resolutions for Journal Writers
Whether you want to start, continue or complete your journal in 2013 here are 5 journaling resolutions to kick off the New Year.
1. KEEP YOUR JOURNAL VISIBLE
Put your journal somewhere where you will see it so that you remember to write in it. If you shove it in the bottom of a drawer you might forget about it. Allow yourself some quality time to complete it with your favourite drink.
5. TAKE YOUR TIME AND HAVE FUN
Enjoy the process, share you memories as you go along, ask others what they remember and perhaps fill in a few pages with your loved ones. You don't have to complete it all at the same time. Make a few notes on post-its and stick them in the relevant sections and come back to it later. Sometimes it is good to go away and reflect on your thoughts before you commit them to paper. If your journal was given to you as a gift then the person who gave it to you is really interested in hearing about you and your story, so it is worth taking the time and effort to complete it.
