Journaling: the habit, routine, and ritual

Making time to write down a part of our daily routine is one of our favorite ways to stay in tune with our intentions and to process emotions, questions, desires, and more to move along from dreaming and scheming to taking action. A journaling or writing practice is often the key that unlocks a wealth of power for creatives. By privately expressing your thoughts and emotions, you’re able to process them and come out on the other side to find a clear path. It sets you up for taking action toward your goal with your intentions in hand—an important habit for any creative entrepreneur.

PROMPTS FOR JOURNALING:

• WHAT IS MY BIGGEST CHALLENGE RIGHT NOW? HOW CAN I TURN IT INTO AN OPPORTUNITY?

• WHAT IS MY GREATEST DESIRE? WHAT ACTIONS OR BEHAVIORS WILL HELP ME FEEL THE WAY I WANT TO FEEL?

• WHAT AM I WORKING ON TODAY? WHERE DO I NEED HELP?

• I’M GRATEFUL FOR…

• WRITE A LETTER TO YOUR PAST SELF THAT TELLS YOU WHAT TO LOOK FORWARD TO AND WHAT NOT TO WORRY ABOUT.
