As the week has gone on, doing a journal each morning and night has become nearly automatic. Trying out the five-minute journal has been nice. I really enjoy trying to think of things that I am grateful for and things that I think will make the day great right off the bat in the morning. Then, at night, reflecting on the day and thinking about what actually made the day awesome, and comparing it to my earlier “predictions.”
While I do enjoy the method I’m using, I sometimes struggle to just put something on paper. I’m the type of person to overthink things, and often I find myself digging too deep to try and fulfill the sections of the five-minute journal.But regardless of how long it may take me to jot down a few things from my head, I always get it done.
Ensuring I get my journal written each day took quite a bit of thought when I was starting, but with the help of a little app called Habits, things have gotten significantly easier. I am unsure for you Apple users, and does anyone even use Windows phone, are they still a thing? But the app I am using is on Android. There are a ton of habit building apps out there, but what I love about this app is that there’s no unnecessary fluff. When installing it, I saw something I don’t think I’ve ever seen before when trying out an app. On the screen listing any required permissions for the app, i.e. Contacts, Location, Files, etc., a message popped up that said, “This app requires no additional permissions.” I knew that I would enjoy it. As of right now, I use the app to notify me and track if I’ve written my journal and accomplished a daily reading goal I’ve decided to set for myself. The evening journal is also a good notification as a sort of nudge to get ready for bed.
Overall, I’m enjoying the idea of journaling each day. Helps just add some structure to the morning and night, as well as helps at least a bit with the spiral of madness that is one’s own thoughts. As mentioned before, I want to try different journaling methods, so tonight will be my last five-minute journal. For the next week, I will be trying out a combination of two methods. In the morning I will be writing morning pages, go figure. The idea behind morning pages is to simply write what comes to mind. My evening journal will be done in what I’ve found referred to as proprioceptive writing. The concept being, to simply let the pen follow your thoughts, not only following but also taking note of what runs thru the mind.
Hope your week is going well! I know mine has been!
