125 – How to Start a Daily Journaling Habit (and What to Write About)

Podcasts

Ever since I was young, I’ve kept a journal. There were years where I religiously spilled my guts into a journal, my first romances, my deepest worries, my concerns.

Then, for many years I did not write. Many years. Like most of my 20s and part of my 30s.

Today I write daily. It’s become a habit that I’m keen to keep up. One that I make a priority each morning, before I dive into my day.

Here’s why…

About 20 years ago I came across Julia Cameron’s The Artist’s Way and started again, using her guidance, to write regularly. I bought a bunch of her books The Sound of Paper, The Artist’s Way at Work… and I ate them up.

I was in my late 20s and early 30s and so much was changing about my life I needed an outlet.

I was in my own business and there was a lot of confusion about what I was doing and where I was going. And it really helped.

In this episode I explain how I recently rediscovered the power of a daily journaling habit and how I got past the concern of not having anything to write or say.

Listen to hear:

  • How to start a daily journal
  • How a daily habit clears out the ‘junk file in your head
  • What to write about
  • How to get started even if you don’t consider yourself a write
  • Why taking pen to paper “primes the pump and the flow of ideas begins to move”

Also mentioned in this episode:

  • The Right to Write
  • The Artist’s Way

Here are some popular recent episodes:

  • How Clarity Leads to Powerful Actions
  • The Habit of Being Confident
  • It’s Time to Communicate Your Worth
  • The Hidden Side of Communicating with Confidence
  • Becoming a Big Deal in Your Niche with Amy Porterfield
