One simple and powerful way to improve your life is to express yourself by writing down your thoughts and feelings on a daily basis or whenever you choose to write.
This is called journaling. Whatever you write down is for you and your eyes only. It is nobody’s business; so you can write freely and you can be flexible.
Journaling can be likened to you thinking on paper. For example if you are in a situation where you need to make an important decision you can write down your thoughts about the situation in your journal and read it over a few times to help you to make the decision.

You can journal about everything and anything. Here are some examples:
- You can journal about what is going on in your life.
- You can journal about your daily activities such as the time you woke up and the things you plan to do for the day.
- It is good to keep a daily gratitude journal.
- You can start a Bible journal.
Journaling can improve your mental health and self-esteem. It is also a very good tool for self-awareness because it is like writing letters to yourself.
You can start journaling now. You don’t need to have done it before. All you need is a notebook and a pen. You can write anything you want to write and anyhow you want to write because it is your personal space.
When you read your journal in the next few years to come you will realize that the past years are not quite gone as you might have thought because a few lines in your journal will bring back some memories.
