Never forget that writing is as close as we get to keeping a hold on the thousand and one things — childhood, certainties, cities, doubts, dreams, instants, phrases, parents, loves — that go on slipping, like sand, through our fingers. - Salmun Rushdie
Building the Framework
Even if you don’t have time to enter content for your entry, write an entry heading (for example: date, year and day).
The entry headings
provide space for content that you might want to add later and
create a sturdy framework forming a sustainable structure for your journal.
Why Journal Everyday?
It creates a habit that can be maintained during times of stress or preoccupation.
Structure and consistency alleviate the stress of decision-making.
Creates the groundwork for whatever it is you decide to do with your journal.
The daily practice of allowing space for structured reflection sends the message that you deserve having moments of self-care.
Every day is accounted for.
