I know you have probably heard it before, but keeping a journal can have so many benefits.  A journal can be a variety of things- a diary of sorts, a form of therapy, a dream-list, a to-do list, or a project planner. It can boost our creativity, keep an account of projects brewing, capture thoughts and ideas, safely explore thoughts and feelings, or help us detail out a problem.

I have several journals and tend to them in different time lines.  One is my creative project planner, all of my creative ideas are jotted down to create from or refer back to, as time allows.  One is my prayer journal, people I pray for, things going on in my life, and scripture quotations.  Another is my idea journal, anything that pops into my mind that I will want to explore, refer back to, or look up more information about. Yet one more is full of quotes or scripture that I want to keep handy… I am in love with words and am a bit of a “quote-aphile”…

I encourage you to start a journal of your own, the experience could change your life.  As you explore more about yourself, your life, your projects or thoughts, you become more aware of everything, more intuitive, and begin a deeper relationship with who you are and want to be.  Use whatever you have handy or whichever medium you prefer… a blank journal, a notebook, your computer, to start recording your thoughts and ideas.  Let me know how it’s going!
