I would like to start a journal of my life. It doesn’t have to be complicated, nor do I want it to be. Simple is best. Doesn’t have to be long entries either. 2 minutes a day about the past 24 hours writing about a positive experience I had. Or at least the workday. Whenever I feel like it. Preferably in the morning.
What is my one positive experience in the past 24 hrs?
It would be deciding to start this journaling habit. I got the idea from the book, The Slight Edge, which I still need to read btw. The book was gifted to me from my friend Luke. The book states that writing about a positive experience in the past 24 hrs reinforces the positive experience in your mind, thus creating new neural pathways. This excites me, and I am looking forward to seeing what comes about from it. Kind of meta, I know, but yes, deciding to start this journal is my one positive experience. The act of writing has recently been a pretty positive experience for me. I like how my awareness blurs the edges and focuses just on the screen and the feel of my hands and fingers touching the keyboard is another wonderful feeling. Right now it is 6:11 pm. I would like to do this habit in the morning with a cup of coffee to boot :) This already feels like a positive habit to incorporate into my life.
