Journaling benefits what’s this about?
What’s journaling for starters? It’s taking time each day probably at night before you go to bed in a quiet space to reflect on the days events and what has come up for you .
Write it down in your own words and look for patterns or emotions that keep returning.

What do they mean for you? Your answer will give you insights into your inner thoughts and world, giving you insights perhaps not previously reached.
Other benefits are that you are using more of your faculties, like composition, experience, sorting and storing the conclusions in your brain for future use.

Remember perception is everything.

What does this mean? How we perceive our world internally and externally determines how we respond to events and most importantly what we tell ourselves because that determines our emotions and our responses.

Our results flow from these emotions and thoughts or self-talk.

How is this a benefit you may ask? well if your life is busy, busy and you want to sort out priorities and find what’s important to you, journaling will certainly help you do that.

Once you’ve worked out what’s important then it is less likely the unimportant things will distract you so you can keep focused and achieved your goals or outcome that you want.

Journaling can help you work through challenges to find more options or choices. You can see how different opportunities sit with you until you decide on a specific course of action.

Our Life Choices Help Shape Our Reality

Life choices are important as they determine our reality
Life Choices help shape our reality

Our life choices help shape our reality.

Have you ever wondered how our life and our reality is created?
It follows our thoughts, emotions, choices and actions, leading to results in that order.
This means our life choices are important and we need a little time to choose our response when an event occurs, rather than just reacting to it.

Our life choices do help shape our reality.

You’re probably wondering what this has to do with our relationships?

Firstly Intention and attention. Our intention guides our thoughts and attention brings into focus where our energy and resources will go.

The first step is to get clear on what you want, then what you are thinking about it and the meaning you attach to it.

How to go about it

Getting it down on paper is a great start.
Discovering why you want it is equally important as it will drive you to put in the steps to attract and achieve it.
Does it sit well with your values? Included in this is a consideration of your heart, mind and gut response to your choices.
For what purpose is an excellent question to ask?
Asking what it will give you is very revealing too!

What to do next

When these questions have been answered , the next step is to discover how you might achieve the goal or outcome you have chosen.

Work out your action plan and then set about achieving it, step by step until completion.

Now you may have to correct or alter your course if it’s not going to plan and that  is ok too.

Treat the feedback constructively and avoid taking it personally.

Review your successes and  when you have achieved your goal, celebrate it.

Well done.
