I really want to take initiative for my thoughts when I am in uncomfortable situations. I try to write them down at convenient times and capture them close to the moment. Some are good, bad, everything. I pick what I want to work on and set my reminders.

I always feel a certain way when I see _____ I try to think about what I am feeling emotionally and write a quick entry… Also, see if I think there may be any possible ways to alleviate the emotional parts of the situation.

I couldn’t be happier about today… It was the best day of my life! I like to write about how I feel with all of these emotions and happiness. I like to find my spot to let myself think about the actual emotions and feelings and how my day has been.

I did a great job in a charged situation today! I used the skills I have been learning to work together with my team in a more productive manner. Once I identify my feelings I write the situation out and how I worked to keep myself in my place of self-happiness and success.

I’ve been working on my ability to read and understand others feelings. I write in my journal on days where I notice the positives of my reading of others emotions correctly. I write about the emotions I used to better understand them as well. I set reminders to practice being thoughtful of others feelings and how I functionally use my emotional tools.

I use my journal more and more often to label my emotions and feelings as I feel them. I have been working on just simply identifying my feelings and emotions multiple times throughout the day. Once I have them written down I work to see if they align with my goals and make adjustments accordingly.

I have been taking time to get to know the most inner, deep, open version of myself. I use my journal to document my journey into myself and the things I Am learning about who I am. I have found that more importantly this helps me to figure who I am as well as who I want to be.

I’m not sure I was really in touch with my emotions for a long time. I had gotten some clues from friends and people in my life that I just wasn’t open to being social and being present in the moment anymore. I have been using my journal to remind me to be more present with my friends and loved ones. Writing about it after the event helps me to continue my personal growth.

I took a personal, moral, intimate, honest, open inventory of myself. I wrote my feelings, my truth, my everything down in my journal and finally had it all organized. From here, I was able to get to the root of who and what I want to be in my life. I set goals, plans for forward progress, and reminders to keep me working toward my goals.

I have noticed that I struggle with friends and family because I am not as in touch with my emotions and I have difficulty interpreting theirs. I have started to write down in my journal some scenarios where I have hurt their feelings and it has helped me see things from their point of view and how I may be being insensitive to the way that they feel.

I wasn’t getting anything accomplished emotionally for myself. I think and then think some more. This gives me the ways to work toward goals with small steps… to record myself in the moment. Also to set goals if I have found something I want to work on.

It has been such a great vacation. I’m glad to have a deep and true version for myself… the way I felt, the smells, the air, the life we live and I love. No polish or anything but my exact thoughts and feelings for myself. I like to put pictures in and really just have my own private record of my social life.

I don’t feel like I can say my honest truth on other social media platforms. I like to be able to tell my truth here with my pictures and thoughts and feelings. It really helps me to take in my life and my feelings and to think about things in a different way.

Journaling helps me to alleviate my anxious moments by writing my feelings and thoughts down until I am at a calm place. I write why I think I feel this way, what I may be able to do about it. I try to take in the whole event for exactly what it was.

I don’t have the best memory of things and I use my journal to keep track of all the times I have had… the big, the small, everything I want to keep a memory of. The pictures and quick text entry really help me to recall these great times in my life.

School has been going so great! Everything is changing in me and around me. I use my journal to keep record of my intimate thoughts and changes I am going through. I set a reminder to write about my growth and how I have been feeling inside as of late.

My journal makes the best nightly tradition. I go over my day sometimes briefly, sometimes more in-depth. I like to try and identify different goals I am close to hitting and set new goals for the coming week.

I have been facing so many different tasks and life directions lately. My journal was the only place that I could get everything written down and organized. From there I set reminders to help me make action steps toward my goals.

I am the type of person that holds their true feelings inside… Unfortunately until I explode. With my journal I am able to get my true feelings out and put my attention on my private thoughts from a different angle. Journaling helps me to clear my mind and work on action from a different direction.

I have been trying out different ways to journal about different things. Working with the graphing features and what really makes me feel comfortable. Each time I get a bit closer to my perfect way to use my journal. I set reminders to keep looking for the most productive and fun way for me to use my new writing tools.

I don’t have anyone to talk to about my situation and I really need a place to think through everything and get it organized for a new game plan. I turn to my journal to sort through all of these thoughts and get everything ready to make moves forward. I set reminders to help me make my first steps.

I was never someone who thought I would be using a journal every day. Once I found my way to use a journal I realized how much of a difference it makes to record my thought s and life moments. Not only for my personal growth, but to also release myself and experience life fully through my writing.

I’ve noticed that I do not listen to hear people… but to make my response. I journal about the conversations and what I would have liked to do better. I set reminders to see if I have been learning new ways to actively listen and write about my ongoing goal journey. I set my calendar to see how I have been doing on my communication goals.

My partner and I have been purposely avoiding each other as of lately. I noticed that we have gotten into a cycle of not talking to each other about anything substantial happening in our lives. I have been using the journal to document when this happens, and also to set reminders to start with 5 minutes a night of “our time” to communicate. I write the results and have noticed our communication making a more positive turn.

I have been dreading seeing my in laws during holidays, and family times… They always ask so many questions and I am not good at coming up with answers. I have noticed this shuts me down and takes away from the good times. I try to jot down some of my current life beforehand in the journal which helps me to prepare to have a more active conversation. I have noticed the more I do this, the more confident I become in our conversations.

There are a few people in my life that when I see them ask extremely personal questions that I am not comfortable with. I am using my journal to help me identify ways I can steer these conversations to a more comfortable place for me. Also identifying techniques to explain to others that I am not comfortable with their rhetoric.

I have been a long term caregiver and have been isolated from my friends. I want to use my journal to identify ways to regain the intimacy in relationships I had pushed away. I’ve been reaching out and getting some good results from being open and making progress in the friendships I had abandoned.

I’ve been known in my group as the serial “texter”, to the point of abandoning the socialness of a phone call or in person meeting. I have been making positive strides in reaching out to my friends and relations on a more personal level. I like to document the happiness I hear in their voice from our close and friendly conversation.

My parents are aging and over time our conversations have become very short and bland. I am journaling to work on ways that I can improve my conversations with them and avenues to help them be more engaged in detailed conversation. I’ve been preparing with questions that uncover needed details without making them feel uncomfortable.

I’ve been working with my Ex-partner to establish a consistent mode of contact to alleviate the recent disconnect in our parenting communication. We used to be really good at communicating and that has diminished over time. I use my journal to remember what we were good at communication wise and how to get back to square one with a more open agenda for our children.

I’ve noticed that I have become very rigid in my political views… to the point where I cut of any other viewpoint. I have made a conscience effort to remember that learning can come from both sides of the political spectrum. I have been working to more actively listen and respect others views and to retain an open mind about politics. I’m learning that active listening is important to many aspects of a healthy, balanced life.

When I read self-help books I pick out a couple topics that interest me and write about them in my journal. I write about how I may want to exhibit them in my life. I set reminders for myself to see if I have been practicing them, putting them into action, and monitoring results on my goals.

When I get free time I take time to reflect on my life, the good, the bad, the ugly. It really opens my eyes to who I am and who I want to become through personal growth. Every time I take a personal inventory I feel more comfortable with myself and write new goals to fulfill. I set up reminders based upon if they are short term or long term goals.

I just finished reading a really good book on mindfulness… I’d really like to adapt that to my life. I made a journal entry about some things I would like to practice and set reminders to see where my results will lead me.

I cannot quite put my finger on what exactly I have been feeling as of lately… I just have a few words that I believe describe feelings. I use the REAL Feel dictionary to try to learn and journal any solutions I may happen upon.

I have a really hard time with my drive to and from work… every day it seems the traffic is heavier and the road rage is worse. When I get home I like to jot down a few of the things that upset me and somedays how I handled my own personal feelings while driving home. It helps me to calm down and be thankful I made it home safely.

I am addicted to screen time, my phone, Netflix, social media, everything… It has really been taking over my life. I set daily reminders to keep goals of having less screen time and I write about how I have been doing. The amount of time spent vs my goal… also, I like to try to do other things instead of screen time and write about what else I enjoyed aside from my phone.

I have been asking trusted friends and family to tell me what they think of me and what it is like to be in a relationship with me. We do this in a safe and neutral manner… and it has helped me to see some things in a different light. I try to be thankful for their participation and make sure my notes and goals make it to my journal. I set myself goal reminders to see how I have been performing on my personal work.

I have been really in a low spot in my life… anything that can go wrong has lately. I find that writing my feelings in my journal and what has been happening has been helping me, not only learn how to cope better, but be more prepared and ready to work with things as they come.

Life has been really going in such a great direction for me. The only problem is I do worry about if things will fall apart. When I feel this anxiousness I like to make a quick journal entry about me, my surroundings, my feelings, and my environment. I have noticed it helps me to identify some of my triggers and prepares me for these situations by helping me understand myself better.

I have been experiencing many highs and lows in my life as of lately… I have been journaling to understand when this happens. Also, I have been journaling about things to keep me more even keeled and positive when I know these feeling are coming on.

When I feel my anxiety may be coming on, I journal about how I am feeling and how I would like to feel at that moment. Thinking of what I would like to be feeling in that moment helps me to calm down.

To take time to search for ways to improve my situation, feelings, etc… I journal about what I find out that I think would benefit me. I set reminders to check in on my progress.

I have had a hard time assimilating back into my friendships and relationships after being away for so long. I use my journal to remind myself to go out and meet new people and do new things when I can… also to write my feelings after I have new experiences and understand how I am feeling and growing.

My partner and I have not been on the same page since I have come back from being deployed. We both take time to write out our thoughts in our journals and we talk about what we have written over a weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly basis. It helps us to make sense of the differences and changes we are feeling. Then we set reminders to work toward our mutual goals as a team.

There were a lot of things I saw I have a really hard time talking about… it helps to have a private place to just say all I feel and feel comfortable to work on solutions for myself.

Each morning I have been asking myself a specific question dealing with self-reflection. I have been waiting till night to form my final answer, and I spend my day thinking about how I truly feel and how my actions reflect upon the answer.

I have been painting ideas and emotions that reflect what I am dealing with in life. I use my journal to write down what I am dealing with and why I feel this way. Both have really helped me to gather my thoughts and reflect on my daily struggles.

I have read some really good self-help books lately. I try to read one book per week, and I focus on a particular aspect in this book I would like to work on myself. I write in my journal how I am improving upon this area and I set reminders for what I can do in the future to make sure I continue to be successful.

My children have been getting older and that comes with a lot of changes in our family. I use my journal to step back and take a look at how our life is changing, if I am growing alongside them, and if there our any ways I can make these transitions as smooth as possible for my family.

I have caught myself lying very often lately. I know it is the wrong thing to do, and I want to try to stop doing it altogether. Every time I lie, I write about what I could have done to get the same result without lying about it. I set reminders to try to be as truthful as possible with those I encounter and myself.

I have made some new friends and I can notice that I am changing in ways I did not expect. I use my journal to reflect on if these changes are good or bad, and how I can continue to adapt to my new friend group while still staying true to myself.

Through journaling I have noticed that my graphs and analytics have become increasingly positive. I think about the changes I have implemented and how exactly they have affected my life. It feels really good to reflect on my new self, and I can’t wait to see what my future holds.

I like to write affirmations about myself and my positive behaviors as well. Taking the time to know and discover why I love each different part of myself. How these parts of me gives the world something unique, something different, something only I can do. I have a reminder set to put in a bi-weekly affirmation and something new I have learned and done as of lately.

Every time I have a negative thought, I try to alleviate these feelings by telling myself something positive and trying to be optimistic. I write about this experience and how it makes me feel afterward. I set reminders to try to continue to stay positive.

I like to pick a quote that makes me feel positive about myself in some way. Then I write some different ideas about how and why this makes me feel better. It has really helped me improve my overall mood and eradicate self-doubt.

It helps me to realize that I am worthy and do not deserve to be put down by others. I set reminders so I continue to remember that I am worth a lot more than how some people may treat me.

When I first started journaling I do not think I understood self-love quite that way that I do now, after beginning to journal much more often. Seeing my thoughts about myself in writing has helped me to develop a high-regard for myself. I have begun to truly understand self-love and implement it in my life.

I find that I have really been putting myself down lately and it has made my overall mood really poor. I use my journal to write about the root of why I may feel this way about myself. My journal has helped me to learn that I should not treat myself this way no matter the situation. I set reminders so I continue to remember not to talk to myself so negatively.

After a past relationship where my partner put me down continuously it really damaged the way I feel about myself. I use my journal to write about how I feel about myself and I have noticed it has begun to improve day by day. I set reminders for affirmations I should tell myself so I continue to feel better and grow my self-love.

I have had a very successful journey in finding love for myself through journaling. It has helped me not only find love for myself but discover ways I can help others find love for themselves too. Some of the techniques I learned help me to journal about ways to bring self-love to others.

I use this part of my journal to remind myself to make plans, keep track of why I may miss plans purposely, and to think about how to make small steps and goals to make new friends and relationships.

I’ve noticed that with the new activities I’ve been doing my mood and feelings have been much improved. Ive been taking time to document what about these new activities is making such a difference for me. Also when I find new activities I set reminders to help get myself there.

I overheard recently a comment made about me not having time for a friend of mine.

I set reminders to specifically see how they are doing and enjoy our friendship.

I feel like I have been spending too much time with my electronic devices and missing a lot of the world around me. I write about how I feel and what I do during my device free times. In my graph I have noticed a positive trend on the way I feel when I am not constantly tied to electronics.

I reached out to a friend I haven’t seen in long time. I really was in the need for some help and a listening ear.

I’ve been setting reminders to find new people to confide in who have time for a shared relationship.

I had a friend that was a big part of my life and a confidant for a long time. We have since lost contact as they were simply not there for me when needed. I have been journaling about ways to reach out and to begin to bring our shared relationship back to the forefront and begin mending our ties.

I’ve been researching new ways to work through this and my journal helps me to capture new ideas and document the results.
