Journaling Tips for Beginners
1. Start Small
Don't pressure yourself to write pages every day. Even 5 minutes of journaling is valuable. Consistency matters more than quantity.
2. Write for Yourself
Your journal is your private space. Don't worry about grammar, spelling, or making it perfect. Just write authentically.
3. Make it a Habit
Link journaling to an existing habit. Journal with your morning coffee, before bed, or during lunch. Consistency builds the practice.
4. Use Prompts When Stuck
Can't think of what to write? Try prompts like:
- What am I grateful for today?
- What's one thing I learned recently?
- What would I do if I couldn't fail?
- What made me smile today?
5. Review Regularly
Look back at old entries monthly or quarterly. You'll be amazed at your growth and progress!

Create a journaling space that inspires you:
- Good lighting - Natural light is best, or a warm desk lamp
