Think about all that you have done throughout the day, it might not be exciting but write it down and set a goal that tomorrow your you will do one thing differently and see the results.

when i don’t know what to write about i write about what i’m looking forward to, how my day has been, something i’m grateful for, something that has me in a mad mood. i use my journal as a space to rant about anything that’s bothering me or just on my mind!

I say download Pinterest it gives you a bunch of notebook ideas and has aesthetic recipes wallpapers and more it’s generally a great app also general advice write your notes and give like tiny time capsules for like the day you start journaling the capsule to day 100 or 50 of journaling I make it look nice so it’s just more fun to do it give yourself goals and stick pictures of you with tape and see how you evolve

I just write about what I did today. How I feel. What I need to improve in. What I can do the next day to do better. Maybe potential plans for tmrw

Just write what you are feeling or what you were feeling during the day. Writing about what you feel helps you to gain a better understanding of your feelings.

Write about what you see around you, or what you did that day or the day before. Write about your hopes and dreams and goals.

i personally write down what i’m looking forward to that day, or the things i need to do such as things work i need to do, or working on a project

I prefer not to write at all if I don’t know what to say. However, if I do respond I try to speak from my heart about my experiences if they apply to situations I am responding to give an example.

When I don’t know what to write I’ll usually look for journaling prompts online or draw out my thoughts. Most of my journaling prompts come from Pinterest but there are other websites and apps that have prompts too. Sometimes if I don’t feel like writing I’ll sometimes draw out my thoughts or just draw anything to ease my mind. It’s usually something small like stick figures, clouds, plants, etc.

I write down whatever the voice is in head is saying or thinking about in that moment and then my creativity flows back into the process
