I also write goals and relect on my progress on them.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Aleu Z.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">Usually I will jot down a point about how I can apply the quote to my day. Yesterday before bed, I wrote myself a prompt to check in with myself after taking time to do self-care after a long night of studying<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Becky W.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I really recommend finding some journal prompts to get you started journaling or to keep on hand when you feel like you have nothing to write. There\u2019s a great list on Medium with 70 journal prompts for self-discovery that I highly recommend as they are very detailed (some prompts can be very high level and vague and this makes it difficult to get started). One you have a prompt just start writing what comes to mind and see where it takes you. You\u2019re not getting graded and it doesn\u2019t matter if you go nowhere! Also, I sometimes revisit a prompt the next night because I realize I have more to say.<br \/>\nWhen you build the habit of journaling it does become easier to write without prompts but I still keep a list handy for any time that I need some inspiration.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Jasmin J.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">Honestly it depends. Normally I like to reflect on how I was feeling through out the day or dive deeper into fears. I don\u2019t like to focus so much on who is upsetting but more about the why I reacted a certain way. I write about why a certain scene from a show makes me think or feel a way or why a song made me cry. On days I have nothing to write about I\u2019ll go back a day or two and read what I wrote and reflect. I write about dreams I have often and think about what influenced that dream. The Fabulous app quotes and coaching a give me plenty of inspiration for journal entries as well<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Th Y G.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I not down any thoughts I had throughout the day, write 5 things I&#39;m grateful for, then finish with visualizing&#x2F;writing the same 10 goals<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Adele J.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I normally start by answering these questions?<br \/>\nWhat did I do for someone today?<br \/>\nWhat did someone do for me today?<br \/>\nWhat am I great full for?<br \/>\nI then make a note of my feelings, my productivity (what could I have done better or kinder), my goals for the following day and usually finish it with an emoji type picture that sums up my overall mood<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Susan Y.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I try to write the things that felt big to me but that I know I won&#39;t remember in even a few days. I end up on long tangents about how I need to love myself, or accept my situation. I write about my doubts and fears and how I feel<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Theresa Z.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I always start with the date and time. I usually have a pressing thought that I need to get out of my head immediately so I start by writing it down as I think it. In other words, I don\u2019t worry about making it sound eloquent. Then I may elaborate depending on whether I have set aside the time to really go into it. Usually by writing something down I am able to work through it or see the simplicity of the thought just by seeing it on paper. This task really simplifies my life.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Susanna O.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I\u2019m writing about my plans,  how l will achieve them. My feelings about where I am now and where l want to be. The steps I will take to get there.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Emilee C.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">1. How my day has been. 2. Plans and goals for the day or week. 3. Random thoughts and ideas. 4. Maybe even philosophy sometimes. I love philosophical journaling prompts<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Rafaele P.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">How my day went and what happened.
