When I don\u2019t feel like writing about my day or my feelings, I just write the date and maybe the quote of the day. That is it. Just a 1 minute sentence. That\u2019s not failure. It\u2019s not perfection, but it is not failure. I\u2019m not perfect and neither are you. Consistency and habits are more important than perfection and when I\u2019m ready I\u2019ll pick up journaling again. It may be the next day or the next week or the next year. It doesn\u2019t matter. Maybe if you are asking this question, an intentional break is what you need so you don\u2019t burn out and give up when all you need is a little bit of grace with yourself.
