How Journaling Helps You Notice What REALLY Matters
The Things You Keep Coming Back To: How Journaling Helps You Notice What Really Matters.This is Episode 5 of Season 5 of The Journaling Guy Podcast, and today it's all about noticing what really matters to you, when writing in your Journal. It's important to remember here... it's not necessarily about what we keep writing about directly, it's more about what that means when we dig a little bit deeper into it. Repetition isn't always a bad thing. We mustn't keep making the same mistake or repeating a same bad habit. But what about those ideas, ambitions or interests that simply refuse to disappear?REMEMBER; repetition might be evidence to ourselves, that something matters.This weeks mission:Go back through some old Journal entries; don't read every word. Just flick through and look for repetition.IdeasPeoplePlacesDreamsThen write: THIS KEEPS COMING BACK BECAUSE... and carry on.Don't ask whether it's realistic. Don't make a plan. Don't Google how much flights cost. Just explore why it matters.-----------------------Thanks for listening to The Journaling Guy Podcast.Don't forget, I've written a FREE five-day series called How Journaling Can Transform Your Life.

How Journaling Helps You Get To Know Yourself
Who Are You When Nobody's Watching? How Journaling Helps You Get to Know YourselfThis is episode 2 of Season 5 of The Journaling Guy Podcast, and today, I'm asking what sounds like a really simple question...How well do you actually know yourself?Last week, I spoke to former NFL player Jed Collins, who has been Journaling for more than 20 years. Jed talked about the incredible ability his journals give him to effectively travel through time. This enables him to go back and meet the earlier versions of himself, seeing what he was thinking and feeling, what he understood about himself and, perhaps even more importantly, what he didn't understand yet. That got me thinking...We spend an enormous amount of our lives trying to understand other people, our partners, children, friends, colleagues and bosses but how often do we turn that same curiosity back on ourselves?Your Journal gives you somewhere to do exactly that. Somewhere you don't need to perform, impress anyone or even have all the answers.This week, we're exploring Curiosity Journaling and why changing one simple question from "Why am I like this?" to "I wonder why I do that?" can completely change the conversation you have with yourself.Because we're not looking for answers - We're looking for clues!THIS WEEK’S MISSION IS:This week, choose one of these sentences and use it as the starting point for your Journal:I feel most like myself when...I lose track of time when...The people who bring out the best in me are...Something about myself I'm beginning to understand is...If nobody else's opinion mattered, I would...Don't try to answer all five at once. Pick one and see where your writing takes you. Most importantly, don't judge what comes out.Be curious.If you'd like more detail around this week's method, and some extra prompts to help you explore who you are when nobody's watching, pop over to The Journaling Guy Substack.

I got to sit down and interview Jed Collins, a former NFL Fullback who just so happens to have kept a Journal throughout his whole careerJedidiah Collins - The Fullback of Finance.
