Keeping a journal? * 1
    #21730815 - 05/28/15 12:12 AM (8 years, 8 months ago)

I was wondering if journaling has made any significant difference to ya'll's lives? I am generally curious about this, and I am also trying to develop new methods of gratitude and mindfulness. I feel I dont cherish each day to the fullest and jounrals would help with that

Any tips or advice would be appreciated

I could never keep up on journals that I have started.

With today's tech we have all kinds of inline social media type of sites and forums that essentially provide the same function. There is no doubt that my grandkids will have access to my daily bullshit for many generations to come.

Thanks Facebook!

a Journal of art or thoughts or both is like making your own treasure hoard, and I am very rich.

Ive been using the nic patch the last few days and my dreams intensity have went through the fucking roof. Last night I had what seemed like a 6 hour epic that involved infiltrating North Korean Military facilities as a spy in an attempt to assassinate Kim Jung Il. Eventually me and my partner (mark whalberg) got captured, and moments before we were about to be doused in petrol and burned alive we managed to steven seagull our way out of there and then proceeded to fight our way back out of the base before my alarm woke me up. It was fucking amazing.

I keep a journal but it's been a while since I've written anything worthwhile. It's mostly just rambling about my problems or songs I've written. That being said, I still recommend keeping one. I feel like it helps me keep my thoughts organized.

My handwritten journal gets more attention than either my pc or shroomery journal. I'll write things in it that catch my attention from books I've read, such as Voltaire's morals as stated in his novel Zadig (He basically defends his Socratic castigation)

Sometimes the Shroomery is my journal. I write some of my best dreams here too, though it's been a while. I've tried in the past to keep a physical journal but it wasn't my thing. I feel like that's what I have to think about anyway so writing it down takes away from my time to focus on the present. I do however have a couple notebooks full of poems, lyrics, progressions, trippy thoughts, drawings, ect. It's always a blast looking through them.

Keeping a journal is one of the best things a person can do to aid their self-development.  Writing down your thoughts allows you to sculpt yourself into the individual you would like to become.  It is a very powerful tool when used for self-actualization. I keep  a journal with me everywhere I go, I write for at least two hours a day. 

Since I keep it on me, whenever I have a random insight or string of ideas I am able to write them down and develop on them further at a later point in time.  I have a journal for random thoughts, my day to day life, dreams, and fiction writing.  I also keep what I call a "Morgue" book, which is just a journal that I write down other peoples ideas and quotes, you know, the ideas or essence of my heroes.  When I get writers block or demotivated I peruse this morgue book to become re inspired.

Get an adventure backpack, some composition books, and some nice pens.  Get out there and create yourself!  The path of enlightenment lies before you.

I keep far too many secrets to keep a journal.

Woah this was much more than I expected. I never expected anyone to keep a journal and these type of results

This is more what I was thinking about. Just writing interesting things from that day

Is there a website that i can store my journal on? I don't want to have a paper copy that others could find. And I would hate to carry it with me when I travel. I also have TONS of embarrasing dreams so a journal that had a pasword would be great

Physically writing in your journal is important.  It'll be nice to have a physical copy when the time comes to share your thoughts with a S/O.

Well thats a valid point. I figure I best just keep it in a safe place
:thumbup:

Tumblr is a nice platform, I think. I currently use it for my writing. It also has a nice option to password-protect your blog.

I never really understood a journal. I'm sure it couldn't hurt but I feel like pouring out shit on to paper isn't much of a solution. Most of what you do online is basically a journal. Considering imessage text goes straight to apple servers, they basically have your life journal encrypted. Although I don't think they do much with the data. Twitter is a journal as well as facebook. you could also consider any forum such as this a journal.

Think of it as taking a picture with words, except that picture can be a thought, an experience, a feeling or anything. The feeling of looking over past writing can be like looking at a photo album accumulated over any number of years but is not limited to this. If you have an interview or meeting coming up it can be a good place to brain storm and summarize thoughts.
