A good way to get their thoughts and ideas on paper and then be able to read them and maybe understand themselves better.

I dunno. I think they manage to get it out but can’t bear to have their feelings out on paper, open, so they start ripping. I personally keep everything, even stuff I wrote during very difficult times. I guess F

i used to write blog regularly, but since i have joined uni, i dont have time to even die.
however i realize that i am writing other kind of stuf(report and stuff) every now and then.
Besides when i write on paper with pen and pencil, i feel so uncomfortable.

I have always strived to maintain a journal or diary. I feel my thoughts are lost unless I note them down. It also helps me look back on things and reflect on past decisions and mistakes to help me become a better man in the future by not repeating some of those ways. It’s a great habit to have for any person, that is for sure.

I love the fact that you can go back and read what you’ve written in the past. It’s always surprising to read yourself from 2 years ago, I always still surprise myself with what I’ve written in my High School material, back when I used to keep a journal.

Till then,

If you regularly write your day to day activity then you came to know about the mistakes you had done in the past…

I LOVE journal writing and have been keeping my personal journal for about 11 years now. Recently I’ve gone into business http://www.journaljunky.com.au and my mission is to bring this amazing transformational tool to the main stream. Thanks for sharing your excellent tips and personal experience. Love your post :) Soli

I loved your statement, Myrko, early on when you said you felt a bit childish about starting your journal. I have resisted writing a journal for so many years because it reminded me of the journals my girlfriends kept about their boyfriends and such. I’ve been writing 3 pages every morning now for almost two months and wish I had started a long time ago. The benefits have been astounding. It works best for me to write in the morning – in the evening, I’m usually too tired and find that I spend too much time rehashing the events of the day. But in the morning, it’s all fresh and my thinking is at it’s most original. I’ve learned who I am and I have become more confident and accepting of myself.

Thank you for your great post!

Hi there. I read through this topic and found it awesome! It is a year I’m writing a diary too, and I really find it relaxing and enjoyable. I made it a habit and a daily task for myself. @Fiercely Mild – I would too, believe me. I’d cry if I don’t go through a day with at least one entry written in my diary.

@Jonathan Beebe – Tumble-logging is cool. I do it too. :)

I would be lost without my personal journal. It’s always great to carry around to make notes and jot ideas down.

what have you done for personal development? How did you identify the area(s) for improvement? What feedback did you receive on how it works?

I completely agree with all of your points, and especially like the one where you say you’re writing a book about yourself because that’s so true.

And for those who don’t think they can keep up with a journal, starting a Tumblelog may be a great alternative.
