This Is the Journaling Template for People Who Don’t Have Time to Journal
With ‘Four Corners Journaling,’ there’s no fancy lingo, no obscure writing prompts, no fluff
I’ve heard that journaling is rocket fuel for self-improvement, which is why I tried to start the habit while I was unemployed during the pandemic. One night, I brought out a small notebook and jotted down my thoughts. I will never forget what happened the next morning: I woke up in an extraordinarily good mood!
It was easy for me to journal religiously — until I started my new job. My days quickly filled up with work, chores, exercise, and writing. With less time and energy, it became difficult for me to take the time to sit and reflect. Days, sometimes even weeks, would pass between entries.
Maybe you’re like me and are having trouble fitting the task into your daily schedule. Or maybe you want to journal but don’t know where the start. (Anyone else overwhelmed by the multitude of writing prompts out there? What are you grateful for? Did you learn something new about yourself? What does your future self look like?) Recently, I came up with a method to make the habit more manageable. It’s called Four Corner Journaling.
