Journaling's Core Problem

It allows for focused thinking and identification of essential aspects.

ADVICE

Starting a Journaling Habit

Start journaling by writing down short thoughts, even if they seem trivial.
Don't aim for profound entries initially; focus on externalizing thoughts and feelings.

ADVICE
