In April 2019, I adopted a daily journaling habit. At first, I didn’t think much of it. I knew I wanted to get better at maintaining consistent habits, and journaling seemed like an easy way to hold myself accountable for one small daily task, that I was mostly doing anyways.
After 30-days of consistent daily, future self journaling, I learned a few things about myself. I wrote about those things, here.
After writing that post, I got hundreds of comments and messages asking me about my journaling practice. I got a lot of feedback from followers and email subscribers wanting to learn more about how I stay consistent.

Once you’re done with prompt 1, reflect back on what you wrote, or don’t. You can use the journal as a way to express bottled up feelings or emotions, or as a way to organize your thoughts so that you can make more sense of them.
Again, it’s your time and your choice to follow a process that appeals most to you.
You’ll get one new prompt every day for 15 days.
