I journal daily and have been doing so for many years. I use my computer and Microsoft Word. I enter the date and whatever is on my mnd. When things are happening in my life I make as many entries as seems right to me.
I can go back later and look at patterns in my thoughts, emotions and actions as well as stimuli. It is useful to me to identify why I do what I do and to enable me to make decisions that will get me what I want in the future versus getting what I always got when I did what I did unconsciously in the past.
I recommend it to any and all as a way of achieving their dreams in life and understanding from whence they, themselves came.
