READING: THE POWER OF JOURNAL WRITING: UNFOLDING YOUR PERSONAL JOURNEY The purpose of journal writing is to help you become the Scriptwriter of your life. There are four (4) practical reasons to maintain a journal: 1. IT IS COST-EFFICIENT AND AVAILABLE Emotional stress can be dealt in many ways like talking to a friend over a cup of coffee, eating, travelling, shopping, painting and many more but writing is the most inexpensive. Notebook and pens are easy to find, available and do not cost so much. 2. IT IS PREVENTIVE AND PRO-ACTIVE Writing yields self-awareness. When you write, you can discover your strengths and limitations. You will know what your reactions are in different situations and what better ways to prevent, avoid, or face your fears 3. IT IS CREATIVE AND PRODUCTIVE Journal writing expounds your imagination. You can see various dimensions of your problem, different points of view and better solutions. 4. IT IS PERSONAL AND PRIVATE. Unless you want to share your stories, you have the choice to keep them to yourself. Writing is your time alone. It is my way of loving yourself. You will not be judged by your writing. THANK YOU
