Tuesday Tips – 3 Reasons to create a success journal



I want financial freedom. I want to travel more. I want to write a book. Have you ever made a declarative statement of something you want to accomplish? What is stopping you from pursuing those things? Jump start your journey by creating a success journal.

Your success journal does not have to be extravagant. Think of the acronym K.I.S.S. (Keep It Simple Silly). Here are 3 reasons why you should keep a success journal.

1.      Keep you focused
2.      Celebrate your accomplishments along the way
3.      Helps you understand your why – better understanding of yourself and why you’re doing this thing you want to do

There are different ways to approach your success journal. You can grab a spiral notebook and get started or purchase a fancy journal. Chose a method that fits your personality. One approach is to create a goal at the beginning of the week. Each day write an entry that reflects one positive thing that you did toward your goal.

If your ultimate goal is financial freedom, perhaps your goal for the week is to cut back on mindless spending. If your goal is to write a book, set dedicated writing time each day, even if it is only 30 minutes. You decide you want to travel more. During week one, you could dedicate time to research places you want to go and identify the expenses.

If you prefer to have something more regimented, purchase Success Journal that gives you points to start with. There are journals that begin each page with an encouraging quote followed by space to write your vision, dream or accomplishment.
