A Tip...
I started journals about 3 years ago but really got serious within the last year. This has helped me so much! My mind tends to go fast and doesn't stop.(Type A thing going on...) Random thoughts and lots of them. So I needed a tool to bring clarity and peace to all this madness. I needed a tool to make sure I have my vision, priorities and a road map to hit my life's Master Targets!
Journals has been the answer. Writing everyday has given me clarity in thought and peace in my mind. It's really crazy how peaceful my mind has become. Also I am getting more things done and priorities are line in (I check them often to make sure). I still make mistakes every single day but I realize them sooner and correct them as best I can. That did not happen before.
My prayer journal has also helped a ton. I strongly suggest starting a prayer journal.
Clear thoughts, clear vision, and clear actions. And a peaceful mind.
