Start a Bullet Journal

Keeping a Journal

I know how hard it is to keep a journal but I also know how important it is to record things in your life.  Perhaps a bullet journal will help you to keep those memories. Here is a list of 10 things you usually need to write down anyway.  One way to do this is to take one of those composition notebooks you get the kids before school starts and use it to write things down.. date the top of the page and write those notes. You will get a double benefit by doing this:

You will have a record of important triggers for other memories. The recipe you record today might be prepared for Christmas at some point. When you look back and see the recipe it will trigger the warm Christmas memory

You clear all those notes off your desk, table and nightstand. Everything will be in one place. Yes, I know you have a phone to put things, but sometimes you just need to put a pencil to paper and empty your mind.
