ACHIEVEMENT METHOD: HE HOW AND WHY BEHIND JOURNALING SUCCESS So many successful people credit journaling as being one of their most important practices. From Da Vinci to Edison to Einstein, brilliant thinkers have left us scores of journals documenting their thoughts and processes. Why do we know so much about the greatest thinkers of all time? THEIR JOURNALS TELL THE STORY. Good journaling works because it allows us to take our thoughts and ideas out of our head where there is heavy competition coming from emotions, beliefs, pressing schedules, and frankly, fears about what we are capable of. Writing unto itself won't get you there though. Journaling is very different than writing because it is: Quick A non-judgmental process Focused on very specific questions Full of opportunities to review, rehash, and rethink (e.g. grow and improve) SO HOW DO YOU JOURNAL EFFECTIVELY? There are a lot of journals out there designed to positively affect one or more areas of our life. However, many contain nearly identical, repetitive information, few take our entire life with all its complexities, dreams and messiness into consideration, and no journal we have found provides the WHY behind anything they ask you to do, let alone the research to back it up. On the other hand, we benefit wildly from journaling in many areas of our life - simultaneously. And, when we share our habits, strategies, and research through consultations and workshops, we see others just like you make huge gains too. The motivation and desire to change is present in all of us. We just need to know how successful people affect change and why they do what they do. HERE ARE WHY MANY JOURNALS ARE ONLY USED FOR A VERY SHORT TIME OR ARE ABANDONED: THEY FOCUS ON ONLY ONE AREA OF LIFE THEY OVER-WORK YOU THEY REQUIRE YOU TO EXERT WILLPOWER AND/OR DISCIPLINE TO GET WHAT YOU WANT THEY CONFUSE AND COMBINE DAY-PLANNERS, CALENDARING, AND JOURNALING. THEY TREAT TIME AS THE ENEMY THEIR USE OF TIME IS ABSOLUTELY ARBITRARY THEY ARE CONSTRAINING RATHER THAN LIBERATING MOST IMPORTANTLY, MOST JOURNALS DON'T TELL YOU HOW TO JOURNAL. Journaling is a learned skill. Easily learned by the way. We will be right by your side, every step of the way. We give examples, suggestions, and the exact templates we use to make masterful changes and additions to our life. HOW IS THIS JOURNAL DIFFERENT? The best journaling processes work methodically to identify what drives us, what we love, and who we want to become. Then, and only then, do we choose tasks, create projects, and undertake all of the activities that productivity devices have become so popular for. Note that we said popular, not successful. This journal combines the best available practices that have proven results based on actual research and feedback. We do not promise to get you something in life that you have been wanting. Although you will. We do not promise success in X number of days. However, in 66 days you will be blown away by how much has changed. We promise that by the end of this journaling experience, you will be changed as a person and will learn techniques that will alter how you are showing up in this world. Every area of your life will be positively affected. And one area, the one area that merits the most of your focus, will change dramatically HOW TO JOURNAL EFFECTIVELY The mechanics behind journaling are extremely important because it will determine whether you stick with it or abandon the process, find it beneficial or burdensome, and gain energy rather than become depleted. After an extensive study of the most effective strategies out there, this journal includes optimal habits to put in place including: number of times per day, time of day, and amount of time to journal.
