Journaling is one of the best ways to set goals and reach them. If you’re looking for a fun, practical, and helpful journal, you should start with a manifestation journal. These journals help you write your dreams, goals, and other things you wish to manifest. Manifestation journals allow you set clear visions for your life and what you need to do to achieve them. To start a manifesting journal, you need a notebook and a goal. This article will walk you through five essential steps to create your manifestation journal.
Five Steps To Starting A Manifestation Journal
Manifestation journals are the perfect addition to your self-care routine. They help you keep your goals and plans organized, making it easy to achieve them. Below are five steps to get started with a manifestation journal.
Step 1
The first step is to start a journal with free writing. Freewriting means writing whatever comes to your head in the journal. Clear out any thoughts or emotions burdening you before you begin to write. You want your goals to be written in a clearly defined format. The manifestation journal should be private so that you can freely write your deepest emotions. Sharing your feelings in the self care journal will help unburden your mind, which will open up space for your dreams and aspirations.
Step 2
Set smart goals using your manifestation journal. If you set ambitious goals, you will achieve even more. Here is what smart means in this context;
- S- Specific
- M- Meaningful
- A- Achievable
- R- Realistic
- T- Trackable
If the goals you are setting don’t fit into any of the above criteria, set newer and better goals. While it is essential to set big goals, it is better to set achievable goals within a short time.
Step 3
After you have set goals using the S.M.A.R.T system, start thinking about what the dreams mean. Start asking questions like:
- What will I achieve with these goals?
- Why is it important that I achieve these goals?
- Will achieving these goals help other goals?.
These questions should be answered honestly in your journal. Try to stick to only meaningful goals. They are the ones you need to achieve.
Step 4
The fourth step is to eliminate any mindset that perpetuates fear and doubt. A negative attitude will hinder you from achieving what you want in life. On the other hand, when you believe in yourself and your capabilities, you will create an energy that will let you fly.
Using your journal, write down those things that scare you and how you want to overcome them. One of the best ways to develop a positive mindset is to write in your journal about times you learned a new skill. Write about how you learned the new craft and quickly overcame the challenges.
Step 5
After you must have developed a positive mindset, map your way forward using your manifestation journal. Here are some more questions that will help you in mapping a way forward
- What will the next five years of my life look like?
- How do I want to spend the last five years of my life?
- How can my short-term goals help me in reaching my long-term goals?
- What good habits do I need to build to manifest more of my potential?
Final Thoughts
A manifestation journal is a perfect solution for keeping your life in check. By using a manifestation journal, you’d be able to keep track of your goals and vision, setting out a road map to achieving them.
