Intentional Monthly Journaling To Create Joy & Success

It’s the 1st Monday of the month when I do my monthly Joy Journaling to ensure I’m intentional about creating joy in my life. (Joy definition = the feeling evoked by success, well-being, or good fortune). These are the 5 questions I journal on every month:

1. Focus – where was it? What did I learn? What needs to shift?

2. Stressors – plus how to overcome them

3. 80/20 thinking: What am I continuing to do myself that I’m not good at? Improve it. Eliminate it. Delegate it. (If you don’t do something well, don’t do it unless you want to spend the time to improve it.)

4. Relationships (professional & personal) – how are they and what am I learning about them?

5. WINS for the month to celebrate!

What do you do to avoid drift and ensure you are living a life of JOY?!
