Minimalist Journaling: A Fun and Effective Tool for Tremendous Habit Change
Morning
- Draw a square in the morning
- Write today's unique day number in the square
- Note: for demo purposes, I used Jan 1, 2018 rather than my birthday
- Write the time I woke up (today's box) and the time I went to bed last night (yesterday's box)
- Remember that today is unique and will never happen again
Evening
- In the evening, record what I want to remember from the day
- Event, achievement, conversation, feeling, anything else that answers that question
- Things to track in clockwise order from top left:
- Calories: track if I go over in calories
- up arrow = over calories; down arrow = under calories
- Physical activity: track what type of physical activity done
- R = run, W = walk (or hike), S = swim, O = other
- Empty for future use
- Meditation: track days that I meditate
- Reading: track rough number of minutes spent reading a book or kindle
- number of minutes (use 15min increments for ease)
- Animal products: track days without animal products
- \ = no meat; / = no cheese; X = vegan day
