Journaling Your Way to Success

One of the things that helps me stay focused and committed to my goals and dreams is keeping a success journal. A success journal is just what it sounds like – a record of your accomplishments.

It seems so simple, yet it is an effective tool for changing your life. If you keep track of what you’ve done right, it is easier to hang on when it seems like everything is falling apart around you.

How do you start a success journal?

1. List successes you had in school. Were you on the honor roll? Did you start a club? Look through your files. Do you have copies of achievement certificates? List anything you can remember!

2. Think of things that you do right in your relationships. Do you help others? Have you made someone smile today?

3. What have you done right at work? What things have you done to help the bottom line?

4. Think of obstacles that you have overcome.

5. Enlist a friend to help. Sometimes it is easier for us to remember our failures.

If you take the time to remember and record your successes, you have a powerful tool to keep yourself on track. Keeping track of your successes is one way to sure that you have more of them! We get what we focus on.

Just yesterday morning I had surgery. Today, I am in that recovery phase where I feel as if I will always be sick and in pain.

For many of us, this happens in our life. We start to make a change and then realize it hurts more the day AFTER we made the cut than the day we made the choice. For many people this is the excuse they need to go back to the way it was.

Why? In two or three more days, I am going to feel better than I have felt in a long time. I had to cut away baggage that was holding me back. Some people need to do this as well.

Don’t let temporary pain blind you to the beauty that is ahead. Press on. Give yourself time to heal.
