Journaling: Bringing Meditation To Life

Journaling is an easy way to be responsible for your actions on a day by day basis, and no one does this better than the Stoics. Marcus Aurelius, a well known Emperor of Rome is well known for using journaling for being accountable for his time and improving his interactions with others.

Obsticles are always a favorite topic and my favorites come from an old Taoist saying:

Direct your thoughts because they will turn into speech.
Speech will turn into actions.
Actions will turn into habits.
And Habits will turn into character.

Morning journaling can set your mind to focus on how you will approach the day.

Evening journaling has you be accountable for today’s action and lets you think on how to improve those actions.

The Unexamined Life is not Worth Living ~ Socrates

As you journal like a Stoic each day will become an important way to wake up to how we see and interact with the world around us.
