Dean Graziosi describes journaling as a core habit contributing to his success. He explains a routine of "dumping" thoughts before bed to process emotions (why he felt good or bad), clarify problems, and reduce worry. He also uses the journal for idea capture, daily to-do lists, planning, innovation, and identifying behaviors to stop.
Sometimes something as simple as journaling, somebody goes, I don't know. Now give me the real secret to your success. If I look back in my life, there's no doubt that journaling the way we journal, the way I journal, has made a big impact. Did you ever have something bugging you so much you get down? You write it down, you look at it, you go, that's not that big a deal. I've been there before, and I found that right before I go to bed, if I journal and dump everything of the day, good, bad, or otherwise, the why questions what went good? Why did I feel this way? Why did I feel good? Why did I feel bad? If I dump it before I go to bed, I honestly can crack that. So there's. Sometimes I'm just dumping ideas. There's other times I'm writing my to do list for the day in there. There's other times I'm writing I got to stop doing there's. So I get to use it as kind of a planner, an innovator, an action taker, or what not to do.
