Journal writing

Inward versus Outward Focus
A journal is a deeper, more focused collection of questions
Lois Guarino, author of Writing Your Authentic Self says:
A journal “is an inward journey, a record of internal life written consistently over a period of time, but not necessarily day by day. It is a place where...you can commune with rarely explored parts of yourself and where those parts can answer back.” (p.3)

So why keep Journals?
Exercise of self-discovery
Explore & express inner creativity
Relax

Writing Benefits
Pragmatic – record of events, thoughts
Educational – learning to write can help think more effectively
Emotional- idea clarification, distilling

So what’s in it for me?
Organize your thoughts
Improve writing skills
Market yourself
Stay active & knowledgeable

Discover your voice!
The world has changed
Nobody’s monopoly
The new media landscape

Managing Change
Writing is a habit
If you are not comfortable blogging that just write in a notebook
Read & write

Thank You!
