I have a different problem with journaling. I totally know where to start but it feels like a waste of time. They drilled into our heads in grad school that the greatest minds of our time swear by journaling, but it seems so pointless. I did it for the classes that required it but felt I got no benefit and did not continue afterwards.
They say it is a way to apply PDSA to your life but I do that just fine without writing it down. Same goes for the Pygmalion effect; I can explicitly state my goals without writing them in a book, without spending the time to write it out and then more time to read it later.
