These are my favourite reflective journal prompts. I usually journal every day, but I don’t use every prompt, and you don’t have to either.
As the saying goes, “Nothing in nature blooms all year, and neither do you.” There are seasons in life, and self-awareness about your current season is a gift.
I’ve noticed that as I get older, I have to put more thought and effort into having fun. It doesn’t come as naturally as in childhood (my thoughts tend to drift towards work, responsibilities, and big decisions).
One thing I’ve noticed is my habit of tolerating things that I shouldn’t accept. It’s because I’m human, of course. I get in my comfort zone, and it’s easier to go with the flow than to challenge things.
This prompt is a twist on the traditional gratitude list, and I think it’s a great way of looking at things from a new angle.
