I see it’s a long time since I’ve written anything about this goal. To update: I write in my journal regularly, and even fairly recently I filled a volume. Good going.

In the past week I experienced the good effect when the wider and more sober view brought about by writing in my journal turned a “negative” experience into a learning experience. If I had not written a little bit every day for weeks, making writing a habit, this event (which, in itself, was not spectacular or noteworthy in any other way) would have passed into the jumble of history, unregarded.

I’m not marking this as done yet; it’s not a habit yet (I’d like it to be like brushing my teeth) and I experience a lot of resistance doing it.
