Journaling Takes Time

in #hive-145510last month

How much time does it take to journal? I think it would depend on whether you start or end the day journaling. I can see how starting the day with a journal would be good for productivity. You set you intentions in advance of the busyness of the day.

I can also see how ending the day journaling would be helpful. It would allow you to decompress and let go of that same busyness to the day. This seems like it would be a good way to clear out the energy and thoughts and worries of the day onto the page before drifting off to a restful and peaceful sleep.

It takes me 30 minutes to an hour. I start writing but then my mind wanders and I start contemplating and I come up with something that I want to write. It doesn't go full stream of consciousness. I mostly have to contemplate which is what takes up most of my time.

The thinking about what to write before actually pressing pen to paper. That makes sense.
