TEAMS365 #2210 – 20 for 2020 – Day 18: Weekly Journaling Prompt 84

1/18/2020

Happy Saturday! What do you have planned this weekend? When are you going to build in some time to reflect on your week?

Today’s Weekly Journaling Prompt gets you to think about your travels this year. The prompt is “My favorite trip this year has been….”. Travel has always been a passion for me, even when I was working and living overseas for more than a decade.

I love the learning and new insights caused by travel, as well as the freedom from my everyday routine.

I hope that this weekend you will find some time to reflect on your recent travels, and related insights/learning/observations.

With this now being #84 in the series, you may also want to dip into other posts including:
#81 – I want to put the following in my time capsule..
#77 – I am on the path to...

If you are journaling, are you also building in time to reflect and review what you have written? As you do so, you may want to be asking these questions:

What journey have you been on as you’ve been journaling?
What do you notice about themes across your writing?
What connections do you see across the posts?
What stands out/jumps out/emerges for you as you read it?
What is significant?

Enjoy the reflection,
Jennifer

Knowing what makes us happy can be important for quality of life and work. Many times, we can get so in the flow of life and busyness that we don’t stop to pause and think about what makes us happy. Before we get too far into the year, this weekend’s Weekly Journaling Prompt gets you to think about, and write about, what makes you happy.

What can you be doing to bring more of these happy moments and activities into your work and life? One way to do this might be by creating rituals. As Tony Schwartz and Jim Loehr write in the Power of Full Engagement, “Building rituals requires defining very precise behaviors and performing them at very specific times – motivated by deeply held values.”

Perhaps getting outside on the weekends makes you happy, or fitting in a podcast over lunchtime. What are the habits and rituals that are going to support you around this?

I hope that you will enjoy thinking about not only what makes you happy this weekend, but what you can also do to cultivate more of that through habits and rituals.

Enjoy!
Jennifer

TEAMS365 #2196 – 20 Tips for 2020 – Day 4: Weekly Journaling Prompt 82

1/4/2020

Welcome to the first Weekly Journaling Prompt of 2020. These are quick prompts geared to get you to stop, pause and take stock of what’s occurring in your world of work, and life. In my work as a coach, I regularly hear how valuable it is to be able to “pause” to reflect on what’s happening and what action is needed. When are you stopping to “pause” and take stock of where you are? Pauses may be 5- 15 minute only. It’s often more about the quality than the quantity!

This week’s prompt gets you to reflect and write on “I want to invest in…”. What are the things you want to invest in this year?

Our focus is finite as is the time we have. Where do you CHOOSE to invest your time and focus? Where do you want to invest? What’s the benefit? What can be the benefit for others?

I hope that you will enjoy these and a quick reminder for those that facilitate that the new Conversation Sparker Journaling cards are now available as well. These are a great tangible tool to bring into your workshops or retreats or coaching sessions. Do everything virtually? Inquire about a digital license.

Enjoy your weekly reflection time!

Have a great weekend,
Jennifer

TEAMS365 #2182 – Weekly Journaling Prompt 81

This weekend’s Weekly Journaling Prompt gets you to think about the question – “I’d put the following in my time capsule”. Just the other day my son was talking about how it’s only 4 more years until he can open the time capsule he created back in grade 2…. he’s excited to see what he put in there and can’t remember all the items.

What are artifacts of your year this year? What would you want to bottle up and save away? What DO you want to capture so that you can remember?

This weekend’s WJP is a great one as we go to wind down the year. If you haven’t taken a few minutes to review your year, be sure to now – you can follow along a 30-minute reflection 2020 planning session I hosted last month. View it here.

Enjoy!

TEAMS365 #2175 – Weekly Journaling Prompt 80

This week’s Weekly Journaling Prompt gets you to undertake one of the positive psychology exercises we see as a happiness and well-being booster asking you to reflect on what you are grateful for. Positive psychology has a very well know daily practice called "the 3 things you are grateful for" where people are encouraged to reflect on, and write out 3 things they are grateful for.

Whether you do this once a week or on a daily basis, studies have found that getting into the habit of reflecting on, and articulating, what you are grateful for has impact on self-esteem, health (physiological, psychological) and relationships.

Read Amy Morin's 2014 article on 7 Scientifically Proven Benefits of Gratitude here.

Check out this White Paper on Gratitude from the Greater Good Science Center at UC Berkeley - Download it here.

I hope that you will enjoy this week’s Weekly Journaling Prompt, and more importantly, find that it has longer term impact!

Enjoy your writing!
