4 journals you’ll want to use every day
Admit it – you’ve tried at least once to start a journal. You may have written in it for a few weeks, even months, but most of us eventually stop. As we’ve reported previously, however, writing a diary can actually be incredibly beneficial for your happiness. So swap your boring notebook for one of these fun journals with a twist.
Our Story, Our Life: A Grandparents’ Book
Any grandparent knows how special the bond with a grandchild is, so why not preserve your relationship with a thoughtful diary. Fill in the blanks and record your lives together. When your grandchild is older or you are no longer here, it will be a wonderful memento of your time together.
This is the ideal gift for the book lover in your life – even if that book lover is yourself! With 160 pages to put on your critic’s hat and log all the books you’re reading, it’s the perfect way to keep track of what books you’d like to re-read later and the ones you don’t.
Do One Thing Every Day That Scares You
What was your last new year’s resolution? If it was “to try new things”, then this is the journal for you. Each day, challenge yourself to try something out of your comfort zone and write it down. At the end of the year, you’ll have a chronicle of all the courageous things you did in the last twelve months.
Track the special – and even not-so-special – moments in your life every day with this great book. Instead of writing a full page, you just need to write down one line to sum up your day. Each of the 365 pages has five lines, so at the end of five years, you’ll have a collection of wonderful memories.
