I recommend you to both meditate and write a diary together.
I was a person who worked hard and was patient in anything, but on the other hand, I was an undecided character. So, I was not good at setting goals and putting them into practice continuously to achieve them. I started to do something, but I could not finish it properly because my mind changed in the middle. So, It was impossible to fulfill the object that I assigned myself. Changing these old habits was difficult.
One day, I got a piece of advice that if we write a diary while doing meditation every day, we can use our time efficiently to achieve our desired goals in all areas of work, study, and health, which are the most significant parts of our lives.
<Benefits of writing a diary while doing meditation>
- It reminds me of my original goals. So, It helps me accomplish them. (having a direction in life.)
- It helps me use my time efficiently. (Saving time.)
- It enables me to design my life in detail. (Clear goal setting and achievement)
- It enhances a sense of responsibility naturally.
- It helps me understand who I am and what life is more deeply.
- It is a method of self-check-up to prevent me from illnesses.
- It helps me to remember the ultimate purpose of my life.
- It helps me to build up gratitude.
- It helps me to understand others and live in coexistence.
We all are born in this world and could live up to 100 years, but we eventually die and end our lives. Likewise, we wake up in the morning, live a day, finish work, and sleep at night. A day can be a miniature version of our lives. Just as if there cannot be ‘many’ without ‘one,’ we must practice living well day by day. If we design and accomplish our daily missions in line with the purpose of our lives, we will be able to live the happy and successful life we want ultimately.
