Hi, I’m Berrak, and I’m a journal addict. It’s been 89 days since my last journal purchase and seven days since my last pen purchase.
Like most people, I’ve always had every intention of using my journals on a daily basis. I mean, I’m a writer. I need to put pen to paper, to feel the words flow through my body onto the page. I’m a prolific documenter.
Of course, I can’t go one day without journaling.
Of course, I need to use my planners to keep track of the million projects I’m juggling.
There are some things technology can’t take away from me.
Except…well, we know better, don’t we?
By the time I make it off the computer at the end of the day, I’m so worn out, my hands barely work. My handwriting has gotten awful. I mean, most doctors have better handwriting than I do these days. But as I mentioned in the first post of the year, this is the year I’m going to change that.
Right?
Right.
I mean, I didn’t buy all of those lovely pens and markers just to have them lying around. (Let’s not bring my stationary and pen addiction to this session.)
So, how am I going to make this new habit stick? Read more Confessions of a Journal Hoarder
