Journaling JRP0036
b'Today we explore improving your\\nlife, gaining clarity, and achieving focus and purpose all through the practice\\nof journaling. This is all part of my own adventures in my life, my liberty and\\nmy pursuit of happiness.\\n\\n\\n\\nDuring this podcast I share numerous\\nstories about challenges I faced as an entrepreneur during the Great Recession.\\nMy clients were dramatically scaling back work with me, some clients went out\\nof business, other clients would not pay their open invoices. I felt\\noverwhelmed with a storm of thoughts, feelings, ideas, fears and worries as I\\ntried to navigate the economic storm.\\n\\n\\n\\nBut how did I emerge from the chaos\\nof plugging holes and putting out fires? How do I get from a reactive mindset\\nto a proactive one? How do I turn down the volume of the noise in my head and\\nget my thoughts organized? How do I coach myself to success? How do I reorient my\\nship and point it in the right direction?\\n\\n\\n\\nIt all came down to doing deep exploration\\nof my thoughts and feelings.\\xa0 I had to\\norganize everything in my mind in an objective, rational way.\\xa0 Journaling was the key to my success.\\n\\n\\n\\nThis process helped me relieve myself\\nof a number of heavy burdens.\\xa0 Journaling\\nwas like talking to a good friend that would just listen and not judge.\\xa0 The release of writing down everything in my\\nmind was powerful in and of itself.\\n\\n\\n\\nBut then when I was able to drill\\ndown deeper and explore my thoughts and feelings, I began to learn new things\\nabout myself.\\xa0 I would discover that challenges\\nwere not nearly as bad as I thought.\\xa0 I\\nfound organizing my thoughts clearly and then \\u201cuploading them back into my mind\\u201d\\ngave me clarity, focus and purpose.\\xa0\\nDistractions would melt away.\\n\\n\\n\\nI hope this podcast episode is of value to you.\\xa0 I invite your comments.\\n\\n\\n\\nJRP0036\\n\\n\\n\\nJohn Riley Project Info:\\n\\n\\n\\nBookings?
