Detail each move in your rise to power!

Also show us the poem!

sukie74.bsky.social•47 days ago

Oh I like that idea

So far I have detailed a whole outfit to seduce someone 😂

The poem is sad 😔

I think the rules are do what you want. It's of no concern to anyone else.

sukie74.bsky.social•46 days ago

Thank you 🙏

Journals are personal tools, what you need and what you make them to be. Don't let anyone be prescriptive.

sukie74.bsky.social•47 days ago

Thank you 🙏

No..You're human and not just doing it the same way as those annoying dweebs on YouTube ...😉

sukie74.bsky.social•46 days ago

Thanks! 😂

I'm 41 and have journaled off and on since I was about 6. Pretty consistent for the last 5 years. I'm glad I have. My journals take a lot of different shapes and forms and I think that's empowering, I don't think there's a "right" way to do it, just the way for you.

sukie74.bsky.social•47 days ago

Thanks for the advice Rick, I’m going to give it a real go.

thenewdomshow.bsky.social•47 days ago

However YOU feel like doing it, is how you should do it. It's for you and no-one else :)

sukie74.bsky.social•47 days ago

Ta buddy, that’s what I’d thought. Mad ramblings of a mad woman! 😂

thenewdomshow.bsky.social•47 days ago

Not at all! I kinda use my Bluesky for that. :)

sukie74.bsky.social•47 days ago

That’s good to know! 🤗

I do and to quite a rigid framework which suits the way my brain works: I like structure, and that frees up space for ideas. Happy to share if you think it might be useful.

sukie74.bsky.social•47 days ago

Oh that sounds interesting. So what do you do, if you don’t mind sharing?

fizzandnonsense.bsky.social•47 days ago

Don't mind at all! I start the day with headers:
Gratitudes (x5)
Plan for the Day (limited to 5 things)
Fears/Resentments
Things to Watch Out For
Things to Strive For

The last two things seem to sort out the Fear/Resentment without really thinking about it.

End of the day is traditional review

sukie74.bsky.social•47 days ago

Oh I like the idea of that. I’ll try it
Thanks Dotty

Not at all. Journaling is about expression and reflection. Doesn’t matter what format it takes or how frequently it happens. You don’t even need to write it down, do it via a voice app.

findxtellmey.bsky.social•47 days ago

I do it casually and it is as varied as yours.

sukie74.bsky.social•47 days ago

Oh that’s good to know Ethan, thanks

mirthematician.bsky.social•47 days ago

I've tried so many times and always run dry by about mid-February as most days I have nothing to say!

sukie74.bsky.social•47 days ago

Mine isn’t a literary piece but mad musings! 😂😂

perfumeaddict.bsky.social•47 days ago

Not sure there's a wrong way to journal.

sukie74.bsky.social•47 days ago

Ah that’s good to know. I just thought maybe I’m not getting it!

perfumeaddict.bsky.social•46 days ago

I've kept a diary for 45 years. 😊 Sometimes it's lot of words, other times it's lists, other times it's song lyrics and quotes. Best not to set limits on yourself and then it's easier to continue.

sukie74.bsky.social•46 days ago

That sounds sensible. Thanks, I will give it a go x
