How to Do a List for Appreciation Journal?

Postby grecy0905 » 01 Apr 2017, 20:12

List of appreciation journal or simple called Appreciation Journal is all about the list of what you are thankful for yourself. You can input some stories in it and tell a story in detail on how you come up the story as something you are grateful for. There are three topics to choose from. It depends on what happened to you from the past and present.

Why do we need to do this? This is a form of journal where you can relax for a bit and remember some positive stories that happened to you. Even little things like someone open a door for you at the office should be noted because this only means that humanity exists. You may be laughing and might telling, it is just a waste of paper and ink of a pen, but nope. Appreciation journal will make you happy. It will make you appreciate yourself more.

It is highly recommended for the people who are always unappreciated that they feel sad, they are finding reason why it is happening on them. It is like telling that when things gone wrong on the other, when they totally forget you, for sure there are some people who appreciates you more. For sure, you still have good news to share and you are not aware. The appreciation journal will keep you aware, you became more observant, open-minded, understandable and sincere of making you a better person against the person around you.

Make a List Your Success Stories
You can write about your success stories. It could be your present success story or your past story. Share detailed stories of your hardships before and you end up smiling because you did not give up. Share how you feel before and after you survived it. What were the things you learned? This will make you realize how strong you are and you will learn to appreciate yourself more. You realized that you are a kind of person who never gives up easily despite the struggle.

Make a List of What are you Thankful for
What are thankful for? The first thing on the lists will be because you have family, you have true friends, you have pets, you house, you have income, you have a job, you have a special someone, you have a business, you are healthy and more of it. Anything that you could see. Even material things like you have a laptop, you have a Paypal account, you have online earnings (despite the low earnings we should always be grateful we have one), you have online friends that will always guide you all the way to earnings and etc. The long list will make you smile, I bet.

Make a List of What you like about Yourself
The first time I did this, I was like “What? Really, I should include this?” But when I started writing and thinking about what I like about myself, the list goes on. I never thought that I have lot of good things about me. What makes me love this part is that when I am sad, I always remember what are the good things about me and it shifts my mood. It is working on me that is why I continue doing it.

I recommend doing this Appreciation Journal to those people who thinks they are neglected by their family, friends and even their boss and office mate. It works. You need to uplift yourself and solve your issue first instead of feeling emotional. Remember, you are important so you need to help yourself.

I maintain a gratitude journal. It reminds me of the countless blessings in my life and gives me hope even when I am down.

Great post! This is something I wanted to start doing. I do journal but mine is more a spot to jot down feelings bad and good or write about my day and sometimes poems. I recently got into watching some Youtube videos that showed various journal ideas and they all looked very cool. This one mentioned might be my next one. :)

I did it too. It helps and I never thought it works effectively on me. It always reminds me that there is always good in life that is why I am looking forward to have more good stories to tell.

For real, Appreciation Journal is what makes my life exciting as of the moment because I am looking forward for the good news. I also include some bad news but I make sure that I have the good ending with the learning.
