These Questions Have the Power to Transform Your Life: Kool Health Journaling Session
Lets go deep
Today, we're taking a break from our usual topics of self-development, health, and relationships to focus on YOU.
These questions, drawn from Oliver Berkeman's "4000 Weeks," have been instrumental in helping me gauge where I currently stand in life.
They are designed to prompt a self-check, allowing you to assess whether a pivot is necessary, evaluate if your expectations are too ambitious, and put things into perspective.
I hope that you find them as enlightening as I did.
Here's how to get the most out of this exercise:
Find a comfortable place to write.
Use pen and paper or technology—whichever you prefer.
Set aside concerns about time.
Carefully read each question and pay attention to your initial thoughts.
Reflect on your life and embrace the emotions that arise.
Just start writing.
Once finished, sift through your responses to extract anything valuable.
Questions
-Where in your life or your work are you currently pursuing comfort, when what is called for is a little discomfort?
-Are you holding yourself to and judging yourself by standards of productivity or performance that are impossible to meet?'
-In what ways have you yet to accept the fact that you are who you are not the person you think you ought to be?
-In which areas of your life are you still holding back until you feel you know what you're doing?
-How would you spend your days differently if you didn’t care so much about seeing your actions reach fruition?
And there you have it—a successful 'winter cleaning' for your psyche.
