muchtooarrogantMy last entry here is dated January 2, 2015.
(Edit: Actually it was November 14, 2016. After posting, I discovered that not all my entries had successfully imported from LJ.)
The sad part is that at the end of that entry I actually made a New Year’s Resolution to journal more regularly. LOL Epic fail!
In his article, Why You Should Write Daily, Leo Babauta says:
I agree. Besides the potential to have a deeper self-understanding, what I discovered while reading past journal entries today was that there’s also a huge entertainment value in having a record of former life events. After reading one work adventure, I even e-mailed a former colleague with the story.
“OMG,” she replied, “I had forgotten all that shit.”
Yeah, me too.
Another benefit is that![[community profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png)
therealljidol is coming back for another Idol Mini season, and I have decided to participate. That’s great because even if I have a total brain freeze and can’t come up with anything to write about, clauderainsrm will gift me with a weekly topic.
Hopefully I’ll be more successful this time than I was with my 2015 resolution.

Writing helps you reflect on your life and changes you’re making. This is incredibly valuable, as often we do things without realizing why, or what effects these things are having on us.
