End the day wiser than you began.
"When you arise in the morning, think of what a privilege it is to be alive, to breathe, to think, to enjoy, to love" -Marcus Aurelius
Before going to sleep, take ten minutes with your journal and write in three short sections. Keep your writing concise and honest.
First, reflect on what went well today. What successes did you experience? Were these related to your work or your passions? What thoughts accompanied these successes? How were you helpful to others?
Second, consider what could have been done better. Where could you have improved? Which thoughts or feelings occurred during those challenging moments?
Remember to be honest with yourself.
Finally, ask yourself if you lived in accordance with your values today and what did you learn?
