Welcome to JD Dyola Journals ❤™

About Journaling

Hi folks, For those of you who are unfamiliar with the term, Dictionary.com defines a journal as “a daily record, as of occurrences, experiences, or observations.” So journaling describes the action. What’s so great about keeping a journal anyway?

Whether you are a veteran or novice journaler, please keep reading because I’m sharing 11 great posts about keeping a journal that I’m sure you’ll love.

The Benefits

Journaling can help you to keep track of your progress as you work toward your long and short-term life goals. It can remind you of things that you want to include in your schedule, and help to get frustrations out on paper (thereby improving your mood).

There are so many benefits, which several writers have discussed the rewards of in more depth, as you will discover as you read the following posts:

JD Dyola’s Celebration of Life Collection™

Posted on September 22, 2015 | Leave a comment


WELCOME TO JD DYOLA JOURNALS ❤™

Announcing My Life, My Thoughts, My Journal: JD Dyola’s Celebration of Life Collection™!

Last week, as I was tweaking the first 2 books in the 1st series of this new collection, I saw a motivational post on Twitter at #SeptemberShakeUP and I took it as a personal challenge. I was already fired up, but I thought, “What could I do to personally kick things up a notch or THREE?” Well, the idea came to me of releasing 20 new journals, or 5 four-set series’, before the end of the month, September 2015. It sounded good at the time so I put it out there by posting the goal for the world to see. Then I got back to work!

A few times in this process I did think, “Why, did I have to put it out there?!” It has been a rough couple of days, but I did it! And I’ve learned so-o-o much. The 6th series is now complete which means that I’ve actually exceeded my original target. Am I exhausted? Yes! But I also feel exhilarated. Sixteen of the 20 books in the new collection are available now (please use links below) and all 24 will be out before or on September 30th. Please visit the Previews & Updates page for new additions to the Collection.

Now that I’ve accomplished so much in such a short time, it’s hard to go back to my old schedule. I want to keep going!

Fired up,
JD

WELCOME TO JD DYOLA JOURNALS ❤™

 

Most of us know how rewarding it is to write in a journal daily. In fact, there’s a good deal of research available on the benefits. Are you like me, though, and use your journal for everything…as a diary? Until recently, I use to put all my thoughts & experiences into one all-purpose notebook. Now I’ve discovered just how worthwhile it is to have one dedicated tool for different reasons. For instance, a journal exclusively for commentary on what I’m reading or solely for gratitude. Grouping similar ideas, in this way, aids in focusing the thought process, and is helpful for current/future reference.

With those goals in mind, I designed the 4-T™ “for TODAY” Journal Series, a journal series with four books. Each volume serves a different purpose: WIL-T: What I Learned…TODAY is for learning and growth; AWIR-T: About What I Read…TODAY is a reading companion (click here for one journal user’s review of AWIR-T); and WIG 4-T: What I’m Grateful for…TODAY is entirely for gratitude. Nevertheless, at times when you actually want your journal to multitask, the WAW 4-T: The Combo Journal is an excellent option to record what you’ve learned, read, and/or appreciated (see the title page to the left). Please click on each title’s image to get more information about its intended application and advantages.

A tremendous amount of love and energy went into producing them for you. I hope that you will feel that as you use them and make each one your own. Please try them and send me your comments.

Thank you for visiting, and please check out each one of my books while you’re here…er now would be a good time ☺!

Have a great TODAY!
JD
