When I started the Journal You Christmas sessions (this being my first year), I made a secret pact with myself (well, its obviously not secret now as I'm theoretically telling the world!!)
The pact was to keep up to date with each and every prompt. To religiously complete each page on the day it was set. "This isn't a big ask" I told myself. This is your hobby, its what you LOVE to do. Enjoy it!
But over the last few days I've been feeling exhausted after work and completing the pages was becoming difficult. I sat on the sofa last night with 3 pages half completed- which is stupid as I had done all the hard work and only had to crop and stick a few photos. As I sat there trying to force myself to get up I realised that my pact with myself was utter stupidity! Yes, this is my hobby, so I should do it when I want to do it! The realisation was the kick up the bum I needed to actually get off the sofa, heat a mulled wine in the microwave and crack on! All pages now present and complete in my journal and I have re-kindled my creative spark! Wooooo hoooooo!
