Do you keep a diary?

Keeping a diary is something that many people do in their teen years as they transition through those turbulent and emotional times.

In adult years however, few keep a diary and it can be so useful as a way of understanding our own growth and personal development. Often the diary is a repository of unresolved feelings but what if you use it for your work or business life.

This post comes from the 4N business networking site:

As a resolution for 2009 I decided to keep a diary but instead of chatting to myself about life I decided to use it as a business diary.

So now I get out the fabbo pad I chose and my fountain pen and 'talk' through how i am feeling about business stuff - things i need to do, things that have gone well etc

It has lead to a lot more getting done, even sometimes putting down the pen and going and doing them right away as well as ideas germinating or getting thoughly pulled apart.

Won't work for everyone but my be worth a try especially if you are a sole trader.

Would be interested in hearing what happens if anyone else gives it a go

What a great idea, use a diary to reflect on your work life as a way of understanding where your personal and business barriers are. It will give you the perspective to deal more effectively with the challenging times that we live in at present.
