This Week's Journal Exercise

In your journal:

What seems to be taking over your life?  Is there something that is preoccupying your thoughts and/or time more than usual or more than you would like?  Why has so much of your focus settled on this?  How would you like to limit your focus on this area?  Where would your prefer your focus to be?  What might be an effective way to adjust your focus?

This Week's Journal Exercise

In your journal:

Make a list of the questions you need answers to?  These may be questions that have bothered you for a long time or new ones?  They may be tough questions about the workings of the world or simple questions about everyday life?  Take one at a time.  Where can you start to look for answers?
