Mid-Year Journal Tag 2024 - Extended Version

I forgot to mention, my 'No Buy Challenge' is still going really well. Am finding it really easy to see journals I like in shops and walk out without buying them.
Here are the Journal Tag questions:
1. What journals have you completed this year?
2. How has your journaling been going so far, this year? Have you succeeded in any of your journaling goals if you had them?
3. What was your favourite journal to use this year? Why was it your favourite?
4. Show some of your favourite journal spreads.
5. Have you done anything differently in your journaling in the last six months?
6. Show the pencil case and pens you are currently using.
7. Show what journal you are currently using.
8. Show the journals you want to complete in the next 6 months.
9. What are you looking forward to journaling about later this year?
10. Do you have any journaling goals for the rest of the year?

I love seeing how much writing you do. You are about the only person who writes more than I do! I can’t wait to see what the rest of the year brings for you.

The black journal with the "Tom Marvolo Riddle" names belongs to the Harry Potter Franchise. :) I would love to know how you can fill a journal in a day. I struggle, real hard with my journal slumps. Oh, and Congrats on the success on your No Buy Challenge!

Thanks for your comment and congratulations. Journal slumps can be hard to get out of especially if mental health issues are involved. I wish I had some advice to help. For me January is a slow month activity-wise so it is when I really get stuck into my journal projects. They are usually based on some aspect of psychology so there is a lot of reflecting on my life, behaviour, triggers, trauma etc and because I find psychology so fasinating I write a lot about it in my journals. I can easy spend the whole day writing hense how I can fill a really small journal in a day. I have studied and reflected on attachment theory, polyvagal theory, dysfunctional, abusive vs healthy relationships, family systems, personality types etc and I write about how all of this stuff relates to me, my family, past relationships etc. Some of it is tough to look at but I'm always looking at ways to better cope with things and how to be the best version of me as I can so I find it very rewarding. That is how I write so much. Plus I do my usual journaling too about what is going on in the world and how it effects me.

[@kiwichick1380]

@@StephsAntics It is pretty isn't it. It's the favourite journal I've used this year. Sorry but i won't be doing any more empty journal collection videos as i just have waaaaay too many journals. My last empty journal collection video had to be filmed in 10+ parts. Once I start buying journals enmass again I'll do a video with the new additions to my collection.
