Trying to catch a crane in the sky, not realizing that the tit is his happiness, is in his hands. And that tit doesn't need a lot of money. And all you need to do is to buy a notebook.

Some people will think it's complete nonsense. Others will think they don't need to write anything because they don't complain about their memory. No. No way. Our brain sees and perceives differently on paper. Recorded helps to better organize and clarify their thoughts.

So what do you need to write in your notebook?



#  Write down what you're looking forward to.

People who can dream are happier. Make your plans and" castles in the air", but be sure to write them down. People who are just thinking about an upcoming purchase or vacation, the level of endorphin rises by 27 percent. After all, the most pleasant part of the activity is waiting. And when you need a charge of happiness, just look in the notebook.


# Record your progress.

Whenever you decide to do something, write down your forecast. What you expect to see. After six months or a year, compare the practical result with your expectations. You will see what has changed for the better and for the worse. What should pay more attention, what habits interfere to get the desired result.

Writing down your goals and obstacles in their way, you increase the hope for success. Such records will make you healthier and happier.

Everyone has goals, but few people write them down. Why? Because people are too serious about it and therefore afraid to jinx it. No need to worry. Goals may change, but at the same time, in doubt, they will guide decision-making. 

When identifying opportunities, don't waste time on improving those skills that incompetent. Instead, focus on your strengths. Creating notes about your preferences and experience will help to turn the notebook into a personal reference book. Based on it, you will be able to make more informed decisions in the future.


#  Write down your ideas.

Why did all great people keep notebooks, where they wrote down their thoughts, doubts, decisions? They didn't rely on their memory. They no longer trust the paper. Their work began with brief notes, which, accumulating, splashed into powerful projects.

Any idea? Good or bad, it doesn't matter. Record it. Even if it never comes in handy.


#  Record your worries and doubts.

Written on paper, unlike internal thinking, helps not only to calm down, but even increase productivity. Write down not only your problems, but also a plan how to deal with them. It is possible that the result will be a very different solution. But it (the decision) will already be based on what was recorded.


#  Write down good cases that happen to you.

In the evening, take ten minutes with your notebook. Write down just three things that went well today and why they went so well. They don't have to be epoch-making. But they must be important to you.

Next to each positive development, ask why it happened and give an answer. It will take a few minutes. Just make sure to write.

By rethinking your life events in the past, you can change your behavior in the future.
