The Journal-Writer's Guide to Staying Started: A Companion Workbook to the Getting Started, Staying Started Journaling Workshop

With nearly 30 years of experience in journal-writing, Nathan Ohren has compiled a list of activities, prompts, and guided techniques for getting started (and staying started) in the habit of personal writing, whether for its own sake, or as a vehicle for larger goals. Laziness is not the culprit! The reason so many people get complacent and resigned about making New Year's Resolutions is because we often make our goals the way we make our birthday wishes. We have great moments of inspiration, but then have no system for supporting our intentions once our enthusiasm fades. This book provides a simple step-by-step technique for starting new habits, and tapping into the very source of our motivations for keeping those habits alive. Intended as a companion to a 3-week journaling workshop titled "Getting Started, Staying Started" by Nathan Ohren at www.Write4Life.us, this workbook can also be an excellent tool on its own.
