2-Minute Journal Method

Here's a simple technique to build a sustainable journaling habit:

• Set your phone timer for 2 minutes
• Write the first thing that comes to mind
• Keep writing until the timer rings
• Stop immediately when it rings

That's it.

No rules about what to write. No pressure to be profound. No guilt if you miss a day.

Why It Works

The 2-Minute Method works because it eliminates the three biggest barriers to consistent journaling:

• Decision Fatigue: No need to choose what to write about
• Perfectionism: No time to overthink or edit
• Time Pressure: Everyone has 2 minutes
