It's an intro book to a very essential topic

I will boil it down to its basic elements.

Always have a notebook & pen nearby. Then write in it. That's it. The rest is details, like don't write your grocery list, write big ideas like a why you want to change your diet or try a new type of food or...
Jim does a good job telling you what to and not to write in it. He gets side tracked and such but comes back to the point, just do it; carry the notebook everywhere then write when you have idea.
If you think you need a fancy book go for it. If you think you need a fancy filing system you don't. Just leave the first couple pages blank, when you fill it up go back and write in an index.
Ok back to my journal.

Wonderful material

I started a journal a few weeks ago but was lost in certain areas as to how to keep it organized--namely, how to know where to find specifics later on when I had long forgotten where I wrote them. This book solved for that problem and fueled my desire to keep up the journal even more.

It's a must

If this will not change you nothing will change you. Don't be misled by length or "triviality" a the title.

Short but useful

Jim Rohn has some far lengthier programs available, and this is focused only on journals, but but what a difference writing one makes. I have begun mine again after listening to this, because Jim is so persuasive in selling you the benefits of keeping a notebook with you all the time. A diary/ideas book helps give your life meaning and direction, and you become far clearer about your goals and motivations by writing one.
Anyone who has kept one in the past and needs persuading to get back in the habit of writing again will benefit from this tape.
