I am returning to the Skool app after I took some time off self improvement and am shocked to see how much it’s grown, I have joined a couple of creators who im interested in and I’ve only just scratched the surface of what this app has to offer. Other than just scrolling reading people posts, how do I get the most out of this app and what do you use it for other than a small bit of inspiration. I find its not benefiting me anywhere near as much as it’s benefiting the people who make posts about their progress and I believe it’s user error

Without this habit, I wouldn't be where I am right now. I would be less happy, less productive, and I would be overthinking more. But I'm not, because I'm journaling. I used to say “I don't need to journal, I only want money”, but I didn't understand how unbelievably important journaling is. So many people on self-improvement cope and say “Journaling doesn’t help me, I tried it!” But have they truly tried it? Probably not -------------------------------------------------- Journaling is basically writing down your thoughts, but let me get into a little bit of detail… You grab a notebook and something to write with. You want to do this on a piece of paper, not on a device. Let me tell you about the different types of journaling: 1. Gratitude journaling This is the most popular journaling method. You just write down things you’re grateful for. “I am grateful for x because y” This is powerful This is so powerful because after journaling every day for a while, you start just being grateful for things. You go for a walk and it feels SO peaceful. You think inside your head: "I am grateful for the nature" "I am grateful that it's sunny" "I am grateful that I have 2 legs to walk in nature, on this beautiful day" It is so wholesome. But it becomes even more powerful when you express gratitude to people (but that's not about journaling, so lets move on) -------------------------------------------------- 2. Reflection journaling This is the type of journaling where you reflect on something. The way you do this: 1) You start writing down what you have on your mind, and what has been bothering you for the past few days. - The reason you do this is because you act emotional when you don’t sit down, write it on paper, and logically think about it. - So you sit down, write it on a piece of paper, and write down a logical solution. 2) If nothing is bothering you, you can write about your goals and what you plan on doing in the future or answer deep questions.

Set goals that people would call you crazy for. That's how big you gotta dream. $10k/m for a 17-year-old (me 2 years from now) is kinda crazy. Did I set that goal? Yeah, of course. In 2 years I will make $10k/m. No excuses. No BS. People would call me crazy and call me names if they saw this. It's just a big goal. A big dream **And I will make it a goddamn reality.**

“Being consistent won’t guarantee that you’ll be successful, But not being consistent will guarantee that you won’t reach success.” That lesson alone is worth so much… Just because it’s SO REAL. THAT’S FACTS RIGHT THERE. Read the quote again. If you are consistent, you won’t have guaranteed success, But consistency is REQUIRED in order to reach success. That’s what the quote tells us. From now on I’ll live by this quote.

Put a lot of work into this one. 30 minutes of pure value (I hope) Check it out and let me know what you think!
