Writing at the end of the day can be a huge stress reliever and even help you sleep better! It’s not always easy just to sit down and write about something random. What do you even write about? Here are a few prompts to help those writing block days:
-
If you could’ve spent this day doing anything in the world, how would the day have gone?
-
If you were a jacket, what kind would you be and why?
-
What are things that happened today that made you happy but you may have overlooked?
-
If you could only keep ten items of your belongings, what would you keep?
-
Regardless of money and talent, if you could do anything for your career, what would it be? Why?
-
What are ten things you could do in your city that you’d enjoy?
-
Create a playlist of songs that make you happy- which ones come to mind? What are you going to name this playlist?
-
What’s your dream vacation? Is it a place? an activity? Who would you want there with you? How do you expect to feel if you can ever have it?
-
Write a letter to your younger self. What advice would you give? What motivation? What would you like to tell yourself?
-
Would you rather spend a month on a boat, a plane, or a spaceship?
Sometimes it can be fun and healthy to give your brain a break from serious things and daydream a little. Journaling can be helpful with that. You can also just write down everything on your mind from the day or for the next day. I often like to create lists for the next day so I’m not worried about it as I’m trying to go to sleep. Hope this helps!
