​In the hustle and bustle of our daily lives, it’s easy to get caught up in the chaos and lose our inner thoughts and feelings. In the midst of the noise, the act of journaling emerges as an inspiration of self-awareness and introspection, providing a sanctuary to express our thoughts and acknowledge our feelings. Journal prompts in particular act as gentle guides on this introspective journey, encouraging us to explore the depths of our psyche, confront our desires, and work with our complex emotions. 
Every Sunday iDare will help you delve into the transformative power of Journaling, unpacking the art of self-reflection through the written word. Join us on this journey of self-discovery as we dive into the mind through the simple yet profound act of journaling. 
This week is all about MAKING DECISIONS 
Oftentimes, we are faced with the challenge of making ‘the best’ decision for ourselves at different stages of our life. This can (among various other reasons) come from a place of wanting to ultimately ensure one’s well-being where mistakes/loss/unexpected outcome is avoided. Let’s look at few points that can take you to a place of evaluation rather than pressure. 

Decisions are often fuelled with a motive unique to each individual. What could be a factor of motivation for you? Is it achievement/security/status etc… 
What are the internal dialogues with yourself like when you find yourself in situation that require you to make decisions? 
When making decisions, is the emphasis on ‘what will be’ or ‘How will I feel’ ? 
In which area of your life do you feel that decision-making is tricky? What could be the possible reasons for it? 
Who do you feel inspired by when it comes to being able to make choices in a particular area? What are some similarities or dissimilarities between the both of you. 

 
As you continue your journaling journey, let these prompts be your guide. Embrace the blank pages as opportunities to explore, understand, and celebrate your own existence. 
Remember, it's not just about what you write; it's about the journey you undertake with each stroke of the pen. So, here's to the continued exploration, the unabashed self-expression, and the unwritten chapters waiting to be discovered. Your journal awaits, ready to be filled with the echoes of your thoughts and the whispers of your heart. 
Happy journaling!
