Entanglements to avoid

BLOG SESSION

August 30th, 2017

Good Evening Diary Writers, Blog Readers, Followers & Visitors ~ We are back for a continuation of our Blog Sessions on daily diary writing tips for all of the Authors, Artists, Poets, Designers, Photographers, Travelers, Journalists, Creative Writers, and all of the Blog Readers here who are interested in keeping a daily Diary that will be beneficial to your well being.

If you are new to our Blog Sessions, you will need to make sure that you Bookmark this Blog, and if you so choose to receive each Blog Session as it is created, then you can look over in the far right column (under my eyeball), and add your complete email address in the area where it says, "Follow by Email".  Then once you've entered in your email address, then simply click the "Submit" button.  You will then receive each Blog Session in your Email box as soon as it is posted.

For the purpose of taking notes for our Blog Sessions here, you'll also need to have a Journal ready so that when you come here for the Blog Sessions, you will be able to take notes.

Journal Notes

Tonight's Blog Session is going to take us further onward with our "Soul Travels of a Diary Writer".  We are on Step Eight, and our topic tonight is Entanglements to avoid.  The header in your Journal for tonight's Blog Session should be just as you see the header here online or in your Email if you Follow by Email.

You'll also need to have a nice Diary that you will enjoy writing in on a daily basis.  If you would like to expand your mission to learn more about yourself, then you may want to invest in a Five-Year Diary.  You may also want to have several Diaries for the various areas of your life if you'd really like to get creative and dig deeper into your interpersonal understanding of exactly what is going on with your emotions, feelings, and any relation to your focus in terms of your life activities.  The communication that you have with your "self" is vital if you'd like to have a life wherein you are aware of your direction.  And, more importantly, why you are heading in the direction you are heading towards.

Five Year Diary

A Five-Year Diary is beneficial if you have a long term goal of making it your business to stay in touch with what is going on with your life from an insider's point of view.  It will be totally up to you when it comes to the style and design of your Diary.  You may want more space for writing, and in that case, you may want to purchase the type of Diary that has filler paper, or use a loose-leaf binder in addition to your Diary, so that you will have extra space to write.

Diary Filler Paper

Five Year Diary (Inside Pages)

Your Diary is personal to you, and whether you choose a Five Year Diary or a Yearly Diary is totally up to you.  Whatever color, style, design, page size, width, and any other inside beneficial information that you may choose, such as Affirmations, or Scriptures, or daily Devotionals that you may desire, the main thing to consider is what feels comfortable and right for you.

Right now, what we are going to do is take notes on our topic of discussion for tonight . . .

Entanglements to avoid

Blog Readers and Diary Writers, there are various entanglements that need to be avoided if you are going to have a life that is less cumbersome.  Since we are here to focus on daily diary writing tips, we are going to gear our minds this evening on getting clear of any and all entanglements in our lives. 

The first thing you need to ask yourself right now is this:  What do you consider to be an entanglement in your life right now?

For the purposes of this Blog Session, consider an entanglement to be anything in your life that acts as a barrier, distraction, irritation, annoyance, hindrance, complication, aggravation, or diversion from your personal goals.

In your Journal, make a list of all of the entanglements that you can think of.  You can break down your list further into the various areas of your life, such as . . .

FINANCES

WORK

PERSONAL RELATIONSHIPS

PEOPLE

HOME

FAMILY

BUSINESS

PAST  CONNECTIONS (people, places, things)

HEALTH 

SLEEP

There are other superfluous items that you may not even think about, but all the same may serve as an entanglement in your life.  Here is a short list of what some of those superfluous items consist of . . .

1)  Long phone calls

2)  Excessive internet usage ~ i.e., looking at Emails,

      videos, reports, etc.

3)  Gossip

4)  Excessive Shopping

5)  Disorganization

6)  Excessive Meetings

7)  Noise and busy activity

8)  Excessive television watching

9)  Any other associations that take up excessive

      amounts of your time

The next thing you need to write down in your Journal tonight is this:  Your time is a valuable commodity.

Now, think for a minute about how you typically use your time.  List the items in your life where you spend most of your time.

Examples:

1)  Work

2)  Children

3)  Elder Care

4)  Business

5)  Hobbies

6)  Organizations/Associations

7)  Health Care

8)  Driving

9)  Enjoyment and/or extracurricular activities

Now that you have some items to work on this evening and tomorrow, when you come back to the next Blog Session, we'll move forward with "How to get untangled".
